Are they like you and me?

Are they like you and me?

Are electricity and magnetism like you and me, 

At first unfamiliar, then slowly intertwined. 

The more we love, the more we long to understand, 

Even the smallest things begin to make sense. 

Electricity and magnetism cannot be apart. 

So could we ever drift away?


PS. Electricity and Magnetism as a University Course

A girl likes winter. It reveals herself

Image
I like winter. Is that so strange and weird to you? I like winter when I was just a little kid. I had no idea at that time but I did know I like the atmosphere during winter. I love we all family members gathered in the warm stove. I like how we tried to make us hot. I like to wear thick jackets, wool hat, scarf and socks. I love Christmas and Lunar New year coming soon in the winter. Having said that, I give a truly special feeling for winter season. Liking winter still exist wherever I go. I studied Bachelor in HoChiMinh City far from my hometown and there is no winter in this place. I felt there must be something missing here and it was true. I miss my hometown and miss the cool air in the winter. It's rare for me to see someone claim that their favorite season in the year is winter. I can tell winter is my favorite. I like the air, the atmosphere. I like to see all people put on their jacket and scarf in the street. Everything seems closer together than ever. A book mention abo...

The quiet girl in the photo

Image
This is one of the few images taken of me when I was a child. I looked like a boy. I remember, perhaps, that I felt a little proud of being different back then. Maybe I was forced to sit still and take the picture, which might explain why I looked scared and quiet. Sometimes I wonder --- was that already a clue that I would grow up to be introverted? I began to feel introverted in high school. Moving from my small, familiar village to a bigger town with more students, many of whom were extremely intelligent, was a shift. I was suddenly in a new environment where I didn't quite know how to belong. That's when I started receiving feedback that I was "different." People had opinions about me, and I was aware of it. But with the enthusiasm of a young girl, and not much life experience, I just kept being myself. I focused on what mattered most to me at that time: my studies. Even though I felt different, I still found comfort in school. It's still a safe place for me i...

Unfinished memories

Unfinished memories The sun begins the day, It shines but feels far away. The air is calm, the sky is wide, But something stirs, unsettled inside. I walk the path we used to know, where memories softly grow. Do I still cross your mind, Even if just for a little while? You chose to walk away, But I still feel you every day. I don't forget the way we cared, All the moments we shared. We once exchanged our every thought, Chatted everything without a second thought. We updated each other, day by day, We missed our voice, our smile, our way. Surrounding you felt like surrounding me, A quiet kind of intimacy. Now I must let it drift away, As if we never met that day.  Unfinished memories remain, Lingering like a gentle pain. Time moves on, and so must I, But part of me still asks why. Why did you draw so near, so fast, Only to become part of the past? Hanoi, June 22, 2025
