Huong, thanks for putting pics up of your school and your room! Haha, your desk is bigger than your bed, you must be able to organize so much! Thank you for keeping us all up to date, I love reading about all your experiences and seeing all the pictures. Stephanie and I were discussing how it makes us feel really antsy to travel, after reading all of our friends' blogs!! Talk to you soon, Cheers!! :)

scary guy
u remember the Scary Guy from ur frosh (and my sixth grade) yr, he came to assemblies... well, the "scary" thing i found about him is that he came from a place that helped fire up his anti-discrimination methods even more: Macalester... then four years after seeing him, you came into that same school...
