Grateful for the good things that are happening on me

Tonight is the singing night. I told my teacher that I wanted to stop taking lessons. At first, she said ok. Then as I was practising the tunes, she reminded me of the opera pieces that I love. "O Mio Babbino Caro". As soon as I heard the melody, I was captured, as always. Then I blurted out: "Oh, I'll give it another month perhaps."

From that class, my another takeaway was to be committed to a gesture or movement. Show the audience you are enjoying yourself, even it is a small movement, a dance move, commit to it. Otherwise, the audience would feel bad for you too.

Tonight, I proposed to teach Ken English. His language barrier holds back his career progress. If he speaks good English, he would be able to stand on a much much higher platform.

我的室友张哥应该是我见过的最有趣的人了吧,符合我小时候对理想生活的想象。户外运动(骑行跑步轮滑滑板上周又加一个皮艇)、电子元件(机械灯、机械手)、电脑编程(职业)、画画(以前专业学的),样样都是我感兴趣的。在他的鼓励下准备十月份开始一个project ,另外发展水上运动。今天主动提出教他英文,不太确定怎么教,按照我以前的教法会太harsh,估计会打消人家积极性。从我的唱歌老师那里学到,其实可以gently push you forward。
