    Interesting question. I am no expert, but I wonder if the "piece of the pie" expression is related to the use of "pie charts" in finance and investing, for example. Of course, that leads to the question of, why "pie charts" and not "cake charts"?

    Very good description of how to use “boh”. I understand now perfectly. I would say the English (or at least American) equivalent would be “eh”, with a short “e” sound as in “bed”, accompanied by an actual or implied shrug of the shoulders.

    A small incident

    I got up in the morning with a pretty good mood, but then I received an email from the supervisor of my part-time job in the library. It seemed like, yesterday, when someone returned an adapter, I didn't discharge it successfully, and even worse I placed it in a wrong place. I don't know why, but I got panicked suddenly. I thought I didn't make any mistakes, just as usual, but I doubted myself in light of sometimes I could be careless. I felt bad, and this kind of thing eroded my confidence.

    I replied to the email, explained a little, and apologized twice. Then, I was waiting for his reply anxiously. One voice in my head was saying, he would dislike me and not trust me because of this silly mistake. But another voice said, "It's not a big deal, and people always make mistakes. He is a nice person, he will forgive me for the first-time mistake." I don't want to be irrational, but some anxious emotions just seem insurmountable. Only after my supervisor replied, saying it's fine, I sighed with relief completely.

    Emotion is intangible, but it can take control of people unexpectedly. I want to be the master of my emotions, but clearly, it's necessary to practice how to address emotions more often!

    <font style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);">This is amazing!! The only correction really worth making is  "I got up in the morning in a pretty good mood"  - not with a good mood.. One is in a good or bad or whatever mood.  Well done!</font>

    Q. At what times do you feel happy?

    A. When my boyfriend or friends eat my cooking foods and say "delicious" to me. I love to cook so my wish is to make people smile by my cooking.

    ( I'm not sure it is correct to use "food" . Is it more natural to use " meals" or " dishes"?)

    Yes! "eat my meals (or dishes)" would be better! :)
