马小跳的故事 ( ma xiao tiao's story )

chapter 1 / 第一段

我今年 13 岁 , 开始上新的中学.天气风和日丽,真是太好了!我第一天进了课室时,发现了很多女生一直看着我。我开始觉得有一点 insecure , 拿出了故事书读。忽然,一位女生在我旁边坐了下来。我看到她,感到有点儿心慌。她介绍了自己说 : "你好,我是小美,你呢?"我的心怦怦直跳那时轻声的回答了 : " 马小跳 "

" 马小跳 ? 那么奇怪的名字,你是从哪里来的?"小美好奇地问。那时我紧张得没考虑好小美的问题就不小心说 : " 我是从 Woodlands 来的, 你呢?"
那时班上的同学听到了我的答案,开始哄堂大笑。我感到非常尴尬,恨不得有个地洞钻进去。小美笑得见牙不见眼说: "你真是太好笑! 哈哈! 我们应该叫你小丑!🤡"
听到这句话,我立刻摇了头,表示我的意见。

This year , I turned 13 which meant I would be attending a new secondary school.The weather was great that they,the sun shining brightly with a small breeze.When I first stepped into the class,I could feel the stares of many girls and started feeling rather insecure so I took out a book to read to distract myself.
Suddenly, somebody sat next to me - it was a girl.I was getting a little anxious but she quickly broke the ice by introducing herself as Melissa and asking for my name.I quickly yet nervously introduced myself as Maxiaotiao.
"Maxiaotiao? What a weird name,where are you from?"Melissa curiously asked.I was so nervous that I did not understand her question and blurted out " Woodlands"
All the students had heard my embarrassing answer and began to laugh at me.I felt so embarrassed I wanted to hide inside a hole.Melissa laughed at me and complimented my humour and suggested calling me a clown 🤡 instead of my real name. I immediately shook my head, expressing my disagreement.
