alright. today is the official start of the 30 day challenge. today's task is for me to tell everyone in internet world of 5 nicknames i've had. that seems really boring, so i will mabey tell you some stories of how these names came to pass.
1. EF-EX. this was one of the first nicknames i had. it originated from me and a few friends making movies called "The Dork Club" and we each had nicknames in the movie that we would go by. so mine was EF-EX. short for special fx. so while filming if we required a seen of a blizzard we might have two of our actors on camera, meanwhile i am off camera throwing snowballs and making a "Whhhooooooshhh" noise. and we never kept secrets from our audience/ ourselves, so of course, the camera would pan over and show me doing this.
2. Tank. this name was given to me as a freshman in high school. during football practice one of the seniors gave me the name, "because i moved like a tank" steady and unstoppable. that's right, i'm a Bad-A. this nickname however only lasted about 2 months.
3. Coach. this nickname also came from football. as i progressed through high school my size made it hard for me to compete physically with the other players. but for what i lacked in size, i made up for in brains. i always had the answers the coaches wanted, so he decided to call me coach.
4. Chan. this came from me being lazy. i grew up always being called by my middle name, Justin. but in high school i decided that i actually liked my first name, and didn't like being in a class every time known as Justin C, because you know, Justin is just super original nowadays. so i began going by Sterling. however, this confused a crap ton of people who have known me since before this change. so some of the ladies liked calling me Chan, from Chandler. my last name. and now everyone is confused.
5. Charmandler. this one is obviously a combination of my last name and one of the coolest pokemon ever. pikachu. na i'm just kidding, it's not pikachu. it's charmander. and if you don't know who that is you can get a life. NERD! i got this name cuz i can straight up breath fire.
