I remember that when I was a sophomore, math and physics were a little difficult, so my mid-term exam results were not ideal. I ran to tell the class teacher that I wanted to study art and be an art student. I was quite interested in painting in those years. But the class teacher refused, and I didn't insist on it myself, so I continued to attend classes step by step. To sum up, I was sixteen or seventeen at that time, and I didn't know what the future was like, what the plan was, what major to choose after the college entrance examination, and what to do in the future.
After the college entrance examination, my grades were barely acceptable. I entered three schools (I changed two when I graduated) and chose environmental engineering as my major. But I'm not interested in physical chemistry, and then I have to draw engineering drawings and so on. I had a lot of resistance in my heart and didn't study hard. I thought I would definitely not engage in related industries after graduation. I'm really naive. After four years in college, I didn't know what planning was, so I attended classes every day, reviewed and prepared for the exam, and graduated under the guidance of the thesis teacher. After graduation, I was at a loss. I have no idea what job to look for. I don't want to choose the wrong major. I just don't want to go, so I don't like it. There is no future. I found a job in the media and learned to do it from the beginning of operation.
Then my cousin, who is not good at junior high school culture, chose to be an art student and learn painting. Her parents, that is, my aunt and uncle, also support her. So after graduating from junior high school, my cousin went to a high school with good painting, and was admitted to the fine arts major of normal university in the college entrance examination. Painting has really become her interest, and she has been learning painting for four years in college. In this way, when she graduated, she was directly recommended as a graduate student in our school. After graduation, she has several employment directions, which are being realized one by one.
I envy her and can do what I like. On the other hand, in universities and even middle schools, we should learn how to plan slowly, instead of just knowing the "four books and five classics" in schools.
Maybe people will think, yes, you are a hardworking person. How can you blame the school for not planning for you? So knowing that you didn't work hard enough in the past, don't fantasize that everything will start all over again and nothing will change. Now that I'm awake, it's not too late to start planning. The most important thing is not to muddle along step by step every day. You won't find anything for a year or two. After five years and ten years, you will find that your classmates have already made great strides and are not in the same circle with you.
