母親節

明天是母親節。兒子、前夫都沒有跟我慶祝，因為我忙上課。很多人今天開始慶祝，但是我就上課教學生。我是家教老師，所以沒有節日獎金。如果我要賺錢，就需要上課。過年也是這樣，聖誕節也是。所以我每年就5/16及6/16停都課，因為是我兒子及我的生日。因為我是個体經營的，所以沒有帶薪休假。但是我覺得這樣還好啦。我喜歡每天會賺錢。禮拜二四都休息，這兩天都只需要上一個課。也是我的學生都很好。今天的學生送我起司蛋糕。是我最喜歡的蛋糕！昨晚最後課的學生送我洗手液。我不用洗手液，但是還欣賞她的比畫。我朋友有送我特別高雄的小吃，我忘了叫什麼，但是我覺得很好吃^•^別朋友有來我家跟我一起吃晚餐。明早第一課的學生每節日送禮物，所以我覺得她明天也要送禮物。家教不錯呢~

Tomorrow is Mother's Day. Neither my son nor my ex-husband celebrated with me, because I was busy with classes. Many people began to celebrate today, but I just went to work as usual. I'm a tutor, so I don't receive holiday bonuses. If I want to make money, I just have to go to class. Chinese New Year is the same, as well as Christmas. Therefore, I just take off 5/16 and 6/16 every year, because those are the dates of my son's and my birthdays. Since I'm self-employed, I don't receive paid holidays. However, I still think this way of life is okay. I like that I earn money every day. Tuesday and Thursday are my resting days, but I still have one class on each of these two days. Additionally, my students are all great. Today's student gifted me cheese cake, which is my favourite cake. Last night's final student gave me hand cream. I don't use hand cream, but I still appreciate their gesture. My friend gave me a special treat from Kaohsiung^•^ My other friend came over to my place to have dinner with me. My student from tomorrow morning's first class always gives me gifts on holidays, so I am fairly certain I'll get a gift tomorrow. Tutoring isn't so bad~
