All good things must come to an end!

SO I'm finally back from my adventure ^^ I came back on Friday morning at 12:40 am and it was sooo much fun ^^. Sorry if I haven't been blogging alot while I was away. This was because of the following reasons:
  1. The weather. It's winter/spring in Vietnam so it ment that it rained alot causing me to stay indoors.
  2. The electricity. During the last week or so, there was a week where there was no power during the day.
  3. No computer avaliable.
But the best thing was when my parents changed my flight details. They changed it so I could stay an extra 10 days :D which was the best early birthday present. Cause at the time, I thought I was leaving so I threw an early birthday party/ farewell party.

So a very quick summary of my holiday (photos and more info will be blogged later on) :
  • I visited the Bai Dinh Temple in Ninh Binh
  • Went to 2 end of the year party (Tet Linh). This party is held to thank people who helped the church over the year.
  • Experienced my first Lunar New Year and what 3 days of the new Lunar New Year means.
  • Visited an old friend at the college that he was studying at.
  • Meet some old friends at various functions.
  • Hang out with a friend over a cup of coffee at a karaoke/cafe bar at night. (which is a popular thing to do at night)
  • Was able to show off my cooking skills :D (and no my food didn't taste bad :P)
  • Was able to cook a meal that I've never cooked before but only seen my mum cook.
  • ALMOST made a huge scene at a Supermarket. Cause 2 ladies didn't know what lining up at the check out ment.
  • Had the courage to introduce myself infront of university students at one of the gatherings that was planned.
  • Made a fool of myself when I tried to jump to the ground but ended up falling.
  • Making my cousin and aunties and everyone else down the street (about 6 houses down) that I have a loud mouth :P
  • Making a friend believe that I was visiting friends and family down South (Nam). Also fooling him that I only just came back from there.
