English names ( Part 2 )

After I published the previous post, I had an interesting MSN conversation with a friend of mine. It went as follows:

Friend: Hey I like your blog post.

Me: Thanks!

Friend: Can I ask you a question?

Me: Yea of course, shoot.

Friend: Dawn is a girl's name?

Me: Yes.

Friend: Oh dammit.

Me: What happened?

Friend: I sent in an application to a company to apply for work.

Me: So?

Friend: They sent me back a letter, signed by "Dawn Yap".

Me: Then what's the problem?

Friend: I replied: "Dear Mr Yap".

Me: HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

This shows the great importance of reading my blog before making any important decision in life.
