I Love Korean Food

My revision has been largely non-productive; I look at the course content and I feel as if I've learnt everything I need to, then I try taking the practice exam and fall flat on my face. I don't know why tests have become so difficult all of a sudden- I was never worried or stressed about exams before. Sometimes I feel like I don't experience anxiety at all- but some part inside of me is screaming that there is so much I do not know and I really have a long way to go. 

Anyway being in Sydney has been a real treat for my tast buds- I basically refuse to eat "normal" food that I could otherwise easily get my hands on. On the day I got here I ate at a Korean restaurant for dinner, and subsequently fell in love with kimchi. Maybe it's because I'd never had Korean food before, but even the side dishes taste good. There's just this... flavour in Korean food which I can't really describe. I think it's soybean sauce? It's as staple in Korean food as MSG is in Chinese food. Day two I essentially just slept a lot and woke late, then we had takeaway delivered, which was great. The food was like, meat softened with starch and flavoured with your usual MSG + salt combo, which tasted delicious regardless. You'd be surprised by how few unhealthy meals I can usually get my hands on.

Then last night I had Korean again and tried bulgogi. I have no idea what that word means and it reminds me of a genre of Japanese porn, but we won't go there. As far as i could tell bulgogi was mostly deliciously succulent beef and from that point on I just wanted to eat Korean food all day every day. If I ever become rich enough to eat out every single night, I'm going to love my life. 

Though in reality if I get that rich, I'll probably become one of those sleep-deprived work-a-holics who ask their colleagues to buy them meals in styrofoam boxes and finish eating in 5min. I guess at that point I would no longer care what I was eating, as long as it was food.

Pushing aside thoughts of good food, tomorrow is going to be another day, and hopefully I will be more motivated and actually study or something. It's quite disappointing that the work and effort I put into things doesn't match my ambitious drive, and I just keep lowering my standards every single time.
