Blessed and Fortunate
Growing up as a little girl, there's always something important to you, whether it's your pink bow tied dress or your fluffy white socks. My name meant the world to me. The origin of Fartun came from the word Fortunate, which means lucky in Italian. It was a part of who I was, and it still is. I was always being tyrannized because of my name. There were times in my life when I wanted to change my name or at least change the spelling, yet my name is extremely valuable to me, My great-grandmother gave it to me. But I was unsatisfied with my tag, because of the way it was pronounced. There were couple of years in elementary school that I was bullied. The fifth grade was the most excruciating school year. A classmate of mine would always call me “Fart-Tune. She has a Fart in her Tune.” I would laugh on in the outside but slowly break down in the inside. My name was my identity, it showed others where I came from, and it also described my personality.
