cooking vs writing

It is so sweet that we have one day off. It is like you give someone a bottle of clean and fresh water when they are very thirsty in the desert. This week is as busy as usual. We have to pay attention on the essay we hand in this week because it worth 5%. In Level 3, I didn’t worry that much since I had enough confidence on my writing (actually, I really did worry a little bit in level 3 but not as much as now). On the other hand, we do have lots of freedom in our writing that we can really enjoy the creative process. So, needle won’t be sharp on both ends.

This week, I start to cook for my client. I find it a great job because I really enjoy cooking and I get pay as well. Fortunately, she is not very picky in food, so whatever I cook, she will love and enjoy it. Sometimes, she praises my cooking skills because she doesn’t know much about Chinese food or how good Chinese food can be tasted like. Nevertheless, I do have more confidence in making good dishes than writing an awesome essay. Can I make a dish to the instructor instead of write an essay during the final exam? I think I will get a B at least. : )

Your wife is so lucky! I live in the dorm of the university, so, I don't have chance to cook delicious Chinese food here...
Actually, I don't think you can cook Chinese food instead of write final essay, but if you don't mind, you can bring them for us to taste after this semester~~haha

HAHA
And we don't invite the instructor to the party unless they promise to let/make all of us pass level 4

Wow! Cooking is very nice. I have already told Mohammad that he would make his wife happy just becoming a perfect cook. Anyways, your cook and writing will be same one day; it means they both will be A++++++++++++++++++++++++.

Your writing is very good and almost mistakes free.

Hello Kenneth,

Thanks for coming! actually I cook at my home with my boyfriend, we always make delicious food, but only one thing I don't like to do that is wash all the dishes....
but i agree with your idea, maybe we can have a party during the reading week and everyone make a dishes...haha~

Hmmm, I just might be open to accepting a wonderfully cooked dish in lieu of a final essay . . . oh yeah, I'm not your writing teacher! Too bad.
