One night, as usual, I participated in the group life meeting of the college and performed a singing program. Later, when the party started, I found out that he was going to play the guitar. I forgot what song he was singing. After the party, we walked to the school's football field together and sang "Love Must Have Last" in the dark night and under the strings. At that time, my mood was a little complicated. First of all, I really enjoy the feeling of stop and go accompanied by music, it feels like a foot on a note, very free, there is a kind of visceral happiness, all emotions can be expressed in music, But on the other hand, seeing him play so well, and looking back on the past year, all sorts of things were trivial, and it wasn't as easy and comfortable as his.
In the second semester of my sophomore year, we didn't know each other very well. We greeted each other and chatted occasionally, but both sides kept in touch. Once, when I was still dragging my half-tired body, when I returned to the dormitory from the teaching building, he was already waiting for me in the dormitory. His intention was obvious, to find me to form a band. He said he valued my emotional richness and stage experience (actually stage fright at times). The band's name is "Ultrasonic". Later, we took the opportunity of organizing life meetings to perform on stage, singing "Old Boy", "South" by Dada Band, and "Someone Like You" by Adele.
Later, in the third year of junior high, we all started to think about our future. He went to practice, and I took the postgraduate entrance examination while doing practice in school. Occasionally, I will discuss when I go to the playground to sing.
Later, the life of the postgraduate entrance examination was over, the re-examination was also over, and it was time to graduate soon.
During this period of time, when I was thinking about how to spend the three years of my postgraduate life, I felt extremely confused. Although I seem to have a good future, inside, I am very struggling. I'm not ready to say goodbye to my university. I have expectations for the future, but I always feel that the future is at the expense of everything in the present, such as the familiar environment in front of me, the fixed circle of friends, and the lovely classmates who committed second crimes. And those cute or cool girls. In these inconclusive thoughts, I feel lost, I don't want to write a thesis, and I am addicted to games.
And he didn't know where he was going in the future. We met by chance that day. He sang a song about youth at their college's senior farewell party. On the way back to the dormitory, we talked about our ideals.
He said that
his idea of becoming a wandering singer has not changed, but now he knows how to be down-to-earth, first find a job, work steadily for 3 years, save some money, and then carry his guitar to all parts of the country. To start his national tour.
I smiled and I asked, do you think it is realistic?
Then he said, before I went to Beijing, I worked as a singer for a few days in a tunnel of a Beijing subway station. I just found a place and sang with a guitar. If someone saw it and thought it was good, they would give me some money. kind of.
I said, it wasn't like a begging.
It's worse than the beggar, he said, because no one knows what you're singing, no one stops, no one gives you a round of applause or a smile, everyone is too busy to care about others. existence and dreams.
I think I understand him.
The boys and girls in the university, giving you the applause and cheers of the mountains and tsunamis, are just out of goodwill. As long as you go on stage, you sing a song, perform a sketch, and do a dance, no matter how bad it is, the host and the audience will applaud and encourage you.
Later, I asked him where you were going in the future.
He said, maybe he could take the civil service exam or transfer students. The reason he gave was that he didn't want to stay in the countryside. If he was like many people, in order to take care of his parents, in order to inherit the family business, in order to say "the parents are here, not far away" You", then he will never be able to leave the countryside in his life.
I said, yes, you have your own pursuits, you want to live a good life, and you don’t want to be poor and conservative in the countryside. This is not wrong. Many people never know what they want. You are better than them. You must not put down the guitar, we can support ourselves first, then talk about ideals, survive first and then live.
When we were about to disperse, we made an appointment to sing on the playground after our thesis defense, singing all the songs we had sung before.
No why, just because these days are related to youth.
