I asked my father to buy a pack of beans on Wednesday afternoon because I wanted to make some soy milk by myself. First of all, I put them into water for about ninety minutes. The purpose is to soften the beans. And then I put some beans and water into juicer and turned it on for six minutes. After that, I use a sheet of cotton towel as a filter. I poured them into the cotton towel and squeezed the towel hard. I repeated these steps until I finished all the milk. I squeezed about two thousand c.c. of soy milk. The last step, I heated up the soy milk and stirred it continually. Finally, I got a cup of hand-made and delicious soy milk. And I also shared it with my parents.

Finally I'm on vacation. It's so good to be home because I don't have to get up early for the class and I can watch TV and read books all day long. What's more, I can eat delicious and healthy food at home, especially for lunch and dinner. Last weekend I invited Chezzie and Alice to my home to have dinner then we had some oranges after the meal. However, we couldn't finish all the oranges because they were too much, we decided to make orange juice. We cut all the oranges and squeezed them. Then I poured the juice into bottles. I didn't expect it was so much fun to make juice by myself. And I'm sure I will do it again.

Nicole, Alice and I went to Shin Kong Mitsukoshi department store last week because of anniversary celebration. It's really cold so we wanted to buy some coats. There were a lot of people gathered in the department store. It was such a loud noise there. I hated it. We just went around for about one hour. I felt faint and impatient. I wanted take a big gun to kill every person who were standing in front of me. Of course, I was only kidding. I just wanted to leave there as soon as possible. Finally, Alice and I bought nothing and Nicole got $X690 worth of coat.

I had lunch with my uncles, aunts, cousins, parents and grandmother in TASTY on January 1. I had gone out with my family for many times since I did not work. Also, I have had the meal in TASTY for about 5 times. I enjoy the food served there. The appetizer, Shrimps and Asparagus, is ate with special souse. Delicious!! And another wonderful food I like most is dessert: Vanilla Ice Cream in Chocolate bag. You have to break the bottom of chocolate bag with fork and then the hot chocolate will flow out of the bag and down on the ice cream. It' s so sweet but really delicious.

I have had a serious headache since I was 18 years old. It's unpredictable and I wonder what caused headache. The most painful experience is that once my head was very uncomfortable after I got off duty last summer vacation. I lay down on the bed for a rest but it didn't work. It seems that my head was smashed and knocked. I started to cry. My mother had a kind of left-sided stroke when I was 17 years old. I was afraid that I might have a stroke, too. It could be a genetic disease. Last week, I had serious headache again and I didn't know what I should do. I dosed myself with Aspirin and then I fell asleep soon.

There are some disadvantages of having a job while in college. It takes a lot of time. For example, you have to prepare the handout or tests that are used in classes. Also, you do not have enough time to be with your family and friends because of work. Another disadvantage to have a job is that you can't focus on your study. When you get off duty, it might be late. You are too tired to do any homework and you are so sleepy that you can't concentrate on class next day. So, if you are thinking about whether have a job or not, consider the above disadvantages.
