Resurrection to Zenith--Starting from JAVA
FOREWORD
Introduce myself first: I am a fresher with no girlfriends in Central South University, majoring in Electric Information, serving as Vice Grade President. playing the piano is my cup of tea. And going to gym is my cup of coffee, since I am longing to be muscular and protect my pocket money from being plundered frequently.
Next, I should talk about my personalities. Well, it is hard to say. Scrupulous, conscientious, benevolent and innocent are the words others describe me. But I do not consider them special enough as idiosyncrasies. What I reckon myself is that if you have intercourse with me, you can feel my altruistic love, even universal love for all the mankind(oh, that is a little exaggerated, but you can still feel I am amiable.)
Actually, this is my first time writing a blog, since I thought it was a waste time before. However, now it automatically becomes a record of my progressively improved skills and a good way to express my heart.
Text
A few months before, when the sun just freed itself from clouds, I found myself downtown drinking coffee alone, watching a TV program --The Apprentice. The show starts with sixteen business people competing in an elimination-style competition. The champaign will get the chance to be a apprentice of Donald Trump, the chairman and CEO of Trump Organization, which means to be another billionaire.
Desires are such subtle stuffs that they can be aroused in a heart bit. I have never considered myself as a emotional person. But, dramatically, inspired by the competitors' classy dresses, elegant behaviors, and extraordinary experience, I can not refrain from intensely thinking about how my future can compare favorably with their's and whether my past has been down-to-earth enough to make the future glorious.
From the outset, I consider myself as an indomitable child who can prevail all the great odds(childish odds, of course).
•In my primary school, with the suffering of wounds and devastating reprimands from both parents and teachers, I organized a small-sized Defend Forces fighting against a diminutive Mafia, whose “mafiosos” frequently bully younger students.
•In my Junior School, I struggled for academic performances, from a penultimate student to top 20,finally entring a key high school.
•In my Senior School, I bit the bullet to compete in a national English competition. Surprisingly, I entered the final. Dramatically, I got the national first prize and passed the audition of CCTV-Children and became one of the hosts of Awards ceremony of ShanXi province. During the ending of my high school, I got a precious opportunity to be pre-approved by Beijing Foreign Study University. However, after an extremely fierce ideological struggle, I decided to drop the opportunity and prepare for College Entrance Examination to major in engineering within only two months. Now, in retrospect, it was my most heroic and sensible decision.
The enthusiasm for life and the bravery to chase my dreams that I have acquired during my early years makes me feel that I am on my way to reach the “zenith”of the world. But the carefree college life carried me away, making the “Resurrection to Zenith”imperative.
There was a period of my first year college life when I lost my aims, my curiosity and even my faith: I didn’t want to do my daily job whole-heartedly as the vice president of my grade, because I was going to take GRE next year; I did not want to study my math textbook published by CSU, because I found the IVY’s course book--CALCULUS EARLY TRANSCENDENTAL far more attractive and useful... Then I put all those troubles aside, regarding computer games as my cup of tea, chatting with my friends during the day, and enjoying my sweet dreams after the 11 o’clock curfew.
Life just elapsed, until I realized the superficially insurmontable gap between I and those candidates of Apprentice program. Then I saw the time I wasted, and it was totally a tragedy.
Humans are such realistic creatures that only after tragedies came, most of us are willing to stop and ponder the nature of it. Then it causes us to ask "what if". “What if I had been more assiduous.” “What if i had chosen differently.” “What if i had made that mistake.”“And what if the day were my last, then what I truly want.” Those questions suddenly sobered me, retrieving my way, my longing for knowledge and faith for life. Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important thing I’ve ever encountered to help find my exuberance back. Because almost everything——all external entertainment, all pride, all fear of embarrassment, all depression——those things just fall away in the face of death, leaving what is truly indispensable .
I intend to study abroad after graduation from college unless there is something valuable enough as a lifetime career I would pursue making me drop out from university. If the later presumption would not happen, the former one is still a tough destination. However,as William Shakespeare, a British dramatist, said“things would have been waves of ups and downs, and if people can build climax to proceed will be Traveling”. Having fully embraced the belief, I made a relatively detailed plan to make it happen with strong confidence. A part of the plan is to be professional in IT fileds. Hence, with the study of an attractive programming language——JAVA, my Resurrection to Zenith is dawning.
