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. + i' B7 Z N$ l) ~$ |/ h5 ] ! w8 u$ C- m# `& F6 P0 C $ e/ e5 {- c+ T5 U

Homesickness to me definitely includes missing the food in China. Several days ago, I learned from the Internet how to roast ducks. Yum yum... 4 t) m/ ]: V+ E9 F; ^4 P' ~- z% Z; m; ^( e9 Y. z/ g2 M3 H4 e

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!
