Last week, on Digital Day, I wanted to make a cake for my teacher. I tried many times, but I wasn't successful because it was very difficult. So, I wanted help from my best friend, Eileen, who is very good at making Thai food. I was very happy because she is great at it. I chatted with her about the ingredients I needed to prepare, and she made a list for me. I saw that there were too many ingredients, such as eggs, flour, salt, and others. Moreover, I had to prepare many kinds of tuna. At first, it was very expensive, but I decided to borrow them. I thought it was interesting because I couldn't afford them. The next day, we met at my home to make the cake. This was the first time I learned something from my best friend, so I was really nervous. But she told me to calm down; it was very easy to succeed. Then she gave me a page of the recipe for this cake. I was surprised because it was very long. However, my friend taught me quite carefully, and I was able to remember all the steps to make this cake. I found it easy, and I realized that the last time I made it, I had failed because I didn't follow the recipe carefully and skipped some steps. I really appreciate her, and I wrote a thank-you card for her. I think it was a small incident, but I wanted to show my respect for her because she helped me create a great cake for my teacher on Teacher's Day.
