Today I’d like to talk about a picture that I really enjoyed looking at. It’s a pink cake that I made for my close friends. I made this cake before we really got to know each other. And at this time we were just strangers for each other. The reason why I made this cake is that his class offered a cake for me and I decided to bake this cake. This photo is very special to me because while I was making this cake I felt very nervous. I wanted to look everything to look perfect. And this cake was pink, neat and carefully decorated. For my level at this time, this cake looked quite professional and I felt very proud of myself. And when I look at this picture now, I can clearly see my progress. Since then, I have improved my baking skills and I’m really proud. This cake shows how my progress was grown during this period and how much effort I put into my hobby. Also, I’m very thankful to this cake because this cake helped me to become closer with my friend. And at this time we didn’t realize it, but when we discovered that this cake was made by myself, it helped to improve our relationships and became more closer than now. I’m really thankful to this cake and that’s the reason I really like to look at this picture. It includes relationships, my focus and friendship.
