A Chinese saying goes like this--illness comes like landsliding but goes like cocoon stripping" so many years ago when I saw the word "patient" for the first time, I remembered the two meanings immediately--when one requires medical care, he needs to be enduring without complaint. A patient needs to be patient. These days, however, I have sort of changed my mind. Sometimes a person is willing to be so patient as to become a patient. Care is required, not necessarily medical though.% W- F" R& C1 ?& m% }

Mixed all of them together--added more sugar--stirred it until you felt bored--covered it with preservative film--put it into fridge--stirred every 30 minutes--did it at least 4 times--scratch your fridge door for hours(100,000 times is preferable) and then enjoy your ice-cream! / X6 E3 |/ J' C/ H# C; @+ Z( ` ~3 m4 [* K& S. p* J5 ^ + v9 _4 i$ \5 @5 g3 M0 F* _ 9 t+ |) k+ c( ]. k/ R2 x; |8 \' J) K' a3 Z
