Day 122: Boston (Recital)

We went to Terran's recital today. The funny thing is that we arrived at the wrong library the first time, and it happened to be a recital there as well. However, it's a recital within Japanese community, so we realized right away...
今天去Terran的演奏會。好笑的是我們第一次跑錯圖書館,還剛好也有一場演奏會。只是,這是日本人社群的演奏會,所以我們馬上就發現了...

Terran did a good job, and all the other kids did as well. Besides piano performers, there are some kids who play the violin. My first time being at a student recital was both an interesting experience and a beautiful memory.
Terran表現的很棒,所有其他的小朋友也是。除了鋼琴演奏之外,也有小朋友拉小提琴。第一次參加學生演奏會既是有趣的經驗也是個美好的回憶。

After the recital, Amy and I took kids to The Mall at Chestnut Hill. Looking after Kiara kind of awoke my dream being a teacher. After I told her S stands for Small several times, Kiara, who doesn't know how to read yet, could recognize the tag and repeated what I said. There were a lot more different things on the tags that she asked me, and she remembers all of them. I guess this is the most precious gift a teacher can get: feedback from your student.
演奏會結束後,舅媽與我帶孩子們到栗樹山商場。照顧Kiara激起我想當老師的心。在我告訴她S代表「小」好幾次之後,還不識字的Kiara能夠認得S是小而且複述我的話。她還問我很多其他標籤上的內容,她都記得。我想,這就是一位老師所能獲得最珍貴的禮物吧:由學生而來的回饋。

While we were having vegetarian dumplings as dinner, because Kairan kept moving on the chair, Amy asked him whether he has a bug in his bottom or not. We didn't expect that Kairan took it so seriously that he couldn't sit still cuz he believed that there's really a bug, haha. How cute he is!!!
晚餐吃素水餃,因為Kairan一直動來動去,舅媽問他是不是屁股有蟲。沒想到,Kairan太認真看待以至於他反而更不可能好好坐好了因為他真的相信有一隻蟲XD 太可愛了!!!

 I learned how to use FaceTime today although I didn't really try it. It's not that hard anyway, I just didn't have any Apple gadget to actually utilize this app.
今天學了怎麼使用FaceTime,雖然我並沒有實際嘗試。其實根本沒有很難,只是我從來都沒有Apple產品可以讓我用到它而已。

本日英文習得:
Pecan(n.):a long thin sweet nut with a dark red shell美洲薄殼胡桃

Po-Shun bought a pecan pie today. It's a little bit too sweet, but it tastes sooooo good with milk. And the best of all is that I learned a new word. :)
醫生舅舅買了一個胡桃派。有一點太甜,但是配牛奶超好吃。而且最棒的是我學到一個新字。
