A Proper Introduction

Hi guys,

I'm Alvin Truong.

I'm a 16 year old Vietnamese boy in Year 11 at an all-boys selective school in Melbourne, Australia. 

My top goal in life is getting into an undergraduate medicine course, an achievement that would require an outstanding ATAR (a percentile rank based on Year 12 academic performance), acing the UCAT (a fast-paced test required for entry into medicine courses), and excelling in interviews (that would determine if I'm a fit candidate to work in a medical field). That's all boring as fuck and I hope I never talk about that here.

First off, I just want to say that I made this purely on a whim. I saw an instagram post this morning about journaling, and on the way to school I thought: 'why can't I do that?'. Fast forward to 4th period, I spent a productive English class scrolling through these scummy website/blog makers that charge you a left ovary to even talk on the internet. Do not trust Wix.com no matter how many 15 second unskippable ads they throw you on youtube, it's a fucking scam. In the end I found Blogger, and I guess this will have to do.

Welcome to my Alvin Rant. I love dogs to bits, fucking hate the colour yellow, and my rare skill is being able to snooze through my blaring alarm clock on a school morning. This isn't going to be some 'hey digital diary' documenting my life, nor is it some blog illustrating the wonderful highlights of my day (altough I might still do that). This is more like one of those bullshit podcasts you come across after scrolling on youtube shorts for a little too long, and some jacked redneck is talking about how sticking your balls into natural sunlight every day raises your testosterone levels by 40%. Yeah, thats what I kinda want this to be.

To make things clear, I'm not a writer. I'm not aspiring to be one either, but hopefully these posts can somewhat improve my concerning English scores. Somewhere in the future, I hope my multi-millionaire 36 year old self and his hot ass latina wife will be able to get a good laugh out of whatever this dumbass has to say (hi bro). 

Whether your a guy I know from school, a family member who should not be reading this, or someone who somehow wound up here, I hope you enjoy what I write. And please, if you have anything to say, feel free to comment.

Cheers,

Alvin

The Beauty of Fish Sauce

Image
If you ever want to make a 5-star Michelin Masterchef Gordon Ramsay quality asian delicacy, there is only one solution. Fish sauce. Holy shit, when my dad started teaching me how to use fish sauce in cooking, it did absolute wonders. Making pasta? Some fishiness in the pasta sauce never hurt anyone. Stir frying? Chuck the whole bottle in, why not. I know at first glance, fish sauce might just look and smell like shit in a bottle. But trust me, the delicate saltiness and flavour it can add is so fucking majestic. No wonder my mum's cooking tastes better than your average $30 vietnamese restaurant meal, she must be going through half a bottle every dinner. Seriously, if your cooking tastes like complete ass, go get some fish sauce and just drench your whole thing in it. Frying eggs. Baking cakes. Sucking dick. Trust me, put it on everything.
