I have a Chinese name!

My ABC friend (American-born Chinese -- which I think is actually intended as an insult) told me that it would be a good sign if my coworkers gave me a Chinese name. I arrived at work today to find a little sign on my door that read:

側田

( Jut tin )

Apparently it's the name of another ABC person named Justin Lo who is an NY-born singer that is quite popular here in HK. I amazed my coworkers because I actually already knew who he was we discussed all the rumors that he wears hats because he is really bald. He's kinda cute for a filthy stinkin' ABC ... (just kidding -- I've only adopted the local prejudice against the Chinese mainlanders, but not the foreign born ones ... yet).

Things are improving -- gradually. They're also trying to teach me how to say "have you eaten breakfast yet?" but it's incredibly hard to say.
