接下来我要给大家讲个故事，我自己的故事。
jiē xiàlái wǒ yào gěi dàjiā jiǎng ge gùshi ，wǒ zìjǐ de gùshi 。
Next, I'd like to tell you all a story. My story.
我的大学在市郊，周末回家要坐两个多小时的班车 。一般我都是抱着书包，带着耳机，半打着瞌睡来消磨这段时光。不过从那天开始，这一切都改变了。
wǒ de dàxué zài shìjiāo ，zhōumò huíjiā yào zuò liǎng ge duō xiǎoshí de bānchē 。yībān wǒ dōushì bào zhe shūbāo ，dài zhe ěrjī ，bàn dǎ zhe kēshuì lái xiāomó zhè duàn shíguāng 。bùguò cóng nà tiān kāishǐ ，zhè yīqiè dōu gǎibiàn le 。
My university is in the suburbs and so when I go home on the weekends I need to take a bus for 2 hours. I usually hold my bag, put on my headphones and doze off to kill the time. But on this day, everything changed.
因为天气一下子转凉，任课老师生病没来，所以周五少了几节课，而我也能早点离校回家。
yīnwèi tiānqì yīxiàzi zhuǎn liáng ，rènkè lǎoshī shēngbìng méi lái ，suǒyǐ zhōuwǔ shǎo le jǐ jié kè ，ér wǒ yě néng zǎodiǎn lí xiào huíjiā 。
Because at the time the weather had suddenly turned cold, many teachers hadn’t been coming to school. That Friday there were a few less classes and I was able to go home early.
我像平时一样上了班车找了个窗口座位坐下，掏出耳机正准备带上。不经意间，发现了在我前面，与我隔一个座位，坐着一个女孩。虽然是背对着我，但清秀的背影引起了我对她的无限遐想。特别是她那乌黑的头发和麻花辫，还有辫子末端的红头绳，非常别致脱俗。班车过了两站她就下车了。但这一路上，我睡意全无，连到站下车的时候还在揣测她的样貌。

I boarded the bus as usual and found a window seat. I sat down, got out my earphones and was getting ready to put them in. Then, suddenly, I realized there was a girl sitting one seat ahead of me. Even though I was sitting behind her, just the elegant view of her back was enough to draw me into an unending daydream. In particular, it was her raven-black hair. It was pulled back into a single braid with a red hair-tie fastened onto the end. It was so unique yet refined. After the bus had gone only two stops, she got off. That time around, I couldn't sleep at all. Until the very last stop I still was guessing at what she might look like.
