My Stories #9 - What I like doing in my spare time may by different from what you thought ❤️ 生活小確幸 #9 - 我的興趣可能跟你想得不太一樣哦

in #cn7 years ago (edited)

Hii my dear Steemit friends, how are you? :) As you may remember, we explored Townhouse last time. I hope you like it! I've joint Steemit for 3 months and I believe many of you have known more about me. But do you know what I like to do in my free time? Shopping? Cooking? Learning makeup? NO, I like none of these. Maybe I will, but I'm preoccupied with something else at this stage. Today, I'd like to talk about what I like doing in my spare time. It may surprise you!!

親愛的Steemit朋友們,大家過得好嗎?上次,我們探索了Townhouse。希望大家喜歡它!我加入Steemit已經3個月了,相信大家也已經對我有一定的了解。本來想參與 @jubi舉辦的「興趣」點名活動,但最近太忙錯過了:'( 那就請允許我在這裏跟大家分享一下我的興趣吧!大家知道我平時喜歡做什麼嗎?購物烹飪?還是學化妝不,這些都不是我喜歡的。或許有一天我會對它們產生興趣,但在這個階段,我的生活被其他的東西填滿;pp 到底是什麼呢?也許是大家意想不到的哦!

1. Drawing✏️ 【繪畫】

Dog - Acrylic colours 小狗 - 廣告彩

I like drawing from day one. OK just kidding. Colour pencils and acrylic colours are my favourite. I love drawing because I just like sitting there for hours and concentrate on one thing, whatever it is: drawing, reading, or staring at the sky...:)Sometimes I feel like I'm extremely introverted, as I like to indulge in a world with no one else but me. I don't draw as often these days owing to stressful academic life. But many thanks to @helene, the organizer of the Drawing Challenge, I've picked up this habit.

我從出生開始(?)就愛畫畫了,我最喜歡彩鉛廣告彩。我喜歡畫畫是因為我十分享受自己一個人安靜地坐在那裏,集中地做一件事情的感覺:無論是畫畫、看書,還是看著天空發呆......:) 有時候我覺得自己非常內向,因為我喜歡沉醉在自己的世界裏,不受任何人打擾。因為這幾年比較忙,所以總是抽不出時間重拾畫筆。但我要感謝 @helene舉辦的Drawing Challenge活動,重新燃起了我對繪畫的熱情。

2. Cross Stitching 🌹 【十字繡】

Cross stitch is a form of embroidery in which X-shaped stitches in a tiled, raster-like pattern are used to form a picture:) As I LOVE roses, they appear frequently on my works🌹 As you can imagine, cross stitching is not difficult at all. All you need is patience. Take the work below as an example,I filled up around 120 10x10 grids by hand ;pp When it's finished, I was extremely satisfied. The pleasure gained when you see what you started from scratch has become a masterpiece (in your eye) is beyond imagination.

十字繡是一種刺繡針法,因其編出的圖樣用許多的「X」編結組成而得名。因為我太愛玫瑰了,它們經常出現在我的作品上哦🌹 相信大家能想像到,十字繡一點也不難。它所需要的,只是毅力。以下面的作品為例,我需要填滿120個10x10的格子哦;pp 當我完成的時候,我感到十分的滿足。從零開始到成為(自己眼中的)藝術品,我所獲得的喜悅是言語無法形容的。

My friends, are you persistent? Or smart? Which do you think is more important when pursuing success?
"Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not: nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not: the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent." ——Calvin Coolidge
I guess we've got the same answer:)

各位朋友,你們聰明嗎?或者,你們是堅持不懈的人嗎?你們覺得哪個更重要?

「世界上任何一樣事物都不能代替堅持。才能不可以,沒有什麼比失敗的有才人更普遍; 天才不可以, 得不到成功的天才簡直成了諺語; 教育也不可以,這個世界充滿了高學歷的乞丐。堅持和決心,才是不可或缺的。」——Calvin Coolidge
相信我們的答案是一樣的:)


You may have some questions in mind: do we always have to spend a lotttt of effort in producing a piece of work? Are there any simpler yet more interesting ways to do this? The answer is YES!! Let's look at the picture below. I guess it's easy enough for even a beginner. And it's a 'masterpiece' with practical use. What do you think it's used for?

相信大家心中都有幾個問題: 我們是不是一定要花費好多心血才能完成一幅作品?有沒有更加簡單但有趣的方法?答案是:!讓我們看看下面這幅圖,相信這對一個初學者來說也算是簡單的。然而,這是一個既漂亮又實用的作品。大家猜猜,它有什麼用途?

Orange Rose 橙色玫瑰

It's a card holder!!!! It's a nice gift for your friends (and yourself), isn't it? For this one, the cross stitch is done on plastic instead of fabric for it's harder. Also, it's easier to clean :)

這是一個卡套!!它是你送給朋友(或自己)的好禮物哦!這個玫瑰是在塑料布(而不是纖維布)上繡的,因為它更硬、更容易清洗:)

21895123_10207928744614726_1173752082_o.jpg

If you wanna challenge yourself, you can do cross stitch on a painting! But make sure the paint won't fade!!! X) As it's unfinished, I'd like to show you only a small part of it ;pp

如果你想挑戰自己的話,你可以在畫上繡哦!但要確保顏料不掉色X) 因為我還沒完成這個作品,所以只照了它的一角 ;pp

Red Rose 紅色玫瑰

To finish a work like this, around 30 colours will be needed.

如果要完成一幅想這樣的作品,我們需要用大概30種顏色。

3. Playing Guzheng 🎵【彈古箏】

21908219_10207924883678205_1219171634_o.jpg
Guzheng solo 古箏獨奏

Guzheng is a Chinese plucked string instrument with a more than 2,500-year history!! Guzheng players often wear fingerpicks, made from materials such as tortoiseshell or hard plastic, on one or both hands. I started learning Guzheng since kindergarten. I perform A LOT since then!!!!!

相信大家都知道古箏是什麼,我就不介紹了:) 不過很多人不知道,彈古箏的時候需要戴上用龜殼製成的指甲呢!我從幼兒園就開始學古箏。從那時起,我就參與了許許多多的表演和比賽!!!

Guzheng performance at the age of 6 在6歲時表演古箏

Actually before I developed interest in Guzheng, I enjoyed playing electronic piano. And, I enjoy performing that too LOLLL!!

其實在我喜歡上古箏前,我喜歡的是電子琴。而且,我還很喜歡表演電子琴呢LOLLLLL!!

4. Dancing and Singing 💃🎤 【跳舞唱歌】

21875665_10207924883198193_711071375_o.jpg
Indian Dance 印度舞

I enjoy dancing since day one. Ok I'm kidding again ;pp I started performing at the age of 3 ;)))) See how serious my face expression was!!!!!

我從出生開始就愛上了跳舞!!;pp 哈哈,我從3歲就開始表演跳舞 ;))) 看我臉上的表情多嚴肅!!!

21895204_10207930301453646_17669399_o.jpg

I like expressing my emotion through dancing:) I've learnt Indian dance and Chinese dance, and my favourite are Xinjiang Dance and Menggu Dance invented by Chinese ethic minorities:) BTW, did you know why I was wearing my dancing shoes and costume when playing Guzheng (please see the first picture under the "Guzheng" section)? Because I had to perform Chinese dance right after I had finished performing Guzheng!!!!!

我喜歡通過舞步來表達自己的情感。我學過印度舞中國舞,但我最喜歡的是新疆舞蒙古舞:) 對了,大家知道為什麼我在表演古箏的時候要穿著舞鞋和舞蹈服嗎(請見「古箏」部分的第一張照片)?因為當時我一表演完古箏就要表演跳舞!!

And I like singing, too! I usually sang in chorus, and I got a first-runner up in my first solo competition!!! I couldn't find the trophy TT But is must at somewhere inside my house.

我還很愛唱歌哦!!我一般都是在合唱團裏唱歌,不過在我第一次參加獨唱比賽時,我拿下了第二的好成績!我現在找不到那個獎盃TT 但它肯定在家裏的某一處!

5. Sports 🏃 【運動】

21875761_10207924882838184_281205405_o.jpg

I like all kinds of sports, and I can do particularly well in running, long jump and hurdles. I used to be our school's MVP of Sports Day!!! However after I graduated from secondary school, I don't have much chance for doing these sports (expect running).

我喜歡任何一項運動,而我最擅長的是跑步、跳遠和跨欄。我曾經是學校運動會的「最佳運動員」呢!但自從中學畢業後,我就沒有什麼機會做以上的運動了(除了跑步)。

6. Learning Korean 🇰🇷【學韓文】

21875854_10207924882758182_511114698_o.jpg

I LOVE Korean language because of Running Man!!!!! Many of my Korean friends didn't know Running Man is THAT famous in Hong Kong. I wanna understand what they say without looking at the subtitles. Therefore, I started my Korean learning journey from Year 1 at the University :)

因為Running Man,我愛上了韓文!!!原來,我許多的韓國朋友都不知道Running Man在香港如此出名。為了不看字幕也知道他們在說什麼,我在大學一年級開始了韓語學習的旅程:)

21931138_10207930359695102_2074429610_o.jpg

As many of you may know, I was an executive committee of Korean Society at the University. It's a great experience!!!! I had the opportunity to cooperate with the Consulate General of the Republic of Korea in Hong Kong!! And more important, I've known many Korean friends! ❤️

相信大家都知道,我曾經是大學韓文學會的幹事。這真是一個難得的經歷,因為我不僅能與大韓民國駐港領事館合作,還能認識許多韓國的朋友!!❤️

7. Travelling ✈️ 【旅行】

21886856_10207924882718181_1721105026_o.jpg
Rome 羅馬

If you've came cross my Travel with me series, you'll know I like travelling a lot. It broadens my horizon, and it's a good way to know friends with different cultural backgrounds. You don't have to be rich to travel because we can always explore the beauty and learn the history of our own city at a low cost.

如果你有看過我的跟著Susan去旅行的話,你就會知道我很喜歡旅行。旅行能開拓我們的視野,也能讓我們認識有著不同文化背景的朋友。我們不需要很有錢才能去旅行,因為我們可以以低成本去探索我們自己身處的城市的美、了解它鮮為人知的歷史。

Do you think I'm an introvert or extrovert? Up to date, I've performed for around 80 times and joint about 100 competitions. I really like expressing myself in front of the audience:) However, I equally like being alone and doing whatever I like. Therefore,

大家覺得我是一個內向的人,還是外向的人呢?目前為止,我參與過的表演大約有80場,比賽也參加了有100次。我非常喜歡在人群前表現自己:) 可是,我同樣喜歡享受寧靜的個人時光,喜歡自己一個人,不受任何事物的干擾。所以:

If a bilingual is two monolinguals in one person, I'm an introvert and extrovert in one person.

如果能雙語者是生於一個身體裏的兩個單語者,那麼我就是內向與外向同時存在著的一個人。

您好,我是香港警務處處長Richard Lau,有什麼可以協助您的?您看似未滿12歲,有監護人隨行嗎?

您好,這裏是報案中心,剛才有個自稱Richard Lau的騙子冒充我們剛剛遇害的處長,請問有見到嗎?我見您酷似他,快快出示身分證明!

您好,謝謝報案!但您是共犯嫌疑人,因為您點讚證據已經上鏈了,潛在賄賂金額0.04可能涉及本港重大貪瀆相關法律,請跟我走一趟警署。

您可以保持緘默,您所說的一切都會被當成 橙糖正貢,放到第一線便利店銷售。請小朋友不要多吃,以免蛀牙。

公正的報案中心接線生,來來來接受一下我的賄賂,讓暴風雨來得更猛烈些吧!我打算保持絕對的沉默,因為沉默是金,請接受我對您閃閃發光的愛吧!
天吶,我好像並沒有保持沉默。也罷,就讓我所說的話變成橙糖正貢,大量地給予劉美女的兒子劉小帥哥吧!蛀牙問題不用擔心,馬份巫師會幫他解決!

嗯嗯?這是誰呀,竟敢冒充我!來人拉去打10大板!!!
