I went out with a bunch of highschool friends. It was fun hanging out, chilling with everyone. I didn’t see any of them for 3-4 years already. Althouhg they didn’t change that much, i could only remember the name of some closed friends. I felt so bad when everyone was like .. “How’s going Thinh Du” and i was like “uhmm.. good..” and had no idea what their names are LOL. Anyway, we went to this place called BARS. Yeah, it’s kinda funny because the place is actually a bar. They have pizza there along with pool table and a dance floor, pretty cool.

Now, i have to study a bit more and make sure i remember the 100 questions that they will ask during my citizenship exam. Gota pass this exam ;-) . 2morrow, me, Pattick and Jay (highschool friends) will have lunch toghether at (according to Pattrick) a Vietnamese-French combination restaurant. What an odd combination it is! I dont really care.. just hangout with the old friends… i guess. Then Thursday i’ll have my citizenship exam and that night i’ll hang out with Nha~ since he called me and complain that we have to go a bar or club before i get back to school. He’s a fun dude. Me and him can go on for hours and “ne’m luu da.n” at each other non-stop…. LOL..

But the day i’m looking for most is this Saturday. I can’t wait to see Vo again. We will go to this broadway show called “The Producer” with my sister and brother-in-law. It gona be fun :-)

Vacation Recap

I know this is kinda late but…. HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!…
As you can see in the post below, most of my vacation goals are done. My vacation is very fun so far although i didn’t stay home much last week :) . A little recap on my vacation so far:
The trip to LI, NY visit vo*. was great. I came there early on the 30th before the group (Bang, Phuc, Khang, Viet, Nhuy, Trinh). Me and Chrissy go to NYC that day ,while waiting for everyone to get here, and we took a few pics. There was this snow flake light show. It was aaaaawwwwsome. Chrissy recorded a short video with her camera . i’ll upload it later if i feel like it. We picked up everyone that night and we was a bit late :-P (sorry guy!). The day after we went to Time Square. It was a good experience. Although it would be better if we stayed instead of went back to Chrissy’s house early (i think :-/ ) because i dont think we will have another chance like this again. I decided stay an extra day on Sunday while everyone decided to go back to Boston. Chrissy came visit my house on Monday.

On Wednesday, me and my dad went to Washington DC because my dad want to get a connection with a gallery so he can put his painting there to sell. He just finished with a couple painting and they’re pretty nice… i think. So i drove my dad to DC, met up with Tam and we went to Eden viet center eat and walk around. The next day, Tam call me up at 6AM (sooooooo early) to go to DC. We walked around DC for like 6 hours, took a few pics, visited all the memorial places, white house, US capitol etc. I wanted to go to the White House and the Capitol building but my dad and Tam didnt’ want to wait on the line so we visited a few gallery instead. After that, we drove back to Connecticut. Since it was on the way, i decided to pass by LI and take Chrissy to diner. The traffic was sooo bad at 5pm and the tunnel was under construction too… but the diner was worth it though. I got to see vo*. and the food wasss good.. even my dad said that (great suggestion hon ;-) ). After that, we drove home and guess what! i got lost!!!! I can’t believe it.. i think i didnt’ see the sign and pass the exit to Throg Neck Br…. so i ended up in downtown NY.. sigh… It was okie although i drove around NYC for like 45 mins hahaa..

You can tell that i drove around a lot. My dad recorded the mileage and told me that our trip to DC along was 830 miles LOL. That’s approximately the distance from Sai Gon to Ha Noi. Including the trip to NYC, i bet i drove over 1000 miles. Yep, it was long and tired but it was worth every single miles that i drove. I had fun. :-)
That is my vacation recap… now tell me yours!

Oh the pics to NYC is upload here (i’ll uploaded more once i get all the pics from my friends) and the pics to DC is uploaded here
