I could not help but laughed a couple of times when I was reading Moz’s recent post. And I thought maybe it would be fun to respond to that post :)

For one, there are only 2 Pelfs. Unless you know a third, please let me know about it OK? We never had problems having the same given name when we were younger but as we grew up, our friends started calling us “Pelf” and that was when the confusion began. I remember there was one funny incident that took place not too long ago. This guy called our house and I answered the call and the caller requested to speak to Pelf. I was like, “Speaking.” Then he went on talking about things that I did not really understand. Then I asked him who he was. He told me he was Choon Hoong. OK, fine. So we continued “chatting.” But I didn’t really understand him because we weren’t talking about the same topics at all. Then I asked him who he wanted to speak to, and he said “Pelf.” I had a feeling I didn’t know him and that the phone call was for my sister, so I asked further, “Which Pelf?” to which he replied, “Pelf Yeen.” I was like, “AARRGGH..”

The funny thing is that J’s chinese name is also pronounced as “Choon Hoong.”

So to answer your question, Moz, you may call me Pelf, and my sister, Mei Mei, just like how I call her, OK? *smiles* No more confusion, OK? *more smiles*

Now, before I started blogging, I didn’t really have free time (like you). I mean, I spent ALL my time on work, so I did not really have a life apart from that at work. Sad, I know. But now I have separated a little time from my busy schedule for myself. To blog. And yes, I used to collect stamps but have not been paying much attention to that lately because (a) I have run out of photo albums and (b) I have transferred my attention to my blog instead. Short attention span, I hear you say? Yea, blame the horror-scope :)

Ouh yea, in the interview, there were three questions in Question (2) because you said you ran out of ideas on what to blog about. I was trying to guide you, so you should be thankful and NOT complain about the long response you had to type, OK?! Kkakaka, I know, I sounded like a stepmother *bluek*

OK, so let’s get straight-to-the-point.. You gave MY Beijing Panda Bear to Angel JUST because I FFK-ed you the other day?! NOT FAIR! I want MY Beijing Panda Bear!

And where’s MY birthday present?!

    I get this feeling that I should never ask you to ‘interview’ me haha. Ooo.. When was your bday?

    pelf: Hhaha, you better NOT ask me to interview you because I have already ran out of questions :) BTW, my birthday was on June 1st :)

    pelf: NO, the Pelfs are NOT confusing..

    it’s like how a cousin and i have the same last name and our middle chinese name is almost the same (she’s mei ik, i’m wen ik - sounds the same when called from afar). so during any get-togethers with relatives calling us by our chinese names, we BOTH tend to turn together or answer wrongly. *lol*

    pelf: Which reminds me that there are 4 of us in the family who have the SAME given name, in Chinese.. My sister and I are “Pelf XXXX”, both my cousins are “Paik XXX” :)

    Gah !!! Tarah paham kah ?? *whacks forehead*

    OK. I bought 3 Beijing Panda Bears:-
    One is now with my dearest sister.
    Second is with Angel.
    Third is for you. But I’m keeping it with me.

    pelf: OK, OK.. Janganlah marah..

    And well, I guess the Beijing Panda Bear becomes the birthday present too =)

    pelf: CANNOT! The Beijing Panda Bear is because you think I am nice - you mentioned this in your blog, right? Birthday present MUST be another present.. Kakkaka :))

    Tell you what, mail me your snail mail address. I’ll mail it to you instead. *Bluek*

    pelf: Now you make me look like a desperado.. Nevermind, I’ll thicken my skin and email you my address *winks*
