Remember my previous post about my frustration with the use of "Maybe" in China?
I have discovered why they use it, why it is impossible to get a straight answer.
It's because they don't know. Even the people in charge don't know.
It is because everything is subject to change, at any moment.
For example...the Christmas performance.
Last Thursday we were told that it would on Monday (today). We even had a practice on Friday after school. I get to school today, however, and ask my liaison what time the performance will be:
"Maybe it will not be today."
Why not?
"Maybe Big Ben did not find a place to have it" ...something that maybe should have been figured out before.
So now, maybe the performance will be next week.
Maybe.
