October 20 College might not for youI had myself so devoted to the French, had myself estranged all the other languages that without all the feigned accents…I thought my determination would resolve into a decent result on the test, I thought my “feeling” of the language could easily be materialized. Well, as always, the story didn’t evolve into the way it should be. The whole matter triggered more thinking about this college story. Some days ago, the newspaper reported a couple of college students who made their decision to drop in college. It doesn’t take the brain of a “rocket-scientist” to figure out the expense to finish the college, not to mention adding a couple of more “toppings” on your diploma, something spells a “PHD”. “College might not for you”, it might sound much more appealing to the westerners than us. In us, rational thinking never wins over, those vain prestige weigh even more than our lives. Different from our approaches, westerners do things most of the time in the name of individualism, or to be more technical, selfishness.
October 10 A long way “journey”Oh, please, God forbids me wasting my time fudge the difficulties! My whole complaining process was again initialized by finding myself in an awkward predicament, surrounded by the recent “self-suspension” from working and the upcoming tests. Everybody has his break point, not surprisingly; my scattered passion or patient to the job at FKC finally brought my “working” project to a temporary closure. Fortunately, there is an employment agency frequently offers temporary works. Like weeks ago, I was directed to serve a “Wine Taste” banquet. Although it is usually a one-time thing, the job pays more and is generally easier. Yesterday, my roommates brought up that those photographers of Nation Geographic’s are probably working the most “colorful” job. At least they are immune from working in the office and possess a free-pass to see the world. Finding the prefect job is somehow as hard as finding a needle in the open ocean, or to be more relevantly, say, winning the first prize in lottery. Recalling the memories from those ideal, childish times, most of my generation fantasized themselves to be an astronaut, a general or a doctor…some were so “devoted” to their obsessions that they draw pictures of them and when theirs stories are being told, the sweet lost its power and toy its magic… The first cry from our birth promised us with the difficulties of this long journey. My humble knowledge tells me that we could be the only animal who cries on his birth. So intelligent that we foresee something the others can’t… If this is the way life is, then my journey has just started! Bless moi! |
