An awakening: I love cooking

About seven years ago, when I was going to college as a freshman to become an electrical engineer, I was convinced entirely that I have to be the feminist stereotype. The stereotype who does not like to cook, clean, be a mom nor be a homemaker. Later, I felt in love with my super special husband David. We became parents of David and Derek, I changed major to be a math teacher and during that time I realize how much I love cooking. I realized that I had liked to cook all the time, but I was denying to be myself  by pretending to be the feminist stereotype so that I could fit in. I have always  loved to cook. My mother used to get me involve in her cooking, making cookies, cheese cakes, and some experiments that later I will write about. When I am cooking I get to concentrate,  be passionate and I get the urge to perfect what I am doing.  Now that I look at it, it is so unnatural that I was denying myself to be me and to do what I love. The key here is to be ourselves, and it seems so easy to say but I really think that it is a goal of a lifetime.
