Winter is coming ^^
So Sun pissed me off, or rather, the lack of students to the classes i want to take piss me off. As there's 1 student in all of the sysadmin I classes nearby, i went ahead and ordered the CD. If nothing else, it's cheaper, which is always good. I still will have to go to a sun place for the tests (and test prep class), but i've got a little more flexibility with that. I'm not overly concerned on going with the CD vs the class, but i wanted some baseline to see where i was at. On the plus side, i could be done with all this a bit sooner than expected. ^^
Since i started getting into japanese cooking, i've made quite a few dishes. I'm now past the vast majority of the dishes i already knew (with the exception of sushi). Thus far i've made: Miso Soup, Miso Salmon, Miso chicken, Chicken cutlet, Pork Cutlet, Smoked salmon Onigiri, Simmered beef rice bowl, Chikin Risu, Crabmeat Omelette, Shrimp Curry, Shrimp Tempura with Soba noodles, and a few other that escape me at the moment. Overall, it's not nearly as hard as i imagined it would be to get it right. Now granted, making curry from scratch is a massive pain in the ass which took 6-7 hours total. I can tell i've improved a good amount with how i cook now, but even when i started, things came out very close to how they are ment to. Most of the things i make i get right (in taste if not presentation) by the 2nd or 3rd time i make it. Still quite a few things in the book to make, but i'm pretty confident with my skills.
One of the hardest things has been trying to find a good place to get the cooking items and ingredients i need. Oddly enough, Austin has a much better selection than Dallas did, with the exception of a few things. I tried looking online for a good store, but alas, no such luck as of yet. I'm quite sure there are places out there, so i'll look a bit more later but i do get sidetracked easily it would seem.
Been a few weeks since i've played any MMO, which is rather refreshing. So far, only been playing Valkyrie profile 2, which i have to admit, rocks pretty hardcore. It's a shame i'm at the end boss tho. >.< They recently released the track listing for Guitar Hero II, which looks really awesome. Can't wait to play it, when i get around to it. Have to admit, Warpigs, Sweet Child o' Mine, Cherry Pie, and Primus (yay!!) should be a interesting to play.^^ Tho oddly enough, it seems Metallica was too good for a video game.
