Am currently addicted to this song... =P

i do realise that i ask wierd questions... not sure if other people ask them too...

like, the other day a bunch of us were hanging around waiting for a movie to start when a friend pulled out a bag of chocolates and popped a white chocolate covered nut into her mouth. It spurred me to turn to Anand and ask, "If chocolate is a color because of the cocoa factor found in chocolate, then what is white chocolate? Isn't it a contradictory term? And if chocolate is brown because it's got cocoa, does white chocolate have cocoa?"

Nobody had an answer for me, but it got me many dirty looks for me trying to screw with their brains just before watching a midnight show.

two days later, i got an sms from Anand. yes, white chocolate has cocoa"

my question has been answered! i am enlightened!

I shall now pose another question that i've been pondering about for a long time from a book, namely Sophie's World.

As you know, parents name their kids a certain name because of the qualities associated with that name. Say i am called Sophie. Would i still be the same person as i am if i were called another name, like Mary? or would my name determine the qualities that i have? That if i were called Mary, i would lose the qualities of "Sophie" and have a different personality from what i am now? Or would i still be "Sophie" regardless of my name being "Mary"?
