Coming to the StarCraft to Be a Kindergarten Teacher: Perfect Transformation

"Teacher Sui Sui, it seems that you are very good. We have tried many methods with Lele, but she just doesn't want to raise her head and speak normally. How did you do it?" Daphne said.

"Actually, Lele just feels inferior about her physical disability. I noticed this when we were playing games yesterday. She really wants to fit in with everyone. She had already taken a step forward, but she looked down and retracted her steps. When she saw everyone playing, she showed envy in her eyes. So this morning when we came to the kindergarten and finished our morning exercise, after the other children went to the cafeteria, I deliberately sat on a chair in the classroom to rest. When Lele came to me and patted my back gently, I couldn't help but hug her tightly in my arms. At that moment, I seemed to have found spiritual comfort, and my heart was filled with countless words that I wanted to express.

I told Lele that everyone has flaws, just like me. My weight and obesity once caused me to suffer from low self-esteem. I always felt like people looked at me differently, a feeling that tormented me. However, over time, I've come to realize an important truth: these so-called flaws aren't true shortcomings; they're our unique characteristics!

Then, with some trepidation, I asked, "Lele, do you think I'm not good enough because I'm so fat?" As soon as I finished asking, Lele shook her head without hesitation, indicating no. In the past, others had tried to counsel Lele, and she knew they were well-intentioned, but deep down, she still struggled with her physical flaws. It wasn't until this moment, when she discovered someone who had experienced the same thing as her, yet was able to face and acknowledge her shortcomings without feeling pain, that she began to truly examine herself.

Finally, Lele and I made a bet. This bet was not only about our tacit understanding, but also a commitment to each other's growth. It symbolized our determination to work together to overcome difficulties and bravely pursue our true selves.

After hearing what I said, Daphne froze in her tracks, standing there motionless as if frozen. After a while, she slowly came to her senses and muttered to herself, "Yeah, we used to just try to convince Lele to lift her head and speak louder, but that didn't really solve the problem. Even when she saw us being normal, she still felt a deep sense of inferiority. Only when she saw someone like her did she become willing to make changes."

After saying this, Daphne gently patted my shoulder and continued, "Sui Sui, to be honest, when you first came for the interview, I wasn't very optimistic about you. After all, you looked very young and had just started in this industry. Especially when you mentioned that although you were 30 years old, you had eight years of experience in early childhood education, I really couldn't believe it. However, after the wonderful event you organized yesterday, the good interaction between you and Vaughn, and the unique educational methods you adopted for Lele, I gradually realized that I may have had some misunderstandings about you before. Now it seems that I was wrong!"

After hearing Daphne's words, I suddenly understood what she meant by that strange look she'd given me earlier. It turns out that in this interstellar age, the average lifespan is a whopping 200 years! And yet, I told her I was 30 and had even taught kindergarten for eight years. Remember, by interstellar standards, a 30-year-old might just have finished college and an internship.

Comparing myself to the people around me, it was clear that there was a huge age gap and different life experiences. No wonder Daphne looked at me like that; I must have been filled with confusion and bewilderment. After all, in such a long life journey, I seemed to have already passed many stages early, while she and others still had plenty of time to explore, grow, and experience.

Thinking of this, I can't help but feel a wave of helplessness and emotion. In this strange interstellar world, I need to re-adapt to everything, including my understanding of time and life. At the same time, I also realize that I must face reality, strive to integrate into this new environment, and find my place and value. Although the road ahead is bumpy, I firmly believe that as long as I maintain a positive attitude and continue to learn and improve, I will be able to overcome difficulties and realize my dreams.

"Principal, I have an idea for the Empire Love Kindergarten Competition. Could you please tell me if it's feasible?" Hearing me say this, Daphne immediately pulled me into her office. She closed the door and eagerly asked, "Sui Sui, tell me what you think! There's only a month left until the competition, and I'm still clueless and overwhelmed."

"Director, would you please take a look at my dance and see how it goes?" The anticipation in Daphne's eyes dimmed when I mentioned the word "dance." However, I ignored the disappointment on her face. I calmly opened my computer and began playing the music I'd recorded and saved on it last night after Wei'er left. As the melodious music played, I immersed myself in it, dancing to my heart's content.

Clap, clap, clap... When the song ended, Daphne stood up from her seat excitedly, clapping enthusiastically and cheering, "Sui Sui, you are amazing! This dance will definitely help us pass the preliminary round! I have never heard of this type of music, and the dance is also..." She praised with joy on her face.

"And don't call me Principal anymore. Call me Daphne. After all, we're all friends! And all the hard work we're doing is for these adorable and bright children!" Hearing Daphne's heartfelt words, I nodded without hesitation. "Okay, Daphne! Also, I've always felt really bad about Lele not being able to dance... but then I realized that despite her mobility issues, she possesses a voice as beautiful as a celestial being. So, I was thinking, if Lele were to sing the song for that dance, it might be a surprising result! This way, not only would Lele's strengths and talents be fully utilized, but she'd also feel her own importance in this competition—she's not just a useless spectator. On the contrary, the singing segment would enrich our entire program, going beyond just dancing to become a comprehensive performance incorporating beautiful singing."

"Okay, Sui Sui, no matter what difficulties you encounter or what needs you have in the future, please tell me and Lotta in time. We will do our best to help you and work together to make our kindergarten stand out and shine in this crucial competition!" Daphne held my hand tightly and said earnestly.

As soon as she finished speaking, we walked together to the dining room, eager to meet those adorable little ones. Along the way, I secretly resolved to live up to Daphne's expectations and give my all to strive for honor for the nursery. At the same time, I was grateful for her trust and support; this friendship warmed my heart like the warm spring sun.
