In December 2022, a situation occurred where I had to wait for my visa approval for a solo trip to Japan. It is worth mentioning that I had planned this trip meticulously, intending to experience Japanese culture during the New Year. In terms of preparation, I submitted all necessary documents promptly. However, there was an unexpected delay in the visa processing. While waiting, I used the time to enhance my Japanese language skills and researched various cultural sites in Japan that I wanted to visit. I also explored local Japanese restaurants in Taiwan to familiarize myself with the cuisine. The waiting period, which lasted three weeks, was filled with anticipation and slight anxiety about whether the visa would be approved on time. After receiving the approval, I felt an immense sense of relief and excitement. The wait was worth it, as it added to my anticipation and made the trip even more fulfilling. The experience taught me patience and the importance of making productive use of waiting time.

2022年12月，我遇到了一個必須等待的情況，那就是我申請日本簽證的批准，以便進行我的單人旅行。值得一提的是，我精心策劃了這次旅行，希望在新年期間體驗日本文化。在準備方面，我及時提交了所有必要的文件。然而，簽證處理過程中出現了意想不到的延誤。在等待的過程中，我利用這段時間提升了我的日語能力，並研究了日本各地我想參觀的文化景點。我還探訪了台灣的日本餐廳，以熟悉當地的美食。這個等待期持續了三個星期，充滿了期待和對簽證是否能夠及時批准的些許焦慮。在收到批准後，我感到極大的解脫和興奮。這次等待是值得的，因為它增加了我的期待，使得這次旅行更加充實。這次經歷教會了我耐心，並且如何在等待時間中做出富有成效的利用。

Patience is a virtue, but my resolve was certainly tested one fateful evening. I had eagerly signed up for the city's singles mixer event, hoping to meet potential romantic partners. Little did I expect that the event would be so wildly popular! The registration queue snaked around the block, with hundreds of hopefuls anxiously awaiting their turn. After an hour of slowly inching forward, I finally reached the front - only to be told that the event was at capacity and I'd have to wait for the next session. Disappointment washed over me, but I stubbornly rejoined the queue, determined to attend. Two more grueling hours trickled by before I could secure a spot for the third round. To pass the time, I chatted with others in line, sharing our reasons for attending and bonding over the absurd wait. When my name was finally called, relief and excitement coursed through me. Though wearied by the long delay, I was grateful for the opportunity and vowed to make the most of the evening.

耐心是一種美德，但我的決心在一個命運攸關的夜晚確實受到了考驗。我熱切地報名參加了這座城市的單身交際活動，希望能結識潛在的浪漫伴侶。沒想到這次活動竟然如此受歡迎！登記隊伍在整個街區蜿蜒曲折，數百名滿懷希望的人焦急地等待著。經過一個小時的緩慢前行，我終於到達了前面——卻被告知活動已額滿，我必須等待下一場活動。失望淹沒了我，但我頑固地重新加入等候隊伍，決心參加。又過了兩個小時，我終於獲得了第三輪的參與資格。為了打發時間，我和排隊的其他人聊天，分享我們參加的原因，並在荒謬的等待中建立聯繫。當我的名字終於被叫到時，我感到如釋重負和興奮。儘管因長時間的耽擱而感到疲憊，但我很感激有這個機會，並發誓要充分利用這個夜晚。
