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. $ [# c8 ^3 \' M; S9 O/ m- Y/ `- \; Z* ]9 |, G# @2 I* |

Whipped cream--smashed bananas(or chocolate or whatever flavour you like)--added sugar--stir stir stir: n4 t* ?4 r5 S9 a# W) A1 A
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!
