Updates (Sept 19, 2025)

I remember when I was young watching food shows or real life TV series of people travelling across North America scoping out places to see and do and visit and relax.

Now I am their age or maybe older.

That is the funny thing of life. You marvel in the minds and interests of others when you are young in your teens.

Then suddenly you find out you got old too.

Then you realize you kind of did what you wanted too as a coloured person born in the West …

Maybe not on TV but still you have some interests and grew some hobbies.

…

Seeing people do food reviews at 50-60 years old is odd.

I am almost that age.

The yesteryears food reviewers from the 1990s-2000s are either retired or …

Yes, I am getting old.

Then you see yourself in their shoes. Inches away …

…

I realized something about Vietnamese.

The identity of Vietnamese women are strong I think.

Best not to disturb what they are doing.

They have their ideas, views and claims.

The Vietnamese women are together in their own frequency band wave ???

They have the power to shape and control.

…

Then you realize the Vietnamese women born in Canada/West …

They are different from the Vietnamese women from Vietnam.

…

Also there is this “Vietnameseness” that some Vietnamese hold to care and build each other up.

…

Some Vietnamese women take part in the ‘Vietnameseness’ and build their fellow Vietnamese men up. Is it right? ‘Up’ is the right direction really …

Where are we going ???

…

As I grow, I am noticing other Vietnamese people notice me.

But this is a natural thing. People get old and realize the world more plain and simple and more.

That is the problem of being young and so wanting.
