Re: Where did your username come from? -

Way, way back in the day, when I was first getting into video games - and this is before we even had internet at my town, yikes - I needed to name a main character and wanted to come up with something cool and original. After kicking a few options around, I came up with the name Xujhan. To this day, I've used it for everything. Anywhere I go on the internet, I'm Xujhan. And any time you see a Xujhan on the internet, that's me. I'm the only one. Also, I've yet to have a single person guess its pronounciation correctly, either on the net or in person, and dozens have tried.
The atoms that make up you and me were born in the hearts of suns many times greater than ours, and in time our atoms will once again reside amongst the stars. Life is but an idle dalliance of the cosmos, frail, and soon forgotten. We have been set adrift in an ocean whose tides we are only beginning to comprehend and with that maturity has come the realization that we are, at least for now, alone. In that loneliness, it falls to us to shine as brightly as the stars from which we came.

Simple...I'm addicted to coffee lol. I was UndeservingOfYourSympathy when I really liked My Chemical Romance, but I don't listen to them anymore and it was just too long!
Who do you carry that torch for, my young man?
Do you believe in anything?
Or do you carry it around just to burn things down?
Meet me tonight on the turnpike my darling,
where we believe in everything.
If we sweat all these debts then we're sure to drown,
so let's strap ourselves up to this engine now
with our God who we found laying under the back seat.

I was deedlit shadow before the site reset. I was actually about to change it back to that, but then HL came back and I wanted to be mentor asap so didn't change it. But I Miss being deedlit shadow
deedlit shadow came from my runescape name (which I'm not going to say here in case a certain friend googles it), and that in turn came from a game/anime Record of Lodoss War. Deedlit is blonde (like me) and sexy and magical (unfortunately not so much like me ).
So ther eyou go. And I don't know where shadow came from, I just thought it sounded cool. Although a variation on that was my Guild Wars (lol I played that for about a day Janos) name - Deedlit Thunder.

I was very close with a boy for a while as a friend and we had several inside jokes. He called me cupcake as a pet name. We had a parting when he used some harsh words with me that really hurt me, but I keep the name cupcake.
Loved him very dearly. It's almost an 'in memory of' thing.

Mine is kinda a depressing story.
It's because I came to a [false] realization like two weeks ago, and I [falsely] realized that I was no longer a person. I was a name. A face in the Crowd. A shell of a girl, eaten away by lies and hate. And when I started cutting again, that just made it worse.
So I'm JustAmelia. A Nothing. A No one. I'm not even me.
PS. Yah, Amelia is my name. ;] Just in case you didn't know... haha jk.

Mine's kinda lame xD I was thinking of a name, but I was upset at the same time, and I looked in the mirror and I just looked so desperately stupid that I actually laughed at my own face... so I thought, why not? xD
My old one was kind of depressing though, 'SeepingBlood', you can guess why I chose that, lol.

I am a baseball addict (no one here knows anything about it ) and my favorite player, Jimmie Foxx, had a nickname Double X which I thought was really cool. When I played call of duty 2 in middle school my user was always double x because of that, and I liked it. It's been my internet 'name' wherever I go now...

The musical chord, and the fact that is my name on another site, and I forget things to easily so I made it simple and kept it haha.
If you took a chisel, and cracked yourself open
Letting light into the corners of your mind,
Peering inside your soul,
What would the world find?
Deep on the inside, where all your hopes happen,
All your hidden dreams die
Smiles that never happened? Tears you meant to cry?
