Cha tôi có một sở thích khác thường: chạm khắc vỏ trứng. Như mọi người đều biết, vỏ trứng rất mỏng manh. Bố của tôi có thể tạo ra những tác phẩm nghệ thuật đẹp từ những chiếc vỏ trứng trống rỗng. Thật ngạc nhiên! Ông bắt đầu sở thích năm năm trước sau một chuyến đi đến Mỹ, nơi ông nhìn thấy một số vỏ trứng chạm khắc trong một phòng trưng bày nghệ thuật. Cha tôi không đi học để học cách khắc. Anh đã học mọi thứ từ Internet. Một số người nói rằng sở thích này là khó khăn và nhàm chán, nhưng nó không hề. Tất cả những gì bạn cần là thời gian. Có thể mất hai tuần để hoàn thành một vỏ. Tôi thấy sở thích này thú vị bởi vì vỏ trứng chạm khắc là những món quà độc đáo cho gia đình và bạn bè. Tôi hy vọng rằng trong tương lai bố sẽ dạy tôi cách làm điêu khắc vỏ trứng.
