The personality is not perfectly accurate from my life. I'm not a really creative person, I used to like drawing in primary but then I realized that my creation was too simple and I could not draw beautifully so I stopped. I never drew any pictures since then, or if it's an assignment I simply drew something that I can pass grades. Moreover, the older I grow, the more introverted I become. I feel shy when I have to speak in front of crowds even though my English is not bad and I practiced a lot to gain confidence. I’m pretty lazy so if it's not something I'm interested in such as cultural dishes, scary movies, fashions, kids, beaches, etc., I won't have any motivation to discover. On the other hand, my independence is one thing I could proudly say. I went to study overseas last year and it's my second year in the US. I live with my sister but we have different schedules so I take care of meals, groceries, and chores. It's tiring but I learn to be more responsible and I can even calm myself since I share rooms with bad-tempered roommates. They are so picky and they judge others even though it's not their business, however, it's such an experience so I must never forget and never put myself in anger again. To sum up, 16 personalities give me more understanding of my personality type and my weakness that I can improve it in the future.

My country is not modern and new-fashioned since it still carries its ancient beauty throughout time. When mentioning Viet Nam, people cannot deny its natural beauty and destinations such as Ha Long Bay, Sapa's terraces, floating markets, night streets, etc. The country is divided into 6 regions, the most popular and crowded region is the northern and the southern part, which is Ha Noi and Sai Gon. My dad is from Sai Gon and my mom is from Ha Noi so my motherland is both of them, but traditionally Sai Gon is my motherland. My family lives in Ha Noi so there are many memories and places in the city. When I'm in bad mood, I always take a ride around West Lake and have some ice cream.]]> 2020-10-04 18:47:11 UTC https://padlet.com/lngo7/kw00qlnc8v4rpc87/wish/801108805 lngo7 https://padlet.com/lngo7/kw00qlnc8v4rpc87/wish/801116076 Many people have asked me for years but I cannot decide who I want to be in the future yet. I have loved making money since I was in 6th grade. I was selling Vietnamese snacks called Cơm cháy- scorched rice and beef jerky. My cousin's husband has an affair, she is a housewife so she is making more money to raise two kids on her own. My mom offered to help at first, but then it was so delicious that my friends asked me to buy it so I decided to help her by selling it at school. I received many good feedbacks that encouraged me to sell them until 7th grade. My father was worried about the food quality even though I ate every day without getting problems. He was mad at me and mom so we stopped selling snacks. Now, besides school, my sister is ordering makeup and skincare on sale prices and selling them in Viet Nam so I help her update the products and post that on the internet. Although I enjoy making money, I’m thinking of opening a small coffee shop or a drinking bar, or maybe a combination.

In the beginning, there is no one living in the area because it's remote and really far from the city center, a 40-minute drive. However, when the area grew constantly and safely, my father decides to move there because it's more convenient to get to his work. Every house is built the same as each other so there is nothing special about it. Nevertheless, the area is fully equipped with gyms, swimming pools, stores, a coffee shop, and many other conveniences. There many many trees and spaces for plants. My mom plants plenty of fruits, vegetables, and flowers around the house. There are many families with kids living in the area so they also build small playgrounds, there is one right behind my house. My cousins used to visit at the weekend so I usually took them to the playground or the coffee shop. I love swimming and I usually spend time at the pool to exercise and go to the convenience store and get some snacks every weekend.]]> 2020-10-04 18:56:34 UTC https://padlet.com/lngo7/kw00qlnc8v4rpc87/wish/801118135 lngo7 https://padlet.com/lngo7/kw00qlnc8v4rpc87/wish/801122108 I love sports and played sports since I was 8. I learned swimming, playing tennis, playing badminton, cycling, and rollerblading. I still enjoy sports because it helps me to stay in shape and healthy. Besides sports, I spend hours watching movies in English subtitles to improve my grammar and speaking as well. The horror and action movies are my favorite, even though I never dare to go to the toilet alone late at night. I love babies and I used to watch my cousins when they were small. These days I'm watching some Korean shows about kids and it's really entertaining.

To be honest, I used to be addicted to my phone and I could go online all day long and chat with my friends without going out or sleeping. However, the older I turn, the less I spend my free time on the phone. I realize that I spent too much time for a phone more than my friends and family. Technology is like medicine, it helps you get better but it can drive you insane without control. ]]> 2020-10-04 19:04:58 UTC https://padlet.com/lngo7/kw00qlnc8v4rpc87/wish/801127004 lngo7 https://padlet.com/lngo7/kw00qlnc8v4rpc87/wish/801131931 Northern region vs Southern region]]> 2020-10-04 19:09:56 UTC https://padlet.com/lngo7/kw00qlnc8v4rpc87/wish/801131931 lngo7 https://padlet.com/lngo7/kw00qlnc8v4rpc87/wish/801138778 The aspect of my identity that I both love most and proud of is our cuisine. People can easily recognize the plates which belong to Asian cuisine through its decoration and taste. When mentioning about Viet Nam, people come to visit for two reasons, the breathtaking landscape, and Vietnamese food. Most dishes are not difficult to cook and I learn to cook them when in secondary school. The secret in our food is the spices and herbs that are used to cook; plus its decoration brings it to the upper level. Even though I love Viet cuisine, there are still many dishes I cannot eat such as durian, smelly shrimp paste, raw blood pudding, etc. Traditional bowl called Pho and other dishes have been brought widely to many European countries and I feel proud of Vietnamese cuisine]]> 2020-10-04 19:16:59 UTC https://padlet.com/lngo7/kw00qlnc8v4rpc87/wish/801138778 lngo7 https://padlet.com/lngo7/kw00qlnc8v4rpc87/wish/801143315 Normal Vietnamese family meal]]> 2020-10-04 19:21:51 UTC https://padlet.com/lngo7/kw00qlnc8v4rpc87/wish/801143315 lngo7 https://padlet.com/lngo7/kw00qlnc8v4rpc87/wish/801143589 Traditional food tray of a year-end party in Vietnamese families]]> 2020-10-04 19:22:08 UTC https://padlet.com/lngo7/kw00qlnc8v4rpc87/wish/801143589 lngo7 https://padlet.com/lngo7/kw00qlnc8v4rpc87/wish/801147371 My childhood is joyful with plenty of painful and exciting moments. I'm a careless person that when I was younger, wherever I went or whatever I touched, I would cause trouble or hurt myself. I was so active that no one could catch me or stop me in time to prevent damages. It was quite hilarious that I have no idea how I ended up with those bruises. I lived with my parents but they are too busy so my grandparents always picked me and my sisters up after school. I remembered my grandpa loved me the most. I have been overweight since I was 6, my mom never gave me snacks and I was forced to do a low-carb diet when I was 8 or 9. However, my grandpa was always slacking and he always brought me snacks after school. I was delighted but I was afraid of my mom so much that I denied him most of the time unless I was craving for it. Now I regret denying all those good snacks, I am in the US and my grandpa is in Viet Nam.  Although we are not as close as before, whenever we meet, he always offers me snacks.
