There's a saying that goes: "no knowledge is a waste, grab it while u can , u never know when u'll need it". So back then In junior secondary school, we were taught how to speak French but then I thought what could I possibly do with that. young me thinking we actually needed to learn Chinese instead cos most of our imports are from thereπlol.
Now fast-forward to last month, I was on my way back from a dentist's appointment and I coincidentally ran into my former French teacher. He didn't recognize me though π€, but I had to greet him exactly how he taught us back thenπ. I even included telling him the date of the day in French like he always forced us toπ...
He laughed so hard and still applauded me for keeping up with the knowledge.
And as for a tip, he paid for my transport fare. That was a little act of kindness that went a long way π. I might not know where else I might need it but one thing I reassured myself was that no knowledge is totally a waste π§. Peace out βοΈ
