Oooogre.

This is an email sent to me recently:





You see my name as an addressee in the email, but you don't see it in the cost tabulation table right??!! 'Cause I am Princess Fiona. -_______________-


I have mentioned here why my colleagues call me Fiona! To recap: someone commented that I look like Fiona Xie (a Singaporean celebrity), and my colleagues found it SO funny that they call me Fiona... and the name stuck on. T___T


At first it was just two of my colleagues, Calvin and Shenton, who are total idiots, who started the name-calling wtf. But soon, the whole department knows about it, and everyone refers to me as Fiona! -__- And the best part is, I am so used to it, I actually respond to the name. T__T


In fact, once my manager overheard a colleague calling me Fiona, and she asked me, "Hmm, your English name is Fiona? I didn't know about that! Should I call you Fiona from now onwards?"
And I had to come up with some lame excuse about her hearing wrongly and quickly run away. T_T


And of course, there are many versions of 'Fiona'-esque names that came about. There was once I was sitting quietly doing my work, when my colleague next to us dialled the extension of another guy just sitting across us to ask him for lunch. And they said, right in front of me, "Eh, ask Shrek's wife whether she wants to come along too!" -______-


But I am super sporting la. Accepted my fate already WTF. For instance, there was once I nearly got banged by a car whilst crossing the road (due to my low agility and acute blurness wtf), and my colleague nagged me, "Fiona!! Don't know how to cross roads is it!"
To which I mumbled, "Sorry la, they never teach in ogre school". And everyone threw their heads back in delight wtf.
Haiihh why do I always attract people to laugh at me. T_T



In fact, 'Fiona' has became somewhat a legend WTF. Whenever I say something blonde, or trip over a step, or something idiotic like that, my colleagues will go "That's so Fiona!" or "Eh, don't Fiona me la!" hahahahahah.


During our department lunch in this cozy Italian restaurant, we had awesome chocolate chip cookies along with our coffee. And somehow, the boss came over and gave me a small plate of extra cookies! *shy* And someone went: That's the Fiona charm. Hahahha.


Haihhhh, how la people. I am always not that keen to get an English name (despite countless people egging me on to get one), 'cause I feel that Hui Wen embodies ME. But now apparently Fiona does as well. -__-

The only thing I can do is to make sure that the the Princess Fiona reference to me is before her transformation into an ogre WTF.
