Why Not? Name that feels?
Zaria’s favourite phrase now is “Why not?”
Zara : Zaria, don’t colour on jiejie’s book.
Zaria : “Why not?”
While I’m working,
Zaria : Mummy, I want to sit on your lap.
Me : No, mummy is working.
Zaria : “Why not?”
Daddy : This is your last chocolate already, you cannot have any more.
Zaria : “Why not?”
o.O”
Zaria was digging out books from the shelf in the study, and have those books strewn all over the floor. Before she went down stairs (and out of the room), I told her, “Zaria, you took the books out and scattered them on the floor, you must clean up before you go downstairs.
“I’m not jiejie, ok.” She replied while walking out of the room.
o.O”
(and it’s the case in the house, Zara will clean and tidy up but Zaria always ‘designate’ to Jelly or just refused by saying “I cannot.”).

Yesterday, just out of the blue, Zara said, “Mum, I don’t like my name you know. Why do you call me Zara?”
Me : *a bit surprised* “Zara is a beautiful name, why don’t you like it?”
Zara : “I want a name with feelings.”
o.O” Can some one please tell me what is a name with feelings?
Me : “What do you mean a name with feelings? What kind of names would you like to be called”
Zara : “How about Shanika?”
o.O” Where did she get that name from? Anybody knows if any princesses in Disney or Barbie show which is called Shanika?
What feelings come with the name Shanika? Sound like an actress name.
Haha…kids nowadays..talking like grown up.
Shanika sounds special, but I don’t get that feeling when I say that name out loud though. Don’t know what ‘feeling’ she’s talking about.
Zaria is such a smarty pants now ey? And zara? Her imagination is bountiful!
try calling zara Shanika for a few days..n see her reaction.. or that could end up as a pet-name …LOL
err dunno what’s shanika
i like rachel’s suggestion. hopefully she will soon realize that the name Zara has more feeling then Shanika!
Zaria just my Yang. Everytime end up Jie Jie have to tidy up everything for him, without complaints. But usually daddy won’t allowJie Jie totidy up by herself, he will “force” Yang to help too. Yang… cried loh and said “he can’t because too many toys or books to clean!”
