Our Reunion

After the Culture Day, I suddenly decided to go back to Kaohsiung. First, it is because Huan told me he doesn’t know when our next reunion will be after his job hunting. Second, I feel it’s been a while since 6 weeks ago, I don’t have a chance to kiss Machi. Therefore, I went back to Kaohsiung last morning. We had a good time. Grace and I talked a lot. I was surprised that she even noticed it’s meaningful in my code-switching. Honestly, there’s no dominant language in my brain. Whichever comes first serves to be my discourse. Also, when there’s not precise enough in my expression, I tend to switch my language. It seems when I speak in English, I tend to be more open-minded, straightforward, and expressive. That’s why I learned to say thank you and I love you in English first. Besides, do I have high expectations about my boyfriend or Mr. White? I don’t think so, but Grace listed some conditions for me.

  • Someone must have good English without further translation. — If the population of the pool is people in Taiwan, yes. The average English level in Taiwan is mediocre.
  • Someone has his specialty. For instance, he must master a specific field. — Yes, I admire people who choose what they like, like what they do.
  • Someone must have a good attitude like working hard and perseverance. — Definitely.
  • Being rich is not necessary. — Yes, I prefer financially independent.

In addition, I realized that maybe because I become a teacher, Grace is proud of me. We had a lot to share with each other. I deeply feel that I was beloved. I did enjoy the time and that kind of feeling was beyond words.

This morning, I went to Grandma’s house. Grandma gets old and Grandpa didn’t say anything except called my name and showed a smiling face. My dad told me once Grandpa told him that he dreamed that I married a principal’s son. This was funny. it also showed that they are happy that I become a teacher and Grandpa concerns about my marriage.
