Hello everyone, after a longt time i have joined this site from amusing face to disappointed face now i would like to share some things.
It is hard to find a website that we can stuck with it for a long time like msn/Y!M/Gmail...i used to think this site will give me new things and talk with people from around the world, in other words, enlarge my knowledge as it is one of my targets in life. There are some things here that make me a little bit tired..but anyways, I am still here, still talk, still live a mental life.
I always think of myself as a simple but full of conflicts. 100% Vietnamese, black hair, black/dark brown eyes/medium tall ( for most Asian standard), nothing more about my race, so u do not need to wonder much about "zurich", now u know I'm not Swiss, not from Switzerland at all and especially my name is not "sehne", like a German word.
I am college student, major in Business English as i tell u in my description ( see the right side of this window). I always try hard to enrich my intellectual knowledge as much as possible, anywhere, anytime, but plz do not misunderstand i am a work hard student. I used to be when i was in highschool, not much now.
u should know that one serious person may be interesting/funny/full sense of humor//...sometimes, not always but i think he/she is a good person to talk with because at least they are here for some good reasons at first, not just want to chat bulshit things...
u can guess who i am now but one imprtant thing is that what i have just said does not sometimes work with me. Hm, think like u can give others ur suggestions/advice for their own circumstances but if u were in their positions, you might act differently what you advised them...
That's all. Enjoyed reading? Maybe not, but it's ok. It ends right now.

Happy Spring festival! Happy Tet! Happy new year 2009!
U will wonder why i said that. Vietnam, also China, follows lunar calendar besides solar calendar in western countries. That’s why we celebrated new year, our main new year, lately abt one month. That’s tradditional custom when we have 2 weeks for tet holiday. As the habit of other ppl, everyone from anywhere would come back their home for preparing coming new year. I was so excited when i came back my hometown on Dec.,22th. That was really great time when i could be with my family.
There’s not many differences between the lunar calendar and solar calendar. Lunar calendar that means we count date time following the movement of The moon around The Earth. The date that we usually use everyday bases on the movement of the Earth on The Sun’s orbit. But not like solar calendar, lunar calendar is not stable and may change every year. For ex, we can celebrate new year ( the 1st day of new year) in lunar calendar while the date of solar calendar may be on Feb, 26th like this year.
I’m not sure wht ppl who almost from western countries would do in new year but in Vietnam there’s a lot of things to do. We also redecorate our houses to welcome coming new year, have big meal on the day of new year Eve and following days as well. We stay with other members of our family to wait for new year or go out/ walk around the city or even stand near special places where we can see fireworks at 0.00 am. That’s really great time, i’m sure u feel that,too. Everyone all welcomes new year and hopes good things. The 1st day of new year,the Vietnamese usually spend time visiting pagodars/temples to pray for lucks and prosperty. And it’s also the time for visiting our relatives staring with old ppl in our family like grandparents, parents, uncles, aunts. Etc.The following days r time for friends/ collagues...We can hang out, visit each other. But not always likes that, it depends and can be changed.All commercial activities r not working anymore. Then they ( business ppl/ companies..) will choose someday in new year that they consider as lucky day for new starting ( khai xuan). The streets seems to be empty not like usual days.
One day is for “hoa vang” that means the day is to make everything be usual, no tet anymore. We dont have to prepare many things to “ancestors”( who died) in altar anymore. (i think it’s good for housewives as well when they’r really hard for preparing meals for whole family :)). On that day, there’s a big big meal so that everyone ( usually, relatives or best friends who r invited) to taste.
It’s special holiday that we expect most. The time for family and friends especially for those who r far away from home for a long time to take time come back......
