I truly believe I am a “good girl” in my parents' eyes.  I’ve hardly ever disobeyed them when it comes to school or my home-life. They’ve always expected me to give them my best. I know they love me very much, but sometimes I lose sight of this and don’t know what I want in my heart.  I’m happy, but sometimes admire the people who live freely and unrestrained; I too would like to have my own adventures and experience a more colorful lifestyle.  However, my parents often tell me which choices are more suitable and stable for me based on their experience.  It’s a struggle for me because I don’t want to hurt my parents' feelings, but I also want to live my own life.

I was thinking about which cutlery you choose to eat with, and the answer depends on the type of food you’re eating.  If you’re eating soup you’d use a spoon, whereas, if you’re tasting a plate of spaghetti, it would be useful to have a fork to twirl the noodles with.  For a steak, a fork is not enough because you also need a sharp knife depending on the tenderness of the meat.  To eat a fruit salad, it's more appropriate to use a teaspoon, whereas, to taste a piece of the Saint Honoré cake, it’s better to use a dessert fork.  However, cutlery isn't always essential: for example, to really enjoy a slice of pizza it’s enough to just use your hands.
