“Learner Profile: Maebien, Go-pinas”
I interviewed my classmate Maebien, Go-pinas. She came from the Philippines and she is 18 years old. She speaks Tagalog. She has been living in
New York for four years. She has a job is setting for a wedding place. She likes to read Eona and Way of the Peaceful Warrior. When she has free time,
she likes to play computer games, cellphone, do homework, and talk with her mother on Skype. She likes Korean food. At the first, she thought it is
easy to speak English, but now she feels hard. She also thinks the best way to learn English is talking with others who speaks English. She has eight
siblings in her family. In the future, she wants to live in New York because she thinks once she gets a job, she can earn a lot of money. After she finishes
community to college, she will transfer to a four-years college.

There Are Some Types of Jobs I Would Like to Work
There are many types of jobs in the twenty first century. So far I am working for part-time job, but after a couple of years I would like to work
full-time job. Some types of jobs that I would like to work are hands-on jobs, problem-solving jobs, and creative and artistic jobs.
First of all, I would like to work hands-on jobs because make something by my hands and time would be easy to arrangement. Hands-on jobs
include farmer and homemaker. Both jobs are working with hands. Farmers can use their hands to plant plants, so I can plant many plants in my farm
and gather their food from farm ground, then sell to different companies. In addition, I can make some interesting things by my hands. The homemaker
is working at the home to clean the house with hands too. Also homemaker needs to wash cloths, dishes, and organize everything. When I am at home,
I always clean rooms. Once I thought, if I do it for someone I could earn some money and time could be flexible. These are two types of jobs I would like
to work because I can show my abilities to work hard and time will be flexible.
The second job that I would like to work is problem-solving job because I like to help my society. There are two types of jobs: police officer and
detective. Both two solve problems. The police officer is solves traffic accidents, crime events, and other problems. When something happen, the
police officer will take over in the first time to solve it. On the other hand, the mostly detective is solves criminal activities, such as to find murderers,
track killers, or track suspects. I would like to work both jobs because I can help people and solve some problems that happened and I can promote
justice.
At last, there is another type of job I would like to do creative and artistic jobs. Creative job could be designer and artistic could be painter.
The designer is to make a thing becomes popular and fashion. I like this job because I can design something and people prefer to use it with higher
technology, as the cell-phones, Internet, and cars. The painter can paint some works that show difference deeply meaning and new styles. As people
go to the exhibition of paintings, there have many paints on the walls. May be a couple of years, there has my paint on the wall.
In conclusion, I would like to work hands-on jobs, problem-solving jobs, and creative and artistic jobs because those three types of jobs make
me interested. Even though these jobs require hard work, they still attract me.

How to Make a Hot Pot
It was my pleasure to work in a hot pot restaurant and I can help many customers to have a wonderful dinner. The hot pot can bring warming in
the winter, and bring happiness for families and friends. Also hot pot is my favorite food because I can eat many things in a meal. So I always make
hot pot and call my friends to my home to eat hot pot while I teach them how to make it.
First, we have to make a list and go to the supermarket to buy something that what we want to eat. Usually people eat meats and vegetables. In
addition, some people cook some main dishes such as pancake, or cold dishes.
Second, the food brought from the supermarket must be washed. When we clean the food, we need to cook the pot until it boils. Next, we need
to set up the table and everything we need. Then we put the electric stove in the middle of the table because everyone can reach the pot. Also put all
food around the pot.
Third, before we start to eat, we need to make some sauces. The sauce will make the taste become delicious and the sauce depends on what
you like to eat. In addition, make sure the pot is boiling while we are eating. There is a small tip which is the food must be cooked and it cannot be raw,
even if you over cook the food, it is still safe to eat it.
In conclusion, those steps can let you have a great dinner. The hot pot is not hard to make. Also the hot pot could be eating during a meeting, or
someone’s birthday.
