What's in a Name?

Last month when i was oncall, an actor came and brought his wife to the hospital.

The wife said "Dr, u look young. How old r u?"

The remark is actually not surprising as i usually get that especially when i'm oncall. Dunno if it's a good thing cos sometimes i feel that they don't trust me enough cos i look young. But i like to see the surprise on their faces especially when i tell them that i'm married with a child.

Anyway, after examining the wife, i had a different kind of response. And this time it was from the husband.

He asked, " So ur name is Dr E***? Isn't that a guy's name?"

Ok, it could have been a good pick-up line except that the wife was sitting right beside him :-)

So i just said "Yes, but when combined with S*****, it is a feminine name."

But how do u actually respond to this kind of question?

I have no idea..


Anyway, just finding a topic to update.. I'm oncall today n on sunday. Hope i can sleep well at nite. Planning to take rayyan out jalan2 tomorrow..

Also planning to go to Singapore for the Great Singapore Sale this month.. Gonna shop till i drop..

Heheh, what to do, your name IS a guy's name. Luckily our middle name is feminine-like & there's a binti somewhere in there too. Kalau after all that pun they are still confused abt your gender then tak tau la apa nak kata lagi :D

Kat sini kekadang I'm Miss Binti, sbb nama pnjg sgt so diorg amik binti tu as my surname. Jenuh nak explain kat mat2 salleh ni that binti=daughter of.

The Great S'pore sale?? Nak ikut!!!
