"Your name?"
"Zeynep Karataş"
"Okay, sign here."
SIMPLE AS THAT.
None of that who? What? How do you spell that? Zeyda? Zanep?
And sure I love being the chick with the interesting name in the States, but I must admit that I do get a little self-conscious introducing myself. In fact, I dread dealing with it every time I meet someone new. That 2 minute awkward ordeal of correcting a person's mispronunciation..
I am just another Zeynep. And sometimes, that's nice.

I know what you mean, girl. Except people get confused because I'm just another white girl. Not Hispanic, not Black, no strange accent, just white. Its refreshing when I don't have to spell it to people.
Can't wait to see you.
