Time flies as I am writing this. 

Woo LaLa~!! COOL!! FUN!!

Very soon, in exactly another 2 weeks (on 1st April), FooFangPu.com will be 1 years old. This is FooFangPu 1st Anniversary.

Why you chose to register on April Fool (aka All Fools’ Day)?

Yup, I did it on purpose. I told my registar that I need my domain to create on 1st April.

It’s just another stupid lame reason, just like the reason I LoVe LV.

Back in my school day, I remember that my surname (Foo) has alway been use as a joke among friends. They will add a L after it, and spells as FooL (with the almost similiar pronouncation.) Soon, I think is numb.

Cause with the same starting alphabet A – Alvin and April, I start to link April Fool (AF) with Alvin Foo (AF) and  labelled AF Day as my day myself. dotz!!

(… long story …) Then, after last year CNY, I have decided to have my own domain. At that time, I was thinking and looking for a suitable and sigificance date for register my domain. 

06 Oct is still a long way ahead. 01 Apr is just nice, for me to prepare, ‘renovate’ and move. Also, is my AF day.

Why you use FooFangPu, instead of CoolFun or AlvinFoo as your domain?

Reason is simple. I want to have an international domain (.com), both CoolFun and AlvinFoo have been taken. Although, I tried to email the owner for permission to buy over. But they like to keep it.

In fact, I like my chinese name (符芳圃) Foo FangPu. I find it quite unique.   

However, back to my school day again, my chinese name is used as a joke too. They will never pronounce it correctly. Either FangPuuu or FangPoo (sound like fart). Only those chinese teacher, or people with better chinese will pronounce my chinese name nicely.

Since then, I start to use my english name to intro myself. 

Back last year, I start to know more chi-na friends. They can pronounce my chinese name nicely and find it quite unique too.

Hence, I decided to use my chinese name (符芳圃), and register it as my own domain name.

Actually, I prefer friends to address me with my chinese name (provided with correct pronouncation).

Meanwhile, I am super busy with my work, study, friends. And right now, I am working with a production house on a feature film. Stay tune for this week, more updates will be coming soon.
