When I was in grade 4, I loved to cook and I still do too. Once I was trying to make egg without my mom's permission. When I was making an egg, there was boiling oil beside my pan. I didn't really care what was going on with the oil, so I was jumping in the kitchen. Then, I touched the pan with boiling oil and it went right on my left hand. I burned my left hand. It was terrible so I cried a lot. I went to the hospital right after that. It's all good now with a lot of care.
