Short stories (2013, India PSP)

My likes and dislikes at home

 

In Korea, I liked watching TV mostly. After my work I came back home, firstly I turned on the TV automatically. Then I cooked dinner or took a shower as it was going on. After that I lay on the couch and watched TV until I dozed off. Now when I think of it, it was not good rest.

 

In India I like the time when I take a rest alone! I live in the dormitory and I share the room with 3 students. So there is little time when I am alone. It will change after I share the room with my husband.

 

I don’t like cleaning the house and ironing shirts’ creases. It is the same wherever I am.

 

The fight

 

I hate any fights. Actually I may be afraid of fighting with someone. Because when I’m faced with a little argument, my brain freezes. In other words, I can’t think anymore.

 

But I say ‘fighting’ frequently. Most Korean people say ‘fighting’. Why do they say that? When we need more energy of when we want to give the courage to someone, we can say ‘fighting’ to someone or ourselves.

 

During the Olympic game season, before an important examination or interview, we talk to each other. That is a scary word but my fighting potential might be increasing while I don’t realize it.

Lebanese cuisine

 

The main ingredients of Lebanese food are starch, fruits, vegetables and marine products. Furthermore they prefer white meat to red meat. The method of cooking is sautéing and grilling, and they use olive oil, garlic, herbs and lemon juice as the sauce. So they can get the best flavor of original materials. It tastes clean, fresh and non-oily.

No Title

When I was a 6-year-old-girl, my father’s business got badly. So we were a well-off. I was only girl in my family. I always had a short-hair-cut. I was a weak-hearted girl but my brothers were well-known to mischief in my village. People in village were mostly warm-hearted so they always forgave them.
