雙語故事：那次令人尷尬的事

This happened 2 years ago.

這件事發生在兩年前。

During 5th semester, our prof was teaching Operating Systems via slides. His laptop had no charge and he forgot to bring his charger. He asked one of us to volunteer and bring laptop from hostel. As I was sitting in the first row, I went to bring my laptop and returned from the hostel within 5 minutes. After connecting the laptop to the projector, the laptop was slowly booting up.

在第五學期的時候，我們教授用幻燈片教《操作系統》這門課。他的筆記本電腦沒電了，而他又忘記帶充電器，所以他問我們有誰自愿從學生宿舍拿筆記本電腦過來。當時我坐在第一排，所以我回宿舍拿我的電腦，然后在5分鐘之內回來了，在電腦連上投影儀之后，電腦慢慢啟動。

突然間這張壁紙被投影到大屏幕上：

Needless to say, we studied no Operating Systems on that day.

毋庸置疑，我們那天沒學習任何關于《操作系統》的事。

So a cousin of mine had gotten married and after 4-5 months they both went on a holiday and she started putting up pictures of herself and her hubby on Facebook. She had put on a lot of weight by this time.

我的一個表姐結婚了，在4、5個月之后他們夫妻倆跑去度假，然后她開始把自己和她老公的照片放到Facebook上。在那時，她的體重增加了很多。

So once she uploaded this picture of them holidaying where she wore a loose l-love-Singapore tee with an animated colourful Merlion on the stomach. There was nothing wrong with the picture, except that her husband was pointing at the Merlion and they were both extremely happy. Now, I being the stupid, quickly-jumping-to-conclusions idiot, commented on the picture that went like this-"Omg you guys! Congratulations! I can`t wait to be an Aunt. When`s the due date?" and forgot about it. The comment got so many likes within no time and everybody else also started posting similar congratulatory stuff on her and her husband`s wall.

有一次她上傳了一張他們度假的照片，照片上的她穿著一件寬松的寫著“l-love-Singapore”(直譯：我愛新加坡)的T恤衫。在肚子的那個位置印著一只色彩鮮艷、生動形象的魚尾獅。這張圖也沒什么，但是她丈夫指著這只魚尾獅，兩個人還笑得非常開心。那個時候，我，一個草率下結論的傻瓜，非常愚蠢地在那張圖下面發了像這樣的評論——“我的天!你們倆!祝賀你們!我等不及要做阿姨了。預產期是什么時候?”然后就忘了這件事。這條評論不一會兒就獲得了很多個贊，每個人還都開始在她和她丈夫的留言墻上寫上類似的祝賀語。

Her husband called me up the next day, from her phone and told me that I shouldn`t have posted that comment, she wouldn`t stop crying and that now she was inconsolable because she felt she had put on so much weight that everybody believed she was pregnant whereas SHE WAS NOT. Moreover, everybody kept calling, texting them to congratulate them and that their holiday was almost ruined. She even refused to leave the hotel room because she was feeling so self-conscious now. That was the most embarrassing moment of my life.

第二天她的丈夫就用她的電話打給我，告訴我不該寫那條評論，她一直在哭，傷心欲絕，因為她覺得自己胖了那么多，以至于每個人都相信她懷孕了，然而她并沒有。而且，所有人都給他們打電話、發短信祝賀他們，他們的假期幾乎毀了。她甚至拒絕離開酒店房間因為她非常難為情。那幾乎是我人生中最尷尬的時刻。

Later, she(both of them actually) had to post a public message on their walls clarifying that she wasn`t expecting or anything contrary to popular belief. Up to this day I can`t look her in the eyes without feeling embarrassed.

后來，她(事實上是他們倆)不得不發一封群消息在他們的留言墻上，澄清她并沒有像大家都認為的那樣懷孕了。直到今天我看著她的眼睛時都覺得非常尷尬。
