Don´t you admire such beauty?

For this very post, I am replying two memes – `8 random facts about you´ and `The Fantastic 4´. If I remember correctly, I have been tagged by Myriam, Arfi, Wendy and KJ. And yes, I still have some other memes to complete, but it´ll be for another coming post…
Tracking down my memory lane, here are the things I come up with…
4 jobs I´ve had in my life
I have never had a full-time job. But I do hope the following counts as job somehow…
#1 Nanny: I used to take care of my sister and cousins during summer holiday when I was 14-17. Duties included preparing lunch and playing with all of them. Kids can be really naughty, but I love being around them!
#2 Student: This is the longest `job´ that I have had!
#3 Teacher/Assistant lecturer/tutor: Teaching is something I particularly enjoy. However, my idea of teaching and education has changed a lot ever since I start teaching seriously in university. For some reasons, I feel the real lack of teaching value in some places, and that does disturb me.
#4 Waitress: for a very short period but totally enjoying since I learn a lot. And the people I met there were a lovely crazy bunch!
4 places I have lived
I don´t think I can come up with 4 places as yet. I grew up in Hanoi, came to Melbourne for study and have lived in Melbourne mostly ever since.
4 places I have been on holiday
#Beijing: A place with adorable and timeless historic value. I would love to vist Beijing again for a longer time.
#Bangkok: Lovely people, lovely food and traffic jam! Oh, the orchids there were nice!
#Singapore: where I first tasted and fell in love with durian!
4 of my favourite foods
#Noodles & Pasta: I can live on these forever
4 places I would rather be right now
#Back home in Hanoi with my parents and sister!
#In a small café near Hoan Kiem lake and enjoy a small cup of Vietnamese coffee with all my friends.
#In some café along Ormond Rd then a long walk along Elwood Beach with my camera.
#At home, with some light music, a cuppa and a book.
interesting! thanks to share….we are same dream the place i would rather be is in jakarta with my hubby, parents, and family
home sweet home…
Beautiful photo! Here in New England, the leaves will be changing color in a month or so, and it will be Fall.
Spring indeed!!!Loved knowing more about you…
What abeautiful photograph
Lovely picture and nice personal tidbits, Ahn.
What a beautiful flowering tree.
That’s a lovely shot, Anh. While you have Spring to look forward to, I can’t wait for Summer to leave here!
its so nice to know you Anh, very short and cute MEME.
I can still remember my very first spring in France … it’s so beautiful to walk down the street and see flowers blooming at every corner. You just feel like life is so beautiful and wonderful that you forget all your problems.
What a stunning photo! Its late summer here, and so hot that I’m looking forward to fall’s arrival. Enjoy your spring! I love reading the bloggers’ memes, its always fun to know more about the person on the other side of the screen.
Yes, Anh, that is beauty to be enjoyed.
I think that is the most stunning photograph I have seen on your blog. I simply LOVE it!
Lia, I understand how you feel…
If choco is ur weakness then probably u should consider me making ur best friend as I dont eat choco so u get all my portion :)
Great fun to read a bit more about you. I was a nanny too – quite a bizarre experience at times here in NYC. That’s a lovely photo.
Beautiful photographs! I must admit I spend a lot of time drooling over the Vietnamese food section. Wish we had some in Tuscany
I love that pic . I come here just for your pics.
That’s a sensational photo, Ahn.
Oops, I’m sorry, I inverted the h and n in your name.
I have a picture with the same flowers!! and I love the vibrant pink…sigh! nature is beatiful, and so was your post!
Elwood beach is one of my most favourite places as well!
I’m new to your blog and I’m blown away by your pictures. This one is particularly gorgeous. (I started to comment and then had to go back for a second look. Once was not enough!)
Oh, Anh, that photo is soooooooooooo beautiful!!!
