Embark on a culinary journey through Vietnam with must-try dishes at CreAsian Wok n' Roll, where every bite is a celebration of authentic taste.

Carmina's dad was craving for Vietnamese and wanted to bring his family have a meal. We are in the area of Brentwood, my dad remembered he used to dine in at  CreAsian Wok 'n Roll . Upon entering there we're a lot of customers and the person asked how many we are seated at the table. The server handed us a menu asked us what we would like to drink. They brought out pitcher of iced water with glasses for us to pour our own water. My dad ordered a grilled lemongrass chicken combo with egg, shrimp, and an egg roll . Family member ordered basil leaf with chicken and garlic rice . Another family member had ordered a large Creation Special soup to share with everyone. Carmina wanted the banh mi sandwiches but unfortunately it wasn't available had to pick something else to eat. I decided to try the string beans with shrimp and included is the plain white rice.

Do you think it is too late to go back to college when you’re in the half of a century?

 

Two days ago I was talking to my friend and she had mentioned to me she woke up having a dream.

In her dream she was a successful lawyer and when she woke up she felt her current job had no challenge to push her forward in looking into her work daily.

Do you think it is too late to go back to college when you’re in the half of a century?

Does anyone you know have place themselves to school at an old age?

My friend felt she wanted to go back to school even if she had counted how many years it would take when she would graduate.

Sometimes in our life we choose a major that we’re unsure what type we wanted and only went based on who we’re dating during our college years.

We never consider or look ahead to see what we’re actually good at when we’re young.

Or who knows we had parents who had meddle in our own career choices saying you’re not good at that field.

Either way we reach a turning point in our career where there is no challenge and direction to go forward.

We put ourselves to think further to see whether the thought of becoming a lawyer would have been a better choice if they had decided upon it years ago.

Or is it just a phase in our life where we’re just not happy at our current employment.

My friend whom I have spoken on the phone is not the only one feeling this way. I’ve come across a lot of my friends they felt they made the wrong choices by working in a company or career they fell for during that time.

When you’re older it is hard to decide whether to stay at you’re current job because you begin to think when you start to retire will you be able to have the savings and earnings till the years to come.

You tend to withdraw from what you want from yourself and confuse whether if you’ve made a wrong decision.

I have friends who have told me that Carmina you’re wasting your time from all the English you know you can be using it somewhere else where you can have an income from it.

I guess I never consider myself lucky to have English my first language and Tagalog became my second.
