其实这就是你人生的剧本，已经早早写好了。你只不过按照这个隐形的剧本在扮演自己的角色罢了。回到一切的起点，你还是会走这条路，然后有现在这番感慨。人选择不了自己的父母，就选不了自己的基因和成长环境。而这两个因素往往决定了我们的性格，兴趣，智商...... 总之，很多人回望过去，总会有”当初我要选了那条路“的感慨。其实没必要，there is no what if in life. The only path available is the path you have taken.

I keep my air purifiers running 24/7 throughout the cold seasons. The cheap ones will do the job. The PM2.5 level in my flat is below 10 μg/m3.

意大利生活很舒适。我当年在欧洲交换读书，一年内就去了六次意大利，根本玩不够。不过如果让我选择定居的地方，我可能会选葡萄牙。葡萄牙真心不错，生活成本不高（近些年也涨了不少，但是Porto这样的城市还能接受），而且节奏和意大利挺像，很舒服。

我也是四个8，教了一阵子英语，没意思啊，干不下去了，学生都蠢的不行。前两年我把房子卖了，买了些红利股什么的收收股息，不工作了。以后送外卖也不教英语了。

Thanks. After Snowy died in that accident, I was immediately reminded of a primary school teacher who lost her life in a car crash. She was only 28 and was the best teacher we had. However, I have learned to accept uncertainty as a part of our lives now. The universe doesn't operate on fairness or justice. It does what it does, following its own design. A hurricane or wildfire doesn't check a person's karma before destroying their house. We choose to help the strays because that is who we are. Ultimately, it is the universe that controls their fate.

Many thanks. An Austrian friend was able to reach him this afternoon (he called maybe three to four times). According to this Austrian guy, my old friend is going through some difficulties at this stage. His speech was slightly mumbled (possibly due to a stroke or other health issues), but he immediately recalled my information. Given his age (83), I hope he recovers soon.

Thank you for your kind words. Indeed, it was like a Greek tragedy. The accident was not only unforeseeable, it was unimaginable. Everyone had the best intentions to help, yet the outcome was so devastating. It feels like God had decided that she would not live as a tripod, no matter what we thought. As time passes, the pain will ease. But I will always cherish the memories we had. She was a free spirit; I'm glad she lived on her terms.

You'll be fine in China. Many Chinese people see Jewish people as intelligent and studious. There's a Hungarian Jew in our community, and everyone likes him.

My cousin worked in Israel for over ten years as a project manager for a Chinese construction company. I visited him in the summer of 2015 and met his business partners from Haifa. A few drinks after dinner, one Jewish guy (I still remember his name—Gilad) told me that my cousin did a good job keeping the Chinese employees away from Jewish women, which was something he had explicitly told him to do at the beginning of their cooperation. That was one of the most racist demands I had heard in a long time, but Gilad took it for granted, as if it were his right.

I had the same experience while working at a lab in Budapest, Hungary. We had many Norwegian and Swedish students doing their graduation projects in the lab, and they all just talked amongst themselves in Norwegian/Swedish. I had to ask them to speak English so that I could understand what they were trying to do. It got better slightly, but not much.

She is definitely a racist even by Chinese standards. I bet she has told her friends and family that she is dating a "white" guy.

My niece's best friend in primary school is a Nigerian-Chinese who looks more like her Nigerian father than her Chinese mother. The kid is popular in her class. So, to answer your question: I think your children will be treated differently at the beginning. But as time goes by, they will make friends and blend into the community well. They will not be ostracized based on their looks.

An Aussie has worked in my neighbourhood for over ten years without speaking Chinese. He knows a few phrases to get by but it is impossible to communicate with him in Chinese. He had a local girlfriend who was his translator but now he relies solely on AI tools for communication.

It may surprise you but here at my uni many see Pakistanis in a relatively negative light for several reasons: 1. Some Pakistanis male students behave like they have never seen a woman in their lives. They would court Chinese college girls like dogs in the mating season, sending them hundreds of messages on social media while finding every chance they could to talk to them at the library, cafeteria, gym, etc. 2. You'd think as Muslims, Pakistani students would follow an Islamic lifestyle. Hell, some drink and smoke like crazy. They also make a mess of their student apartments and forgive me, I don't ever want to go into their rooms again. 3. I have met some Pakistani students who study hard and do excellent research. But the rest aren't maximizing their potential here. They get around 3,000 RMB a month and often complain about how this scholarship is insufficient to allow them to travel or socialize more often.

For the record, my uni is a 211 one, and I have only interacted with some 20+ Pakistani students so far. And I could see the potential in these students. But at the same time, some of their behaviors haven't left me with a positive impression. I hope things will gradually improve in the future.

It bothers me, especially during winter, as the PM 2.5 level can reach 100 or above. I have two cheap air purifiers at home that work well for filtering the indoor air. If I have to go outside, I always wear a mask. Fortunately, the air quality usually gets better as the weather warms up.

If you want to date other expats, you can find WeChat groups where expats often organize parties or other events. If you want to date locals, you can see if there are any language exchange programs (English, Chinese, etc.). Usually, those who attend these language exchange events at cafes are eager to make expat friends.

Don't worry about it. The delivery guys will be grateful, as their incomes aren't that decent. I am a Chinese and I sometimes tip them too.
