All the things we know about the future
In the past, we were tired of teachers repeating words, but we forgot what needs to be repeated. Yes, only the important things need to be repeated. Most teachers have a lot of experience under which they don't spend their precious time saying useless things. From today on, please listen attentively, to listen to those words you never care about but benefit you later! Before we also like to say to ourselves, from tomorrow on, I want...... But I forgot, tomorrow is endless. So hindsight, those "from now on" commitment, than "from tomorrow" can be more fulfilled. In the past, we also had to write a paper, missed the meal, and casually deal with their stomach. But please take good care of yourself. It's more than just your head. Do not know the college entrance examination in July you have started impetuous. As a June 19 college entrance examination examinee, now April has a fickle psychology. Mentality is not so good, every day to think east and west. I also listen to the teacher said, impetuous is normal, yes, I still admit that it is normal, because of its universal evidence of the normal two words. But is it true what is normal and universal? Before the college entrance examination of me, the answer may be correct, but after the college entrance examination of me no longer think it is correct, try to ask how many mentality impetuous people finally the college entrance examination good? The answer should be very few. So in the face of their own impetuous, you really powerless? You can have a good communication with a teacher you can talk to, you can have effective communication with your friends, and there are many, many ways you can break through it. There is nothing you cannot do if you will. Now whether you also left a way back for yourself, or double first-class university for ordinary one; Or it is undergraduate course becomes specialized subject. Can not be denied, I also give myself a later path - repeat study, because I am worried that they want to go to the place did not go, like the university failed to pass the examination. But I forgot, most of the time, don't leave behind, there is a better way out. Don't have the heart to push yourself, never know how good you will be. Here I also want to mention the issue of love, some love relationships are mutual progress, and some love relationships are mutual degradation. Everyone likes the former very much, but WHAT I want to say is not to encourage you to find excellent people to express your feelings, on the contrary, I hope you can restrain your inner joy at this moment, and wait for the college entrance examination to mention it. Because your confession will send a lot of thoughts into your head, as well as hers. Emotions are really hard to control. The best way is never to understand them. Teen idol dramas are great, but when you think about it, most of them don't start in high school. Learning tips this piece, in fact, there is no more to say, directly on the dry goods. 1. Mention the subjects that you can improve your score, not the so-called advantage subjects, nor the weak subjects, but to mention the subjects that you can improve your score in these few days.
Our Story
Now happily, my friends and I recall the days and experiences of our college entrance examination, and still think it is a beautiful memory worth remembering. Because we don't choose to go into oblivion. We don't choose to go with the flow. We do our best for it. Memories about friend A: I was lucky to have the college entrance examination in the summer of 2019. There was no epidemic that summer, and nothing in particular affected the gaokao. However, I had the happiness and tranquility of the new environment, the joy of watching movies with my class, the excitement of watching TV dramas with my roommates in the dormitory, and the luck of seeing rainbows for several times. During that time, I also participated in the long-distance race for the first time in my life. Of course, the most important thing is that I try my best to take the exam every day! About friend B's memory: I should have passed high math three times in high school (all in senior three), but also because of poor mathematics, I lingered at the end of grade one, and lingered at the end of liberal arts class after dividing subjects. But fortunately, in the second semester of senior three, with the help of a god, I finally realized my wish of barely passing math. Although I still failed in the college entrance examination (19 years of national three books, you understand), I was higher than some of my classmates who were stable at more than one hundred at ordinary times, and my total score in the college entrance examination was 70 or 80 points higher than usual. I also experienced despair, self-doubt, and even thought about giving up. I thought of many possibilities, but ultimately I couldn't convince myself to be a person who would do nothing and just go with the flow. Now I am also very grateful to myself at that time, because she let me now do not regret, do not regret. The head teacher in high school once told us: the real nature is not demanding after doing our best, but not doing nothing with both hands. After the college entrance examination, I understand more that "hard work will be rewarded", which is true. About my memories: In my whole high school, the happiest year was the year of senior three, during which I made a lot of friends and had a lot of good memories. In the summer of nineteen, in order to get up early and eat a bowl of fried noodles, we took yogurt as proof. In order not to queue, at noon and best friends to the canteen run dinner; And we in order to the college entrance examination, the evening to write papers to close the dormitory, in the morning holding a thick knowledge summary feeling the classroom students slowly increase the bustling.
There is always a long way from excellence.
Your study is general, took an examination of this school now, the result is not good, do not get scholarship, do not listen to the teacher in class, on self-study irregular, the exam depends on assault, the word that the classmate helps also can every section take an examination of 70 or 80 very, but with excellent always have very big distance. You come from an ordinary family. Your parents are ordinary employees. Your living expenses in this city are 1200 per month. You have almost no special skills. You can't play guitar or piano, dance or draw. You want to learn photography but can't use picture processing software, and you have no confidence in performing on stage. You are not handsome or beautiful, you are not fat but you have no muscles or curves, you just dress up a little, you don't look outstanding, you can only be neat, when you pass people, they will not pay much attention to you. Your feelings also is general, sometimes meet the desired one, but always can't catch the opportunity, blink of an eye that the man was captured by the others, you begin to sad, to complain, but after a few days to start looking for a new sweetheart, just watching the lover, until you graduate, no development with any of them. In short, there is nothing special about you, just like thousands of other ordinary people around you. You can't be reconciled to not getting the scholarship. When you see other people get the scholarship, you will say that it is totally a surprise result, so you start to study by yourself, but you only persist for a week. You are not reconciled to your father's mediocre, so you criticize and satirize the "official second generation" and "rich second generation" around you, determined to study hard for success, or let their children become "rich second generation", your enthusiasm lasted for a week. You don't want to be good at anything, so you learn to play the guitar, buy roller shoes, borrow books on photography, look in the mirror, smile and say, "You're the best." This false confidence lasted a week. You unwilling no mate, you are determined to turn over a new leaf, you delete the idol drama soap opera in the computer, you lazy on the bed table, throw away all snack bag and then took a bath and grooming yourself, you sprayed water gel on the hair, good let oneself look very spirit, with a successful learning book you decide to go out for a walk, Start a new life. You've been in this state for a week. A week from now, you're still the same person you were a week ago. You browse online forums and come across a sentence like this: "Twenty is the best time of your life. You shouldn't be confined to school or classroom, you should enjoy life." So you believe that at 20 you should "do whatever you want" and have "your last free time." You should "happily go to love" "prime" "swing party"... Now, with the hard-earned money of your parents, with a famous brand bag, wearing famous brand running shoes, riding giant mountain bike, with Canon brand camera and apple brand mobile phone, often go to Starbucks to drink coffee experience petty bourgeois mood... then, Allow me to speculate about your future -- at the end of your senior year, you failed the graduate school entrance exam. You attend campus job fairs in a rush, but you despise many companies because they are not within the system, with narrow platforms and small scale. Until graduation, you still haven't found the job you want. You pack up and go back to your hometown, and your parents tell you to try out for various recruitment exams or local recruitment fairs, but you don't go because you think those jobs are too easy for you and you should be looking for better opportunities. But, when you go to those you value your company to apply for, you have too many competitors, and are not bad, you performed poorly, rightly rejected...... now, you may still in college, maybe and lovers boon conjugal love, stick together every day, go out for dinner, lunch after night lessons will walk together on the playground. When you talk about the future, you always come to the same conclusion: Don't think too much, just live now. If you're not lucky, you break up a few months later and you're miserable, wondering what you did wrong. If you're lucky, you'll be in love until you graduate. In the end, you're too good to go to graduate school or work in each other's city, so you break up with sadness and regret. Reality is harsh, and at this point, you believe it. Now that you're on Twitter, you're fully supportive of those you agree with, and you're motivated to reject those you disagree with. You know what you love and hate. You seem to have a sense of justice. You think young people should be brave enough to speak their minds. You probably never think about the question: Where do your opinions come from? In fact, most of them come from the Internet, and they eat away at your judgment. Now, I just want to ask you one question: what capital do you have at the age of twenty? You are just one insignificant person among millions and millions of people. Without you, the earth will still turn. I bet it's been a long time since you've heard the phrase, "Eat your cake, eat your cake"? Do you know how responsibility is spelled? When you talk about flying, do you forget that gravity exists? Now you, if or indulge their own lazy and naive, wasted time, so, you wasted it. Anyway, I've passed the age of 20, I still have a future, I have to go straight ahead, not with you.
