Uncle

I never liked to be addressed as 'uncle'. Makes me sound really old. Soon, I'll be the uncle of the sixth kid. My goodness! Just the thought makes me feel old. ;( It makes it worse when my sis' kids greet me cos I am the 舅舅 (old old in mandarin). Even at work, I would make my little patients call me 'gor gor' instead of uncle. Then I would point to my colleague who is like a few years younger and tell them to greet 'auntie'.
