Hi everyone. Today is my 36th birthday. Usually you get some gifts on your birthday but at the school where I teach, the culture is that on your birthday you bring your own cake for other people to enjoy.
大家好。今天是我三十六歲生日。你們大概生日都會拿到禮物,但在我教書的學校,生日是要自己帶蛋糕給別人吃。
Since I cannot provide a physical cake for you all, I will also do a special competition – the first person to guess the right age for when the following photo was taken, I will give you a 100% upvote.
因為我無法給大家吃蛋糕,我可以並且跟各位玩個猜謎遊戲。如果能猜到以下的照片是我幾歲的時候照的,我會給你100%的獎勵。
Hint: I started learning swing dancing when I was 23. This is a performance I did after I became a swing dance instructor.
小提示1: 我在23歲時開始學搖擺舞。這是我在成為搖擺舞老師之後的表演。
Hint2: The swing dance performance was in King George Square, Brisbane, Australia. The performance was a part of a historical re-enactment of 1941 wartime environment when General Douglas McArthur arrived in Brisbane to coordinate the allied forces efforts of World War II.
小提示2: 這個搖擺舞表演是在澳洲布里斯班的乔治国王广场。這個表演是為了紀念1941年代的情景。當時美國著名麦克阿瑟將軍來到布里斯班,並開始指挥同盟國軍隊參與第二次世界大戰。
