Vietnam

I'm not going to start writing about all that happened in Vietnam just yet. one, it's 3:40am. Two, I'll make too many mistakes trying to write it all on here. I'll just mention some crazy things that happened.

1. My sister and I took our niece to Dam Sen the day before we came back to the US and saw this lady throw a fit over spring roll dip and service and 60.000 VND. So apperently she had bought 60.000 VND worth of spring rolls. She had a bowl of noodles in one hand and the plate of spring rolls in the other so she asked the chick making the spring rolls to scoop her some sauce for the spring rolls. The chick says back, "you do it, i'm busy with other people," when there wasn't anyone else there. The lady then shoots back saying that she didn't beg for the food and she just asked to get somehting.. blah blah blah. there was a lot of shouting back and forth about this shit here is self serve, you do it yourself, i gotta do shit over here, what the hell are you talking about, there's no one else here for you to help! Give me back my 60 nghin right now, no i don't want the spring rolls i want my money back, give me back my 60 nghin. she then brings her husband into it and he starts arguing with the guy that works there. it looked like the worker was trying to stay calm but the husband was just not hearing it. then her friends show up and she tells them about it and i see them walk toward the booth too. it was crazy, i didn't want to get any food there afterwards.

2. it was during the first week me and my sister were in Saigon, our friend took us to this irish bar where we had irish car bombs. he then took us to this other bar that was country theme called seventeen saloon. The uniform was blue plaid and frills. the guys had cowboy hats and the girls had on half tops. Well there was this insanely drunk chunky European dude that was really getting into the music and started to bounce one of the stools up and down so the guys working there tried to calm him down. one guy tells him to stop and another takes the stool away from him. he was pretty ticked off when that happened so he shoves the waiter dude. the waiter guy shoves back. the dude that stopped him in the first places tries to stop it and the big old European dude with a creepy mustache charges him and pushes him pass where i am to the other side of the room then the guy that he was shoving before charges toward them with his elbow in the air ready for like a hammer strike or something. a few punches were thrown and then a bunch of the other workers along with some customers rush in the stop it. They finally had 3 guys push the one hot headed drunk European white guy out. I watched this in awe. This was my first bar fight it was amazing. =)

I wish I could've written this better but it's getting really late and I don't feel like proofreading it.
