Surveying and mapping is a promising profession

I watched this film three times when I was in high school, and I watched it when my parents were not at home. There are also "American Beauty" and "Broad Eyes Caution" that have been recollected in this way. For me as a high school student, the male protagonist is so perfect and fanciful, especially in the desert, he doesn't speak much, and he keeps a book of "history" with me. In addition, the poem-like plot of the two men surveying and mapping aeolian landforms on a plane in the film directly established my infinite lust for the profession of geographer.

Later, I went to university, majoring in geography, and a group of people went to Shanxi for internships, studying loess landforms and volcanic landforms. The girl who lived in the same room with me brought this Mahayana Introductory, so we usually climbed up the mountain to draw sketches, and in our free time, we listened to her to give me detailed talks about the Six Paths of Reincarnation. The correct knowledge about the eight parts was also my first acquisition. At that time, I thought the geography was really amazing. I had a good life and a British patient. But after the book was over, we also went out to fight pigs with people every night.

Later, I received a love letter sent from Morocco a while ago, and suddenly felt that my life is still very "British Patient". I have never been to Africa, so the impression of Morocco is a luxury hotel, except for the hotel, which is full of wind and sand, and then wash each other's hair in the bathtub with my sweetheart in the hotel. In fact, it is said that someone was listening to Chinese folk music in an empty hotel lobby while writing a love letter to me. It is said that the scene is very surreal.

All in all, this film tells us that surveying and mapping is the best choice for promising romantic and high-favored literary youth who don't want to study liberal arts.

    I didn't understand how love happened. . It's okay as an identity movie. Binos made me see awkwardness.

    For the first time, I felt that love can overshadow morality, but I can't give a reason.
