Nowadays, most of us live a busy life. What do you do to keep yourself relaxed?
Besides spending time with family, having a glass of wine with friends or reading a book,
how about a hobby?
Personally, I'm a collector. I like blue and white pieces the best---blue and white
anything﹗Plates,jars,vases, cups, bowls---I love them all. Collecting items is like
something you can't get enough of. You get one, and you want to have more.
I find collecting to be a fun and inspirational hobby. In many ways, it's like a puzzle
I'm never tired of solving. I look high and low for new pieces to add to my collection. I
can often be found visiting Marshell's, looking over their inexpensive offerings. In fact, I
found one of my favorite pieces there.
I've mixed inexpensive pieces from Marshell's with more expensive finds. A lot of times,
it's the piece I'm not looking for that falls into my lap; I find a way to make it part of my
blue and white family. What I love about my collection is that when I get inspired, I can
move them around the house, mix and match and make things look fresh and new.
Ever since I was a little girl, blue has been my favorite color. I think I got it from my
aunt in Mexico. Some of my earliest memories are visiting her in Mexico and sitting on a
chair in her kitchen, which had blue and white tiles(瓷砖)from the floor to the ceiling. I
would spend countless hours admiring all the beautiful blue and white plates and shiny blue
tiles around her kitchen. Once I had a home, I began to build my own blue and white
collection.
B. reading a book alone is really boring
C. keeping a hobby is not easy for most of people
D. having a glass of wine with friends is not a good idea
B. People always want more than they need.
C. People may not know what they want to collect.
D. Once you start collecting things, it's hard to stop.
B. don't know what it is
C. get it unexpectedly
D. like it very much
B. When the writer started liking blue things.
C. What kind of thing the writer collected first.
