The reason why I choose an American name!

Most students in Cesl call me Jeannie. It's my American name. Most of them don't know my real name. My nick name is "Vang" and my real name is "Trang". Atually, I always like my nick name (Vang). I always use it when i email my family.

In my family, every one calls me "be Vang". It means "a little piece of gold". I am a youngest sister. Although i am aldult, my family always call me that. I am happy about that. The reason which my parent gave that name to me is I am the little girl who my parents love most. Except that name, I wish my friend and people who know me call me "Trang" as people in Vietnamese call me that.

In fact, In the US, It's not easy to call and remember my name. That's the reason why I have an American name now.

During the summer term, I had some friends from Taiwan and China. When we talked each other, I told them my name is "Trang". Nobody asked me spell or write my name so that in their mind my name is "Jean" or "Jeng". I didn't know about that. Once my friend called me but the call was failed. He wanted to confirm my cell phone number so that he show the cell phone number and my name. It's "Jean". I got surprise but I didn't say any thing. In addition, when I came to the class, Eric, my class mate told me: "I always forget your name!". At that time, I decided to choose an American name in order to remember it easily. And I change "Jean" to "Jeannie" to make it lovelier.

What do you think about it? Actually I really really would like every one can call and remember my real name !!!!

I cannot forget the day I create this weblog

I ran to my class because i thought i would have a quiz at that time. Finally, I was surprise when Julie, my core teacher, talked about her weblog and then she guided us how to make a weblog by ourself. It is not difficult at all!!!!!!!!!!!!
