Well, to be honest, I’m not a big fan of newspapers or magazines as I’m a short of girls who is fond of reading books and novels but there is there is only one that interests me a lot. It is Health and Medicine. It is published quickly by Ministry of Medicine. I as much as I can remember, I’ve read it accidentally by collecting one piece of newspapers on my mom’s desk to read out my boredom. I was just looking for something to do to kill my time but at that moment I couldn’t extract myself from this magazine because I’m really into medicine. It’s all about medicine and medicinal herbs, especially Vietnamese herbs and it educates people to the uses of them. Moreover, it provided a lot of amazing information about the knowledge that I thought I can dig deeper into. I remember vividly when I was far away from my house for the first time I had a headache and unfortunately my phone couldn’t access to the next book so I couldn’t call my mom at all. At that time I felt so total impatient and to keep myself calm I had to run it through my memories to find some way to solve my problem and after that my pain was medicated and I felt so thankful about the knowledge that I had accumulated before. As you can imagine now I am still a Navi reader of this magazine and I highly recommend this one to you and some of my friends to read it.

It is published regularly by the Ministry of Medicine. As much as I can remember, I read it accidentally by picking up a piece of newspaper on my mom's desk to alleviate my boredom. I was just looking for something to do to pass the time, but at that moment, I couldn't pull myself away from this magazine because I'm really into medicine. It's all about medicine and medicinal herbs, especially Vietnamese herbs, and it educates people on their uses. Moreover, it provides a lot of amazing information that I thought I could dig deeper into. I remember vividly when I was far away from home for the first time, I had a headache, and unfortunately, my phone couldn't access the next book, so I couldn't call my mom at all. At that time, I felt completely impatient, and to keep myself calm, I had to run through my memories to find a way to solve my problem.
