May 13

Today was probably the easiest day that we’ve had so far in Vietnam.  We started off at UEF where we had a culture lecture and language class.  In language class, we played a bunch of games to make sure we had perfected our number speaking ability.  It was fun even though we got very close to tackling each other in order to win one game.  Our day was cut short because the company visit we had scheduled was cancelled, so we were able to just hang out for the rest of the day.  It was nice to have all of that free time because we were able to just relax and rest, and I think we all needed that.  We went out with the Vietnamese students to a club again at night.  The club was called Apocalypse Now and it is the most popular one in Ho Chi Minh.  It was a lot of fun, and we danced most of the night.  I think I like the first club that we went to better because this one seemed just a little bit sketchy with all of the people there.  The music was really loud as well, and so many people were smoking cigarettes that you could tell that you were inhaling a lot of secondhand smoke.  Overall, it was a pretty cool adventure but I think we can find much better places to go and have fun.

Things I learned:                                                                                    
People will do anything to win in something, even if there is no prize to it.

Many old guys were at the club again.  However, at this one many young women accompanied them.  I don’t understand why someone would like to date a girl that is probably the same age as their daughter.
