Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 教育研究所 === 90 === This study presents the oral history of a woman, Ying Ying, who called herself "Happy". Through in-depth interviews and candid retelling of the life story, her development is documented. From a background of poor family resources, she progressed into a capable and confident person. She learned to assess situation positively, understood her own needs, and conscientiously developed into a self-centered person detached from the rest of the world. This research further portrays how her adjustment to setbacks evolved into self-assurance. The whole life strategy of Ying Ying orbited around the axis of "I want to be the first". For her emotional needs, she belonged to her own world and enjoyed a life of no regrets. Her life story composed of families, her husband, children, work, and a secret extramarital affair that lasted twenty years.
