I would like to talk about a family member who is a very important friend to me, which was my mom, yes. My mom is a more traditional housewife, yes. I think she influenced me both positively and negatively, and I also learned from both sides. Firstly, because her character is a housewife, so she must need to save money, and I think the first lesson I learned from her is know how to save money, yes. And I think I guess she is important to me because not only she is just my mother, but also she is the longest person I get always. Whatever we get along with bad or good, she is still an important person to me. When I was tried, she took after me and I cook, wash my clothes, and sometimes if I have some trouble, I would talk to her. And also we are very good friends, yes.

I would like to talk about a family member who is a very important person to me, which is my mom. My mom is a more traditional housewife. I think she influenced me both positively and negatively, and I learned from both sides. Firstly, because her role is that of a housewife, she needs to save money, and I think the first lesson I learned from her is how to save money. I believe she is important to me not only because she is my mother, but also because she is the person I have known the longest. Regardless of whether we get along well or have disagreements, she remains an important person to me. When I was tired, she took care of me, cooked, and washed my clothes. Sometimes, if I have trouble, I talk to her. We are also very good friends.
