How to make Ramyun

Ramyun is an instant food that can be eaten in various ways and its one of the most popular food in Korea. Now, Ramyun is famous among foreigners with their spices and noodles. I will tell you about my own unique way to make Ramyun. When I make a Ramyun, the first thing I put ins 500cc of water in the bowl. It is supposed to be 550cc but my eating style is to eat salty. Just, before the water boils, I put the spice powder and the vegetable flakes. I taste the soup if it tastes alright, and I put the dried noodle, which I cut in two pieces. When it's all done, I put some raw eggs, ham, and green onions so it tastes better. When its done with cooking, I slurp the Ramyun at once. While you are making this, be careful that you don't get burnt!

Mother from the Great Depression

        I had no idea that I would reach up to this hard time. My life was easy-flowing and there was not mych things to worry about. Now, I am in such a pain, living everyday with worries, difficulties and hunger. My most worry is my children.One loaf of bread was all they had for the last three days.They have asked for more, but I couldn't reply with tears on my face. I feel very guilty and I am not even sure if I can be "Mother" for them. I tried my hard, going out on the street begging for food and money but everyone is in difficult condition. Disgraceful and undignified to myself, but I have to do this for my children and myself. Last week, my house owner insisted me to empty house untill next week. I was frustrated and begged him for more time but he left without a word. I can't belive it. Do I have to sleep on the street with my little adorable children? I use to give some bread and money to people who slept in the subway station. However, now I am going to be one of them. Right now, I feel so angry to my ex-husband. How could he abandon me and these children and go to another woman? I bet I am the most miserable person in this world. Please, can someone help me?Or should I put the children to the orphange? Will the children prefer being in the orphange rather than staying with the irresponsible mother? No! What am I thinking? I will overcome this moment of life and make my family happy forever. Let's' cheer up and try my best!
