This morning, I painting the wall by myself. When I saw the worker painting the wall, I think that it is easy . I realise that it is not easy. I spent about 2 hours to paint 2km2. I get a conclusion, it looks easy but once you do it by yourself. it is not easy.

The reasons why I need to paint my walls is that there are some small holes. I searched on Taobao to find some tools and use the instructions to paint. I put a paper on the wall because it was not even. Then I called  the painter to help me fix my walls.

Today I will have dinner with my family. Usually in the Mid-Autumn Festival, we will eat duck. My mother-in-law will cook the dinner for us. The duck is bought from the supermarket because it is difficult to cook duck by ourself. I think now the festival is very boring.
