We'll see. Tanning... hm... I'd like that. :D Not really a beach person though, I'd rather go rock climbing and I'd love to have someone close to my age travel with us too so it won't be so boring.

Me too. I just watched it and I'm still shocked. It looks so dangerous and noisy. Yet I'd like to ride one of those motorbikes. It looks like fun.

It only looks crazy because it's rush hour and the focus is at one of those circular intersections where 5-7 streets merge together. Everyone is going slow so it's easy to maneuver the bike to avoid collision.

Have you ever ridden one of those motorbikes while visiting Saigon?

Yeah, it was funny. I liked the guy who was sitting next to the guy who was playing the guitar. He was so involved in his singing.

Does anyone know what they were singing about?
Lennye, be our translator.

Yeah, I bought one the first time I went there. And my first experience driving was going through rush hour like that. It was downright heart stopping.

Umm..I didn't know you knew how to ride a motorbike. So cool!
How much did you spend on it? And be honest! I know you just love to waste your money while traveling.

Approximately $600. After playing with it for 3 weeks, I gave it to my half-brother. Maybe I should record a part of my driving video for you...umm....never mind, forget it.

Nevermind??? NEVERMIND?? You're kidding, right?
I'd LOVE to watch it..please, please, please. (I'm beggging)
I'll be harrassing you if you don't do it.
Hey, that reminds me of something...where the hell is Annie's video? I want to see that too.

Người yêu ơi vẫy tay biệt ly
Em cô đơn trên con đường dài
Giọt nước mắt hãy lau thật khô
Vì không muốn thấy em u sầu
Tôi mong em từ nay
Hãy xóa hết tâm tư buồn vương

Người yêu ơi vẫy tay biệt ly
Em thênh thang trên con đường về
Giọt nước mắt hãy lau thật khô
Tình yêu đã tan theo mây trời
Tôi mong em từ nay
Nhìn lại con đường em đi trên
Đầy màu xanh.. u u ....

How am I supposed to understand that? :?

FIVER · Post by **FIVER** » Mon Mar 27, 2006 7:06 am

Oh yeah, I was going to say that too Lalee. I can't understand it. I was trying to find the English translation of it but I couldn't. What the heck are they singing about?

Lalee · Post by **Lalee** » Mon Mar 27, 2006 7:11 am

Yeah. The only thing I know is that Lennye makes a bad translator. Maybe I should include her on my "people who suck on EC" list?

FIVER · Post by **FIVER** » Mon Mar 27, 2006 7:15 am

you're bad! you're gonna get it when she sees what you've said. tsk tsk tsk

*Shrugging* I dunno... It's a love song, that's all I can tell you. I don't know how to translate it into English since Vietnamese and English have different way of express feelings. Our way of expressing feelings is more similar to Chinese; therefore, when we do the translation into Chinese it doesn't sound stupid. However, when we do translation for songs or poems into English, it doesn't sound right to the ears at all. My cousin once said it sounds, "vo duyen thui!"

, which means stinkingly nonsense or nonsense and stinky if you translate it into English.
