What would you say if I told you I loved you?


LOOK LOOK LOOK
A HEART

Book: ANYTHING BY TOLKIEN
Song: Old Brown Shoe - The Beatles
Food: Instant Noodles
Quote: "Get to da chopaaa" - The Terminator


I don't know what to blog about yet my mind has been forcing me to make another post. Hmm. My ideas are mostly revolving around Vietnam-related topics but I also want to keep it fresh and lively. TIME TO TAKE BLOGGIN' SERIOUSLY.




Anyway, I just wanted to say something:
Thank You.

You're probably thinking I'm thank you-ing a kajillion people, and I am. I would like to thank you EVERYONE who helped me get through life's problems, who sent (and still are) me bundles of unwavering love, who were the crutches whenever I broke a limb, who made me explode with laughter on the days where a smile was impossible to do, said the smallest things that simply made my day and especially were able to share those special one moments with me.
You know who you are.
I am so lucky to have the absolute coolest people on this Earth as friends to thank. I couldn't be any happier than I already am. Just thinking of you guys and the most hilarious times make me blossom with smiles. Which I guess explains the weird looks I get when I randomly start to giggle in class.
If ever come the day where I were to lose at least one of you guys, you can just about tear open my heart and shove a dagger right through.
Without thinking twice and doubt, I can say, I love you guys.

One very pixelated picture explains a thousand words.
There were much too many memories to ever write down. If you asked me, I'd be rambling on forever. Camping was much too epic for words. I loved it.

CAMP CAMP CAMP

Book: The Vampire Lestat - Anne Rice
Song:
Toothpaste Kisses - The Maccabees
Food: Apple Blossom Cakes
Quote:
"I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered." - Jesus Christ Mark 14:27

Haha, the recommendations sound so holy.

Here here, I'm at Em's house, packing, computering, guitarin' and farting up a typhoon.
Whoop.
I'm going of on a wicked adventure tomorrow, one I've been mentioning about now and then - CAMPING. PBC Camping to be accurate.
Its an approximate two hour drive from where she lives (of which I am certainly not telling you creepers) in a peninsula called Pres'quile. There we will be tent camping around a bonfire, do many Vietnamese related activities, exchange our
Vuot Bien stories and be consume by swarms of mosquitoes.
Sounds awesome, doesn't it?
Even though its tent camping, a shower and bathroom facility will be located near by. But it seems the washroom is a single toilet with a six feet hole, drilled down, containing our fecal matter. Splendid!
I can't wait, we have a annual meteor sprinkle raining down the skies this August Friday night - one you can't see from the city, I think. It will be a beautiful night, with Charlie (my guitar) by my side and flying red rocks shooting down the skies.
I can't wait.


Over and out.

You're so awesome.

I've heard many boat people stories in the last little while and they all make me want to cry. May's dad said that 2 million people left Viet Nam, and that only 1 million made it out alive. 1 million people... that is comparable to a good chunk of Toronto. 1 million people died out at sea or at the hands of pirates, or even worse, at the hands of the Viet Cong. The 1 million that did make it out were separated from family members and were forced to learn how to exist in a new world. Yet these 1 million were given a chance to live in freedom. These 1 million are our parents. We should make every effort to learn about their incredible journey. - Ray Huynh

Topic Zero

Book: The Silmarillion - J.R.R Tolkien
Song: Hosanna - Hillsong United
Food: Gala Apples
Quote: "I've never been this close to a man" - Stanimir
&
"A day without a laugh is a day wasted" - Charles Chaplin

Today at the PBC, inspirational and petite Kimmie taught us the dance for pumping up the night around the camp's bonfire. It's really awesome and the practice is hilarious. Together, the dance's final product should be real spectacular.
We ate chips, gummy bears until we felt like crapping up a typhoon, Vietnamese food, passed an orange around in various quirky ways, and thrusted all throughout those 6 hours.
Emilie and I went to FairView Mall today and bought some Tolkien books. Along with a baking book which we basically scan the pages, gawking at beautiful baked goods we would never possibly make.
At New York Fries, a lady messed up our poutine order, making a small instead of a regular. She ended up sneaking us the extra small for free. At first, it was "Yay!" but midway into the meal, it was "Oh God, I'm going to puke."

Magical Moments #1: The Oprah Whoop

Why doesn't anyone know about the Oprah Whoop?



This was definitely an Oprah Whoop moment.

NEW TOILET

Book: Do Not Pass Go - Kirkpatrick Hill
Song: If You're Reading This - Tim McGraw
Food: Crab Soup - not shark soup
Quote: Any girl can be glamorous. All you have to do is stand still and look stupid. - Hedy Lamarr

Shark soup is a perplexing thing. I strongly recommend everyone watch this documentary called, "Sharkwater". It's going to open your eyes about our underwater "enemy".


Endangered animals aside, we got a new toilet! It's the eco friendly kind which makes it all the better. And let me just let you know, this is not an automatic toilet - if you know what I mean ;)

The picnic was a blast. We took a good portion of photos, played loads of badminton and climbed "risky" rocks out into the sea. We however did not go swimming. The option really turned us off, especially when we discovered three large metal tubes dispensing mysterious liquids out into the water.
My cousin (Emilie) had to leave early, she had a summer exam to study for. If she doesn't pass, she won't make it into the program she's been wanting to go in for Uni.
Good luck!
