Sorry lol I just wanted to personalize my blog a bit more so, I ended up uploading failure raps I like to make when I feel really strange :S Its a way to distract myself =D
Feel free to laugh at it =P I am not a pro and will never be one lol but I just like doing crazy stuff
Hey Master Panda. Well, about the beat, I just made a movie out of it :P So, I couldn't really send it to ya. So, I just made a blog post on it. Enjoy! Well, it was my first song so it was not that great but my friends loved it. :P
For some reason I made a blog about the Korean cows! and Alena reminded me of Korean BBQ. Yes Alena I am going to ramble about how Korean BBQ rocks and I think they are better then anything (well thats a lie). Anyways Korean BBQ have different sorts of meat and taste. So, saying you hate BBQ means you hate eating any sort of meat :P
So.. I'll just give you guys a list.
1. 차돌배기 sounds like cha dol bae gi. Direct translation is car rock slicing. Nope nobody is going to give you cha dol bae gi if you ask for car rock slicing. It doesn't even make sense in english :P. Cha dol bae gi is thin slices of beef. We eat it with salt with sesame oil. Like all meat we eat it with a lettuce wrap with chili sauce. The best thing about this meat is that you really get to taste the freshness of the meat. Recommended for people who love meat and the taste of the meat itself.
2. 양념갈비 aka LA Ribs? I am not sure but anyways these are the normal BBQ that everyone talks about. Its one of the most common type of meat. They come in two different type of meat. Either beef or pork. Obviously beef will be more pricy :S . But, pork doesn't taste bad at all. The meat is seasoned with soy sauce, onions, sugar, and tenderized by fruits. Well, I could give you guys the recipe if requested . La ribs are sweet and enjoyed by many.
3. 꽃등심 Kot Deng shim. Direct translation is flower sirloin. This is another recommendation for meat lovers. Its just meat over fire like Cha dol bae gi. BBBBUUT, Kot deng shim has bigger slices. Still, we eat them the same way as Cha dol bae gi. We use salt with sesame oil.
4. 삼겹살 Pork belly. This is probably the most common! Well, its also the most affordable meat. But, Koreans love it. We eat it like cha dol bae gi. The best thing about pork belly is that we can fry Kimchi on the pork oil. God... fried kimchi taste so good. So, if you like kimchi and pork. Get your car and drive out to a Korean restaurant.
This was just a general overview of the type of meat you can order in Korean restaurants. Most restaurants have ban chan which are side dishes like kimchi given for free. Most likely, they'll also give out some type of soup. The soup really depends on restaurants lol Don't go demand free soup cause you read it on a blog :P . I would recommend you guys to have soju with meat. Well, soju isn't expensive and luxurious as wine or vodka, but its a way to enjoy your meal in an oriental way. My friends dad love soju. Its interesting how people react to new type of taste when they actually taste them.
My roommate finally had bullgogi. I didn't think he was into eating Korean food. But, after he tasted it he liked it and well at least didn't complain.
Well, I want to actaully try the chicken in the egg, a Filipino dish. I might hate it but I want to try it at least :P and I want to try rabbit ... :P Yes I am a heavy meat eater. Sorry you veggie ppl. I am evil. Argh writing this blog made me so hungry for meaaaat. Sadly, I can only get chicken in the dining hall. or processed paddies :( someone invite me to dinner
I have no real reason for choosing this topic. Well, I my mind is just so blur. Anyways, Korean cows are a bit different from foreign cows. They aren't black and white, they are brown! Traditionally, cows are represented as strong and hard working. Yes, they were strong and they were hard workers in the field. Well, these days they are more used for the meat. But, their prices have gone up a lot! They are so expensive that I never ate beef in korea loool well once or twice. Well, I live in Malaysia so its not that bad. Anyways! After the FTA failed Korean beef became extremely expensive. Since the demand for Korean cows increased and the farmers said Korean cows have to quality that made them super expensive. I would only see super rich people eating beef :S Sadly I am not one of those people.
Well, I guess its not bad as Japan but we're getting there. I think we should let cows have more babies so that everyone can eat Korean cows :P Personally, I think Korean cows are really cute lol I want to eat one one day when I get a job!
I really got off track for the past few blog posts. Well a lot happened. I had to drop a course, my test scores weren't so great and etc. The good thing is I just had fall break and my friend got a girl friend haha. I was quite amazed, but I guess miracles do happen (Sorry but its true).
Anyways the singer I follow e.via made a comeback with her new song! I just wanted to post it up here so more people can know about her, since she is not really famous yet!
Another thing I wanted to write about is Korean snacks! There are a lot of Korean snacks and they probably will make you have a stomach ache if you eat too many of them, but one particular snack of my childhood memories is called Go re Bab. It means whale food!
There are few flavors and they taste pretty good! They're also shaped in different type of sea creatures. So, you can chop their heads off as you eat =O
The campus compus is an app that is pretty much similar to a lot of apps already out there. The thing about this application is that once you enter your destination, the screen would only show you a compus. It would keep on pointing on the destination you want to go to. It would point through buildings so that you can find the shortest distance between classes.
The main purpose of this app is to help freshman find their classes ㅡㅡ. I was a freshman once. I ended up going around the campus 5 times before finding the office of international education cause I really suck at reading a map. That night I had a lot of blisters and couldn't walk properly.
If this application was there for me, I wouldn't have suffered that badly and I would have bought a smart phone no matter what!
I need to think about something interesting to write about Korea = S ...........emmmmmmmmmmm
I really can't think of a good one! I need something other than food, music, and games. How about the parks in Korea? Well, I could write about Korean military service ㅡㅡ... Since I have to be drafted sooner or later :S
