Reflection 1
The plane and the car
Yesterday I was returning home after a trip to Bangkok. After a delicious meal at the airport, I set off for my home since I saw keen to see my family again. As I was driving along a highway , I saw a plane getting closer to the road.
I started to drive faster, but the plane kept on getting nearer and nearer. After a second or two, I realized I was driving along an empty highway with the lanes on the other side completely full and stationary. Was I in a dream or what? Suddenly the plane’s front crashed on my car and made me go even faster. Finally I came to a stop and felt so relieved.
As I sat in my car in a state of complete shock, I began to wonder what may have caused the pilot to land the plane on the highway. A friend of mine who borrowed the car the day before may have put a sticker on the roof which said ‘’follow me’’. Or, more likely, a passenger may have had a heart attack and the pilot needed to land the plane quickly. I really had no idea how I got myself in to this situation.
Still not believing my eyes, I got out of the car and was pleased to know nobody was injured. The pilot gave me a cheeky smile. I was not a happy man.

Unknown Camping
A week ago, my friends and I were driving on a small road, and nobody else was around. When we were there we sang all the time. Suddenly I saw a car turned over on its side.
As we got closer to the car my friends told me to stop, so I stopped and looked around then I noticed that near the car was camping equipment and a burning campfire, but there were not any people.
After that, my friends and I were curious to know whose camp this is, but I told my friends that somebody may have left this camp maybe because his friends did not come. My friends told me why we do not wait to know whose camp this way, and we waited thirty minutes but nobody came. Then I told my friends to stay here and they agreed with me. I told them if we would stay here we had to have wood to cook. I brought wood and we ate our dinner, then we went to sleep.
In the morning we went back home.On the way back to our home, we were singing and dancing and we felt very happy.

How to make butter
Making butter is something interesting but it needs a lot of steps . Following these steps carefully you will produce high-quality butter.
Firstly , check the fresh milk for quality and fat content then leave the milk to cool to make some cream on top of it. After that step you must separate the cream from the top of the milk then churn it. After this long step drain the buttermilk from the butter. Next place the butter in a jar.
