Where do I begin?
To introduce myself, My name is Julia but I prefer Julie. This was because when I was little my mom and her best friend had a deal that whoever was born first could take the name Julia and the second born could be named "Julia" as well, but people had to call them Julie. Why did my mom make this deal? I have no idea-- I don't even like the name Julie but no one will turn back and call me Julia. Pretty sad I know but I got over it years ago.
