nostalgia

well
the title says it all
nostalgia
gee i hope i'm spelling it right..LOL
anyways
why am i writing this?
well technically i can't call it nostalgia because well, it wasn't really me
but
i can still say so because i was still overwhelmed by emotion, by wonder
and awe at how all of this came to be

i've come up with an idea for my PPS (Personal Project Studies...Personal Project)
i'm writing a...
hmm
a "family history"
but it's only on my parents
about how they came to be here in Adelaide, Australia
from Vietnam
it's going ot be called
"Journey to Freedom"
and i'm so exceited
because it's going to be AWESOME

so anyways
before, i was looking for pics to use for my PP
and wow
there are HEAPS and HEAPS AND HEAPS
and they're all so
wow
it's like
WHOA life was so hard back then
and
how did it get to be like this now?
there's so much that we, as this generation, simply can NOT undersnatd
there were photos
of TN over at some island, some refugee camp
and
wow
maaan they look just like us
US as TNTT ADELAIDE
except they were obviously more disadvantaged
but still
the idea was there
they had the same beliefs as us
the same hopes
the same dreams
of being in TN forever
of making it in life,
of changing the world, on a TN basis

and what do you know?
the only difference between us and them
is that they were refugees
and we're not
we're FREE
and they had to get SO far, go thorugh so much just to gain that ounce of freedom, freedom enough to start a TN wherever they went
so we viets, and TN-ians really ARE everywhere
taht's the spirit of TN come to life

another difference?
we didn't have to fight for our lives
jsut to get to TN
they did

wow and they appreciate TN so much more than us
WHY ARE WE TAKING IT FOR GRANTED?!
why are there some ppl in TN who just sit around and DO NOTHING
WHY ARE THERE PPL WHO GO TO TN AND STAND UP IN FRONT OF EVERYONE TO "len phan nganh" THAT THEY DON"T DESERVE?
why do they stand up there
knowing NOTHING
but they're going up to thieu
they're standing up there
in front of the WHOLE ENTIRE DOAN
and can't even line up
properly
they're up there
arms crossed
with a look of I"M TOO COOL TO BE IN TN
WELL UP URS
BECAUSE YOU BETTER APPRECIATE WHAT YO UHAVE
BECAUS EYO UDID NOT HAVE TO FIGHT FOR UR FREKAING LIFE JSUT TO BE HERE

umm
yes
=D
sorry
got a bit carried away
but that's the idea
and this has nothign to dow ith nostalgia LOL
but it's about
TN
and valuing it
shall continue some other time
dinner =D
