Almost on the court

Watching this The Devil Wears Prada one night near the end of the freshman year, my mind was full of thoughts. The university life in London is too different from what I expected. There is no grass here for you to lie down and spend an afternoon, and there is no teacher who knows how to enjoy life to accompany you to drink and chat with Plato-some are just fast-paced, Extremely practical courses, and the goal that everyone around me is striving for: the workplace.

Like countless outstanding young people from all over the world, the protagonist Andie in the film, after graduating from university, went to a metropolis to look for work and life, and also to find opportunities to realize our ideals. The ideal is that those of us have always only contacted the world from the Internet of books and magazines. People, things that are nostalgic for. Andie is already lucky: there is a boyfriend who pursues his ideals like her, a group of close friends who share the same interests, and he also got a “job that thousands of girls dream of”: working as an assistant to Miranda, the editor-in-chief of a fashion magazine.

But the beginning of this job is also the beginning of the disappearance of innocent ideals. No matter how outstanding the study history and grades are, it will not change the destiny of a person at the bottom of the pyramid when he first entered society-you have to get up every morning to buy coffee for your boss, and you have to be on call when she calls you. You have to help her with domestic affairs. You can't directly ask the boss what the boss means when you encounter unclear instructions, and you will never get a thank you after you finish all this, because this is your job. When you reach the boss because the requirements to be reprimanded in tears, the only thing you can do is just wipe away the tears continue to work - because "your seat, within five minutes someone to replace."

In Watching this film, I am actually a bit unsure of my future. Everything is not ready yet, but I find that I am about to enter the society and have to live on my own. In a few months, I will start to fill out one form after another and prepare for round after round of interviews. Strive for internship opportunities in famous banks and law firms. No one cares about your blog or table talk, they only care about your strength and the potential for future profit creation-or, can you bring 4 cups of coffee and a bunch of things the boss instructs into the office on time every morning Ability.

The first job can change almost everything about a person. It allows you to quickly forget the ideals you firmly believed in when you were in college, let you change your dress, and even let you break up with your dreaming boyfriend. Of course, it also allows you to quickly see a real world, where there is intrigue but also gorgeous and colorful, there are harsh and ruthless colleagues but also thunderous big names, entering your social circle. Hidden in the dormitory, I watched all of this, heartbeat but also palpitations, can I really handle all this?

We just entered society only obey, absolute obedience. But behind this obedience, should we still retain some of our own persistence? To obey, without losing direction and purpose, I think is the most difficult thing to do. Andie finally left this rewarding and losing job, and once again fortunately got a job that she really liked. Of course, this is also inseparable from Miranda's unique recommendation-"This is the one who disappoints me the most among all assistants, but if you don't hire him, you are a fool." Ideals and reality can still be interdependent. , If you learn how to blend the two in reality.

Thinking of a phone call my mother called me a few weeks ago, she told me "Stop hiding in the ivory tower." Okay. The world is a big stage. It used to be only for the audience, but now it is almost our turn to perform. Are you ready?
