Trip back to Vietnam to visit family

The awesome thing that made me so happy about coming back to Vietnam:

1. Chi Mai and Linh:
I spent most of my time staying with them, giggling, laughing, teasing, making fun of each other. Life never get bored when being with them. We can come up with heaps of crazy things to do together

2. My BFF - Linh Nguyen:
It is such a nice feeling that you have someone accompanied in the day of your IELTS test, who took you for lunch then for drinks then back to the speaking test venue, then drove you home on her little motorcycle. I have to admit that sometimes I rely on this little girl - she always give me a peaceful and happy feeling

3. Chi Thi:
Spending 5 hours with her today, wandering around to buy lipstick and iphone case. She talked non-stop on the way and I recognized one thing: "Face to face conversation is always better than chatting online. You can see the person, you can feel them, you can listen to their thoughts"

Sometimes during our online conversation on Facebook, I was annoyed by her habit of rambling all the time, negative thinking and so much more. But I know she is the "Khau xa tam phat" type. She always helped others enthusiastically. She always ramble because she is so fragile, emotional and lonely. Having known her since university, I have gone through many ups and downs with her to understand how life has challenged her. This girl needs a good man - I think. Time is the best healer, my little girl

4. My childhood friend - Khanh:
I didnt think high of him because he was always naive, inexperienced, too compliant. Not until I met him again this year that all those prejudices disappeared. Khanh now has become a man - being sensible and galant enough to girls, being handsome enough to make a girl's heart fluttered, being caring enough to his beloved friends, being experienced enough to lead our Can Gio trip. It is the first time that I feel I can rely on him at some points instead of teasing and looking down on him for being too naive. Khanh has changed. That's the good sign. But I am worried that when he graduates and starts working as a saleperson in Medicine field, he will lose his dignity, will lose the good traits. I just pray that life wont torture Khanh that make him become bad guy. Please !

5. Duyen - BC:
I was really worried about meeting BC in person again. I asked myself thousands times if I still had feeling for him. There would be no good answer I got to see him again. That day finally came. We hung out in District 7 for Chaos Chicken. We sat there, face to face, but I didnt find my heart fluttered anymore. I guess the story of 3-year unrequited love has finally come to an end. I am blessed that I can get over it - such a relief...

I am still looking forward to more meetup with friends, to see how things go, to see how they have changed after 1 year. Above all, they are the ones that have gone with me through my ups and downs, and I appreciate them for all that help and mental support. I might not have a lover, but friends are everything. And for now, that would be enough :) I am happy with it :)
