Day 117


Monday morning and there’s only more 5 days until I leave HCMC… I wake up with this anxiety that I don’t know how to explain, don’t know if it’s because I’m leaving or because I wanna stay but I guess the best is to get up, shower and get ready for breakfast.

When Xuan’s ready we go for breakfast at Lady Bulldog and today the noodles are very spicy. My mouth is burning but I don’t complain, just in case that Lady Bulldog gets mad and don’t give me breakfast anymore. =)

We pickup the motorbike and head to Highlands coffee shop for our cà phê sa đá and a morning talk. I’ve missed these talks with Xuan… then around 11 am we leave and head to Saigon Plaza where we buy some more clothes for Thach Thao and Phuc.

Time to go home for lunch and, once more, after lunch I feel so sleepy that I need to close my eyes and rest for a bit. At 4.30 pm Xuan calls me and we go deliver dinner to Xuan’s mother and the kids come with us. Her mother isn’t at home so we leave the food and head to the tailor who already has all our stuff ready. My mother’s trousers are very beautiful and my shirts look very pretty too… I’m happy with our things, we’re going to look even prettier than we already are! =) We pay everything and head home where we leave Thach Thao and Phuc for dinner and go to the tailor in front of the house to get the last 2 tank tops I’ve ordered and they’re amazeballs! When we want to pay, the lady doesn’t have change so we go for dinner to change the money and then we’ll comeback to pay what we owe.

We get the motorbike and go to the barbeque place where I eat so fast that the chicken legs disappear with a blink of an eye… then I need iced tea to put everything down, of course… now that we have changed money we head back to the tailor to pay them and then  we have to go book the karaoke room for Diem Manh’s b-day party on Wednesday.

We go to Avatar Karaoke and while Xuan talks with the girls there to book the room ad the menu I look around and look at the pamphlet they have and it’s very funny. This place has many themed karaoke rooms and depending on what you like they have it: if you’re a Man-U fan they have a Manchester United room, if you’re a Real fan they have a Real Madrid room, if, instead, you like Egyptian motives there’s always the Egypt room or the cleopad, if you’re into space stuff there’s the UFO room, the cosmic room and so on and son… 


When everything is booked, we go buy a fishing game for the kids and then head home, exactly when it’s starting to rain… we’re lucky and the heavy rain only starts when we’re already at home so now it’s time for a shower, the p-jays and a movie: Domino…


Night night peeps!
