I love chicken and beef because they are delicious and tasty. I like meat in general but I can’t stand fish, it is disgusting ! I don’t really like vegetables, for example I hate endive because it is too bitter and I don’t relly like spinach because it is tasteless. I think I prefer sweet food to savoury food. Actually, I am a big fan of sweet food, I love all kinds of cakes! I enjoy most fruits but I don’t really enjoy apples because they are often sour.

I love the European style, but I prefer Southeastern Asian countries, for instance Burma.
Nothing can compare to this country. Burmese beauty is recognizable everywhere. I've been to some other incredible countries, though, where you can't practice any prohibited rituals. You should respect the law. Otherwise you can get into trouble.

I SAW a magpie in the garden this morning. I TOOK my camera and HELD it firmly with my hands to take a picture of the bird. The magpie STOLE a small shining stone near the pond, and then it SPREAD its wings and ROSE high in the sky. It FLEW for a few minutes before landing on a branch. I SENT the picture to my best friend.

Early this morning I RODE my mountain bike in the forest. I WAS in the middle of the forest when I suddenly HEARD a noise which quickly GREW louder and louder. When I SAW it WAS a wild boar, I immediately HID behind a huge tree and STOOD motionless. Fortunately, a hunter CAME up and SHOT the wild boar. He LED me to a log cabin and LET me rest there a little. We SHOOK hands when it WAS time to leave.
