Have you willing to insist on one thing for 30 days? If you ask me, I would say Yes! Well, actually I already made my plan. It seems easy, but actually not. 

Once, years ago, I made a plan to write a journal everyday. At the first, I was so excited, and I even bought a new notebook. However, I gave up that challenge after several days.Since I found that I have many things need to do,  and I can’t concentrate on doing one thing continuously. But this time, I wanted to try it again, and I believed that insist on is victory.

 If you search the data on internet, you will see there are tons of 30 day challenge, such as reading a newspaper, record a video or being a vegetarian. I chose to make different foods for thirty days. That’s a big challenge for me. Since I can’t make any food. You may ask me why? In America, even small kids can make their own simple food, such as spaghetti, oatmeal, etc.I remember when I was in the middle school, my classmates empyrosis by boiling water.After that, my parents do not allow me to get into the kitchen. That’s why I can’t cooking.However, when I go abroad, I found that it was pretty important to learn how to make your own foods.For instance, one times my host mom had an appointment with doctor. She don’t have time to make dinner for me. So, at that night, I was so hungry but I can’t do any thing, just because I can’t cooking.

Besides that, the movie “Julie and Julia” also impelled me to learn cooking. This movie is "an American comedy-drama film written by Nora Ephron.The film contrasts the life of chef Julia Child in the early years of her culinary career with the life of young New Yorker Julie Powell, who aspires to cook all 524 recipes in Child’s cookbook in 365 days, a challenge she described on her popular blog that made her a published author. "This movie is so amazing and interesting. When I watch the movie, I truly wanna have a try.

So, I started on Friday. 

Everyone loves Friday because it’s like a holiday save us from stress and test. Today I learnt how to make spaghetti. My host mom told me just 4 steps I can make a delicious spaghetti.The first step is get my supplies, before I start making my spaghetti I have to first get the proper supplies and materials. To make this spaghetti, I will need a box of spaghetti, marinara sauce, 2.3 lbs of ground beef, a 12 inch pan, a 5 quart pot, a stove, a silicone spoon and serving spoon, and water. Second, when I prepare all the tools and materials, I will need to cook the 2.3lbos of meat. Take all the meat out of its container and set it all in the 12 inch pan. When the meat is in the pan, then put the pan on the stove and set the stove to medium. After that I will need to break the meat into smaller pieces. When the meat is in small pieces, I have to start flippin ghte meat and make sure it gets brown all-around. The cooking should take approximately 15 minutes. The third steps is cooking the spaghetti, first I will need to fill the 5 quart pot with 3 quarts of warm water.Then after the water booing, we have to take the spaghetti out of the box and break all of them in half and set them in the water. Then, wait about 9-10 minutes for the noodles to cook all the way. The step 4 is to mixing the sauce. When I need to mix my marinara sauce with my cooked meat. So, take your jar of marinara sauce and pour all of it on the cooked meat and then stir it all around until it is all blended together. Then, put the pan on the stove and set it to low. 

In general, I definitely think it is a great challenge for me. I glad that I have this great opportunity to learn cooking. I hope I can learn more in the rest 29 days.
