Are you still happy with your name?

Who hasn't had a "lady bird" time?

In elementary school, there must be a Chinese class, and the teacher will ask everyone to tell their name. It's as if everyone's name is given a special meaning or expectation by their parents, or there is a special story behind that name. But when it was my turn, I didn't seem to be able to say anything at all. The only thing I knew about my name was that my mother told me that my name was given by my grandfather. I was the youngest child in the family, so there were three names. There is a character with nine characters in the middle. When I was a kid, I thought, wow, what's the point of this, it's so indescribable, it's incomparable to other classmates' names. This idea deepened a little bit as I grew up. When I was in junior high school, I was most afraid of people asking my name or the teacher calling my name on the podium to the whole class. I felt very embarrassed at the time, why is this name so ugly. Every time someone asks my name, I will show them my meal card. I am afraid that I will say those three words myself. When I have to say it myself, I will say it carefully and in a low voice, for fear that others will. joke. When I got to high school, the mentality of comparison among my classmates became more serious, at least for me. I met more classmates, heard more nice names, and of course there were one or two classmates with names that were made fun of, but I couldn't laugh at all, I was afraid that my name would be the same in the eyes of others ridiculous. I envy some classmates who have nice names and also have good financial conditions at home. They always wear designer clothes. When I think Li Ning is already a big brand, they have become accustomed to Nike and Adi. I have more and more quarrels with my parents. Even if I have only two days off at home a month, I can still quarrel with my mother. I was secretly angry why my parents opened a small shop instead of working in the unit, why couldn't they give me that kind of affluent life, and I decided to tell myself whether I should live this kind of life again in the future. So I have been waiting for the college entrance examination, thinking that after the college entrance examination, I will be able to change cities and live the life I want.


I got a good grade in the college entrance examination and came to a 211 school in Jiangsu, which is actually not far from my home. It takes three or four hours to get home by high-speed rail. Not that big city, but enough for me. Because there are more and more occasions where I have to introduce myself, and there are more and more occasions where I say my name in person, I gradually accepted my own name. This name, which means that I am the youngest child in the family, is very interesting. When I was asked my name again, I would even say it word by word so that others could hear it clearly, and that indescribable feeling would never be found again. After going to college, I heard more nice names, but also more common names, and more classmates with more common life experiences. I realized that no matter what the name or life experience is, It's all normal and no one will make fun of you for it. The parents of the classmates around me are engaged in more occupations. It turns out that my parents are not the only ones who do not work in the unit. They have been using their own efforts to maintain the life of the family.

    It should be this year's favorite youth movie! Very Francis, very American lover, Ronan's temperament is also very suitable, it is estimated that he will get a bunch of performance awards. Plus Shanghaiman's Lucas and sweet tea are sitting here, it's not good to look at. What if this is the best version of me? Maybe everyone has ever felt that the environment/family is the shackles that fetter one's own wings, but isn't it all learned from the young and energetic left and right?

    When I watch it, I think Miss Bird is too uncute. Even Tiancha's role as a scumbag in the play is more attractive than her. The very similar roles are retrogressive and weaker than the 2006 movie Juno. But to the end of the endurance, I was still very touched, ordinary people with ordinary minds, ordinary talents, poor families and escaping their dreams, wouldn't it be how difficult they were to open a door.
