Oh right, I forgot to mention our names. Well, since I don't want to use our exact names, I'll use my nickname and for my neighbour, I'll use something similar to his name.

My neighbour: Charlie ( close enough )
Me: Star

You're probably wondering why I have Star as my nickname, right? Well, my name is a Chinese name, and since the first part is Xin, and in Chinese "Xing Xing" means Star, so, the name was close enough, and BAM my friends either call me Xin or Star.

As for my neighbour, giving him the false name Charlie is close enough, since his name starts with "C".

Fine, fine. You're probably wondering what our real names are. I'll say it just this once:

My neighbour: Colin
Me: Xin Yu

I told you that my name's a Chinese one!
