And my name is 'D'...

It's been a while since I write my blog. It's because I was sick.............with the Bieber fever. Ok, it's a lame joke (I copied it from Ryan Higa though. He's my youtube idol. TeeHee). Ok, now lets get back to what I suppose to blogging about. I feel like composing a new post when I came across this one particular article. It really caught my attention. Because it had something to do with me; with my name. Owh, I guess my name is quite known since it came out in an article. But no actually - it doesn't have to do with my name but it does have to do with my first initial name. Huhh??

This is the original article entitled : People with the first initial "D" have the shortest life expectancy. 
And I was like s*** what the hell? I mean how can someone's name determine whether they're gonna live long or the other way round? I don't think it makes sense at all. (But I think it does at some points). Anyway, here are the reasons (which I simplified from the text) why it does makes sense a bit.

Having a name beginning with "D" contributes to poor self-esteem

• Ds constitute a poor achievement based on school grading system 
• "A" symbolizes the best whereas  "D" is regarded as almost a failure
• Poor self-esteem lowers a person's defense against diseases
• Those with name beginning with E to Z were described as 'grade irrelevant'
• Those whose first name began with 'D' lived, on average, shorter lives than those whose names begin with E to Z

Here's another article : A first name beginning with 'D' could wipe 10 years of your life

Briefly speaking, those with initial A name are the one who live the longest just because their name is A and according to American School Grading System, A symbolizes the best. Sounds not bad uh... What claptrap!!

Well, maybe I indeed have a poor self-esteem but so what, it doesn't have anything to do with my initial name. Which are 'D' both for my first and second name, for God's sake! And guess what, sooner I'll graduate and extra 'D' will be added to my name. And that will make me a 'triple D'. Does that mean that my life will be shorten by 3 fold?

 Anyway, good job to the psychologists or the researchers or what-so-ever that had succeed to come out with such a great research that I don't even care about (actually I do). Enough with this gibberish post, I'm going to take bath ^_^

P/S: One thing I couldn't agree more is that names can influence major life decisions. For example, people with the name Lawrence are more likely to be lawyer while Denisses are over-represented among dentists. So no wonder I choose to be a MD. Daphne is 'D' and Doctor is 'D' too. They're matching, no?
