I know it's been some time since my last entry before the holiday I'm so sorry because I was too occupied to update.I had a trip to Vietnam and taken a lot of pictures, take a look at them on Facebook if you're interested. I went to the Bookfest at Kuala Lumpur and managed to witness Giddens aka δΉζŠŠεˆ€ giving an awesome speech. Of course I bought like nearly 20 books there.
And then we are painfully reminded that school leaving exam is only 28 days away. Terrific.

We departed at 9.30am and landed in Hanoi at around 12.30pm. Then straightly we went for lunch. The meal served was Vietnamese Pho Noddles in a well-known restaurant.

And then we walked across the road and arrived at a famous tourist attraction named The Temple of Literature or Temple of Confucius.

And amazingly we found that there were Chinese writings all around the place. There were actually some moral values formed by bonsai and displayed at the temple.


Due to jet lag we were too tired to continue the city tour so we went back to hotel for some rest. We didn't go anywhere until we went for dinner. Every building in Hanoi seems to be slim and slender in size. They might be three or four storey in height but tend to be a rectangle more than a square.

And then I managed to have a little drink of the local Hanoi Beer. They were actually lite beer (compared to those we usually drink) and I could drink quite a couple of cups. There were quite inexpensive too.

During the trip I witnessed a lot of people living in poor condition and under the poverty threshold. No matter how hard it is, they would do their best to make their life at least meaningful. 
I did not take pictures of them as I considered it disrespectful. But I ran a search and unsurprisingly there were a lot more people living like this.

There are people out there who are fighting for living :





Life is hard. Just keep on moving. LOVE LIFE <3
