認識自己 Know yourself well

2021-03-03 大魚英語 Be yourself

Hi guys. I am Betty. Today I want to write about my experience in NABF 2020. NABF was an art book fair in Nanjing held during 2020.10.16-10.18. I visited this exhibition and bought some souvenirs there. I made friends, talked with people, drank beers and listened to live pop music. It was a wonderful day with a lot of joy. Haha. That's why I want to share with everybody.

大家好,我是Betty, 談到我的英文名字,洛洛肯定又要說一遍我名字的梗。好吧,其實我原名叫做Petty。初中剛接觸英語時,老師讓每人起一個英語名字。我翻開媽媽傳給我的老字典,選了比較特別的P 作為開頭字母。然後因為Petty 中文譯名叫 佩蒂,很文藝範,書香氣濃厚,符合我心目中的那個自我形象就定了這個名字。

但是大學的時候,外國老師Merwin 馬聞道老師建議我改成Betty。可能是因為他覺得petty 和 pity(遺憾) 發音比較像吧,他不希望我變成pity.What a pity! 多麼遺憾啊!雖然我也不知道他當時具體的想法。

或許也可能是因為 Petty 不太流行,Betty使用率更高. Whatever, it is my name used now. And I use it for about 10 years.而且我這個英語名字使用了快10年了,從2011年 至今 2020年,就像我的手機號,快10年了。在同學們都紛紛由於各種原因更換手機號的時候,我依舊在這裡。6232是我的,6242則是我另一個同學的。她也依舊在使用這個手機號,我倆就像是11屆這條學生河流裡的兩顆頑石,矗立在南京這個城市。一個是2班的團支書,一個是1班的學習委。

今天我的標題是 「認識自己」,我的切入點是這次書展,這次書展啟發了我,使我更好得認識了自己。我通過書展上和展位裡幾位創作者的交談,更好得了解了這個世界,了解了同年齡段藝術生們的內心世界以及大家和這個世界的相處方式。

我也曾經是一個偽藝術生,我在高二,高三的時候參加了一個南藝畢業生組織的藝考培訓班,學習繪畫鑑賞,通過欣賞各個大師的繪畫作品,撰寫文藝評論(作文)的方式進行培訓。這個培訓班大概3000元,考上的話就去南藝(南京藝術學院 Nanjing University of the Arts)的文物修復之類專業。雖然最終我沒有通過南藝的考試,全額退款。但是我受益匪淺,至今依舊保留著對藝術的熱愛。

我從小一起玩的玩伴好像走上了藝術這條道路,她之前在南郵(Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications)的傳媒藝術學院。記得我去她學校參加辯論比賽的時候,她在搞一個手繪帆布包的展會。

我依稀記得我高考時文化成績好像排全省的前2、3000名,在江蘇(Jiangsu province)這個高考大省似乎是個還不錯的成績。

我這樣中英文夾雜寫作可能會被很多老師批評,不過,為了使我的讀者(中國和外國的朋友們Kate,Lina,Barbie...)能看懂,不至於取關,我還是這麼做了。請大家見諒。

我寫作的目的也是為了能夠整理自己的內心,不願被世俗化,我是一個獨立的個體,不依存於父母,老公,長輩... ... 在我的人生道路中,我做出了無數選擇,有的選擇當時看好像是錯誤的,現在被證實是有裨益的。有的選擇被證實是失敗的,權當做經驗教訓了。Some choices are taken and proved to be wrong; some choices are taken and proved to be correct.

我這個公眾號的名字是「大魚英語 Be yourself」, 我不做任何推廣,就在朋友圈給大家看看我的作文。了解了解我這個人 和 我眼中的世界。很早以前,我看過一篇文章,它寫人是孤獨的,每個人都是獨自前行的。我贊成這句話,人生的盡頭勢必是一個人孤獨得死去。即使是最親近的伴侶也只不過了解部分的你而已。完完全全的心靈契合(soul mate)是不可能的,就像三毛和荷西,如此親密的伴侶,最終也陰陽兩隔了。

最熱愛生活的方式就是了解了它的真相後依舊熱烈以對。I think that the most positive living way is to understand the negative fact of life and still love it.

I talked to Bonnie Wong who live in Manchester and born in Hongkong. She also agrees my decision to keep learning in university. It is a long journey to know yourself. 

She is just like me. She is 30 years old now.(sorry to let out your personal privacy) This is the cultural difference. Please do forgive me, my far away friend.

My favourite !!!大愛!!!!

To be an artist, especially in nowadays life, needs a lot of courage. Usually you need to do business to make money. That is how you make a living and how ro balance somebody's inner and outer world.

 

Just like being a teacher, you teach and learn the same time. You are not a dictator(獨裁者).You are a guide.作為一名老師,你不是獨裁者,你是領導者。你指引小朋友向前,引導他對世界感興趣,幫助他梳理脈絡,找到解決問題的辦法。

在這個展位上我還認識了 一個小夥子,他是福建潮汕人。以下是他的名片和作品。是一個致力於表達自己,願意創作4、50年的新生代插畫家。目前風格我感覺有點像美國 Cartoon 裡面的 史迪奇 Stitch。

I also bought a ring. Show off time!! It is mine!!!
