I haven’t had a particularly glamorous first 3 months of 2009. I am now the scary old age of 28 (though I may look younger), and I’m still working with the same company I was before when I first settled in Vietnam over two years ago.
- I have started playing some basketball, once a week, with Hai and Jimmy and others, over in District 11
- Living with a friend for now, not sure when I’ll move out. The economics here are a bit tough. I make enough money to live ok, eat solid food, run AC all the time, but can’t really go anywhere or buy things (nothing I want to buy here, though)
- Working, working, working- the life of a startup is wildly depressing yet hopeful. It’s a good thing I don’t drink a lot.
- Sold my motorbike, my Yamaha Nouvo. I would like to get the new 135 (previous was 113) cc model, but not sure how and when my personal finances will make that happen.
- Played some video games on my new XBox 360, including Gears of War (1), Halo 3, Rainbox Six 2: Vegas, and Call of Duty: World at War
And the pictures above, starting upper left going clockwise:
- Last week at Lan’s daughter’s first birthday. Picture taken by Tu- the colors really come out well on his Canon DSLR….
- That’s me with Jin’s son Thomas during Lunar New Year in TPHCM (Saigon, Ho Chi Minh City). The city create a flower festival of sorts downtown.
- Some toys at Diamond Plaza in District 1. War is great.
- Me….somewhere. I don’t even know. I think Wing took this with my phone at Bud’s Ice Cream in District 3 during his visit here with Sam.
- Thomas dressing up for his birthday party- my favorite, Batman. I’m the reflection on the right.
That really is basically it for this year so far, see everything else here.
