and required words limit.
Imagine eating the dishes of 102 different countries in as many consecutive (连续的) days. That's what
Noah Galuten has done. He raced around the Southland (the name given to the towns and cities that surround
Los Angeles county in California) for almost four months, indulging in (沉迷于) lunches, dinners and a few
breakfast without a break.
Although he's not chef (厨师), Galuten grew up around good food. His mother mainly cooked Italian food,
and he recalled standing on a stool (板凳) making sauce when he was six years old. He also cooked dinners
for friends during his college years. And he had experimented and adapted food from many cultures.
Galuten's food journey began after he graduated from college. Unemployed and back in Los Angeles, he
decided to try something that he had a passion for. And he hoped it would help him 'keep his mind off his
unemployment depression.
Then he set up a blog and began his food journey. The requirement was to eat one dish at each place. After
each meal, he would write a biog about the food, the cost, the environment and the company. It was indeed an
incredible challenge. Sometimes Galuten searched online and contacted a friend of a friend for a restaurant tip
or seeking out local food companies, he mostly dined at inexpensive restaurants.
His journey also used up his savings. Galuten figured that he spent about $11,000 during the 102-day
experiment, including groceries, meals, gasoline, rent and other living cost. Now that he has used up all his
money and is $4,000 in debt, he is seriously joy-hunting.
But he pointed out, "I feel very happy now, although I am in debt. It's not to say that a lack of money has
caused my happiness, because the feeling is not related to money at all. It's more about doing that is important
to you and sticking to what makes you happy, then making it the focus of your life."

| If you are a mother and you have to give up your dream of receiving higher education due to the need to raise a family. Yet always keep that dream in the back of your mind while a tight schedule of lack of funding (资金) keeps you from pursuing it, then President Barack Obama may be able to help. He is offering education money to help those women who pursue their dreams. The aid, in the form of a $10,100 scholarship, is meant for stay-at-home moms, single mothers, and other women who want to go back to school. With this scholarship, the mom doing the studying will not have to work while going to school because the education will be paid for. Busy schedules are always an issue with mothers, but online education is available, which definitely frees up time that would otherwise be spent on the commute (往返路程) to and from class. All American women have access to the scholarship, which does not have to be paid back as student loans do. If you're wondering how going back to school could be beneficial to you, the answer is many ways. Such an education may give you the skills necessary to pursue the career you've been dreaming of, and you will be able to bring in more income to support your family. It will also make you feel more confident. Just think how nice that new diploma (毕业文凭) would look in one of your rooms, and how great you will feel as you are heading off to your first day at a new job! It will also make your children look up to you, and give them the courage to pursue their own dreams. Take advantage of the scholarship now, because it won't last forever, especially with money tighter than ever during this economic recession (经济衰退). | |||||||||
