這學期我們讀「最後十四堂星期二的課」，因為知道今世的這一刻孩子們挺苦悶的，我請大家想自己的前世來生，拿小蕙贊助的藝術紙，看他們可以變出什麼有趣的圖面。
This semester we read Tuesdays with Morrie together. Knowing that the girls are having quite a hard time dealing with loads of homework, this week I asked everyone to think about their previous and afterlife. I would like to be inspired by their creativity with the art paper sponsored by Huei.
本來想邊放英式流行樂，但由於網路不通，我轉放很有個性的匈牙利民謠，不知道是我的錯覺還如何，每次讓大家做手工時，我總是感受教室的氣氛變祥和了。
I had planned to play British pop, but the Internet connection was off. So we listened to the idiosyncratic Hungarian folk music. It might be my illusion that whenever I make kids do handicrafts, it feels so peaceful and pleasant in the classroom.
很多話題用語言直述，多少顯得赤裸裸，用一張圖表達時卻增加了那麼多詩意。
When we use language to tackle a problem, it feels naked. Yet, with an image, it becomes much more poetic.
我的前世是一顆樹，來生是快樂的藝術家，不過這些心願在這一生都找到出口了。
I was a tree in my previous life, and in my afterlife, I will be a happy artist. Luckily, I think I can be both in my current life.
而我這輩子最後會轉型成用美術教英文的老師，不會有考試也不會有功課。
And in this life I will evolve into an English teacher teaching with the help of art. What's better, there will be neither tests nor homework!
