Tener memoria de pez

Hi everyone, this is Jesse, your story writer, and you’re listening to the Being a Cloud podcast. 

More teachers are waking up to the power of stories to teach languages, and on this show, I share the stories I’ve made with my italki students for you to enjoy. 

Are you an ESL student? Do you want to make a story? Book a lesson with me and let’s create one together. 

In this story, an orange named Orangutan gets an unexpected text message from his girlfriend. This is part 1 of 3.  

~~~

Orangutan the Orange

Rain is pouring heavily onto a small town somewhere in Russia. It’s 8:15 in the morning on a cold Monday. 

Inside of a small, community-run gym, there is an angry-looking orange lifting some weights. It’s early, so no other members are in the gym. Not all the lights are turned on. The fourteen-year-old orange is alone lifting some dumbbells. 

8 – 9 – 10 – Rest… 

He takes in huge breathes to recover. He seems very driven to push his body to its limits. 

Again… 1 – 2 – 3… 

After completing his 5th set, the orange walks over to the bench press. He lays down on the bench, grabs the steel bar and lifts the 50kg weights. He’s very strong for such a young piece of fruit. 

Then, his mobile phone makes a sound. The orange completes his set, then grabs his phone from his bag. Two new messages have arrived. He opens the first one and scans the text. 

Hi, Orangutan, my dear, it’s me. I’m sorry to say, but our relationship is over. Please don’t visit me or call me anymore. You’re very strong and handsome, but you’re not polite or considerate. While I do care for you, sometimes I don’t feel safe around you…

The message stops there. It continues in the second message. But Orangutan feels so insulted and hurt by the message. He instantly deletes both of the messages, without reading the second.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊【相亲】的话题。
在中国，相亲是一种很常见的找结婚对象的方式。相亲也分为很多种，亲戚介绍，朋友介绍，或者同事介绍。还有一些新的方式，例如在网上的婚恋平台找对象，甚至是参加相亲的电视节目。
有些公园还出现了一个特别的地方“相亲角”。在那里，你可以看到墙上贴着很多纸，上面写着单身男女的个人信息。年龄、身高、学历、工作、收入、对另一半的要求。去那里的基本上是这些单身男女的父母，他们非常希望自己的孩子能早一点找到对象，结婚。
很多人大学毕业以后，家里就开始安排相亲了。我在刚毕业的时候也参加过一次相亲。那个男生是我叔叔的朋友的儿子，因为我们在同一个城市工作，还是老乡，他们觉得很合适。我们加了微信开始聊天，然后一起去吃了几次饭。后面没有成功，因为他希望找一个人早一点结婚，而我还没有准备好要结婚。我觉得这是中国式相亲最大的一个特点，就是“希望早点儿结婚”。那是我第一次相亲，也是最后一次，因为我不喜欢这种要很快结婚的感觉。
我很多回老家工作的女生朋友都是通过相亲结婚的，基本上一年内就会结婚，然后生小孩。在大城市的朋友有通过相亲脱单，也有通过参加活动认识另一半的，单身的人也不少。
我觉得不管是什么形式的相亲，都是一个让我们认识人的机会。最关键的是你要想清楚自己要找什么样的人， 过什么样的生活。
你支持相亲吗？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
