Spain is famous for its tomato festival, called La Tomatina. It happens in a small town Bunol on the last Wednesday of August every year. During the festival there are all kinds of activities, but the most exciting part is the tomato fight. It takes place at the end of the long celebration. You are encouraged to throw tomatoes in the fight. There're many stories about how the festival began. One of the stories goes that during the 1940s，some friends started a tomato fight, while another story is about a local band. Anyway, everyone in Bunol seems to have a different story. Before the tomato fight, there are parades, musical band shows, street parties and so on.
On the day of the fight, shopkeepers cover their windows and doors in order to keep away from the tomato fight. At the same time, thousands of tourists and local people come to the town square together. Then large trucks full of tomatoes arrive. From the back of the large trucks, a great town band start to throw tomatoes at others. Then the crowds fight back, throwing the tomatoes at anything and anyone. Soon the streets are in the sea of red tomato juice.
Everyone is supposed to obey a small number of rules: You must squash(压烂) the tomato before throwing it and you are allowed to throw nothing but tomatoes.

Everyone wants to become perfect. Unluckily, being perfect may not happen. Here's some useful advice about how to refuse perfection.
Compared(比较) with others, you may feel that you are not perfect. The solution? End your comparison.
When perfection is your goal, mistakes mean failure. Your fear of criticism(批评) may keep you from taking risks or trying new things. Nobody is perfect. Take it easy. You needn't take others' words seriously.
Part of beating perfection is accepting that mistakes are part of human beings. If you don't give up, you will be successful one day. You shouldn't prevent you from asking for help.
Find a trusted friend, family member or teacher who is not a perfectionist- someone who can take criticism and has learned from his or her mistakes. Share your goals and achievements with him or her, no matter how small they are.
Cut out the words like never, always and should from your self-talk. Carry a notebook and take notes whenever you want to say these words. Realizing this means you're well on your way to changing them. The more confidence(自信) you develop, the less you'll feel the need to be perfect. And when you give up perfection, happiness can begin right now.
