If you dont, here goes it :
My awesomely wonderful mother and father wanted a boy to make their family "perfect", apparently (this is according to my sister and i dont trust her one bit cos she probaly just wanted to make me feel like i wished i was never born. grr).
But instead, all they got was lil ol me (aww crud! =p).ANYWAY. So mum wanted to name me Alison *cringe. (So ewww cos its so not me!) but she wasn't allowed to name me cos she had already named my sister...
*pause*
Inside voice : i blame my MOTHER for my sister behaving like a "princess" and treating me like her god damned slave. WHY is it mother's fault? cos freaking 'Stephanie' means crowned one and mother named her that! :P grrr..
*play*
So it was my dad's turned to name me.. oh btw, if i had been a boy they would have named me Adam. Quite a nice name. I think my son's middle name shall be that.
Anyways. They were at a a loss to name me. So the night i was born, papa and his brother went to a pub to celebrate me being born (i hope!) and [This was what was told to me ok!] my dad or uncle who knew the bartender told the bartender about me being born and being nameless and then the bartender told the house band that night who played the song "Gimme Hope Joanna" by Eddie Grant for papa and thus, i was named.
The song Gimme Hope Joanna is actually about Johannesberg in South Africa. =) And this is what my names means and all the bla bla bla :D

1.The most sincere, goodhearted, and gorgeous girl to grace the world with her lively presence. Some say she resembles Rachel Weisz but in actuality Weisz would never be able to reach the pedestal of beauty that Joanna sits atop of.
2. Pretty much the most awesome person you can ever hope to meet. Be weary though, Joanna is a complete badass and is known to carry either a nine or a gat with her at all times - for protection from other jealous rival badasses and if she just feels like being a thug and robbing a liquor store or grocery for the hell of it.
- hahha yes me the badass! :D -

the prettiest girl in school. She is smart and beautiful. She is not rich but she does have money. you will never see her in anything except hollister, American eagle, or aeropostale. she is the prettiest girl in the class and she knows it. But she doesn't act like a bitch about it and even talks to the geeky kids. Everybody loves her and wants to be like her. The only people that don't like her are the snobby girls that are jealous. All the boys like her. They all joke with her and think she is cute.
- if i were perasan enough, i'd highlight the last part, but i leave that for you people who knew me in high school to judge. ;) -
Anyways. You know what, the point of this entry was just to say something simple about the song that i was named after but THIS is what it's ended up as. haha. typical jo =)
anyways. all i wanted to say was this :
If Joanna is busy giving hope to everybody, who's there to give joanna hope?
Note ; Gimme hope, Joanna Gimme hope, Joanna Hope before the morning come
