A Monday Chronicle.
It's about time to head home. I'm craving Bibimbap. When I first tried it at an authentic Korean restaurant, I didn't like it. I think mixing a runny egg that I suspected was raw into my rice just didn't do it for me. (Is it raw by the way?) But after I traveled on Korean Air on a long haul flight and eating Bibimbap at least three times there and back, I think the taste has grown on me.
(The entire paragraph above was written by my stomach.)
What a day. Handed in my resignation letter today and it feels strange. Neither liberating nor sad, just strange. I forget who I was I said this:
I am not only between the proverbial devil and the deep blue sea, there are sharp nails under my feet. You can make a home of sharp nails, you know, the way a salamader makes a home of consuming fire. I have uncannily made a home of this uncomfortable place: where there are no ambitions, no dreams, no principles, no hope for a future, just today, tomorrow and everyday after.
I don't think I was talking only about work there, but I can't remember.
I don't think I've ever been so keenly aware of the calendar year as I am right now.
Anyone up for Bibimbap?

I don't know about this Bibimbap stuff. It sounds more like a web 2.0 app than a food.
But hey, I'll give it a try. I'll meet you at your favorite bibihouse in ten minutes.
;-)
I'm in for food!! I think i tried this dish before, a claypot of steam rice mixed with meat and veggies. There's a Korean food stall at Food Republic, Wisma Atria. I tried their beef rice set, recommended to try. :)
How weird. I'm handing in my resignation letter this wednesday. =) Have more Bibimbap for me, plus an extra round of Kimchi.
You were late Jim. ;)
Alvin, I actually really like the Food Republic chain. It is cheap good food in a nice setting. Will try the beef set, thanks! :)
smudgi3, really?? whoa. Okay. Will have Bibimbap for you to celebrate. :) To infinity and beyond!
So is the dish in the left foreground what we're talking about?
Not that it matters. It all looks pretty good.
Oooh. Yes.. yum. See what you missed? ;)
