Travel


                 I'm strongly agree with Mark Twain "Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindlessness." Why people do love traveling; in visible side, it's completely satisfy human curiousness. They want to see, look, taste and experience diverse things that they never know or think before; and even lucky they find the new land as Christopher Columbus. In invisible side, people learn from it and fight for their rights. For example, people against racial discrimination in every country; and women talk more about women's rights nowadays. Because you do not go, do not see so you do not fight. Old generation lose the chance to fight for their freedom out of prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindlessness because they have little chance to travel and see what they deserve to have.

                 St. Augustine said, "The world is a book, and those who not travel read only one page." Thus, I am so grateful to be born in modem time, when the war has already stopped. I have more chance to travel and study around Asia, Europe, America so I am asking for equal rights between men and women. Even though, I still see and hear unfair things in some country, yet I understand which culture has their own rule, own trait. That make life more colorful to discover, yet the only one thing is people there dare to fight or accept.

Advanced Composition's Blog

               Hi, everyone. My name is Kathy. I have been in America for five months. It is hard to live in new culture, adapt so many new things, even the thing that was not familiar with Asian culture such as sending your parents to Nursing home because you have no time to take care of them when they getting old. Except sending parents to nursing home, the others stuff I will try to adapt such as driving, speaking English each day, joining some clubs at CSUF, and so on.

              I graduated BA in Hospitality and Tourism Management in Singapore. Then, I worked six months at Hilton Singapore at Banquet department. After that, I went back Vietnam and worked at Park Hyatt Saigon as receptionist at Front Office department. I loved Hospitality but it quite hard to find MBA about my major in the United State, so I am quite confuse, am I continue with MBA or choose another major? I do love children and dog, so I am thinking to learn something related to those. I appreciate as if you give me some advice. The last thing i would say: Nice to meet you all, my friends.
