Chapter 3 Roommates
Freshmen at Tenkyo University spend one year studying advanced basic courses, regardless of major, but on the whole, they are divided into three categories: humanities and social sciences, economics and management, and science and engineering. In the sophomore year, students can choose their favorite major under the three categories of entries, and if they have the ability, they can also change majors across categories again by passing the exam.
The advantage of this is to unify the cultivation of the basic literacy of college freshmen, use one year to let students get used to the transition from high school to university, and at the same time be able to choose the major they really like in the future, so as to avoid the consequences of blindly choosing a major because of their parents' single-handedness or following the trend.
Interest is the best teacher, and this saying is especially important in college.
Needless to say, Qin Ran still chose economic management, as well as Feng Liang, Shi Zhengxiong in science and engineering, and finally Hu Kexuan in humanities and social sciences. Xiao Jianing is an art specialty, and she pays more attention to the literacy of humanities, so she is also a humanities and social sciences class.
The same starting point and each going to a different evolutionary path is an inevitable requirement of the division of labor in modern society.
Getting off the bus in turn, the new students saw the quaint red school gate with glazed flying tiles, and two 3.6-meter-high stone lions at the entrance, and the four big characters of "Tianjing University" in the middle of the school gate shone in the sunlight.
From this moment on, after crossing the school gate, everyone will fade away from the aura shrouded in summer and become an ordinary freshman again.
Returning to his alma mater, Qin Ran's heart was surging, and he didn't know how many times these familiar scenes had appeared in his dreams.
Finally, it's home again!
After completing the enrollment procedures, I received the freshman guidebook and campus card. Each person can find an assigned dormitory to live in according to their student number.
Since there is no major, the entire freshman is randomly formed into a class of 60 students under three categories. Groups are then formed by dormitory. That is to say, the other 3 people in the same dormitory as Qin Ran are his current freshman classmates.
waved goodbye to Shi Zhengxiong and others. Qin Ran found the dormitory building where he was located. Check in at the dormitory staff downstairs and receive a dormitory key after registering your identity.
In room 302, Qin Ran saw his name and student number on the form posted at the door, so he knocked on the door twice and strode in.
The first thing that catches your eye is a middle-aged couple, who are climbing to the bed on the left hand side to make up the sheets, and below is a boy in short sleeves reading a book; The second is that there is a boy with long hair in front of the computer desk on the right-hand side who is assembling a computer; Farther away, the sound of water could be heard on the balcony, and a shirtless sturdy boy could be seen doing laundry.
The whole dormitory has a rectangular structure, and there is a private bathroom on the left hand side of the entrance. Inside, there are two dormitory beds symmetrically placed on the left and right, with wardrobes, bookshelves, computer desks at the bottom, beds on top, and washstands half-hung in the corner of the outermost balcony.
"Hello everyone, my name is Qin Ran, and I am also a classmate in dormitory 302."
Seeing that everyone was attracted by his knock, Qin Ran introduced himself with a smile.
"Hello, classmate Qin."
First of all, the middle-aged man on the bed responded with a smile, and his wife also nodded in acknowledgement.
Immediately after that, the long-haired boy raised his hand and continued to work on his computer, and the boy who was reading the book put down the book and came over to help with the luggage. The sturdy boy who was washing clothes on the balcony took the initiative to turn his head and wave his hand to welcome him when he heard the movement.
It seems that Qin Ran came to this dormitory the latest.
Declining the kindness of the boy who came to help with the luggage, Qin Ran came to his bed and began to pack his luggage. While packing his luggage and chatting, Qin Ran soon knew that the boy who was reading the book was called Tian Mingyuan, a native of Tianjing. It was his parents who were helping him make his bed. The boy with long hair and a computer is called Yu Tao, who is also from Tianjing, and he is the first person to go to the dormitory. The boy who did the laundry was from out of town like himself. He is a native of Jinxi Province and is named Dong Jiaqi.
No surprises. They will be their roommates and classmates for the coming year. Those who can enter Tenkyo University are all the best in their original school. Therefore, Qin Ran did not despise everyone.
Fortunately, before getting off the train, Qin Ran asked everyone to have lunch first, and by the way, the food they brought was wiped out and the weight was reduced, otherwise they would be hungry and croaking now.
By the time Qin Ran finished packing his luggage, it was almost half past three o'clock in the afternoon.
"The person who came is a guest, you are all Mingyuan's classmates, we are elders, it is better to go out together and invite you to have a light meal."
Tian Mingyuan's father opened his mouth and invited.
In order to get closer to their son's classmates, the Tian family and his wife had long planned to invite the whole dormitory to dinner, otherwise they would not have waited until Qin Ran finished cleaning up.
"This ......"
Looking at the game screen on his computer screen, Yu Tao hesitated, he didn't want to take his hand off the keyboard.
"You don't have to break the bank, the food in the canteen is very good."
Dong Jiaqi opened his mouth and politely refused, he didn't want to owe favors.
"Let's go, it's rare for uncles and aunts to speak. What's more, someone pays for our dorm party, and it's a big deal that the three of us take turns to come back in the future. Eating people with short mouths, lest uncles and aunts worry that we will join forces to bully Tian Mingyuan. ”
Seeing the embarrassment on the faces of the Tian family, Qin Ran took the initiative to come out to help resolve it, even if the Tian family didn't invite him to dinner, he originally planned to call everyone to have a meal together.
"Yes, Qin Ran is right, we still need everyone to take care of Mingyuan in the future. This meal is a thank you gift for our family. ”
Qin Ran spoke, Dong Jiaqi nodded along the steps in agreement, and seeing this, Yu Tao had no choice but to turn off the computer and go out to eat together. Before leaving, Qin Ran deliberately carried a small schoolbag on his back and took out some things from the duffel bag and put them in.
The situation took a turn for the worse, and the roommates all gave face, and Tian Mingyuan felt very happy.
The 302 dormitory collective is a small step forward.
Compared to high school, where people are accustomed to classes as the basic unit, universities are more dormitories, because of the curriculum, they may only have a few classes a day, and then everyone stays in the dormitory for the rest of the time. Over time, the organization of everyone's activities is mainly in the dormitory, where people in the same dormitory eat, go to school, and play together, except for feeling the presence of classmates in a few classes every day, there is almost no private communication the rest of the time.
If the class has strong organizational skills and good cohesion, and can often afford to organize activities, then the relationship between students will be good; On the contrary, if the participation in class activities is not high, the names of classmates may not be recognized by the end of the four years of college, and some classmates may not even have a word.
Freshmen who have been accustomed to being carefully managed by teachers for more than ten years often have a period of confusion when they enter the university for a period of time. Because when I was young, my goal was to go to college and get into a good university. Now I have finally achieved my goal and come to university. But university management is extensive, and no one tells them what they want to do, especially under the dual influence of gaining a certain amount of personal and financial freedom, many things come one after another, and freshmen need to learn to explore and decide on their own.
After this adaptation period, the freshmen officially entered the role of college students, grew up rapidly, and began to actively manage many things and plan the direction of their lives.
Tian Mingyuan's father drove a small car, and originally planned to drive to a nearby restaurant for dinner, but now six people can't sit in a car. Fortunately, at this time, it was Qin Ran who stood up again, and he led everyone to a restaurant where teachers usually have dinner in the school.
This surprised everyone, after all, Qin Ran was a freshman they had just come to report. Qin Ran's explanation was that he had done a raider before he came, and asked the senior brothers who were studying at Tianjing University for some information on their lives.
Although there was still restraint, everyone at the dinner table still strengthened their feelings in laughter, and even Yu Tao made a joke or two. During the conversation, everyone also introduced each other's family backgrounds. Tian Mingyuan's father works in the Tianjing Municipal Government Office, although he did not elaborate on the unit, but he can drive out on the bus, and his official position should be not small. Yu Tao's family is in business, and it is said to be related to computers. Dong Jiaqi only said that his parents both worked in the same factory. As for Qin Ran, he only slightly revealed that his family was in the construction business, and did not say the specific situation of his parents.
Since the school officially started the day after tomorrow, Tian Mingyuan followed his parents home for a day. Yu Tao hurried back to play on the computer, Dong Jiaqi planned to find his fellow countrymen, and Qin Ran said that he wanted to visit the campus, so everyone dispersed.
After everyone left, Qin Ran did not stay on campus, but walked out of the campus quickly, as if he had another plan. (To be continued......)
