The new hair trend today in Korea is Cleopatra’s hair, where ever we go most girls especially middle school students has a long black straight hair with bangs, like Cleopatra’s hair. I would like to take photo of them but I don’t know how to do it without their knowing, hehe

Buying Strawberries from the Shopping Street

When I report my new passport in Suwon Immigration I also went to postal office in Icheon downtown to mail our travel documents to the travel agency in Busan. After mailing our documents I go home and passed by in the shopping street and decided to went inside the Naughty Cat shop to buy some key chains, I am planning to included them when I  mail post cards to my friends.

Strawberries

Aside from buying key chains I also bought few earrings so I have new accessories to blog.  When I went out the shop I look for the couple that I saw outside selling strawberries and persimmons I thought they were gone when I can’t find them to where I saw them but actually they just moved. So I went near them and buy strawberries, I handed 5,000 won and took one container but the man gave me another container he is saying two for ocheon won. As I already forgot how much is 5, 000 won in Hangul I just said I only want one believing ocheon won is 10, 000 won.

The strawberries are sweet that I don’t need to keep them in fridge with water and sugar but as I cannot eat them all at once though I’d like too I keep them in the fridge, what is left is almost one container.

Benefits of Instant Meal

Probably most of us has no time to cook meal when we are rushing and busy in to something.  That’s where instant meal and  fast food came to the rescue, they are easy to get and no sweat on cooking. Eating instant meal is not unhealthy when you know what food to eat,  there are some fast food chain and convenient stores that cater vegetarian food or healthy instant meals for students and everybody.

Instant Meal

The other night I was too busy to cook my dinner and I asked my husband if it is okay if I just buy instant meal in GS25, he agreed and asked me to buy him smoked chicken and chips.

Paying Bills at the Bank

My husband asked me to pay the maintenance fee for our apartment in the bank, I was on hesitation because it is going to be my first time to transfer funds from his bank account to another account. I am bit afraid that I might made a mistake and sent more money than what I should send.

Anyway  my husband says I can make it so I did and it was really easy, my  negative thoughts was the only thing that making it difficult. We already pay the maintenance fee this month but my husband received a note that he needs to pay for the first two months as well and that’s what I paid today.

Adopting Homeless Cats

My sister informed that they have new cats, they adopted two homeless cats. They found the cats on the side of the street while they are on the way home. They brought them home and feed them, my sister says they are starving. They are tamed cats because my sister were able to give them a good bath, they are just  on leash so they won’t stow away.

Homeless Cats

Adopting homeless cat is not the first time my family did this, when my sister and I found a tiny cat on the street we also brought the cat home.

Mouthwatering BHC Chicken

My husband and I is craving for chicken last night so we decided to try BHC Chicken, to make sure what we would like to order we look on their menu online. They have plenty of chicken menu compare to other fried chicken establishment, I took picture of the chicken we would like to order so it would be easy for me to tell them what I want to order without looking at their menu board or book.

BHC Chicken

We decided to order two  매운 닭날개 구이.  So when I went to BHC I showed them my camera where I took picture of the menu online aside from it I also ordered 미니콜팝, while waiting I decided to drop by beside the Paris Baguette and bought some sweets including a small cake.

Catering Equipment On A Budget

For many, owning your own catering business is a dream come true, and there are many ways to satisfy your love for cooking whilst also making a decent living. If you’re up to date with the latest food trends, and you love to host dinner parties for friends and family, you can easily combine you’re entrepreneurial drive with your favourite hobby to give your skills a platform to develop. However there are a number of things that need to be in place before you start taking bookings!

In the world of catering, whether you get your business through word of mouth or you actively seek clients, you will need to find your culinary niche, and make sure it carries the name of your company through every bite and smell. Additionally, you’re going to need a solid foundation of equipment to ensure you can actually prepare hot and cold food, and seeing that most start-ups will be working to a tight budget, this can be tricky.

Thankfully there’s no need to fret, as we’ve compiled a list of the top catering considerations as well as some equipment you’ll be able to pick up within your budget.

Cheap Catering

Guest Profiles

One of the first things you’ll have to do when starting up your catering business, other than find your culinary niche, is to distinguish your guest or client profiles. Not only will you need to understand and differ the services you offer to friends and business clients, but you will also need to be knowledgeable about the services your competitors offer.

In order to make your business stand out, it’s imperative that you complement your food with a bespoke and professional service, as well as offering more than the next catering company in your area and price range. One you have these targets set out, there’s no going back, and you’ll need to retain that high level of food and service in order to retain customers.

Understand Preferences

With different clients come different preferences, and this can be a good thing and a bad thing. Within the catering industry, you must be able to offer a variety of menus depending on the age group of your clients, and limiting your menu will ultimately limit the expansion of your business.

For example, if you’re catering for an older group of professionals, like a book club get together, a milder menu is advisable. Your food will be there as a refreshment, and not as the centre piece of the engagement; offering something for everyone is the key to these types of bookings.

You will also get bookings where your food will be an essential element of the event, such as a charity auction. It is here where you can offer something more outlandish, and show off your culinary delights though a specific menu. You can have a look at the latest Catering equipment with Fridge Freezer Direct.

Essential Equipment

When you’re on the road with your catering business, you’ll need to keep a few pieces of equipment to hand when things get busy. A quality chef’s knife can be picked up relatively cheaply, however it’s good to note that the more you pay, the longer it will last. A portable rice cooker always comes in handy when catering for large groups, and again there are a variety of brands that offer great prices on this essential. Finally, don’t forget your lemon squeezer!

Paypal Withdrawal and Savings

Without money left to travel to Suwon I decided to withdraw few dollars from my paypal account, it was made possible through my husband’s paypal account. I sent him the money and he withdrawn it to his bank account and then he gave me the money. He has no choice because he wouldn’t shoulder my fare on claiming my new passport and reporting it to the immigration.

Paypal

My husband open a paypal account because of it was needed when I want to buy a new laptop and he doesn’t agree of giving my allowance in few months advance last year.Well as I have savings from earning online I told him my plan and the rest is history when I needed money I just send him the amount I need which is seldom to happen because I am sending all my earnings home and if I keep withdrawing money from paypal account I am sure my husband will not give me any allowance anymore. Lol

My New Passport and Visiting Suwon Immigration

It was quite tiring these past two days,  I went to Philippine embassy last Thursday to claim my new passport. I renewed my old passport two months ago eh. I just went in and went out, but of course I have to travel by bus going home which makes it tiring not included the train ride and transfer on the subway.

The next day I wake very early so I can go to Suwon immigration so I can report my new passport, ride a taxi,  went in and went out. In short I have been traveling these past few days with lack of proper sleep and food.  Well if I forgot to mention I traveled without eating anything because if I do eat before leaving our apartment it will take me longer.

Suwon Immigration

Anyway I survived riding  a taxi by having printed out in Hangul where I want to go (immigration) and writing in a piece of paper the word Suwon bus station terminal (수원 버스 터미널)  so I can return home. The driver’s would like to talk to me sadly all I can say is “Hangul Mulayo”  luckily they speak a little English so we still had short conversation like where you from and etc.,

The old man (taxi driver going to immigration) asked me how long I have been in Korea, which I replied four years and he was kind of astonished why I can’t still speak Korean, he even told me to learn Korean and when we arrived in the immigration he thought me how the pronounce the place (immigration) in Korean. I said thank you and show him my English-Korean dictionary, I want to learn Korean but there’s no way I can because I don’t know any school that offers teaching Korean language, I am hermit that’s why I don’t know anything. I spend the whole day in front of my computer surfing, blogging, reading and playing online.

Anyway inside the immigration while waiting for my electronic number to be called I looked around and was wondering why I can’t find the pink application form from everyone,  the immigrants are holding a different form. So I went to the table and there I found out the immigration has new form, I filled it up again just to make sure I  belong. Haha, I already have the old (pink) form because I took one when we visited the immigration last March to extend the period of our sojourn because I know I am going to return after I renewed my passport.
