Xin Chao Everyone!
I'm finally back to blog. So let me start my first post as I write it here in Saigon. It's a pretty amazing two weeks. I don't know how to start narrating my day-to-day adventures. This is the first idle moment that I can grab to update everything I have online. I do believe you guys are going to look forward on a lot of interesting posts as I chronicle my life here in Vietnam. But I cannot start my stories without telling all of you how happy I was when I left Manila. And there's only one reason-receiving my signed copy of Jme's Ministry of Food and a birthday dedication. The only cook book I brought here in Saigon, from the person who touched my life and who inspires me everyday I wake up. Am I too inspired? Absolutely! And I am truly happy to continue my dreams and journey because of James Trevor Oliver. The best birthday gift in my life so far and on my next birthday, will be off to London!

Sooo proud to have a copy from Jme!
Not just a signed copy book, but a personalized greeting for my birthday! (notice my teary-eyed smile)

Wow, ...already in Vietnam? Huhmn... probably the reason why I haven't received a reply when I sent SMS to your Philippine SIM last week.
I wish you good luck in your Vietnam adventures (I'm looking forward for your future posts), and a very Happy Trip to London! (My Aunt has been working there for more than five years, already.)

Wow you sms me? Yeah my Philippine number is currently off. I am using my Vietnam number already which I posted here. But when I buy another phone, that will be the time I'll on it again.
London might be on Christmas kungkaya na ng budget at kung kayanin ko ang winter. If not, on my next bday 2010.
Btw, I just took the photos myself. Thanks RJ for always reading my blog :-)
