You guys are heroes. Second Friday in a row I tried to spook you -- and once again, you stood strong. Not even Friday the 13th could shake you! And that tricky number dictation (13–30, 14–40, 15–50…)? You cracked it like it was nothing. So proud of you all!
Highlights & Shoutouts:
You were just walking your dog when that cat (a black one??) jumped out and scratched your arm. What a nightmare! I hope you're healing fast -- your pup is lucky to have you. 💛 It’s wonderful that you’re starting to feel more confident in business meetings. Seeing your own progress is one of the best rewards of learning a language. Thanks for sharing -- it’s super motivating. Another English teacher in our crew. You teach kindergarteners in Beijing -- that’s amazing. You’re shaping young minds and hearts through language. Your smile really is the secret sauce of great conversation. Thanks for joining and sharing. You mentioned you studied philosophy -- who’s a thinker that shaped your views? With you, I find myself speaking in poetry. Cherry orchards, strawberry jam, and tango with your dear husband -- sounds like pure happiness. Chocolate and durian?? Only on Friday the 13th would I hear of such a combo :) Wishing your friend good luck on the interview! The weather’s hot but you’re so cool. I love your curiosity and your thoughtful observations --they always add so much. You’re in such a special moment in life. So glad you make space to share your thoughts and quiet magic with us. If you ever start a thread with your art, your process, and what inspired your images, know that I’ll be your loyal reader. Keep inspiring us. The weekend is ahead, but your main event is Sunday’s parent meeting :) Wishing you patience and maybe even some fun. , I didn’t get a chance to say hello this time, but I hope to catch you next week. Looking forward to chatting. P.S. Here’s a little pronunciation spell to help you avoid mix-ups:
13–19 → use a T
30, 40, 50…90 → use a D
Thanks for bringing your energy, ideas, and open hearts.
See you next time! ❤️
