virgin snow

Virgin Snow is a really cute movie. Story is about a Korean student (Min) that transfers to Japan and falls in love with a pretty Japanese girl (Nanae).

They spend a lot of time together despite the language barrier. Min learns to appreciate art that Nanae so much loved, even making her pottery and learning Japanese to make it easier for her. Min promises Nanae that on the first snow they will go to a special street since it is thought to bring good luck and happiness.

Before they could go, Min had to return to Korea for an urgent matter. When he returned, Nanae was nowhere to be found. Min eventually returns to Korea years later, and they meet by chance at an art museum. Seeing her made him angry that Nanae had left him so abruptly, but he eventually seeks to find the truth behind her disappearance and discovers Nanae had always loved him. Happy ending =)

Chúc ngày Valentine, or celebrate/happy Valentine’s day.

If you are giving a gift you can say:
Toi muốn tặng quà cho người yêu trong ngày Valentine=
I want to offer a gift for my love on Valentine’s day.

There are also previous posts on how to say some other phrases such as I love you, etc…

Valentine’s day is really a western holiday, but it’s a holiday younger Vietnamese might celebrate. Enjoy.

Or Tet in Vietnamese (actually started yesterday oops)^^

2008 Year of the Rat

It is said this year has opportunities with little troubles in general for most signs. Unless your sign is the Rat, it will be a struggle (perhaps for the next 15 years from what I read in a Viet publishing) with incredible rewards for working hard although harsh punishment for laziness. Anyhow, new year! Chance to start over again =)
