We both burst out laughing and soon the nickname stuck. At first, I was hesitant to use it in public or with people I didn't know well. But as I grew more comfortable with it, I realized that it was a way to embrace my cultural heritage and make light of the stereotypes surrounding Asian names. Plus, it was just plain funny. Whenever a teacher called me by my nickname during role call, the whole class would erupt in giggles. Even now, as an adult, I still introduce myself as Gege to close friends and family members. But my nickname isn't just a silly joke. It's also a testament to my ability to find humor and joy in everyday situations. Life can be tough, but finding little moments of laughter can make all the difference. So to my fellow Gege's out there, don't be afraid to embrace your unique names and find humor in the quirks of life. After all, life is too short to take ourselves too seriously.
