Yeah!Ezine!!

http://issuu.com/314706/docs/fasine ---> our Ezine!!!

     At the beginning, the first reason I thought it was impossible to make our own E-magazine with just using word document because I thought word document was only for doing essay, paper or something like that. And the second reason, there are only three people in our group including me. I was afraid we are not able to do it well as good as other groups. 
     Because we like to enjoy the delicious food then we decided the topic is about delicious cusine and some fashion in our E-magazine! It was wonderful that we choose this topic. We can not only taste the delicious food but also working on our magazine! Finally, we went to the places we would write about and took some pictures. The last mission is combine the pictures and the articles. Though it was the most difficult part but we made it! And I love our Ezine!!!!
