210208 Why I pack my lunch
What's in the bag, Heather?
It's my lunch and thermos of coffee. I'm tired of paying through the nose for junk food every day.
Is it that expensive to eat out every day?
If you break it down, it costs about $10 for lunch and $3 for coffee. But I usually haev two coffees. So that's $16 a day, or $80 a week!
And if you pack your lunch, you can take your time when you eat.
Meanwhile, everyone else is rushing aroundt just to ent up wating in lines.

pay through the nose: 많은 돈을 쓰다 바가지를 쓰다. 
ex) 작은 샌드위치에 바가지 쓰기 싫어요. I hate to pay through the nose for a tiny sandwich.
ex) 내가 다른 주에서 왔다는 이유로 대학 등록금에 바가지를 써야 했어. I had to pay throught the nose for my university fees because I came from another state.

break something down 더 잘 설명하기 위해 ~ 을 나누다
ex) 이 청구서를 더 자세히 설명해 줄 수 있나요? Can you break this invoice down for me?
