I’m cooking in my home. I put meat and salt in the soup. My husband said it is very good. I have cooked for 1 hour. After, I read a Chinese book for half an hour about a woman and her life in Japan. In 11 o’clock I’m listen to the music because it can help me sleep quickly. I’m wake up at 8 o’clock with my husband to clean my room, wash my hair and brush it for 2 hours.
