Yesterday I finally watched the much hyped 我的少女时代. It did live up to the hype - it was funny, hilarious, romantic, tear inducing, close to heart and relatable to almost everyone. While there are many memorable liners, I for one find the opening memorable. I can’t find the exact lines for now but it started with the character reminiscing “小时候的我我常常幻想,長大後的我會是怎樣的.” and then she concluded her current adult state was: ”不怎样.“
对咯,就是不怎样!
为什么会这样?
When I was young, I would imagine my life after graduation would be a big fanfare. That all of my then desired will come true after I graduate from school - that I would be a great graphic designer designing magazine spreads for my favourite celebrities, directing shoots, earn lots of money, have a whirlwind of a romance, be prettier and more confident. Sadly reality isn’t a fairy tale, only 20% of what I wished for is actualised. I have a design job, I earn enough to get by and go on a overseas trip once a year.
无力,无趣,觉得自己不是自己
Gradually, the shine and hope having a bright future waned down while the tolls and increasing responsibilities of adulthood creeps in. Like a helpless leaf being blown by the wind and going wherever the wind carries. But what I do know as an adult is that dreaming doesn’t get you very far but finding the steps that will take you there is what we need to figure out.
对三十后的展望
没有如愿的理想人生是因为不够努力?还是怕失败失望不敢去想。不敢去实现。觉得自己不可能会做到。或者是说完全无法实际得决定自己想要的是什么。就这样飘着飘着看着命运会带自己到什么地方。其实我对三十后的展望也没什么。 只想自己变得更独立,更能干,有自信,乐观一点,有家人,有朋友,喜欢自己多一些。这不会太难吧?
