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.0 q2 z' W! r: p2 h

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! ; A& `4 l) `1 A5 [ M2 t : A6 i1 M3 f3 O3 ]8 R! c5 d) P7 y& b' {6 ?, q9 O/ B* S
