A diary of DK’s first semester in UCM – Part 1

Month… date… year…

Today was crazy. The computers of US immigration department didn’t work until 6 hours being fixed. Therefore I missed my next flight to Kansas City. They gave me a “standing by” ticket, and I’d get stuck here forever.

Sorry Mom. There’s no free wireless here for me to use the internet. The telephone card here is so stupid that it didn’t let me call home for a second. Please don’t be so worried. I’ll get to UCM soon. I promise! ...

Month… date… year…

I decided to stop playing some games with my friends, in order to come to my room early – to chat with you.

DK: Are you there?
Orchid: Yea :D

And it was my happy day. You wouldn’t ever understand.

Month… date… year…

Today I promised to Orchid that I would perform popping in the Cultural night on spring. So from now on, I have to take it seriously. I know I’m not so good at popping as your Korean guys. But I’ll keep practicing. It doesn’t matter if I won’t get good result. It’s that I will have tried my best, because of me – because of you.

Month… date… year…

I was really sad and jealous when Orchid always put a pretty Korean boy to be her avatar. So today I decided to do something fun.

I used Wd Paint to draw a picture of a “guy” with a sick face of Y!M, and had the same situation, same clothes, same background as her avatar (except the face – of course). It was not easy for sure, I use Paint and hers was a real picture.

It took me a lot of time, and I finished it at last. I was so happy, and I hope you would find it interesting also.

You were online. I showed you my new avatar. You laughed and told me it was so ugly, and didn’t look like hers. Then you quickly changed to another guy’s picture. How sad I was, you would never know! Not every effort will get the result which it deserves.

The angel of the Wind (Thần Gió) had his own “green-face” image since then.

Month… date… year…

Today I decided to have a new roommate – for the fact that I had to. So it was Phat – the Vietnamese guy who was living near by. He became my new roommate.
Since now on, I have someone to laugh with (and to laugh at)…
I have someone to say “good night”
It’s good. :) Welcome, brod.

Month… date… year…

I haven’t met Orchid online for 2 days. Why don’t you answer me something? Anything? Or… you’ve forgot’n me already?

Month… date… year…

Today I became a super moderator of PNS forum. It was what I had wanted before. But now, all the administrators are gone, as well as other moderators. There was only me now, trying to maintain the website day by day, hopelessly. I don’t know. Maybe I’d be gone soon, also. Can I help to maintain something, when my own pain doesn’t have its cure? I am sorry. So depressed.

Month… date… year…

Today I bought a pirate sword at Wal-Mart for the coming Halloween. It was only 4usd, and it was really kool. At midnight, I carried the sword around and pretended to be a security guard. There was a woman saw that, and was scared. She decided to call the community advisers about that. They thought it was a REAL sword until I showed them a line “made in China” on it. It was so funny! I’m lovin’ it!!!

Month… date… year…

I went back to my room at 7h30 pm after finishing my last class for the day. I suddenly looked up to the sky, and realized that the moon was so full, and so bright! Wow, it’s like years since the last time I had looked at the moon like that. Oh, that’s right! Today is full moon, isn’t it?

I felt a little bit sad, a little bit lonely… Maybe you were hanging out with your friends. That’s why you let me wait forever here tonight.

Nothing fun. Only being annoyed by big Phat. Oh, how I hate moon festival!…

Month… date… year…

Today I wrote a new blog entry. Since my second last day of breakdancing class, I started writhing more often – usually when I was deeply sad…

….when you weren’t online.

I know, you will not be online to me anymore. But I’ll keep writing my blog, try not to write about you. I'll forget you soon, some day.

How Many Words in This List That You Know?

How are you doing on your readings in general and more specifically in developing your vocabularies? Recently I started reading a book for my Finance class called The End of Wall Street by Roger Lowenstein. In the very first chapter of the book – a short 6-page prologue, there were many words that I did not know, and I am listing them here: destitute somnolent bulwark scrutinize (to) prick quiescent laudatory salient fervent (adj) frothy parlance umbilical (cord) placate carnage plenitude opiate dictum stupendous I was so surprised to see so many new words in such a small amount of pages! How is this Roger Lowenstein guy? You would think that while reading a finance book, the only words you would stumble upon are technical terms or lingos. Or maybe I am just bad. How many words in the list above that you already know?

Niềm tự hào Việt ?!

Từ khi mới sinh ra, không biết bao nhiêu lần người ta rót vào tai nhau: “Chúng ta thật tự hào là người Việt Nam !” “Yeah, chúng ta là người Việt Nam , yeah!” “Yeah! Tự hào! Yeah!”… Thế là bản thân cũng phải có lúc tự hỏi mình: tại sao lại tự hào vậy? Tôi không tự hào mình là “con rồng” hay “cháu tiên” rồi. Tôi hẳn nhiên là con người. Vậy thì vì cái gì nhỉ? Vì sự thông minh ư? Điều này nghe rất có lý. Bao nhiêu người Việt Nam xa xưa nghĩ ra rất nhiều kế rất hay. Những “Trạng Lường” Lương Thế Vinh, những Trần Hưng Đạo hay Cao Thắng, Trần Đại Nghĩa thì quả thật không thể không nể trọng. Và ngày nay, bao nhiêu du học sinh Việt Nam du học đã đạt thành tích cao, đứng đầu lớp và đầu khối. (Về điều này thì tôi không hề nói tốt gì về mình. Tôi luôn thua kém xa các bạn Việt Nam xung quanh về thành tích.) Vậy là người Việt Nam thông minh sao? Đúng. Nhưng đó có phải là điều để chúng ta tự hào không? Tôi luôn tin rằng sự thông minh phải đi kèm với sự khôn ngoan thì mới đáng tự hào được. Sự th...

Sâu Con Online Part 06

Part 06: Nghĩ ngợi – bánh gai – có điềm The story so far: Cậu sinh viên trẻ Hoàng muốn tìm hiểu và làm quen với một cô gái bí ẩn trong game Audition. Với sự giúp đỡ của cậu bạn thân tên Tuấn, Hoàng đã thấy được cô bé cấp ba ấy, với hình dáng của một “Thạch Sanh” thời hiện đại. Mọi thứ trở nên tồi tệ hơn khi Hoàng còn bị Thạch Sanh chửi “thật là tồi tệ!”… Để đọc câu chuyện từ đầu click HERE Part 05 click HERE Lần này là Hoàng tức giận thật rồi. Hắn vẫn biết trên đời có nhiều chuyện trớ trêu, nhưng ai có thể tin được mội con quái nhân khủng khiếp như thế có thể tồn tại chứ. Quá ghê gớm, bên trong còn hơn cả bên ngoài. Trình độ xấu xa của “Thạch Sanh” đến thế này thì ai …kill được nó chắc hưởng nhiều EXP lắm… Cơn tức của Hoàng một lúc sau thì hạ bớt. “Cậu thật là tồi tệ!”- câu nói “độc ác” lại vụt thoáng qua trong đầu hắn. Hàng lông mày đang cau lại bắt đầu dãn ra từ từ. Hình như…, con bé nó sủa cũng không phải là sai lắm… Đúng là có rất nhiều thằng con trai suốt ngày chỉ để ý ...
