How to Introduce Yourself in Vietnamese

Beberapa waktu lalu, ibuku bilang dia sedang mencari jepit rambut untuk membuat sanggul. Hmm.. jepit rambut ini bagusnya kita beli dimana ya? Oya, kita coba cari di toko online yuk! 
Wah yang mana ya yang harus aku beli. Disini ada beraneka macam jenis dan warnanya. Hmm.. oke deh aku coba pilih yang warna netral saja supaya ibuku bisa mudah mencocokan dengan warna pakaian dan tasnya nanti. Oke ini saja! Warna coklat tua dan biru tua. Ya, ibuku pasti sangat senang dengan hadiah kecil ini. 

Wah barangnya sudah datang, yuk kita bungkus kadonya supaya lebih cantik. Ibuku suka warna merah, jadi aku membeli kertas kado warna merah. Mari kita bungkus sama-sama..tada.. Sudah jadi deh! Sekarang kita simpan kado ini di tempat yang aman sampai minggu depan ya. Jangan sampai ibuku melihat hadiah ini. Supaya bisa jadi kejutan untuknya. 

Oke sekarang kita siapkan barang berikutnya. Apakah itu? Tentu saja.. kue ulang tahun! Untuk beli kue ulang tahun ini, sebaiknya kita pergi ke toko fisik. Di dekat rumahku ada toko kue dan roti. Disana ada aneka macam kue ulang tahun dengan harga yang bervariasi. Yuk kita pergi bareng-bareng dan lihat ada apa saja di sana. Wow.. di sini ada kue brownies, kue black forest, kue red velvet, kue keju atau yang biasa sering disebut cheese cake, kue tiramisu, dan masih banyak lagi. Hah Aku jadi bingung mau beli yang mana. Coba aku telepon kakakku dulu ya. 

“Halo, Kak! Ini aku sedang ada di toko kue. Kira-kira mama suka kue rasa apa ya untuk perayaan ulang tahun hari ini?” “Wah… Oke baik kalau gitu. Rasa apapun ya, asalkan tidak terkandung bahan kopi. Sip deh kalau gitu. Kita beli yang kue red velvet saja. Terima kasih. Sampai jumpa nanti. Dadah!” 

Nah, temen-temen! Sekarang kue ulang tahunnya juga sudah siap! Kita beli lilinnya juga sekalian ya. Umur ibuku tahun ini adalah 63. Jadi kita beli angka 6 dan angka 3. Oya, jangan lupa kita keluarkan hadiah yang sudah disiapkan minggu lalu. 

Oke deh, semuanya sudah siap! Terima kasih ya sudah menemaniku!
