spring. Are you going to participate in any traditional festivals?

beautiful tradition!

Person A: Hey! How’s your day going?

Person B: Hi! It’s going oki, thanks! Just finished my classes. How about you?
Person A: Same here! I’m trying to balance my studies and social life. It can be
tough sometimes.
Person B: I know what you mean. Living in Ho Chi Minh City is exciting, but it
can also be overwhelming with all the responsibilities.

support, especially during stressful times.

We talk on the phone every day, though.

me great advice about managing my time.
Person B: Yes, my parents do the same. They remind me to take breaks and not to
overwork myself. Do you get to go home often?

enjoy exploring the city in the meantime.
Person B: Me too! There’s so much to see and do here. Have you discovered any
favorite spots?
Person A: I love going to the parks and trying out street food. It’s a great way to
relax after classes.

studying and hanging out with friends.

break after finishing studying
