When I was in 'Nam...: We interrupt this series to bring you something totally random
http://hannahforsythe.blogspot.com/2010/06/we-interrupt-this-series-to-bring-you.html
When I was in 'Nam. Tuesday, 22 June 2010. We interrupt this series to bring you something totally random. Thinking about all the people/places/things I'm going to miss from Vietnam made me really depressed. So I decided to cheer myself up by thinking about one of the most ubiquitously available sources of joy and happiness: random words. One of the best sources of random words is, of course, the good ole' American boy Daniel Webster. And a large picture of my head. The answer is: comment on this blog.

When I was in 'Nam. Wednesday, 31 March 2010. You know you've lived in Hanoi too long if. I have lived in Hanoi for 1 year, 7 months, and 2 weeks. And though I am far from being "just like a Vietnamese person" as many people attempt to praise me, I nevertheless have reached a degree of assimilation. Here are some of the indications that you've lived in Hanoi long enough for things to sink in:. You can cross a shoe checkpoint without even breaking stride. The Lake" means Hoàn Kiếm Lake. Lê Quảng Hà was bo...

When I was in 'Nam...: Things I'm Going to Miss: My Host Family

When I was in 'Nam. Tuesday, 15 June 2010. Things I'm Going to Miss: My Host Family. The time is fast approaching when I must return to the motherland. And like many people who absolutely detest change, I don't like to think about it. So before I think about what lies ahead, let's think some about what lies in the here and now. Let's think about all the people, places, and things that have brought me so much happiness here. Let's start with people. Em Hiếu and anh Tám at Cafe Mobilette. Bác Huỳnh is very...

When I was in 'Nam. Thursday, 21 May 2009. Adventures in TV Stardom. Everyone gets their 15 minutes of fame, but in Vietnam, if you are a foreigner who speaks Vietnamese, you can have a whole hour of it Tuesday night at 8:05. Yes, I have now made my debut on Hanoi TV Channel 1's " Tuesday Night Talk Show. In case the name isn't clear, "Tuesday Night Talk Show" is a talk show that airs on Tuesday night. The general premise is, get 10 young foreigners. Your most embarrassing moment. And at the end we danced.

When I was in 'Nam. Thursday, 20 May 2010. Things that are making me happy today. I have been accused of being a blog perfectionist. And I was challenged to write an impromptu post about things that make me happy. No prior preparation. No camera on hand. Just old photos, the internet, and my wits. Books: There should be a law against reading more than one brain-bending book at a time because of the following principle that I have discovered:. But a happy one). I am cleaner, greener, AND faster than you!

When I was in 'Nam...: Things I'm going to miss: What-in-the-world moments
http://hannahforsythe.blogspot.com/2010/06/things-im-going-to-miss-what-in-world.html
When I was in 'Nam. Friday, 25 June 2010. Things I'm going to miss: What-in-the-world moments. Or when your extended host family offers you raw pork blood at a party. Or when you first realize that if it ever became necessary, you could indeed buy live bunnies and snakes by the side of the road. Or pussycats. With a regular supply of such moments, I've become rather addicted, and I predict serious withdrawal when I return to the States. I made a facebook album, "Visual metaphors for culture shock". I am ...

What is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life? The strangest food I’ve eaten in Bolivia:. Armadillo. one day when i got home for lunch there was half an armadillo sitting on the fire stove. i was a little hestitant when we started opening up the animal and pulling the meat off its body. although i think it would take me some time to really like it, its juicy unique flavor was interesting to try. Things I encounter on my 20 minute walk into town day:. Working with the wind instruments.

When I was in 'Nam. Wednesday, 9 June 2010. It all started with a true story. FYI: This story is brought to you by Condor Book Tours. Find out more during a live chat with the author. One thing Vietnam and Nicaragua have in common besides bananas, frangipani trees, and me, is war. Specifically, guerilla war. Specifically, dirt poor communist guerrillas fighting the United States of America. The Sandinista revolution is the setting for Bernardo and the Virgin. And it goes something like this:. Until, that...
