Blessed

12.2.16 - 12.9.16

I went home (again) for the weekend because my sister visited from D.C. My family came to Portland to pick us up. So then we stopped by at the H-Mart and had kalbi tang (κ°ˆλΉ„νƒ•) for lunch.


One of the best things of going home is that I get to eat home-cooked meal. I forgot to take pictures πŸ˜“.


I wanted to go bowling with my whole family so we ended up here. 
I'm the Champion! 
πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘


I wished I took Monday off to spend a little more time with my family. I miss them so much 😒.


On Monday, few church people and I went out to Grassa. I ordered the Mac n Cheese. As you can see, it was delicious!



And I brought some Nakji Bokkeum (λ‚™μ§€λ³ΆμŒ) that my mom made and added rice.



This was Wednesday night. We're at Tea Chai Te. Wherever tea places I go, I always get taro bubble tea. It's my fave 😍.



Snow day! We rarely get snow in Eugene and Portland's similar.
BUT, we got some snow on Thursday. I did go to the office just to take pictures. Unfortunately, they didn't come out very well. 


Work has been a little stressful this week but it's still manageable. I brought in some Korean snacks - Choco Pie and Choco Hiem. My co-workers loved them. They are all Caucasians except for one. We need some diversity... So I'm trying to slowly introduce them to Korean food. Plus, it's nice to bring in food for others.

Today (Friday) was my last day at the office for this year! That is because, I am flying out to Chicago Saturday morning! Yay!!! Then I have PTO the following week and our office is closed the last week of the year. 

This coming weekend, I will be spending time with my relatives. Next week, I have a training at Chicago office.

Done packing. I am ready to take off.


Good night! πŸ’•

11.13.16 ~ 11.20.16 Weeks are going by REALLY fast! It's close to Thanksgiving and Christmas πŸ˜„. My work has been treating me well. As of now, I actually enjoy work because they are doable but challenging enough. I learn something new every day. I am less intimidated when I'm given a project. Overall work is great and I am NOT paid to say this. Haha.  Last week, I shopped at Nike Company Store. 2-hour was not enough...  I bought one item for myself and the rest is (Christmas) gifts 🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁. I met a friend and we went to Grassa. Their pasta was delicious! Forgot to take pictures πŸ˜₯......  I'm definitely going back. This sandwhich is from Lardo which is right next to Grassa. It had Kimchi in it and was pretty tasty πŸ‘. With the church group, we went bowling. YAY! I was doing so well during the third round and we ran out of time so I couldn't finish it 😭. Next time... Then, we ate at Pho Van? I think. I got #51. It was very good and flavorful! My fi...

Frosty Chicago

12/10/16 - 12/12/16 Saturday morning, I went from PDX to PHX. My final destination was ORD. My flight at PHX got cancelled... 😲😲😲 My Chicago families were waiting for me. I started panicking because it was my grandma's birthday and I didn't want to miss the birthday party.  The American Airlines customer service lady didn't know what she was doing... took forever to rebook my flight to the next available one. After 30 minutes and asking two of her co-workers she finally had me on standby for the next flight. Standby doesn't guarantee anything... I started asking God to help me get on the flight. They started calling the people on standby. 33 people were all waiting desperately. I was listed as the 8th person. THANK GOD. They called my name and I was the last one.  Bye Pheonix. After all the trouble, I finally arrived at Chicago! Beautiful airport. I was worried the airlines would have lost my bags. Again thank God, they arrived in one piece. It was good to se...

Things to do in Portland

Image
4-6-17 Hello! Last weekend, my family came to visit me in Portland. First of all, Portland's a beautiful city. It's small, but there's plenty of things to do. We went to the waterfront to see the cherry blossoms. πŸ’ Then we went to the Saturday Market. I was feeling adventurous and wanted to try African food. Hmmm.... Hmmm... I got a plate full of seasoned chicken, chili beans, yellowish vegetables and mysterious dressing on a flat bread that tasted like a thick crepe. I liked everything except the flat bread but it's worth the try! πŸ˜‰ * * * Portland's well-known for its food trucks. (This is purely my opinion that has no scientific evidence. I think food trucks are amazing.) There's food trucks all over the city. This place we ended up going to had food trucks surrounding a whole block. I'd love to try all of them. I tried The Frying Scotsman because it had a good review on Yelp. And, Yelppers were right. Their fish cods were delicious! Afte...
