Diary of an expatriate student 3 (My story with food)

Here in Indonesia the food is very different from what I used to eat in my country, whether in the ingredients or the way to prepare it, at first I found it very difficult to eat because they only prepare spicy food and I can not eat it, and after a while I asked some people about the places that sell Vegetables and various food ingredients and I started preparing my food myself inside the student residence. I gradually began to learn the names of vegetables and then some of the foods that I wanted to buy in order to facilitate dealing with sellers.
At first, I was very shy when trying to pronounce Indonesian words, sometimes I did mistakes .. and sometimes pronounced it correctly until I used to pronounce it, some sellers came to know me and when I go to buy they bring to me the things that I usually buy so that it is easy for me to buy what I need.
These are some of the dishes I have prepared in the dormitory:
