Ramen. Shop around for the best balance of price/calories.

Yeah, I've had 3 packages of ramyeon so far this weekend. Went all out tonight and got fried chicken and a 1.5L of Pepsi and a pack of smokes.

Ramyeon's what? 500 Won a package? That's a little over 21 packages. I guess I'd have to eat one a day and not smoke. Hmm.

Rice is what? 2000 Won for a kilo? I have some sauces, etc. that I can use.

I weigh about 235 pounds.

You can buy two bottles of La Tondena Gold Philippine rum at EMart or HomePlus.

Yikes. That would be very difficult. That won't buy enough potatoes and noodles for 3 weeks.

Fill your water bottles up at a mountain side tap, if possible, and then look for discounted potatoes and carrots.

I can't say how you would survive on just 10,750 won for 3 weeks other than to lose weight by going on a fasting diet and getting any freebies.

Any coins laying around? Most of us have a heavy load of coins saved up in our apartment from dumping pocket change at the end of a day.

Then 1,000 calories a day may do you some good. And run or do some other free exercise to the point where you don't feel like eating much...

but doesn't ramen have like negative nutritional attributes. wouldn't he better off with cabbage, a cheap super food?

with a name like yours, maybe you can contact some of the teachers moving to china/taiwan and give them crash couses.
