btw, everyone... it's "99 ranch market". my pops worked there for 15+ years.
I always go by "大華99", so when I say it in English, it just gets translated directly

It's even better when mom and dad have a restaurant - I'm out of school now, but I still go there for free food. Hell, I even take some home to make during the week.

Did you go to a community college? Did you finish college?

My first year was at Ohlone and I had money because I worked, but as soon as I got to a higher end school my money went to tuition, books, and supplies, and that was while working and with a huge loan.
I paid around $9200 every 3 months for tuition, not including books, supplies, car note, insurance, rent, cellphone/cable/internet/power bills. AND I worked about 45 hours/week with about 30 hours of homework per week, minimum.

I like how College english classes teach you how to write 12 page papers and rely on spell check, not memorize how to spell words. There's no spelling class in college.



$10 worth of chicken + vinegar + soy sauce + rice= food for a week.

1) Whatever vegetables are cheap at the farmer's market.
2) Bag o' potatoes.
3) Chickens when they go on sale.

Throw it all in the crock pot before you go to class.

Freshman year at Colorado, I got a season pass to Vail/Beaver Creek ('96-'97, prior to the 5-mountain pass). Consequently, I was pretty broke. Our solution was to go to the Vail "food court" and get a ton of saltine crackers and some ketchup/mustard to put on 'em. We'd also bring ramen packets and just use a cup from the soda fountain to fill with the on-demand hot water they had. Super cheap bastards we were! Until they banned us from taking saltines unless we were buying soup
