Cooking~~
Before I came to Canada, I had never left my parents. Wherever my parents went, I always followed them. In their mind, I still a young child and never growth up until that time I need go to study and living in Canada. My parents began to worry about my life because I did less of things at home. At first time, I stayed in homestay which homestay was found from my school. The homestay included dinner, but I stayed in basement. When my mum heard that, she thought that basement was not good for me. So I decided to move out after one month. Cooking became one troubled things for me because I did not how to cooking. I tried to think about how is my mum cooking and looked for internet which dish is easily for cooking. There are time difference between Canada and China. When I did first cooking, I called back to my mum and asked her how to do those dishes. That time was noon in Canada, but it was midnight in China. My mum told me how to do those dishes and I wrote down their steps. Then, I followed steps to cook dinner. Um, I only can say that taste was not good, but I did not give up. After that, I continued to study cooking although the taste still bad. I bought some cooking book in order to study how to cooking better. Now, I can cook a lot of Chinese dishes by myself and the taste become better and better. Some times, I will try to cook some new dishes because it also an improvement for me.

Hi Cherry,
It is a big step to leave your family and come to a foreign country to live on your own. It certainly helps you to become independent. Part of being independent is learning how to cook for yourself. Good for you for trying and improving. You will always use what you have learned. It is a good thing to know.
