The year of the snake!

Vietnamese new year was nice! At first I was very nervous, but having Mary and Hanna there made me a bit calmer because then I could talk to them and also my "brothers" were there.
The celebration was fun! I really liked the dragons performing. I forgot to take pictures of them... But I really like dragons!! hehehe! And last year was the year of the dragon, and I suppose they were "chasing away the dragon for the new coming year" or something. I don't know, cause I don't speak Vietnamese.... But it was pretty and fun! They also had competitions, like singing and modeling. And different  shows from Vietnam, singing, dancing and such. And the food!!! I have no idea what I was eating!!! Haha! But it tasted good! :)
A slightly edited photo of me at the celebrations.
The reason I was nervous about going there is that in Vietnamese (Asian?) cultures you don't tell your parents about having a girlfriend basically until the day you are getting married or having children or wen it's getting really serious. And Asians talk... Allot! And I wanted to try not to appear as his girlfriend (even thou Mary told someone... But I think she was a friend of them all...) and I thought he was joking when he said his sister and mother was there but he DIDN'T!! Being told about to the parents is a big deal! So yeah, I was nervous... I was there as a "friend".. :) (My own choice!!)

Then we went to k-pop party. It sucked... The DJ sucked, the bar sucked, the place sucked (Looked like a prison, an old movie theater) and my head hurt and I was really tired and then my feet hurt because my shoes was killing me... I danced to the stupidly mixed music like a crazed baboon, couldn't take it serious.. Haha! The most fun I had at that party. Baboon.... And of course being with my lovely darling twin sister Liss!!! But I feel bad for making her day a bit bad, since I wasn't feeling that well... SORRY SIS!!!! <3
Partying after a week of sickness isn't the best idea I have ever had.... But at least I was sober!

Now I'm back home and I have hugged Daughter so much she is now officially sick of her mother! And now it's time for sleep. First day at "work" and kindergarten in a week tomorrow.

Pai pai!! // Teri <3
