Topic: Recalling the subtle Mid-Autumn Festival

Host: Secret

Topic Overview

The Mid-Autumn Festival holds some significance for me.

Firstly, it falls near my birthday. I rarely celebrate my birthday, but because of the Mid-Autumn Festival, my aunt or mom usually mentions it and might even give me some money. 🤦‍

Additionally, the Mid-Autumn Festival is a time for family reunions, and it also takes place in mid-autumn, a season when leaves fall from the trees and the temperature begins to drop. This gives it a sense of farewell as well.

Moreover, there are many classic poems that describe the full moon, reflecting the poets’ feelings of loneliness.

So, let’s talk about past memories and take a deep breath to feel them in our hearts.

Self-introduction Part

Intro Yourself

Kick off by introducing yourself. Share anything about yourself as long as you feel comfortable.

Share a Recent Interesting/Happy or Anxious/Unhappy Incident

Let’s get personal! Tell us about something exciting or joyful that happened to you recently. Alternatively, if you’re comfortable, share a moment that made you feel anxious or unhappy. It’s all about connection and understanding each other better.

Discussion Part

  1. Would you mind sharing your zodiac sign first and talking about your most memorable birthdays?
  2. Did anything special happen during the Mid-Autumn Festival?
  3. Why are the rituals of festivals disappearing?
  4. Is there anyone you really want to see again?
  5. Which moment makes you feel like time is passing by?

Remember, our goal is to create an engaging and inclusive environment where everyone feels comfortable sharing their thoughts and experiences.

Let’s encourage open dialogue and active listening to make this English Corner a memorable one!
