An article I particularly like, as a freshman in the senior year, I feel deeply! Thank you teacher for writing this article, which inspired me, and I believe many students will feel it.
Today is September 13, 2020, and the 2017 students are in their senior year.
I always meet 2017 students at the gate of the library, by the boundless lake, on the school road. When they see me, they have smiles on their faces and a touch of sadness in their eyes. They rush over to hug me and have a brief chat with me. A few sentences. After ten encounters, I discovered the problem. For example, Q. The first sentence he said to me was: "I am now in my senior year and I am beginning to be anxious."
"Why?" Q is a popular major. He won a lot of awards during the university. Besides, he has good communication skills, teamwork spirit, copywriting and image processing skills. He can be seen in the crowd at a glance, he belongs to the kind of person with his own light. But when he started school in his senior year, the first thing he said to me was "I'm getting anxious."
"As soon as I heard that a classmate received an internship notice, I felt urgent. As soon as I saw someone writing a resume, I felt scared." Q said frankly to me, perhaps because of the pressure, he returned to school I didn't sleep well, the eye sockets were black and blue, there were a few new pimples on the forehead and chin, and he was unshaven, with a bit of vicissitudes, listless, and very depressed. It's totally out of touch with the energetic and fighting spirit Q in my memory.
"You also write a resume, I believe your resume will not be bad." I dragged him under a lush tree so that we can avoid direct sunlight.
"When I was in my senior year, I realized that I was so average. I was too blind and self-confident before. Yelang was arrogant. Although I was studying a popular major, I felt that I was studying very average, mainly because I didn’t like it that much when I was studying. When I was caught in the epidemic, I started to slack off within a few days of staying at home. Then I thought about going to the civil service exam. As soon as the news came out, I saw the fierce competition, and I retreated. I haven't started to write a resume. , I feel a little bit resistant inside, I feel very confused, I don’t know what place I want to work, I don’t know what place I can go to work, there is no direction. When the night is quiet, I lie in bed and think, is it me? His life is the same as most people in society: graduation, work, marriage, childbirth. I feel so uncomfortable. Teachers and parents have told me that when you are confused, read more books. Many answers are in the book. , But I have been reading books for so many years, and I have become increasingly disoriented." Q expressed his thoughts and state in one breath. I don't know if it was because of the hot weather or he was overly excited, big drops of sweat appeared on his cheeks.
"Senior year, I will feel a little bit anxious about the society I'm about to enter, and I feel panic about the uncertain future. You will feel better if you make a resume, vote it out, and interview a few times." I wiped my forehead. sweat.
"When I saw my resume, I was a little scared. Although I said not to compare, people are unique, but I compare them everywhere in my life, compared with people in the same dormitory, compared with people in the dormitory next door, and compared with familiar people. , And compared with unfamiliar people. Now two people in my dormitory have gone out for internships, but I haven't even made a decent resume. It's not that I don't want to do it, but I feel that the results obtained in college seem to be insufficient Let me find a decent job. I have become evasive to do resumes and to avoid receiving information." When Q said here, his emotions were a little more stable than before, and Xu Ye said it, feeling relaxed.
There are many students who come and go, some who have just entered the sophomore year, and some have just entered the junior year. They are full of longing and hope with curiosity and enthusiasm for the new semester, and stride forward with their backs on their shoulders. go.
When Q talked, I remembered my senior year, the same age, the same confusion, the same anxiety. After so many years, the psychology and state specific to that age and that stage still exist, even though I was already On the road of preparing for the postgraduate exam, but whether you can pass the exam, if you fail the exam, questions such as where to go and what to do will also appear in your mind. The anxiety about the uncertain future is particularly prominent during the senior year.
The psychology of Q in front of me is representative. Among the many seniors, except for those who have a clear plan early in the morning and achieve their goals step by step according to the plan, there are also those whose parents have already made arrangements. Most of the remaining people belong to the Q category. Half of them have already entered the society. It is impossible to ask their parents for money, and it is impossible to continue to stay in school. The senior year is an informative letter. It clearly tells you: From now on, you are a member of society, you must be independent, and you need to bear your own responsibilities. There is no excuse. You can only move forward and integrate into the society. furnace.
More than ten years of student status, more than 20 years of living under the wings of parents, I am used to this status and state, and suddenly someone informs you that all of this is over, you have to be self-reliant, it is a mule or a horse that must be pulled Liliu came out. But I feel guilty because of my lack of confidence. In the talent market, what kind of job I can do, what kind of salary I can get, and whether I can rely on what I have learned to settle down in the fierce social competition? For seniors, they are all question marks with no answers for the time being.
"Before I went out, my roommate was answering a phone call. An Internet company notified him to go for an interview. As soon as I heard this kind of call, I went out immediately. I don't want to stay there. If he passes the interview, we There is really only me left in the dormitory. I will be more anxious, more fearful, and more disturbed.” Q continued.
"In this case, you should take action too. Only when you take action can your anxiety be soothed. You can tailor your resume according to your interests and abilities. Don’t go to the world with a resume. I believe you will receive a call soon. You will pick up your bag, embark on the road of internship, grow rapidly during the internship, find your own position, and summarize your abilities and values. "One of the most effective ways to relieve anxiety is to act in time.
"I don't dare to make a resume. To make a resume is to summarize my university."
"You are not confident? Don't believe you can do it?"
"Well. When I was in my senior year, I suddenly felt that I was average and I was afraid to face this problem."
"Perhaps every newcomer in the workplace feels that he is average. After you really start working, your confidence will come back. You will deal with specific problems in specific scenarios. Of course, you may also find many problems, but you can learn and grow while you work. Get up quickly." I continued to give him confidence and strength, and encouraged him to take the first step.
"Yes, just like when I first enrolled in school, I thought of my brothers and classmates a lot, but later found out that we are almost the same, because I was too unconfident." Q laughed.
"Now go back and do your resume, and send it to me as soon as possible."
"Okay. I will go back to the dormitory now. I am very happy that I met you today. I will tell you my heart. I am more comfortable and less anxious. I will send it to you as soon as I finish it. Don't be annoying me. ."
"it is good."
Q's face has some light, just as I remembered, the back he carried when he first saw me also stood up, and his steps became firm and strong. Xu confided the problem. He was mentally relaxed. My so-called suggestion is to use my mouth to help him build a bridge between himself and himself. When he walks on the bridge, he will see different scenery.
"Teacher, I have written my resume, and I feel pretty good. It seems that my university is still a bit rewarding. You are waiting for my good news." While on the school bus, I received Q's message and his resume.
Today is September 13, 2020. The 2017 senior student Q said to me: "I received an interview call in the morning. I am very happy. I am confident that I will become an intern there. I saw that I met them. The requirements of the unit, and I am bold, eloquent, not stage fright, interview performance should not be bad. Really, as long as the first step is taken, other roads are easy."
"Congratulations in advance."
"Well, thank you teacher."
