I think the best state for college students is to be calm, reconcile with themselves and reality, and openly acknowledge the excellence of others; think clearly about the ideal life state, set several goals, find a path to achieve it, focus on it, and stick to it.
Here I start with one of my favorite passages, ***Mian!
When you get old and look back on your life, you will find that when you study abroad, when you decide to start your first career, when you choose a partner and fall in love, and when you get married, they are all great changes in destiny.
It's just that when you stood at a fork in the road and saw thousands of storms, the day you made your decision was quite dull and ordinary in your diary. At that time, you thought it was just an ordinary day in your life.
But a huge change has already occurred.
The earth was shaking and the mountains were moving, and I didn't notice it at all. At that time, I just thought it was ordinary.
Isn’t it that life, death, glory and sorrow in the world arise and perish in emptiness and silence?
For college, there are three core themes: 1. Regular work and rest, and maintain a healthy body. No matter how good the body is, it cannot beat a regular work and rest. Porridge in the morning is more delicious than wine at night; 2. Enjoy the time alone, be cautious and independent
Think and cultivate a relatively independent personality; 3. Study hard and develop other hobbies in addition to your major, such as writing, expressing, bragging, making money, etc.!
I think the biggest achievement of my four years as an undergraduate is that I found my current wife. This is a person who will accompany me throughout my life and make me happy. She is far more important than getting scholarships, making money, taking postgraduate entrance examinations, traveling, etc.!
The following are my feelings from my 7 years of undergraduate and master's degree. I have experienced the process of double non-graduate studies and 985 master's degree. Many of my feelings will be deeper!
1. About learning: As for learning, we just let nature take its course. We go to class when we should, do internships when we should, and take postgraduate entrance examinations when we should.
If you encounter content that you don't know, just ask your classmates and teachers. If it doesn't work, go to Bilibili, MOOC or even Zhihu to ask. Just look at national quality courses.
In fact, it's okay to skip an unimportant class once in a while and cover it up. It's not a big problem if you go out of your way occasionally, but if you are caught skipping class, you will think it's a bachelor.
In addition to the courses arranged by the school, you can also take useful and necessary certificates such as CET-4 and CET-6, computer level II, office skills, driver's license, etc.; and by the way, you can also learn writing, PS, and video.
Editing, time management, independence, expression, etc., learning these things will benefit you throughout your life.
Nowadays in universities, in some schools, it seems that skipping classes and not studying is a kind of political correctness, while serious study seems to be a sneaky thing.
In fact, this is not the case. If you have nothing to do, go to the school you once dreamed of and feel the atmosphere of 985 and 211. You will find that the better the school, the stronger the learning atmosphere.
In college, scores, grade points, competitions, papers, CET-4 and CET-6, etc. are actually very important and specific reference items. You must pay attention to them. These are very important for employment or postgraduate entrance examinations.
But in fact, these are very simple. Just let nature take its course and prepare calmly. Being down-to-earth and preparing carefully is the fastest shortcut. Such big shit will not rise to the level of self-discipline. And I have always believed that self-discipline means something.
Self-abuse, normal people have nothing to do but exercise self-discipline every day. Go read the diaries of Mr. Ji Xianlin and Hu Shizhi, and you will find that playing cards and looking at beautiful women are the main themes of college life. Why should young people in their senior year live like an ascetic!
When I was in college, my dream schools included Southeast University and Nanjing University, so I took advantage of my travels to visit these two schools. When I came back, I found that I was very motivated.
Fortunately, I was admitted to Southeast University during the subsequent postgraduate entrance examination, which made up for my previous regrets.
Why didn’t I take the postgraduate entrance examination at NTU? It’s because NTU doesn’t offer our major.
I think the most correct decision I made in the past 20 years was to take the postgraduate entrance examination in Shuangfei and go to the 985 graduate school. This was a qualitative improvement in my life in a sense, but I am also grateful for my four years of undergraduate life because
It’s wonderful, and it has shaped my outlook on life and most of my cognition!
I am from Shuangfei and have a master's degree of 985. I can very directly feel the difference between Shuangfei and 985, undergraduate and master's degree. Therefore, important issues such as whether to take the postgraduate entrance examination, whether to take the public examination, whether to go abroad, etc. must be considered in advance.
What you have to think about now is: think about whether to take the postgraduate entrance examination as an important part of your subsequent college and study life, just like love, club activities, social practice, making money, etc.
Taking the postgraduate entrance examination is only a possible part of your college life, but I should be an important part.
