    Room to Read Site Visit I still remember the poem that one of Vietnamese students studying at Stanford University wrote: "When my eyes are closed And my heart is stopped The present or the future doesn't matter anymore" Hope I could be a poet being able to tear other people' heart by her touching and tolerating words. Human being's soul is so complicated to understand yet worth believing in that just only a flicker of something beautiful could make us cry. I believe that we don't cry for the profound anguish in our heart, but for the happiness that happens rarely in our life. And on the last Saturday, I had a chance to cry for this kind of happiness. I met many warm-hearted and enthusiastic people from Room to Read in Tra Vinh Province (a non-profit focused on girl education and children's literacy) who has sacrificed their youth to lighten up and mentor many broken and vulnerable lives. They are who I believe worth believing in human being's kindness and forgiveness. Through many noteworthy adventures and workshops, I gave myself up – perhaps just for a while – to some wonderful and inspiring people who I feel respect, admire and wonder as my role models. Now, this is my honor and pleasure to be a role model for Vietnamese young girls, for whom are not able to find any role models around their small circle of society except their parents, teachers and the doctors that they meet sometimes, to make them believe that the future is in their hands as long as they never give up the longing for education. Please support them and if you have a chance, join a site visit to their project place which is the best way to understand how meaningful their activities for Vietnamese girls is!

    Daytime just has the sun gently kissed the ground Try to translate one of my favorite Vietnamese poems. Daytime just has the sun gently kissed the ground I will go with you Even to the place where is no sky nor the ocean No mountains nor clouds And there is no purple flowers Blossom peacefully on the evening paddle field I will go with you You do not need to say much The promises which are unable to be true just make us more miserable I will help you to lit the fire To dispel deep night and dangerous animals Tell me the stories through the jungle road I will go with you To live the dream seems to be lost since our childhood We could tend sheep in the boundary region Or camping besides the river Nighttime just has the moon, stars and dulcet songs Daytime just has the sun gently kiss the ground Then I woke up. Em sẽ đi cùng anh Dù là đến một nơi không trời không biển Không núi không mây Không có những bông hoa màu tím Nở bình yên trên những cánh đồng chiều. Em sẽ đi cùng anh Anh chẳng cần phải nói gì nhiều Những hẹn ước không thành chỉ sẽ làm đời nhau khốn khổ Em sẽ giúp anh nhóm lên đống lửa Xua đêm sâu và bầy thú hiểm hung Kể cho em nghe đi những câu chuyện đường rừng. Em sẽ đi cùng anh Sống giấc mơ ngỡ đã mất kể từ thơ dại Mình có thể chăn cừu ở miền biên tái Hay cắm lều ở cạnh dòng sông Đêm chỉ có trăng sao và những khúc ca hồng Ngày chỉ có mặt trời dịu dàng hôn mặt đất. Rồi thì em tỉnh giấc.

    My New Year's Goals I ended 2017 in a club with terrible DJ music in Nepal, watching fireworks on the stage, getting tipsy merely by a glass of wine. I found myself not doing what I really passionate with, and was struggling with the selfishness, laziness and fears I feel inside, an inner soul which doesn't want to focus on what its crave for, something will need the constant and consistent exposure on. In the contrast, I wasted a huge amount of time and effort on what is apparently meaningful for someone except myself. It's terribly bad, but at least, I have tried to learn new things, to make a change in my tough day-to-day life. Here are some of the things I was happy about in 2017: Finished 10 fiction and nonfiction books Visisted four new countries. Learned to paint watercolor. Continue to learn French. Had many new experiences: trekking to a 2000 meter mountain, did archery, had a Room To Read site visit. My recommend things to invest in yourself and in education: - Read tamlyhoctoipham.com (Vietnamese) or theschooloflife.com (English) daily which are websites provide deep-knowledge in psychology from many aspects of life, to understand more about our inner soul and what's really matter for us. - Attend in an art class or a workshop which is a pretty cool place for vulnerable souls searching for the beauty of art and speechless language. Remember that there is no limit to what you can learn. :) Don't really care about things like I would love to but I'm not talented in drawing. No one will judge your artworks, because the way that we tell our stories is always different and diverse in our experience and perception. There is no wrong or right after all. I have a long list of what I want to do this year, however there are just a limited realistic things I could actually do. Here are the main things: Study abroad Learn how to bake a cheese cake Become a better watercolor painter :) Write a travel blog Exercise more. Pratice yoga regularly. Travel to a new continent (Oceania or European) Finish my reading challenge (12 books) Be more forgiving. Help and do more meaningful things for other people. Be a better person. Sounds like a lot of things to do for a promissing year ahead. Anyway, Happy New Year everyone! Stay warm and be happy! :)
