The Problematic of the Unproblematic

Weird, I just had dinner (spaghetti with two kinds of sauce), but all of a sudden, my favorite Korean song is in my head ... and with it, urges for Ramyun. Here is the English translation (not my own, so I cannot guarantee that this is correct. Actually, some professional help from some of the awesome subbers out there would be appreciated. This translation somewhat doesn't mention the kissing scene!!!): hey friends, the ramyun song has started! boil boil, gogo! into boiling water boil boil, gogo! put noodles in boil boil, gogo! also put powdered soup in boil boil, gogo! waiting 3 mins! hell yeah! ramyun heaven! boil boil, gogo! as your favor, boil boil, gogo! black pepper boil boil, gogo! green onion boil boil, gogo! if you have some money, boil boil, gogo! you can drop an egg into the pot what's the charming point of ramyun~~ the taste you never forget if you just try once~ the soup feels like it soeaks even into your bones i do like ramyun~~ I like~ boil b...

Grateful for not feeling guilty for eating a gigantic chocolate cake piece of heaven

During semester, I prepare my classes at Starbucks. Why? Because the coffee is so delicious! Not true. No, it's because I am not left alone at the office, door knockings, phone ringings, emailings, you get the drift. So, I'm at Starbucks, concentrating and reading and summarizing all that clever stuff, which works really well. Alas, they have managed to have the exact same music playing for the last 4 weeks. We are talking about a 4 hours interval here. Some Piazzolla, some Sinatra, some jazz classics. And then there's the song "my Heart Belongs to Daddy". Every Wednesday, it comes on at around 11am. I seem to be waiting for it, subconsciously, because when it starts playing, my concentration evaporates and all I can focus on is that damn song. And now it's stuck in my head. AND I have developed a fascination with words that rhyme with daddy. (of all possible versions, this seemed the most appropriate for this blog) I hope this goes away ...

today, grateful for this!

day 20: thankful for words such as oxymoron, soliloquy, mischievous, sobriety. I just like them. when I think them, something resonates within me. I must have often spoken these words in an earlier life, I think. And I am eagerly awaiting the Oxymoron's diary, which makes me like 'oxymoron' doubly. day 21: thankful for sun, fun, and nothing to do. Only you my Schatz on the Luftmatratz (at least in my mind). I had a look at where I am going to spend many a weekend this summer. There is a 50m pool there. Not saying anything more, or you'll all want to come. Can't have that. day 22: is that today? you know something is wrong with your life if you can't keep count of your days. I think Internet connections should be much much faster. So fast that if we wanted to download a movie it would only take 10' max. And I want Facebook to be as exciting again as it was when I first started using it 2.5 years ago. And I want a burger from Zic Zac , now! Because I can...

Today I am grateful for Schnipo, soul food par excellence. With Ketchup, of course. There is one dish that beats Schnipo, though. It's Schnitospa: Schnitzel with Spaghetti on Tomato Sauce.
