People on the road - Nino

Chinese Version / 中文版本

Nino is a Georgian with Armenian descent
who has pale white skin and blonde hair
At first glance you would think she's a Russian
Though her personality is so different from her aloof look
that she is indeed very hospitable to other people

In spite of her short body
she already became the representative of Georgian National Swimming Team
and specialized in butterfly and freestyle
She also took part in several international competitions on behalf of Georgia
From an early age, she started to receive long-term training
which she woke up at 5 in the morning
Her father would take her to the swimming pool after breakfast
Then she had to go to school at 8
Until 3 p.m. she went back to practice in the swimming pool
She went back home for dinner at 6 p.m. and went to bed at 8 p.m.
Her everyday life was very disciplined
and it lasted until she graduated from the university
She then quit swimming and began a new page of her life

After graduation she worked as a production editor at one TV station
Everyday she just sat in front of the computer
which showed a big contrast to her previous life style
Besides, she started to gain so much weight without proper exercise
When she reached 27 years old
She was convinced by her swimming coach to go back to the national team
because they were lacked of swimming talents
At that moment, she was unwilling to do that
Firstly, her body size was changed and her stamina wasn't the same as her glorious past
Secondly, her competitors were all 14 or 15 y.o. girls, it's unnecessary to expose her weakness
At last, she gave 3 months of training time for herself
3 months later, she represented Georgia to participate in the international swimming competition
At that time, all she wanted to do was to try her best
In the end, she defeated those teenage girls
and won one silver medal and one gold medal
She even broke her best record as well
From then on, she always showed herself as an example to encourage other people
"Nothing is impossible in the world"

Afterwards she continued to work at the TV station
and officially quit swimming
Under the reluctant circumstance, she got married with Ramazi
Why reluctant? Because she loved her job, her family and her friends
She didn't want to be constrained by marriage
To further check with how Ramazi proposed to her
He said, "Nothing special, I just told her that we had to get married."
With no ring nor romantic sweet talks
She finally chose to marry Ramazi
because she also loved him

Later, she felt pressured by the marriage life
After all, marriage was not only about the two of them
but also their families
Every time when Ramazi's mom came visit
She often wore a hypocritical smile on her face
yet wondered in her mind, "Why don't you go back home already?"
Never thought that this kind of old fashioned in-law disputes would happen in Georgia, too

They have already married for 6 years
She has still been working in front of the computer
and having the irregular time schedule of eating and sleeping
In addition to her smoking addiction
her health has become very poor
and she even had miscarriage twice in these 6 years
As a result, she decided to quit her job at the TV station
and run a family hostel with Ramazi together

Today is Nino's 34 year-old birthday
I hope she will continue to have a healthy and happy life
ნინო, ბედნიერი!
