A MICHELLE 2014

Hi,

I asked my student, Michelle, why she was unable to do her homework.  She said: "I have a part-time job".  I was like, ugh, lousy excuse.  This is what she does.  Kind of a local celebrity and on her way to stardom.  If you delve further, you'll also notice that she is a Thai kick-boxer and MMA fighter.  She is tiny, like maybe 4'9 and 80 pounds, but is quite the prize fighter!!

The Bal Woo GangYang and Dawn Worship Experience (October 1997)

Image
Last Saturday night and Sunday morning (97/8/7), I ate at a (Pal-u hang-yang) Buddhist monk's dining ceremony in So-myon. The organizer, Jay Oh, invited foreigners, so they could see how monks eat every night. Most of the Koreans there were experiencing this for the first time as well. The night started off with the monk, Shin-san, explaining to everyone how the evening's meal would proceed. Everyone there was nervous, including me, because the rules seemed so complex. I soon realized that this form of eating is in reality very simple, indeed. We then broke for about half an hour, and at around 11:30pm, we sat down to eat. We had a special way we were supposed to hold our bowls, a way to serve the food (in a buffet manner) and we were not supposed to make any noise, not even to hear ourselves chew, because this would take us out of the meditative state of mind. The monk seemed to be really intrigued that there were some foreigners present, and was keen as to make sure that ...

MOBY'S MEALTIME REVIEW (3RD)

Image
This small, Italian, and French restaurant is located in a very quiet neighborhood. After a hectic week of teaching, the French and Italian classical music and décor are very relaxing. The chef-owner studied Italian cooking while in England and Italy.  All of the pasta served at Ravioli’s is homemade, and every meal comes with fresh, hot Italian bread. My friend ordered the special of the day, lasagna verdi bolognese (7000 won) which wasn't great. The other special was a spinach cannelloni, made of spinach pasta, filled with cheese, and vegetables, and covered with a tomato sauce, which was to die for! (7000 won). I ordered the ravioli for 6500 won. Pasta pockets filled with smoked salmon, served under a tasty tomato sauce and scrumptious vegetables. It was accompanied with three potatoes fried in garlic and herb butter.  Ravioli’s serves spaghetti with seafood, meat and vegetables, cool vinaigrette, Neapolitan, or béchamel sauce (white sauce). The waitress told us th...

GARY ROSS IN INDONESIA (JULY 12, 2010)

PART 1. My dad's Canadian friend from childhood, Gary Ross, came to visit us from Australia, where he lives, in Jakarta one week before our one month vacation.  We checked him into the Grand Kemang Hotel and went to the bar to watch some World Cup matches and catch up.  The next day, I met him for the buffet breakfast at the hotel, and then we went to the dentist, so he could save major $.  I bowed out early, as I was dealing with food poisoning.  Over the next few days, we visited several malls, so he could buy clothes, billiards equipment, glasses, and electronics, plus, it was a chance to see where Jakartianese hang out, since there are no parks or other recreational places here.  We also visited FEZ bar and a Korean restaurant, where we socialized with Carol's co-workers.  Once day, we visited M.O.N.A.S., Jakarta's Monument, which was boring, and we also went to Jalan Jaksa the same day to sit in a terrace, play pool, and talk about Ottawa.  On the...
