生活总是不可避免地面对着选择,站在十字路口,向左走还是向右走。
大四悄无声息地到来,意味着公司,学校两点一线生活的来临。于是搭乘长途大巴便成了家常便饭,从偏僻的白云校区来到越秀市区的公司上班,一个半钟的车程,往往搞得疲惫不堪。学业还有工作,如何分配时间?如何才能克服空间上的距离呢?这些都引起了我深深的思考。
一开始的我,自信满满地认为,我还年轻,有精力有时间可以坚持住这样的奔波劳累,可以处理好外贸工作,学习和健身。于是开学伊始也就接下了学校附近健身房的健身教练工作,毕竟健身是我所爱,也是一直坚持下去的习惯,那么忙一点又怎样呢?
外贸,健身,学习,三架马车齐头并进,两份工作加上学业,沉重的压力下,只能牺牲自己的个人时间,把时间表都填满,从早忙到黑。在市区上完外贸的班后就匆匆忙忙地搭车往学校健身房赶,在学校上完课后又得跑去健身房值班,再搭车回到市区的租房。累吗?当然累!
当压力达到临界值,自然会把自己推向崩溃的边缘。如何选择?何去何从?深深地困扰着我。
综合分析了一下,学业(专业英语八级和英语论文)需要花费大量时间,才能够取得证书,并写出论文;健身,一直是我坚持的,而且健身房就在学校附近,我也热爱并愿意为它付出我的时间,精力和一切;外贸实习,经过两个多月的工作,大体已经知道外贸的具体运作,已经了解学到了相关的外贸知识,而且远在市区,舟车劳顿。
时间也就那么多,总要有所取舍。不能让过去的沉没成本影响到我未来的抉择。总要分清轻重缓急。当前应当学业为重,已经积累了一定经验了,那么就做出抉择吧!
于是提前结束了外贸实习,专心留在学校备考英语专八和论文,把学校健身房的工作做好。选择总伴随着痛苦和挣扎,决定之后反倒轻松了。
大学时光也不过匆匆四年,好好珍惜还能在校道散步的美好时光。以往总是忙着做各种各样的工作,大学时光也伴随着校外兼职。在这最后的大学时光里,希望把时间留给自己,去升华提高自己。
十字路口,向左向右,我选择了一条少有人走的道路。哪怕前面有荆棘有风沙,仍自顾向前。
附上最喜欢的Robert Frost的诗The Road Not Taken(未选之路),希望大家喜欢。
The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler,long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth
Then take the other,as just as far
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear
Though as for that,the passing there
Had worn them really about the same
And both that morning equaly lay in leaves no step had trodden back
Oh,I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and aged hence:
two roads diverged in a wood,and I-
I took the one less traveled by
And that has made all the difference
