Cooking dinner

이미지
I like watching youtube, it is my hobby. As networks are built around the world, we can easily watch many videos on our phones.  When I look around the youtube channel, i found something interesting video.  I had so much fun that i lost track of time. It was cooking channel. After coming to the united states, i was sick of ramen, bread, and pizza. Especially I was tired of cafeteria's food. So I tried Korean cuisine on the cooking channel I watched.  Most of the dinner was cooked with Korean friends. In fact, i didn't cook well because I lived with my family in Korea. But when I came here, I had to cook because I spent too much money if I didn't make my own meals. The first dish I tried was budae jjigae. It is kind of spicy soup with ham and sausage.   It was not a dish that I used to enjoy in Korea, but it was so delicious.  So I tried other dishes, it was dakgalbi. It is kind of spicy chicken with various vegetables. The dishes tasted good enough and made me feel good.  I

The importance of the CAR

I don't have a driver license. Because I've never tried to get license before. In Korea, most people in their 20s don't have a car, cause its price is too tough for 20s.  And we have a lot of public transportation, so we can go everywhere take bus or subway. Therefore, I couldn't feel the importance of the car. But after I arrived in USA, I thought that people cannot go anywhere without car.  When I came here, I had to go to market to buy some stuffs. But it takes about 30 minutes by walk. It made me really tired. But now I made a new friends, so new friends takes me and my friends to the market. It is really useful and comfortable. In america, people can get driver license after 16 years old. But in Korea, people can get it after 19 years old. And i have a fear of a car accidents.   Those causes I've never tried to get driver license.  However, now I think i have to get license to drive my car in the future. The comfortable came from driving is really useful, and i

Prices in the USA

When I came to USA, I was really worried about prices in the U.S. Because I heard that prices that in the U.S. are about 1.5 times more expensive than in Korea. At first day, I went to Walmart to buy some stuffs. When I was look around there, as expected many stuffs were too expensive. So, I regretted not buying more things from Korea. For example, the daily necessity was too expensive. But not all of them were expensive, some of them is same with Korea.   And surprisingly, all the groceries were cheaper than in Korea. The best thing was many fruits are very cheap. I really like fruit, it makes me happy. So when I went to the market, I always buy some fruits. And the bad thing was that organizing items, small home appliances, and medicines were more expensive than in Korea. So, I bought what I really needed to live, and I requested to my parents to send packages. In addition to shopping at the mart, delivery food was very expensive in U.S. Before I came here, I real

Side effect of vaccination

I got a first vaccine in Korea. It has no problem. After I arrived at USA, I got a second vaccine. It also has no problem until 5 days. I always okay after vaccine, but on the 5th day, I had a severe hive reaction.  In the morning, I took my drawing class. At that time, my elbow was a little bit itch. As time goes by, my elbow became red.  I couldn't stand it and took allergy medicine urgently. I went to Health Clinic, and Doctor said they don't know the exact reason.  The reason may be a vaccine, some food or a cosmetic. But I had never been an allergic reaction anything in my life. Unfortunately, steroid medicine was out of stock. So I had to wait one day more. I got the medicine the next day, but my allergic reaction reached its peak. The reddish covered my whole body. So I took medicine every day for 6 days. Fortunately, the allergic reaction disappeared completely from the fourth day. Before this experience, I was complacent because I thought I wouldn't suffer from the
