Yêu Và Nhớ


Mưa tí tách ngoài hiên Miền Đồng Thảo
Để Du Miên trăn trở nỗi mong chờ
Một Bố Già đang ngả người, chao đảo
Một Cõi Riêng, héo hắt bụi hoa mờ.

Vòng tay ấm, ngọt môi, tim hòa quyện
Cảm giác ấy, người ơi, lặn xa rồi
Dải cát vàng đưa đẩy hàng chân biển
Bởi người thôi, mong mỏi buổi chiều rơi.

Tình nơi ấy, còn ta nơi tuyết lạnh
Ai bất hạnh, ai chạnh một bên lòng?
Trời giông tố, tình rơi không muốn tạnh
Như hối hận, như giận một căn phòng.

Yêu là khổ, mà không yêu cũng khổ
Ta là ai, có phải thuộc về nhau?
Ngày tháng trôi, đời trôi, tôi lầm lỡ
Còn em mãi đợi, ru hời thương đau.


Hỏi thời gian làm chi mà quá vội?
Vừa im lặng, ta tạm biệt nhau rồi
Nặng lòng nhau, bịn rịn một câu chào
Để cuối cùng tắc kè còn níu kéo.

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?

How to Become a Teller For Bank of America

I currently am working for Bank of America (BofA) as a teller, and it’s been 2 months now. A little bit about what I am, I am an international student whose first language is not English. When I graduated from college, I didn’t do any internship and had no remotely related experience to banking industry. I was full of disadvantages. BofA’s website clearly stated that they wouldn’t typically hire and sponsor F1-visa students, and, on top of everything, the economy was painfully lagging. One cannot help but wonder why in the world they would hire someone like me while millions of Americans were being unemployed. That’s why I really think that I should share my story, and that my story might be somewhat beneficial for some of you who are now reading it. The first and foremost reason was because I was interested in BofA deeply. When I was in my junior year, I was reading my Marketing textbook. The featured story of chapter 8 was about Bank of America, the history of the compa...

The Ineffectiveness of English

I have interacted with English since kindergarten, and for the last four years I have been living in the US, using solely English for daily communications. Despite my effort of continual self-improving, I can’t quite understand the language. There have been explanations, of course, such as how it’s not my first language, how cultures and traditions get in place… Only recently, it strikes me with a more understandable reason: English is an ineffective language. There are so many disadvantages of English. First of all is the way one person talks to another. You can only use “I” and “you” no matter if the person you’re talking to is an earthworm or a high king. The same with “he”, “she”, “it”, and “they”. All the languages that I have ever associated with, which are French, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, and Cantonese, they have different words to address different people. I believe this should be the way to talk, since each person requires to be treated with respect, order, and ...
