開始行動的第一天 First Day

今天展開了第一次的行動,前往我的故鄉--古城 .

前往紅屋的路上,
遇到了一對情侶,跟他們說我要跟他們換東西後,卻笑笑的搖手說不要.

第一個問的就不成功,會不會是不好的預兆?

到了紅屋,外國人不多,觀察了一陣子,
遠遠就看見了一位白色衣的中年男人在拍攝風景.

在他身邊繞了一圈,決定上前去問他能不能跟我交換東西,
他沒有拒絕,毫不猶疑的往包包裡面找能與我交換的東西.

他找不到有什麼能換的,
只有一本全新的筆記本,問我能不能,我當然馬上答應啊!

這是第一個成功的耶!

很可惜他留言的時候我忘了他留名字.

My project was kicked off today in my hometown 
which was a historical state - Malacca.

I met a couple when I was on my way to Stadhuys. 

However,

they just smiled and rejected my request 
to exchange things with me. 

The first approached failed and it makes 
me wonder whether is that a bad omen. 

After reaching Stadhuys, 
I observed a while as there 
were not many foreigners around. 

Seeing a middle-aged man in white shirt who 
was taking photos of the sceneries, 

I tried to approach him.

 I explained to him about my project 
and without hesitation, 

he took out something from his bag 
to exchange with me!

He asked whether I would accept a brand new notepad 
for exchange as he only managed to find that in his bag.

I immediately agreed to it and that marked down 
the first successful exchange!

Too bad as I've forgotten to ask for his name 
when he left a message for me.

前往探索第二個對象

我跟瑩走著走著，

瑩發現有個女士一直看著我們。

最後我們決定去找她交換東西。

我們還沒開口講解完，那女士就打斷我們的話，

從口袋裡拿了一支筆出來問我們這個能不能

好像已經早知道我們要找她。

原來啊,她就是剛才那個交換筆記本的攝影男的太太。

好巧哦～真的很感激她～也謝謝她留了她先生的名字給我們。

Heading towards the second target, 

Chianying noticed that a woman was looking at us. 

We decided to approach her and before we finished our words, 

she interrupted by taking out a pen from her pocket 
asking whether it would be acceptable

Coincidentally, 

she was the wife of the man we first approached!
