saying where something lucky will happen when you hear the chirping/sound of
magpies. So I am looking forward to encountering beautiful things or people
today. Maybe another nice student?I hope so.
"have a saying which says..." is correct, but a little repetitive. "Meeting people" is okay. But "meeting beautiful things" does not sound right. Maybe you translated from Chinese 遇到? Better to use the word "encountering" for "things."
