Welcome back to my Ulog.
This is my 5th Ulog, you know, in my previous post, I had a long day tired of my studies, and today was a long day for me, quite tired and I decided not to do anything else, I would spend two hours writing Ulog about my day.
Today my mother called me to teach her very early, at 5am my phone rang. My mother called me up and told me to go buy breakfast for the whole family.
Wow, I was really amazed at the beauty of dawn in the morning. Fresh air, quiet space makes me feel very strange. Perhaps because I have never enjoyed this feeling. Immediately I took the phone and captured this memorable moment.
Then I went to the market to buy breakfast, I was surprised again before the noise of the bustle of early morning support. At that time the market was still empty, the vendors were displaying their belongings, they made very fast, perhaps they hurry to be able to sell more goods in the early morning.
People are very busy
At that time I was thinking what food to buy for everyone, I looked around and "here" I have found breakfast for my family.
There are quite a lot of choices for me. A lot of delicous food. I'm confused between them.
This is "Chung cake", sticky rice, donuts ....
This is a vermicelli, it looks like curled wool
This is a "Bánh Cuốn" (I do not know how to name it in English) HAHA
Thinking for a while and I picked up the rolls, my mom and my brother liked it.
About 5:30 am, I buy food for my family. After breakfast we start work one day. Today we go "Tea pick", you probably do not know "Tea pick" is not right? The fresh tea pack that you are drinking, that is the tops of this tea, picked and processed through many stages. I will probably review you the "tea" processing steps in my next post. Now we ignore it
This is my tea garden
This is my sister, you can see she is picking tea.
We started work from 6am to 11am, we were off. The 40 degree sunshine made us pretty tired, very hot, as if I was standing in the middle of a crater.
I just want time to pass quickly to get me off early. At the end of the day, I had more time off work than anyone else to cook my family. Around 11.30 we eat rice and then rest, preparing for the spirit of sunny afternoon
Just like in the morning, at 2pm I and the rest of the people started work. We work until 6.30pm.
Hm, the heat makes me tired. Today I have to learn English. The school is 25km away from my house and I have to ride a motorbike there. No time to eat dinner, I have to go right or else I will learn late.
At 7:30 pm, I was present at the classroom. I feel more motivated to learn with my friends.
At 9 pm, the class ended and I returned home, it took about an hour to get home. At home, my mother and my brother are still working.
That is my mother and my brother, they are processing tea to make tea packages for you to drink every day
I love my mother very much, because to take care of me, she has to work so hard. You would not imagine that hard work when my mother had to work from morning until 11 pm with the heat like burning fire on the big oven.
The temperature of 40 degrees today and sitting right next to this stove is indeed a torment. But we were happy to be there, because to feed us today, my mother had to sit there a lot of times. You understand that?
I thought a long day was over, but when the work was finished, my home machine was broken. It was 11 o'clock at night, we did not know what to do, everyone was going to sleep, I was so tired and my mother too, I realized that on my mother's face. Without any help, we had to do the job of that machine.
Damn it, it's broken when I need it
In the end, everything was done, my mother was able to rest. I decided to spend 2 hours writing Ulog for today though it was 11:30 pm. There will probably be so many hard days like this, but looking at my mother, I see everything is nothing compared to the hard work of mother. I write this article not to complain about my tiredness today, which I would like to remember, my mother's struggles. One day when I am growing up, I will let my child read this article so that he or she knows that his grandparents are the most wonderful people in the world.
