• profileWelcome to Caramel Toffee, my colourful multi-themed personal blog. I'm Adlina, your average girl in her early twenties. I'm a TESOL student studying in the University of Auckland, 3rd year as of 2009. I can be serious, humourous, and sometimes even very solitary. I'll voice what I want to as well as what I couldn't say out loud in this blog.I'll throw in some creative musings and whatnot every once in a while too.
  • Also, read my new blog in Malay (rojak, kinda) @ ini-aku.com :3

QotD: Also Known As…

What other names did your parents consider for you?

Hm… My name is Wan Intan Adlina. My name is supposed to be Wan Adlina, though my parents also considered something along the lines of Izzara andAkmaliza. Adlina (Adl) means justice in Arabic. Since I am the only girl in the family, Mama wanted to call me Intan (which means ‘diamond’ in Malay) at home even though my name would not have ‘Intan’ registered. She wanted to call me ‘Intan’ as some kind of pet name for me.

So the day my Papa went to register my name, my Mama thought my name would be registered as ‘Wan Adlina’. When he returned, though, she said she was more amused than surprised when she saw that he registered me as ‘Wan Intan Adlina’.
