Volume 136 The Old Man Remains

Everyone said that the dissertation was difficult, and when we first made the thesis proposal, the supervisors thoughtfully prepared some thesis topics for us according to their respective professional research directions, and most of the students chose them directly. However, because the school strictly stipulates the repetition rate, and they are all in the professional fields of their respective tutors, the "one-click generation mode of the Internet" in the past has also become invalid this time, and everyone is "complaining" on the Internet and in the QQ group. Some students were directly attacked by the tutor because the first draft they gave to their tutor was all patchwork stuff.

However, I didn't think it was too difficult to write a graduation thesis, except that the format and word count requirements were higher than the final assignment I had written before, and the more annoying thing was sorting out the literature. It may be because the topic of my dissertation is my own idea, which involves the blind spot of my supervisor's knowledge. So she could only give me some suggestions on the format and ideas of the paper, and there were no changes in the content.

This kind of sword trick made me succeed again. Most of the students' papers need to go through the first, second, and third drafts...... I just revised the format according to the requirements of my supervisor on the basis of the first draft and passed it in a daze, according to my supervisor, from the moment the thesis was passed, I waited carefully for the graduation defense. Therefore, whenever I hear my classmates worry about their papers, a sentence always pops up in my head: Is it difficult?

With my graduation thesis at an end for the time being, all I have left is learning to drive. Every day, I take the train to and from the driving school and the school, as if I am an office worker. On this day, I still squeezed into the train back to school as usual, and stood in the corner closer to the door to get off the bus conveniently, staring blankly at the road map with traffic lights on the opposite door. Every time I get in the car, I will stare closely at the traffic route map above the door, for fear that I have taken a station, and over time, the whole route map will be deeply engraved in my mind. I suddenly remembered my female classmate at the same table who hadn't been in touch for a long time, their new school was actually not far from the driving school, anyway, I didn't have anything else to do except take the driver's license test recently, and now I am about to graduate, or go to her new school.

As the saying goes, as long as you are not embarrassed, then it is others who are embarrassed. Although our relationship has changed, no matter how it changes, we have always been classmates, so it's not too much to go to her school and have a meal together. So I used my phone to edit the text message: "Isn't it? "As soon as I clicked send, I just slipped my phone into my pants pocket. I wasn't expecting any good results, I just had the mindset of giving it a try. After a while, the text message ringtone on my mobile phone rang, I immediately took it out, clicked on the unread text message, and it turned out that 10086 was urging the call fee...... Somewhat disappointed, I tucked my phone into my pants pocket again.

I squeezed out of the train with difficulty, swiped the ticket out of the platform, I picked up my phone again, and found that there was an unread text message, so I quickly checked:

"What's wrong with you?"

After reading this joyful message, I immediately replied:

"Are you at school tomorrow? I'd like to stop by to see your new school. ”

"Okay. When are you coming? I'll treat you to dinner. ”

"I've got to go to the driving school first, it's almost 11 o'clock."

"Okay, you call me then, and I'll pick you up at the station."

"Okay, see you tomorrow~"

"Hmm."

A few short sentences made me feel a lot more energetic, completely free of fatigue, and walked back to the dormitory with cheerful and light steps.

The next day, in order to prevent touching everyone's "gossip sensitive nerves" in the dormitory, I casually said to Lao Zhao as usual, "Do you want to practice", according to the usual answer, it is generally "I won't go, you practice hard" or something, but I didn't expect him to say "let me think about it" on this day. This sudden accident almost bankrupted my plan completely, but fortunately, Lao Zhao's thesis had not been revised yet, so in the end I was asked to go first, and he would go again after he finished correcting his thesis.

Originally, my plan was to practice a car first, but when I arrived at the driving school, I found that there were a lot of people in line, and I was afraid that I would be late, so I went back to the station directly, and then took the rail transit to the direction of the school of female classmates at the same table.

I remember the last time I took the car in this direction, we went to "go on a trip" together, looking at the familiar scenery outside the car window, and the memories of the past kept coming to mind like a picture. I can't believe that so much time has passed, and time is really a surprise thing. If at that time...... If we ...... If the two of us ...... If...... Forget it, there are no ifs, everything is already in the past.

The green light above the door that I had been waiting for for a long time finally came on, and the door slowly opened. At this time, there were not many people in the carriage, and it was also known that it was far from the city. Since I arrived early, I had to wait for her on the platform, and I was surrounded by a few student-looking people, I guess it was her school. If it was someone else, I would have stepped forward to ask for directions, and then went directly to her school, but unfortunately I wasn't, and I would only search for that familiar figure in the same place.

"So early?"

A familiar voice sounded in my ears, and I turned around, and sure enough, it was her. I guess she was also afraid that I would wait too long, so she came to the station to wait for me in advance, but I didn't expect to come earlier.

"Ah, yes." There was a hint of embarrassment in my words.

"Let's go, there are still some roads in my school, let's take a taxi." With that, she beckoned, flagged down a taxi, and warmly beckoned me to get in. I was supposed to sit in the front seat, but she got into the passenger seat first, so I didn't pay for it. It's not a long drive, and it won't take long to get to the school gate, but if you can't, you'll have to walk for a while. The school is surrounded by fields, and according to her, there is a women's prison opposite the school, next to a cemetery, and at first they lived in fear every day. But, having said that, their new school is very worthy of the word "university", it is full of new European buildings, and the castle-like spire makes people feel like "Hogwarts", compared to our school is more like a nursery.

"Didn't you say you would go to driving school?"

"Well, I've been."

"By the way, you haven't finished your driver's license yet? Mine is almost done. ”

"Who's to say it's not, it's been two years since TM took the exam. Where did you get it? ”

"I took the test at home, and I practiced two laps of my dad's car during the winter vacation."

"I knew that I also took the exam at home, and I was about to spend 10,000 yuan before and after."

"So much!" She was a little surprised.

"There's no way, every time I take the exam, I encounter the computer-based test reform, and I get shot back, and I can't help but stuff the money." I said helplessly.

Seeing that I was a little lost, she immediately diverted the topic and said that she was taking me to see her graduation project. She led me to a large glass exhibition hall. There are many various graduation project works on display inside, and it is said that only the best works can be displayed here. Looking at the various whimsical ideas in front of me, I suddenly felt that the content of their major was more interesting and dynamic.

"Come on, mine is here."

I came to her work and looked at her ideas carefully, although I couldn't analyze her ideas, concepts, techniques and aesthetics like a professional tutor, but from the details in the painting, I could see that she really put a lot of energy, and it seemed that she really loved her profession.

For lunch, she took me to a restaurant where she and her classmates usually eat, and the two of us ordered two dishes, but they still couldn't finish it. I constantly praised their school's "high-end atmosphere and grade", and then complained about the various wrongs of her school, and she also praised our school from time to time for being "regular", "famous", and "almost 211", of course, I did not forget to talk about the defects in my school.

"Do you have a partner?" Finally back to the topic, she asked.

"No, it's too late to get a driver's license." I replied without thinking.

"What about that green bow?"

"Alas, it's long gone, and she's changed several of them," I said, with a nonchalant look, "what about you?" ”

"Neither do I."

"Why, a big beauty like you will be chased by no one?" I quickly regretted saying that.

"Yes, yes, but I don't want to talk about it yet." This answer made my heart go on a roller coaster, sometimes higher and sometimes lower. Although I know that it is basically impossible for the two of us, and I have long since lost my thoughts, I don't know why I still feel a pimple in my heart when I hear the news that she is being chased.

After dinner, we continued to walk around the campus for a while, during which we also chatted about our plans for the future. She has a clear plan for her life, and after graduation, she will return to the South and then pursue her major as much as possible. And I'm a little confused, and I have no short-term goals since I failed the graduate school entrance examination. To this, she gave me an angelic smile and said:

"I still think you should do what you like, and I'm sure you'll be able to see your movies in the future!"
