When I have free time, I usually go out with my family, my friends, or my co-workers. One of trips which I am the most rememberable goes to the central of Vietnam with my family. My family visited in here for 3 years ago when I just graduated in the university. Certainly, I was so amazing when saw the wonderful sceneries in here. I visited the old capital of my country which was elapsed for 100 years ago. Then, we went Phong Nha cave, this place, for me, may be the most beautiful scenery which I used to see. A relaxing and pleasant feeling appeared in my heart because of its peace. The second trip which cause a deep impression go to Lang Biang mountant in Da lat with my co-workers. We camped at the bottom of this mountant, after it took more than 2 hours to us climb to the top mountant. We shivered with cold air in here, however it didn’t make us to lose enthusiasm. In the evening, we sang and danced around a fire, and played many traditional games. We slept a rainy night in outside, although it was very cold, we still felt warm. The third trip which I am also interesed so much went to the western of Vietnam. My friends and I drove 8 hours by motobikes from our homes to here. All of us felt very tired when came this place. We visited my friend and she cordially welcomed us. We was walking around Can Tho city which was downtown of the western in the invening. Especially, foods was very cheap and delicous, and citizens in here was so friendly. In the next morning, we had to get up so early, and then we rented a boat to go to the river market. This market was only commerce in the early morning in 4-5 am, and all buying or selling also preformed in the river. We ate many kinds of fruits because the western supply rice and fruits to my country, and export. In spite of so tired, we were very enjoyous and relaxing. Having many other trips for me are very interesed, but three trips, which I told above, are my best favorite trips. Because my enjoying is traveling, I usually spend my leisure time with this activity. I feel that it help me not only to ralax but also to cement my relationships with my family, friends, and co-workers.

I think that a thing which I could'nt do during Spring break is having not yet gone Hollywood. My friend and I arrived in Los Angeles, then we visited China Town, and Santa Monica beach in the last week evening. But we did'nt have enough time to Hollywood, we regreted that missed. The remaining thing which I did'nt complete was I did'nt study so hard. In my studying schedult, I had to learn Engish at least 4 -5 hours/day, but I could'nt and my schedult was smashed up. I don't know what is the reason in spite of stayed at home almost time. I am a lazy man.

Yesterday, I heard a bad news of my friend. Her dad suddenly died to result in a heart trouble. I feel so amazing and hurt because I remember before I had arrived in the US, I visited him and his health was so well. Similarly, I am worried about my health of grand mom and parents, they are aged and I don't entirely hope that a similar situation will happen.
My grand mom loves me so much. She cried many times when she knew that I decided to study abroad, and until now. When I lived in Vietnam, although I was mature, she always took care me. She would be willing to cook any food which I like and to reserve parts of best for me. In my heart, I love her, too. I usually converse with her, take her to visit a doctor or to go some places which she enjoys. Now, I can not beside and take care her, but I always wish she would be wealthy and fun. I hope to come back my home in the end of this year in order to visit her and know that she is still well. Truthfully, I will always miss her and pray for her having a good heath. Besides, I will do the same things to my parents and all of members of my family, too. Finally, I want to say I love them.
