Today
The joys and sorrows of life don't always align between people.
Today, I stumbled upon a video of 兔女狼 registering something at the Da An Household Registration Office. It brought back memories of my own experience.
Wait... did I go to the Da An Household Registration Office too? I can’t quite recall.
What I do remember is that, that year, every single student I tutored was from Da An District. It was my first time taking on students from that area.I still vividly remember how unbelievably free I was that summer. And because of that, I swore I’d never accept students from Da An again.
Why? Because almost every single one of them told me they'd be traveling abroad during the summer—study tours, further education, vacations.
By the start of summer, my roster of nine students had dwindled down to just one. And even that one eventually jetted off on a trip!
Do you know what it's like for a tutor to have no students? It's like watching your paycheck vanish into thin air!
No students means no income. Plain and simple.
But looking back, it wasn't all bad. Without students, I didn’t have to hear anyone beg, “Please don’t take any time off—I have so many questions to ask!”
No missed lessons. No stress.
Instead, I found myself with plenty of time for a honeymoon. If my students could travel, why couldn’t I?
Haha!
The day
I still remember the day I walked into the household registration office to register my marriage.
I was so excited, so overjoyed, grinning like a complete fool.
My sweetheart tugged on my sleeve and whispered softly,
“Stop smiling! The people next to us are here to cancel a household registration.”
I was still lost in my own emotions and didn’t understand at first. But then I overheard the conversation at the next counter and it hit me.
The man next to us had just lost his mother and was there to cancel her registration.
Suddenly, I felt awkward, realizing it probably wasn’t appropriate to be grinning ear to ear in that moment.
I pressed my lips together and tried my best to look serious. But no matter how hard I tried, the corners of my mouth wouldn’t stay down.I was still smiling like a big, happy idiot.
That's when it really sunk in for me:
The joys and sorrows of life don't run the same course for everyone.
影片
今天，我刷到了兔女狼去大安戶政事務所登記的影片，瞬間勾起了我對往事的回憶。
恩？我也是去大安戶政事務所登記嗎？我不記得了，有點久遠了。
猶記得那一年，我收的學生全部都在大安區，那是我第一次在大安區收學生。
那年暑假，我真的超級閒。也正是如此，我之後就不在大安區收學生了
那年，暑假還沒開始的時候，幾乎所有學生都跟我說，暑假要出國遊學、出國進修、出國遊玩 (看來大安區的家長普遍要求子女暑假出國進修+遊玩?)
我那時候全部9個學生，在暑假一開始，就剩一個學生，而那個學生之後也要出國玩+讀國外的語言學校！
挖哩咧！你知道沒有學生，老師就要吃土嗎？
呵呵呵，家教老師沒有學生是什麼概念？
就是收入跑掉的概念
不過也正因如此，反正我那時沒學生，就不用聽學生在那邊哀
「老師你不要請假，我有很多問題要問」
「老師！快快快，這題我不會。」
完全沒有調課的問題，清閒得不可思議
那時候有滿多時間可以度蜜月。學生要出去玩，我也要出去玩 ヽ(✿ﾟ▽ﾟ)ノ
出門旅行去！
我要牽牽，我要出去玩 (灬ºωº灬)
哈哈哈
過往
我還記得，那年暑假，走進戶政事務所去登記結婚。
心中滿溢著興奮與喜悅，嘴角止不住地上揚，笑得像個傻瓜。
我家寶貝那時候拉了拉我的衣袖，輕聲細語的跟我說
「你不要笑啦！隔壁在註銷戶口。」
那時的我還沉浸在自己的情緒裡，遲遲沒有反應過來。直到耳邊傳來隔壁窗口的對話，才意識到，那位大伯是因為母親過世，來撤銷她的戶口。
我有點尷尬，覺得這時候笑出來好像不太好
於是，我用力抿住嘴，試圖讓自己看起來莊重一點。
但我的嘴角不聽話，它還是彎的很
我仍然笑得像是個大傻子
那時候，我才真切地認知到一件事情
人與人的悲歡並不相通
