Graduation! Oh yeah! We are finally finished! These last two weeks were very busy. I just finished writing pages of recaps and journals for the class so I don't feel like going into all the boring details, but I passed my Vietnamese test and completed all the student teaching tasks that they required of us. I am now ready to start applying for jobs. I'm not all that excited to start that grueling process, but maybe it won't last long.
I will be staying in the hotel that I have been in since we got here in Vietnam. It's a nice place with great service for about 16 dollars a day. I've created a couchsurfing account just in case; I also have my tent if all else fails, I saw some really interesting places in the urban utopia of District 7 (no joke, this place looks like it was designed in SecondLife or something). They say that it is cheap to live there as well because it is a little ways from downtown. You can get a really nice brand new 2 room apartment for $400 a month in a district that is closer to downtown. I'm not sure what you can get in one that is further out.
We ate at the Indian restaurant for our graduation dinner, oh yeah! LeAnn and I had to stake it out the other night to see if it was going to be any good. It was. It's so much more appetizing to me than noodles in a bowl of dishwater -- sorry thats what pho has started to look like now, especially when you always see people eating it on the sidewalks and then see the ladies washing the dishes in the street.
I don't feel like partying for my graduation. I feel like sleeping. Phew! What a month!
Sad to see our California friends head home for a few months. It was nice to have them here.
