Child Unrushed.

I've had fried chicken twice this week.
I think it's time for me to workout.

Interestingly enough tho, I've also been able to study a little more this weekend which was nice.
I even made breakfast this morning with my home grown plants.. Uh... again I forgot the photos but I made:


  1. Fried mushrooms with onions, garlic and rosemary
  2. Omelette with roasted peppers
  3. Potato wedges with dill 
  4. Cucumber and Wakame salad in sesame oil, lemon juice, and soy sauce
It was so nice to have woken up at a good hour of the day and make food without having to worry about rushing to some place... It was nice to actually use all of my kitchen in it's fullest capacity and to just enjoy the yummy food I made for myself.

I also briefly checked out the bazaar that was going on in my area and saw the Hanbok (traditional Korean outfit) inspired dress that I had been eyeing for a REALLY long time. Sidenote, you know how they say that if you sleep on the potential purchase and still REALLY want it for a really long time, then you should get it? It's funny cause I was recently (as in a couple days ago) thinking to myself that I should get the dress if I see it again. So when I saw it today, I got to try it on.

AND!

I ended up walking away from it. 
One, it wasn't cheap. It was 99,000won which is about $95 and
Second, not only was it a little tight around my elbows BUT
Third, it was a little shorter around the shoulders (granted I did have a T-shirt on but it really shouldn't be THAT significant of a difference. 
Fourth, the lady says she only makes clothes in ONE size.
Fifth, it was 99,000won.. wait, I already said that. BUT seriously


WHUT




What a shame.
Even after so long of not being able to sell it, she still wouldn't part with it at a lower price.
(I actually had fallen in love with it in once in July-ish, then again in November, and then today was just a little disappointing)


But anyway, I came home tonight after studying & finishing half my essay, to this and man... I got goosebumps. 




Not sure bout you but me gots some major goosebumps



DAMN.

Enough bout me tho, how was YOUR weekend?




























hi. how was your week(end)? Good, I hope.

Win Win Liao?

Today was pretty productive work wise.

It was the day post exams and so it was slightly more chill. Needless to say, I had fun in class.
After class, I made a delicious lunch of which I took no photos of but I shall describe it to you:

Lunch:
Fish fried in non spicy chilies, tempoyak, and mom's homemade sambal (THANK YOU MOMMA).
I also had beef broth marinated in some leftover kimchi.

&

for Dinner:
Squash, carrots, onions cubed, fried with sesame oil and salt over hot rice. Again, no photos cuz I was FAMISHED.

Then I went to a cafe, sat myself down and worked on my script for work tomorrow. The research was not as time consuming but trying to arrange my thought was insanely time consuming. Yesterday during my speaking test, the teacher who has been my teacher since last semester told me that my biggest problem with writing in Korean (granted prolly English too) is that I have TOO many things going on in my head. I'm just constantly expanding on my thoughts. I swear. Just one thing. ONE thing, the moment my brain latches onto it, it's full throttle. Imagine a giant oak tree of thoughts growing on steroids. HAHA. SO that was that.

But then as usual when I send out my regular daily thoughts to my Whatsapp buds, I got into a discussion with a friend which to me kinda just branched all over the place. As I just mentioned above, my thoughts are all over the place and so in the process of organizing it, I just end up sticking to the original topic, basically leaving the discussion hanging (I'm now starting to see a not-so-flattering trend in my life). So yeah, my friend let me win the discussion and I felt like ass afterwards. No, not the soft round bum, but the adjective you use to describe people who are the equivalent to the bi-product that exits said body part. Because...



is a term used when the human you're having a discussion with is egoistic and always wants to win the discussion. *points at self & grins nervously*


















how are you doing today? I kinda miss having you as my mealtime buddy... ):

Eggs

When I was a little kid, we had a maid who would make me these omelettes with cut chilis and it was basically my favorite omelette ever.

After she left us, I would often crave it and could never ever recreate it.

But today. That all changed. Not only did I make the exact replica, I also had Bacon in it.

Feeling so fucking accomplished right now. Mini success from all the not so pleasant feels lately.

Unfortunately I was too hungry and half awake to bother with a photo.  Next time, I promise.

A goal that is WAY over 10 years old, achieved by a half awake Kim in her jammas.  Dream on, babies.

Who Knew?

Okay my hands are shaking. I don't think that's really normal. Why? 

Cause I'm hungry. Absolutely famished.

I had a pretty good lunch I would say. Fried rice porridge haha. Weird as it sounds, it was really good. It was Kim's own homemade fried rice, thrown into her homemade vege soup, with some fried bak choi on the side. YUM. Took a while to eat cause it was piping hot, and by the end of it, I was happy with a fully belly. But now, 4 hours later, I'm shaking in hunger and calming down my empty stomach with an orange and a cereal drink.

They say coffee is an appetite opener, but as far as I was concerned, only black coffee could do that. Boy was I wrong. I downed an afternoon coffee today cause I was struggling to keep my eyelids open. An hour later, I'm here, writing this post. Haha.

Moral of this story:
1. Don't drink coffee on an empty stomach, it might make you hungrier.
2. Get some snacks ready if you are.


Oh, and Happy Single Awareness Day to all of you! (: Valentine's Day should be celebrated everyday in my opinion. So tell everyone around you that you love them, everyday!
