There's this feeling where I know, I have to write regardless all the duties that needs to be done. That includes the never-ending portfolio book project, web design, packaging design, and few errands such as buying salts and cooking oil. I am in desperate need of those two. Yes, I use loads of salts. I don't get how this country produce the not-so-salty salt. I guess that's how much they pay attention to their health. Not that I'm dissatisfied with the way they make their salts, but it's just everything I take in here is tasteless. O-kay presuming that I go on, this post will most likely end up being a list of reasons why nothing beats the amazingly-oh-so-delicious taste of Indonesian food.
Enough rambling (about salt. Seriously?). Apart from the fact that I can no longer wear flats these days, I loved my weekend. Those three days were well-spent with the faces I don't normally see in weekdays. We all have different majors. I hope that explains. Owing to the fact that the only class I've got on friday is at 8am, I'm pretty much free the rest of the day. So, to me friday is weekend. Same thing occurs on monday. Whereas every single soul in this planet complains about how crappy their monday morning is, 60 minutes starting from 9 is the only time I have to listen to Mr. Sean's lecture and I'm back in bed for the rest of the day. Thus, in 4 out of 7 days, I get freedom (as long as I'm not bothered with any of my academic stuff). How I'm overly fond of this semester's schedule.
Friday
I finally had KFC again after God knows when was the last time I had it. Back home, KFC's paket panas may be my forever-no.1-option when boke-ness strikes, however I absolutely wouldn't consider consuming KFC in that same situation here (I wonder if they still have it in their menu). After almost 3 years living here, not only finding a rubbish bin is rather a difficult task, so is finding a KFC. Therefore, I would say eating KFC here is somehow uncommon. You could either take the subway to Sentum City or transit to Seomyeon and head for Nampo-dong. Those are the 2 places that has KFC and definitely not a destination I often go. There's actually one located in Haeundae, but apparently it has been closed down recently. Thus, that leaves me with only two KCFs in the whole Busan (sigh). Also, KFC back home tastes so much better. Not that I'm being subjective, but taking it back to the health issues, I guess they're putting less vetsin/MSG. Indonesians tend to use loads of it (for the sake of tastiness). And unfortunately, KFC here costs more (sigh again). Long story short, KFC back home is obviously preferable. Wow, a whole paragraph just for a chicken. I'm obsessed.
Saturday
Despite of the heavy rain that was pouring down all day long, the so-called Lee Jae Mo Pizza which is located in Nampo-dong that everyone recommended filled up my belly. We had the bulgalbi and the hot chicken. It was indeed irresistibly tasty, absolutely delicious, fluffy, milky-cheesed, crazy-spicy, satisfying (palu Thor pun jatuh). I still don't get how koreans make sweet potato pizza. Creative, though. I like sweet potato, but anything sweet potato-flavored just doesn't work for me. And ending the rainy saturday with La Petite Gateau's soufflé as a dessert was definitely peerless. Nevertheless I did eat it like I haven't had any meal for the past 2 days. That soufflé didn't even last for 2 minutes on the table. I should unconditionally go back for the sake of the tart.
Sunday
Regardless of the fact I did not shower the whole day, I managed to get off my bed and eat my delivered late-lunch with friends. Yes, the very same people I hang out with the past 2 days. Basically, we had what we had on friday and saturday ; chicken and pizza. Mother nature saved me on this lazy-sunday by combining both, tandoori chicken and pepperoni pizza for the perfect lunch. Clearly, a long nap came next. A really really long one.
I can say, I am gratified.
