It's 1 day before payday and I started my day with only 380yen coins on my pocket - the only money I have left. Nothing, as in no other source of income, my atm account cashed out.
So I started my day shopping for a 105yen onigiri (which has a 30yen discount tag), 105yen 500ml lipton lemon tea, 105yen oatmeal cookies - the entirety of my lunch meal which costs a devastating 285yen. (devastating on my current state of funds anyway).
So, how do I cope with my hunger at 9am in the morning? Iced coffee courtesy of our friendly office vending machine - costing me the last of my funds - 80yen.
With 15yen left on my pocket, I walked home, wondering what to do with dinner.
God is more merciful at dinner: I have a block of pork tenderloin in my freezer, so I resigned myself to cook bistek tagalog (which only needs onions, soy sauce and spices) as topping on bowl of oatmeal for dinner!

ReplyDeletedesperate times calls for desperate measures! hahaha!
ReplyDeleteOnigiri is Japanese for rice ball (with fish, meat or vegetable inside. I usually eat the one with either tuna or salmon on it)
