Trivial things
Time flies. I have passed four years campus life.
September. 2008
Four years ago, I went to college with complicated feelings. Having experienced the failure of college entrance examination, I lost my confidence and was disappointed with myself. Hunan First Normal Universtiy is not my dreamed school. But I have no choice. What I can do is to persuade myself to believe that everything will change, I will have a wonderful campus life in this college. Having these feelings in my mind, I began my campus life.
At the very beginning, everything in college was new to me. It is the first time that I lived with my classmates in dormitory. It is the first time that I communicated with people around me in Mandarin. It is the first time that I was so far away from my parents. Although sometimes I felt a little lonely, most of time I was happier than ever. There was no pressure of study and teachers' supervision. I just felt that I'm a prisoner who finally get freedom. The negative feelings that along with me disappeared quickly. I was so interested in my new life that I forgot all my failures and disappoinment. Being engaged in participating in all kinds of communities and getting a good knowledge of my courses, I almost made full use of every minute. The first year of college was full of happy and satisfaction.
However, this kind of passion didn't continue very long. Soon I was tied of community's activities and all my courses. What the most frequent thing I did was to sleep and watch soap opera. I almost spent every day in the same way. Sleeping, Surfing the internet and eating occupy most of my time. My roommates and other classmates seemed like to do the same thing with me. What we don't lack most is time. And we use all all kinds of way to kill time except reading professional books. The fighting spirit that we owned in the first year had gone away. Most of us were just lazybones.
Day after day, my campus life went on without any surprise and there was nothing out of ordinary. Occasionally, I would have a retrospection and decided to change the way I live. But this kind of feeling won't exist a long time. Generally speaking, I can't adhere to the decision I made for three days. I was doomed to be a loser.
June. 2012
Not having prepared good enough, I graduated in a hurry. When I came back to my school, I saw the huge banner hung at the school gate. Every corner of school was filled with a feeling of seperation. All of a sudden, my eyes wet. I suddenly realized that I'm going to leave school forever. I would never have such a good opportunity to make friends, promote myself and absorb knowledge. I would seperate from my roommates with whom I lived 4 years and shared sorrow and happy. In the party at night, I was surrounded by a strange feeling. I had no idea to explain it. Different from any party before, this party was just for us. But I didn't enjoy it. The songs and dances reminded me of so many things. Four years campus memory visulised before my eyes. Yes, although I didn't do anything great in my campus life and Hunan First Normal University was not my ideal school, I do have deep emotion to my campus life. Not until that time did I know that I love my alma mater and roommates.
