Now I’d like to talk about the difficulties or hard things I did in 2019. There were corona in our world and at the time everyone was in their house. I was bored at the time. One of my teachers suggested me to do something for me and achieve a skill which would be helpful for me in upcoming days. I decided to learn cooking because cooking is very difficult for me because I am a man. I always too busy with my studies and work. That’s because of those things I cannot concentrate in cooking. My mother helps me a lot in learning cooking and how to learn how to cook. Sometimes YouTube was very beneficial for me. I watched a tutorial video on how to cook in YouTube. At the time I learned how to cook. Now I can make many dishes like biryani, kachi, pasta, noodles, chow mein and many other things. Sometimes I provided new dishes for my family. When I learned cooking at the time I was over the moon. Right now I am living in Sileh without my family. Now I make my food by my own because it’s more hygienic for me. One day I will go abroad for my higher education. In abroad there are no relatives. I should live there alone. I think at the time I can make food for me by my own. I think it’s a very difficult thing that I did well.
