i came home quickly after my last class. i was beginning to feel ill and wanted out of my work clothes and into jeans and uggs. (haha, the koreans dont call me a coastie.) after changing, i went to a local place for kimbap and soondooboo. i have no idea how to correctly spell soondooboo and as that is how it sounds, that is how i will continue to spell it. soondooboo is spicy tofu stew. it is full of red pepper paste and whenever i eat it, it makes my pores sweat and my nose run. disgusting, i know, but quite potent to the immune system. i needed soondooboo. i hate getting sick and when i feel a cold coming on, i have my own alternative remedies. soondooboo is a newer one.
garlic is an older one.
after my soondooboo lunch, i came home for some lesson planning. i needed to wait a bit before i tackled whole garlic cloves. i waited about 90 minutes and then forced myself to do it. i toasted a piece of bread, got my camembert, and sliced up four cloves of garlic. we are not talking thin slices, we are talking two cuts per clove. i put some cheese on a piece of bread, put in a garlic chunk, rolled the bread around it, and chewed. it is the most disgusting thing one can do, aside from eating poop. my eyes water, my pores sweat, my nose runs, i feel as though i will begin to hallucinate. it is bloody hell.
i better not feel like shit tomorrow. if i do, we're going for the dwin jung jiggae. its the korean equivalent of chicken noodle soup. soybean paste stew. hungry, anyone?
