HELLOOOOOOOOO DARLINGSSS! I bet you guys miss me like hell! Hahaha. I've been to Dong Nai for holidays during the past four days. So sorry i couldn't post a goodbye on my blog before i go, because everything is so rushed! I remember i just had enough time to check my mail and pack my bag and then went to stay the night with my colleague, didn't even had time to say goodbye to those who care. And silly ming hui still thought i was kidnapped! HAHAH. On friday, i was off to Dong Nai! I remember i only managed to get around 3hrs of sleep and was on the motorbike early in the morning at 4am to get to get to their aunt's house to ride to Dong Nai. The ride there was so damn colddddd can! The morning wind just blow past me and even at 4am, the traffic here is already similar to the traffic conditions at 6am in singapore! I can't believe people here actually wake up so darn early!!!Anyway, its quite weird because its like i'm the only stranger going with their WHOLE family. And i'm quite paiseh actually. But their family is all veryyyy veryyyy nice to me. They bring me around even though their hometown has practically nothing much to do at all. But they still bring me to eat their local food. So sad i didn't take the pictures because my handphone ran out of battery. During the1st day of my stay there, i had barbeque pork broken rice at 9am in the morning; had green bean soup at 10am; had lunch at Nghia's house at 12pm; Bun Biao (a local food in Vietnam made of rice) at 4pm; coconut ice cream at 4.30pm (its ice cream in a real coconut shell wth coconut frut!) and dinner at 6pm. I ATE SO MUCH! All made of flour even! I think what i ate for the 1st day is already what i can eat for around 4 days!On the 2nd day, i went to Nghia's girlfriend, Man's house. Her name is pronounced as the hanyu pinyin Meng2. Her family and her is so hospitable, i feel so welcome there. Their meals were great and the bed is great! LOL. The elders there love me very much because they think i'm such a polite and nice girl! HAHA. See how i can catch the heart of old people, too bad i cannot catch the heart of guys. How sad. Just joking. I experienced their local lifestyle there; helping to pluck mangos from the mango tree using a bamboo pole; and helping to cut the jackfruit and cleaning it. We also had a mini bbq there. In these 2 days, i learnt quite alot of vietnamese. Haha. My colleagues all praise me when i speak SOME vietnamese to them. Ahem, here comes the highlight of my post. I FINALLY RIDE A REAL MOTORBIKE! Actually its only for like 15min. Lol. And my colleague is at the back supporting me so i don't have to worry about balancing myself. Haha. And i reach a decision. I decided that i'll be better off taking public transport in singapore. Motorbike is scary! Yet, i still like to ride on them especially when its fast! So i'll get a boyfriend who can ride motorbike; and a husband who can drive a car! So pro right? HAHA. At night, i chatted with Man about her relationship with Nghia. She told me alot of her love stories. I didn't know that Nghia is so romantic. And their relationship is so deep it really touches me. I once loved a guy like that too. But i didn't get a happy ending. I'm glad she did, so happy for her. I also gave her some ideas for her wedding in October. I'm sooooo sad that i couldn't attend her weddin because school already started at that time and i'll be back to singapore.On the 3rd day, i went back to Nghia's house and spend the day with his sister, Tri. We watch "Fated to love you" the whole day. The plot is so touching, its just like any cinderella story. Its every girls' dream, i'm a girl too. Nghia's parents always complain i eat too little. But the truth is i have a weak stomach and i think my stomach has become smaller. Yes, i think so. I only reach the villa in Ho Chi Minh at 12am at night, and by the time i rush through my periodic report, its alrdy 2am. So tired at work today i almost fall asleep.I have some pictures to share, but i'm so lazy to post them up now. Maybe i'll post it next time. Today, went to dinner with dear Loan. We talked so much about our love problems and i realise i've actually grown up. In the past, I would choose love over family and friendship. But now, its the other way round, i would choose family over anything. I'm a family girl now. And it makes me glad that i came for this attachment because now then i know how much my family means to me. Loan and me chatted for 3hrs in the coffee shop, had such a nice chat. She kept encouraging me to pursue my happiness. But i guess it'll all be over when i go back to singapore. JIAYOU ELAINE!Hmmm.. I was so happy when i reach my villa yesterday night. Know why? Because there is NO ants in my room! And no cockroach! So happy, i kept praying on the ride home that i won't have to clean up the rodents mess because i have no energy for it and i've got a report to rush. I think my prayer is heard. Hahah. Heard that singapore has already taken action towards the swine fly pandemic. Its good that singapore is taking precautions, because Vietnam hasn't taken any action yet. Hope that my friends and family will all take good care of themselves because i love all of you so much. Take careeeessss!This is a long post, so thanks for reading til the end.
:)I saw clara's blog today. Actually just wanna tell her i really do miss her so much. And she should just tag in my shoutbox if she visit my blog. Even if i didn't mention her in my blog, she's in my heart all the time. I miss the happy times we had. Our friendship road had not been an easy one, and i really believe true friendship will prevail. The me now, would choose friends over him anytime. And one of my close friends would be her. The way she say about the distance between us and the fact that its hard to maintain really hurts. Because i never thought about the distance. Isn't it the heart that matters when it comes to any relationship?
