Learning The Language



(VIDEO FLASHBACK: My favorite Vietnamese teacher, Linh, teaching me the vowels)

It's been six weeks in 'Nam and the language isn't getting any easier. I'm decent in restaurants and asking for directions but the rest of the time I'm useless. Frankly, I've never been good at learning foreign languages. And by "never been good" I mean that I suck at learning other languages. Here's me in class, back in HCMC, attempting to just say the vowels...
