i don't have a digital camera yet, but i've got some photos that i'll take to my friends place to scan.
i don't look asian, but i don't look fully german either, so when i speak canto to my mates people just look at me strangely

actually, my friend has a picture of me..

winston ah, there's also stroke recognisation input... you gotta know the strokes and stroke order - which means you need to know how to write... damn

it's not that hard to learn how to write..
i can write chinese much faster than using that crappy pinyin thing

its quite easy. im not exposed to it that often. my culture and my school, the people around me speak english or we speak slang stuff, but chinese i only need to use it out on the street occasionally...otherwise i have no use for it here.
