What does your username mean?

Born and raised in brooklyn

Potatoes because I was just being playful.. The concept is I like having fun. It lacks a certain amount of dignity but I think it's fun that way.

It's a toy that kids play on. It has no meaning. I chose something totally random. I was watching tv and the characters were talking about a seesaw, so...that's my name. Many people have read into it, which I think is funny. It's literally like I opened the dictionary and picked a word.

It's the last clear thoughI had. Years ago, unfortunately.

It describes me, I am unhinged. Also would like that tattooed on my knuckles one day.

“Love Divine” by Seal. Don’t know why, just love the song. Born in 1966.

I enjoyed reading all of these!!
The Wordshaker is a story within a story in The Book Thief.

The Wordshaker grows a word-tree from her tear and courageously uses it to stand down the evil that is threatening to overtake her world.

I was raised near 8 Mile Road in Detroit, & my initials are M.M., so the "em" is for Eminem. Green is the team color of the college I graduated from. Go State!

We have the same reason, you only explained yours better XD.

I just believe every human being, every living thing, is a mote [a particle] of the greater soul which is the living, conscious universe. Sort of a spiritual thing.

Woah man... That's deep...

Compared to yours I feel embarrassed with mine!

(No double entendre intended.. though it's implied.)

No need to be embarrassed. Even potatoes have souls, haha.

Well it sounded cool is the primary reasoning for my username but if you'd like to go deep then I shall. Celestial represents being god-like (superior) and the flame represents strength, the light in the tunnel. I am the flame that does not waver and provides leadership for everyone to follow when the other flames are snuffed out because they lack the proper strength to fight the wind. An everlasting flame if you will.

I like Medusa. The "X" I just added for no particular reason.

When I joined pc, I knew I needed to “grow,” and I knew it would be an internal fight for me to do so. So it’sgrowtime is a cheesy take on “it’s go time.” Also, I had been using plant and gardens metaphors in counseling.

When I was younger, I had joined a reality tv forum and my name was an aggregate of a show. One of the members I had become friends with said it was too difficult to remember and gave me the nickname "penguin" because it was an animal she liked. It kinda stuck and another close friend I made on the forum would always refer to me as that.

It's so crazy reflecting back on how much that forum helped me when I was going through a hard time and I wonder what those friends are up to now. I've grown so much since then and I'm sure they have too. The whole time, we didn't even know each other's real identities. Yet there was so much support and love. One of them was one of the most important person in my life. She helped me through so much and she was the first person I ever came out to. I do wonder sometimes if I were to dig up her old number and text her, would she respond? but it's been years and even my number's changed several times since then. It is sad that people leave but I gotta thank the universe for that time spent.
