So you may be wondering, "Who is this girl? She's never blogged before in her life, apparently she dances, but why in the world is her name Jillbert?..Is that her real name?" (and in your head you're thinking "I sure hope not!")
Well yes, this can be a bit confusing I'm sure, but no worries, I will explain. The nicknames I have received in my life have been...well lame. Jilly Bean, Jill-O, Jillian (hate that one! please don't ever call me that), Jillium, Peanut butter and Jilly, oh and the sudden burst into "Jack and Jill went up the hill..." - that's a fun one. Well anyway, these nicknames have failed to bring me happiness and really I would just rather be called Jill.
However, last year I took a clogging class. Funnest class ever and my clogging teacher was hilarious! I think he let us have too much fun sometimes, but I'm ok with that:) So one day he randomly decided to call me Jillbert. I don't know if he was going for Dillbert from the comics or something, but that's what came out. And it stuck. I mentioned it to my roommates one night and they found it funny. After a while each of them started calling me Jillbert. The trend has spread to friends at work, people in my dance classes, and even my little sister.
I love it! Honestly it makes me so happy, even enough that I label all my food in the fridge with it:)
-I almost signed a check with it the other day though...oops I gotta be careful with that one
