Oh Hell!

HELLO!!!! Long time no post already haha. I'm in the midst of my prelims and i'm tellin you right here, right now, right this minute that I'm screwed , for prelims that is.. Definitely will not be screwed for Os because that would mean my future would be so screwed up that i cannot tell you how screwed i would be. hahs.

Went t Vietnam during the national day weekend, yes long wekkend actually but came back on sunday . Was there for 4 days 3 nights. I actually missed partly of schoool, went back for chem practical. haha. Such a good girl. lol. Left for airport at 10 am then planed to vietnam at 12.40pm.haha. It was a 2hr flight and when we reached there , we went t0 the hotel, i changed, wore my contacts and then went to walk around. It was great actually, the trip. haha. Pity i couldn't get shirts because people there are like more than half my size and they don't do large sizes. Sigh... Luckily i managed to buy a pair of jeans. haha. I was satisfied enough . Was not expecting to buy any clothing from Vietnam but i managed to so, lucky me.. haha. Bought a pair of slipper and a bag which i kind of broke but can be repaired. haha.

The food there is really good, Vietnam is famous for it noodles, pho. It's promounced as phur not how u see it. haha. I was beef crazy so practically every meal contained beef. Which was nice.

We went to the site of the Vietnam War. And i tell u the Vietnamese are really smart people. As eventhough they were out numbered by the Americans, they managed to win the war by using mainly bamboo sticks and leaves and living underground. It was amazing seeing the traps they made, whcih were by the way not kind at all. You have door traps whereby when the soldiers open the door, what meets them is not a Vietnamese but a hammer with spikes that hits them in the groin and what have you. Not pretty at all.

All around Vietnam, you could see people travelling by motorcycles, not many by car. And some by bikes too. The traffic in Vietnam is no where compared to Singapore's. The roads are pretty messy at Rush Hour and i mean messy. It is so easy to meet an accident. There are also many circles which can be rather confusing. The shopping is also madhouse at certain places like at the Russian market. The place is pretty packed. But the stuff there are nice... I don't mind going back to Vietnam. But i would have to get used to the food there because i actually got a present from Vietnam. Stomach Flu to be exact. I was literally shitting water out. Lol. Thank goodness Monday was a public holiday and i could see the doctor and get MC for Tuesday. haha. The trip was really good and fun as i could spend time with my family .... It's good. Well gotta go Bye! Loves!
