Weekend -- Shopping and Huntington beach

This weekend, I have spent a lot of money for shopping hehehehe in order to preparing my next week trip in Seattle ^^. Oh!! I am so happy about that hohohoho.

On Friday night my shopping campaign was begun with a cutie Guess shoes. Then, we (my brother, my sister in law and me) went out for dinner at 9:00 pm. Every weekend we have a crazy time line. We stay up late at night and will not wake up until the lunch time of the next day so that every weekend we just have 2 meals per day instead of three like the week days.

But, this Saturday was an exception. We woke up sooner at 9 for the shopping campaign ^^because Macy had a one-day sale program. I have been very satisfied with Macy kakaka. I bought one Roxy bikini and one O’Neil short with a good price. Then, we went to Circuit city, Ritz camera, Irvine Market place to look for the camera and camcorder. Right after finishing the lunch at Sam Woo restaurant, we went to Costco and came back home at 5. I could not believe that we spent almost all day for shopping – eight hours – can you believe that? My legs were totally exhausted. However, I felt relax and happy by spending time with my sister and brother.

Today, Sunday is an excited day. We planned to wake up late this morning but a stupid car of some stupid man howl out loud outside at 9 and woke us up. Hum..A bit angry becoz of that … however, we had a interesting plan today that is a trip to Huntington beach hehehe. We had KFC, Coke. Sun-bathing fully stretched out on the beach is the most interesting thing ^^ oh I love beaches!! I prefer Huntington beach than Corona Del Mar which I visited last month with ALP. because Huntington beach have a bigger sand-bank.

After enjoying the sunshine, it was time for duty ^^. That is car washing ^^

We came back home around 6 and my brother cooked the Japanese Misu soup for dinner.

What a wonderful day is!

my writing

Oh God!! I forgot that I still have one journal. even it was late but I still want to post it on.
My writing is getting better now, I think. At the beginning of this semester, I can even write something in English because I afraid of wrong. Then, with the pressure that Vanessa gave us ^^ I am improving. I love to write journal but in Vietnamese. I have another blog in Vietnamese and I write every day. I love writing so I will continue this blog hehhe.
Last week, I send more English email than ever. I send to my Uncle who lives in Seattle. I send to my sister who lives in Canada. I send to my friends in Vietnam by English too. I recognized that writing English and using English instead of Vietnamese or Chinese come naturally. Even though I write a letter for my Vietnamese friends, I start with English ^^.
I know I do have a lot of mistakes in using English. However, I feel that I am improving hehehehe.

computers and hi-tech in our life.

The youth people like me and my generation are living in a digital world and our life are depended more and more on computers and hi-tech. For example, I cannot comfortable of I don’t have my notebook with me. Every day, the first thing I do after getting into my house is turn on my laptop. Some time I have nothing to do with it, but like a habit I must turn it on. I online, chat, blogging every day. If one day I have not done these stuffs, I could not sleep. In addition, my cell phone is the second important hi-tech thing for me. I always put my note, my family and friends’ number, birthday in it. One of the most important duty of my cell phone is remind me about the day, the things that have to be done.
However, we can not negate the benefit of computers and hi-tech. Can you imagine 20 year ago when there is no internet and cell phone? How inconvenient it is!!! For instant, I am studying aboard now, if it were not have internet how can I share my picture with my family at home and chat with them, and see them on the webcam. Moreover, since cell phones have been more and more popular, our life is more organize. We can connect to everyone right away no matter where they are.
Everything has its good and bad side. It depends on how we use it.

free journal -- my second family in US ^^

[pix: Rebecca and Tony]

2 months in US
In 2 months I have experienced a lot new things. I have a chance to learn about American culture. I have a chance to challenge myself. Before I was here in US, I thought that it would be a very hard time in my life because I live far from my family and my country. Fortunately, now I feel enjoy on my journey.
I have my second family here. My cousin and his wife take care of me. My cousin Tony has left Vietnam for 20 years. It means that I have not seen him in 20 years. But we are getting along well together. Moreover I really appreciate my cousin’s wife Rebecca, she is very nice. She is a Canadian and she cannot speak Vietnamese. She always takes care of me. My friends told me that I was very lucky because I had my second family here. We go out for every week end for dinner. Tony and I love the Japanese food and we always get in line almost one and a haft hours in front of the Taiko at Irvine. He and I also like the Kim chi from Korean. We live in Garden Grove – Korean town. Every week, we finish a jar of Kim chi ^^. Rebecca is very love Vietnamese food especially PHO. In general, my family here loves to enjoy the food from different culture and area. In these 2 months, I have chance to taste Vietnamese food, Korean food, Chinese food, Taiwanese food, Thai food, Italian food, French food, American food, Mexico food, Japanese food and my favorite yogurt in Yogurt Land ^^. Last weekend, we went to LA to take part in a yogurt seminar. It was so funny and interested.
Last month, we went to Las Vegas for vacation. It was a amazing trip. Hehehe I love Las Vegas. I did not gambling because I did not want to waste my money on that. Rebecca and I went shopping all day and night.
And this month, I am going to visit my uncle in Seattle- Washington State. I will be there for one week. Tony and Rebecca cannot go with me because they have to go to work every day.
