<p>Here’s the intro of an draft I wrote. Won’t be using this essay so feel free to steal haha.</p>

Lying outstretched in the backseat of the rental van, my mind loosened the last strands of stress from the previous school year. Lured by my aunt’s promise of an unforgettable vacation, I decided to accompany her on her trip to Vietnam. My expectation of a silent spot on the beach with a constant supply of coconut juice was shattered when my aunt unveiled her plans as we landed in Vietnam. We were not going to enjoy our week basking under the tropical sun. Instead, my aunt was taking me to a village that was home to people who many deemed as vermin – the leper colony.

I was almost hit by a pencil sharpener. A few pens, rulers, and a stapler came flying afterwards. I glanced around, and then continued reading about the properties of exponents. But whatever focus I had was lost due to their loud discussion of the latest HALO video game, sprinkled with a few colorful words here and there. When I looked up again, I had to duck. My classmates, standing at opposite ends of the room with sinister laughs, began throwing school supplies at one another. The teacher, with his thick Vietnamese accent, shifted his exhausted attention from the contest to the boy who was writing something obscene on the board. Finally, the bell served its dual purpose, ending the class period as well as the chaos. That was a typical day in my Algebra I class.

One by one, our dishes came: tender barbecue pork marinated in spicy sauce, grilled salmon in teriyaki sauce, fried beef and egg over rice, followed by colorful little side dishes. Everyone, their chopsticks colliding, eagerly reached for the meatiest pork rib, the juiciest sliver of beef. The feast had begun. I ate my tofu and pickled cabbage quietly. Remind me next time not to suggest a Korean BBQ restaurant.
