🌅✨🍃 A quote I truly love: “What is lost in the east is gained in the west.” It means: What you lose in one place, you will ultimately find in another. // 很喜欢的一段话：“失之东隅，收之桑榆。”意思是：你在某处有所失，在另一处终有所得。 Hěn xǐhuān de yī duàn huà: “Shī zhī dōngyú, shōu zhī sāngyú.” Yìsi shì: Nǐ zài mǒu chù yǒu suǒ shī, zài […]
☕😌🌀 People are just like coffee, too weak and there’s no flavor, too strong and it turns your stomach. // 人和咖啡一样，淡了没味，浓了反胃。 Rén hé kāfēi yīyàng, dàn le méi wèi, nóng le fǎn wèi. // Nhân hòa cà phê nhất dạng, đạm liễu vô vị, nùng liễu phản vị. // Người cũng như cà phê, nhạt […]
💅✨🛍️ Within your own means, buy what you love and reward yourself after all the hard work. Being cherished by others is a surprise; cherishing yourself is a capability. May you have both surprises and capability! // 在自己的能力范围内，买自己喜欢的东西，犒劳一下辛苦已久的自己。有人宠是惊喜，自己宠是能力，愿你有惊喜也有能力！ Zài zìjǐ de nénglì fànwéi nèi, mǎi zìjǐ xǐhuān de dōngxi, kàoláo yīxià xīnkǔ yǐjiǔ de zìjǐ. […]
💍💭🌱 As a young girl, I wanted to marry for love. A little older, I wanted to marry for money. When I matured, I realized what I truly needed was: character, responsibility, integrity, shared values. And later still, I thought maybe it’s best not to marry at all. // 年轻时想嫁给爱情，长大一点点想嫁给金钱，后来成熟了才知道自己要嫁的是：人品、责任、担当、三观，再后来觉得不嫁最好。 Niánqīng shí xiǎng jià gěi […]
🌙💭💔 I don’t have a third-person view. I can’t see your hidden longing, nor guess your vague concern. How much you love me, you need to tell me yourself. // 我没有第三视角，看不到你讳莫如深的想念，也猜不到你含糊其辞的在意，你有多爱我要对我讲出来。 Wǒ méiyǒu dìsān shìjiǎo, kàn bù dào nǐ huìmòrúshēn de xiǎngniàn, yě cāi bù dào nǐ hánhú qící de zàiyì, nǐ yǒu duō ài […]
🍡📱😅 After finishing this bowl of tangyuan, the diet starts tomorrow! (Pulling out phone to set alarm: Remind me to say this again next Lantern Festival…) I swear, this time I mean it! No more tangyuan as my diet’s stumbling block! // 吃完这碗汤圆，明天开始减肥。（掏出手机设闹钟：明年元宵节提醒我再说一遍…）我宣誓，这次一定要说到做到！不再让汤圆成为我减肥路上的绊脚石！ Chī wán zhè wǎn tāngyuán, míngtiān kāishǐ jiǎnféi. (Tāo chū shǒujī shè […]
🏮🍡😂 Other people’s Lantern Festival: moonlit and flowers, whispering sweet nothings… My Lantern Festival: showing off tangyuan like a pro, one bite at a time with “bereft” (burp). Eating tangyuan solo still gotta be happy! // 别人元宵节：花前月下，你侬我侬… 我元宵节：花式炫汤圆，一口一个”孤寡”(嗝～)。一个人吃汤圆，也要吃得开心呀！ Biérén Yuánxiāojié: huā qián yuè xià, nǐ nóng wǒ nóng… Wǒ Yuánxiāojié: huāshì xuàn tāngyuán, yī kǒu […]
🧠🔥🍡 When guessing lantern riddles, my brain feels like the CPU overheating… In the end, I decided to dip tangyuan into the answers and swallow them. Gotta admit, it is quite a “unique” solution, even if it might not really work. // 猜灯谜时的大脑：CPU 已烧干… 最后决定用汤圆蘸答案吃下去。不得不说，这真的是个”独特”的解决方法，虽然可能不太管用啦。 Cāi dēngmí shí de dà nǎo: CPU yǐ shāo gān… […]
🌱⏳📈 The time I didn’t share with you was the time I was growing. // 不曾与你分享的时间，我在进步。 Bù céng yǔ nǐ fēnxiǎng de shíjiān, wǒ zài jìnbù. // Bất tằng dữ nhĩ phân hưởng đích thời gian, ngã tại tiến bộ. // Khoảng thời gian tôi không chia sẻ với bạn chính là khoảng thời gian […]
