Hello to all the members of the VIEX forums,

My name is Chris. Most of you probably don't remember me, but I have been a member here for quite a while. You see, I took a long break from studying Vietnamese, but now I'm finally back. I spent some time reviewing everything I learned from before the break and I'm continuing my learning on the EV website. I hope that I can both learn something and help out on these forums.

A little about me:
-I'm 16 years old and I live in Maryland, in the US.
-I'm a senior in high school and I'm hoping to go to college for music performance.
-I was away all summer because I traveled all over the US in a drum and bugle corps called the "Crossmen" (kind've like professional marching band).
-I take Spanish in school, but Vietnamese is much cooler.
-My best friend is Vietnamese and he just visited his home town, Long Xuyen, last summer. Next time, I'll have to convince him to let me go with him :wink: .

Well, it's nice to be back! Everyone is so friendly here. See you on the forums!

Welcome back TroySoy2

I remember you :) Last time you left us for a music program somewhere right ?

I had been in Long Xuyen. I have a friend family there. It's a small town but food is very good there.

Hi Chris
Just re-reading your post, the town "Long Xuyen" is that down in the Mekong area?
If so, I was there last trip about a month ago. If it is the same place I'm thinking of, ABC is correct the food is great and the people very friendly

Yes, I'm pretty sure that Long Xuyen is the capital of the An Giang province, in the South of Vietnam. I saw your pictures from the trip and noticed that you went there. Very interesting.

Thank you Ern and abc for welcoming me back.

Long Xuyên is the place of birth of my beloved son. In mekong Delta, I love that city the best, even though I had been there only two times.
