Yesterday started on a little down note.. i forgot my helmet.. ahahah.. according to yen in vietnam there is 3 things u cannot forget. purse, handphone and HELMET.. lucky she was smart and fast on the bike and we manage to get to the event on time.
The hotel of which the event was to take place was a 5 star hotel.. so it was really interesting.. the event was.. well in vietnamese.. din really understand much but i did catch a thing or two.. n i realised that when there are 'gaps' in between events.. they sing.. in vietnamese.. LOUDLY.. ahahha .. lunch was good.. another thing i realised.. for chinese meals, we serve the food one dish at a time.. but in vietnamese meals all are brought out at the same time.. interesting interesting
After that, being totally random and adventurous, guess where me and yen went? jeng jeng jeng we went to the zoo.. (which was conveniently located opposite the hotel) just imagine two crazy gals in formal wear and heels on my side going around the zoo.. stinky! comment : the zoo wasn't too big but the animals were well fed and .. well fat.. i even saw chunks of meat around.. i guess the tigers there do not feed on grass like in the malaysian zoo.. again tempted by the lake and the swan boats, we decided to go swan boating.. lalala.. it was really nice.. and u could see fishes swimming.. and dead fishes too.. but i swear i wanna go to swan boat at west lake! its 5 times bigger than the one that we went for.. yen den on a total whim brought me for some banana chey :P awesome
Den came my outing with Anh.. she brought me to the temple of literature.. its a BEAUTIFUL place.. like a smaller version of the forbidden city .. some parts at least.. awesome landscaping! and the history very interesting.. i like it there a lot:P too bad no lotus.. oo interesting note : anh told me that they still carve names of the top students from the top universities into those slabs of rocks :) that is really cool. the tradition lives!
We went to some shops but i was really sticky.. and hot.. so wasn't in the mood to try on the clothes.. ahhaha
What did i do today?
I went for a company meeting which was pretty good i think.. :D den trang (not my host) brought me to some shops in hoan kiem lake.. still have not bought anything .. ahahaha .. and tonight alvin is going to bring his taiwan fren for yogurt..oosh and tomorrow!! halong bay!! lalaala
