The study abroad program in Ha Noi has come to an end–I am now back in Sai Gon before heading to Siem Reap and Phnom Penh for a few days. Soon enough Christmas and New Year’s will come to pass and I will be back in the states. I can already sense that I will have some level of depression upon my return. In fact, I have already started to plan my future returns to this country.
Four o’clock this morning, after farewells at both Balcony Bar and the newly opened Hanoi Alcochol University, Nguyet, Hac, and I were on to our way to the airport without sleep. Arriving in Sai Gon around eight thirty, we gathered our luggage before parting ways. For this was all we had left for now apart from the past conversations, adventures, and times we all had together.
Today is my mother’s birthday back in states, Happy Birthday Mom!
Visit the Khmer killing fields, and Remember Darfur, Rwanda, and Bosnia…

Dear Hao,
Thanks for sending Me all the warm and beautiful
wishes on my 49 th birthday. It’s nice to go back in Saigon again! So how long do you plan to stay in Phnom Penh? Hope you guys have a nice and safe trip over there. When you head back to Saigon try to go on skype, I need to talk to you and ask you to buy a few things for me. Well enjoy your last two weeks over there, before you come back in the states. Don’t feel sad, probably next year your dad will save some moneys and we’ll go together to visit VN again. I think it sounds wonderful already! Everybody are waiting to welcome you back home over here. Especially Bo Me miss you a lot and Anh Hiep, too. We all wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy healthy New Year 2007
Dinh Hoi! It will be a year of the pig, next year. Until next posting. Take care and stay safe.
Love, Me cua Hao.
Mom
