Yoohoo~
I'm back, finally. Lol
The trip was okay .
Im glad that the trip was not arranged in a way
that we have to rush from one place to the other.
This trip was quite relaxing.

I like the cooling weather there,
but the place is so dusty that the 1st day we went there,
we have pimples popping out of our face.
Yes, it is that dirty & dusty.
No wonder the ppl there wear mask.

The ppl there have good genes.
Everywhere I go, I see beautiful girls & handsome guys.
& the ppl there are ALL thin.
EVERYONE.
Cause in those not so developed areas in Hanoi,
they have to walk a very long route to go out.
They have a lot of plantations too.

In the more developed areas in hanoi,
I did not see any shopping centre like Bukit Panjang Plaza.
All the shops are arranged in a row.

Anyway, the most unforgettable thing in this trip
is crossing the god damn road & taking the trishaw.
It's super scary okay.
You have motors coming to you in every directions which
made you don't know want to carry on walking or stop in the middle of the road.
Everyone was scared of crossing the road on the first day.
When we're crossing the road with the tour guide,
we were like "Omg, wth. Why are there so many motors & why are they not stopping?"
But we kinda get used to it on the third day.
We used the method that the tour guide teached us.
It's when you gather everyone, you say "1,2,3."
& cross together, the motors will stop for you.
& did I mention that the drivers are horny. opps, sorry . O.o
Horning all the time?
& that is super disturbing.

I saw students cycling to school at 8 am hanoi time, also saw them cycling at 12noon,3pm.
Which makes me think how long do they study in school.
Vietnam is very big, we need 3hrs + to get from Hanoi to Ha Long Bay,
which I think I slept throughout the whole journey.

On the last day, which is our free time, we walked at the shops near our
hotel, & saw one cyber cafe which only collect $0.3o per hour which I think is so damn cheap.
I can use sing $0.10 to buy a fried food which is quite similar to our currypuff,
but instead of having curry inside , they put tofu all that inside & the size is almost twice the
size of the currypuff.
$0.30 for the whole corn.
damn cheap right.

Vietnam ppl are very friendly .
The only thing is that we cannot communicate.
& I'm surprised by the amount of ang moh going Vietnam.
Everywhere I go, I saw Angmohs.

Although the tour guide says that man & woman there have equal status,
but the woman still do all the planting & growing of crops, while the man stays at home & do
nothing if he is jobless.
& if the wife is being beaten up by the husband, they have to keep quiet.
You guys try beating your wife in singapore & you see what you get.
you'll get lawyer's letter I tell you. Lol
The man there can have more than 1 wife because they have more women than men.
& the name for the wives are food names like 大米饭,小米饭, 米粉 & other weird names.

I feel that I'm fortunate to be born in singapore,
cause the ppl there are leading a hard life there .

Pictures will be up the next post , I promise.
Till then, Ciaos.
