In the last few months of my senior year, I worked as a part-time clerk in the supermarket of the small lattice shop. There are all kinds of tropical ornamental fish, hydroponic potted plants, and some small pets, such as hamsters, turtles, Dutch pigs and so on. At that time, I thought these creatures were fun and wanted to experience the daily life of migrant workers, so I readily agreed.
The working hours are from Sunday afternoon 1: 00 to 9: 00 pm, which is quite long, but I never found these eight hours difficult at that time or now. I only remember that the supermarket closed at nine o'clock, went out to catch my breath, and felt empty. I went straight to the street shop, had a bowl of noodles or pork intestines powder, slurped it down, and even drank the soup. What a satisfaction! Walking back to the dormitory again, I can't say how excited I am!
Now I want to say to people when I see flowers: "Water should be poured on all sides and thoroughly at one time; Leave a hole at the bottom of the basin to let the flowers breathe; Flowers and fish grow faster together ... peacock fish often appear petite, thin, with a big tail, one red and one black, and appear in pairs. I often think of a kind of fish called "scavenger", which is always attached to the wall of the fish tank, motionless, abstinent and light-hearted ... I often remember the difficult time of catching hamsters with my eyes closed ... I also think of the manager, the young man who is several years older than me, who often appears in the store like the wind, and it seems that every nerve is tireless. No extensive reading, no knowledge, but this shopkeeper is as interesting as the little creatures in his shop! Looking at the world from his eyes, everything is simple, pure and beautiful ...
Doing nothing, looking up at the sky, squinting, or sitting quietly, this experience will always come into view from time to time. Once a little bit of it appears, a series of related things will shake out of control. The more you think about it, the better. They have become frequent visitors in my memory. I often ask myself: What should I remember without this idle experience? How pale and boring my memory should be! Seeing flowers, birds, fish and insects on weekdays won't have so many interesting ideas, will it?
Therefore, I often say to myself: get free, do some business, get some leisure, maybe they are the most vivid part of my future memory!
