1/28, 12:00 a.m (Vietnamese Time): Yay! Tess and I finally made it. We met our assistant program director as soon as we arrived. She is super nice. Her name is Thai Nga. We call her Nah. We also met the other two girls that were on our flights. Their names are Sheena and Maria. They attend SUNY Geneseo and are originally from India and Columbia. The 5 of us waited for the other group who had missed their connecting flight. Unfortunately, the remaining 6 program members had their luggage delayed cannot receive it until 4pm the next day. When we arrived at the program house it was about 1:30 a.m. We live right in the middle of where locals live. When we arrived some men asked us if we wanted a drink. Thai Nga (Nah) told them off. The program house is nothing like I expected. It is built up of 4 stories. The first story is the kitchen, next is a living room, then bedrooms, classroom and a rooftop with a really cool view. Each person shares a room with their own bathroom.
