Youth is not loose, how can

Youth is not dissolute, what can it be, it still passes in a blink of an eye.

Just watched the first four episodes of Season 1 of Skins, and I feel the same way, remembered this time last year, summer had just started, followed by a summer nightclub, all kinds of alcohol, drunkenness, vomiting after vertigo, struggling to get into a taxi , struggling to get out of the taxi, at three or four o'clock in the morning, sitting alone on the lawn of the downstairs community, feeling that the air at this point is really good, there is nothing to do, only greedy breathing.

The beginning of each episode of "Skins" states that it is "suitable for viewers 18 and over, and involves a lot of foul language, violence, and pornography." Originally, I went for eroticism, but after reading it, there was only a burst of youthful sentimentality, and chaos is chaos. People who live like this every day are actually quite pitiful. I want to pursue something, but in the end I don't actually know what I want to pursue. In a comfortable and high-welfare capitalist society, especially in some Nordic countries, in the morning coffee shop, you can often see a person sitting by the window drinking coffee and reading newspapers all day long. After more than ten years, I will see the same person, the same table, drinking the same coffee, and reading the same newspaper.

Behind emptiness is emptiness, and behind life is toss.

After the youthful hormones are released, it is time to find a table, have a cup of coffee, and read the newspaper for an afternoon.

Compared with young people in China, while working hard, they also dream of becoming rich overnight. There is a luxury house in the suburbs, and they roar from the city in a big drive.
