Watch Anthony Bourdain’s show “Parts Unknown”

Writing exercise

Original

I love food,so i am always attracted to the food articles or videos especially those videos which teach people how to make a meal in our SE Wechat account. Although I’m not good at cooking, I loving watching these videos which can make me relax and let me image the taste of delicious food especially when I was in the time of dieting for losing weight. Also if the process is not complicated, I’m going to try it.
Another video impresses me a lot which shows a group of women wear the same outfits in different size.These girls have completely different figues,and many of them have never tried this type of clothing before.But they look confident and the suits really suit many of them.I am not confident of my thick curs and nearly try short skirt.I think I should show positive attitude to my figure
