大学第一课 步入“象牙塔”, 惊喜与冲动过后, 你的心境竟如此地迷茫: “我的大学怎么过?” 请看能够改变你人生的第一堂课——
With the same dream and the same desire, we have come together from every part of the country and from many different areas. Facing innumerable strange faces, I realized that I’ve been a college student, a student who just started in society and a big child who should have known how to take care of himself. The first two days The college had us do our military training for the first two weeks. In fact, I have done military training several times; each time leaves a wonderful memory. Although we just have had two days of the military training till now, it is a time to be real.
It was raining for two days. Sometimes I even felt proud when the rain ran down my cheeks. Maybe it was a sense of achievement that growth has given to me. Because we were wet all over, our company commander let us sing Sailor, a song sung several hundred times before. However, given the special situation, the song seems so good for it and makes us think. Yes, the song delivers a kind of spirit, a state of mind, a kind of courage unafraid of work or getting work. The company commander teaches us again and again. Do they only teach us these simple acts? No! They are teaching us a way of being a man and an attitude of doing things. That’s what we lack. We should seize the uncommon chance and forge ourselves to be a useful man, a firm and persistent man!
The sunshine always comes after the storm and is waiting for us. We are expecting sunshine as well. The sun will shine again after rain.Be browned, but healthier “We have to get up at around 5 o’clock, suffering from not enough sleep. The training is so intense, which gave me a bad appetite. But then, I’m much healthier. You can see from my face…” A younger school sister said with a forced smile. Yeah, her face is browned by the sun, and seems thinner than before. The ten days training is really practical. Though it is the last day of the military training, you cannot see any tiredness from the smiling faces in the training field; they seem ready and happy…”Drill, just this word In the burning sun, we repeated the simple and boring “At ease” and “Attention”; in the cool rain of morning, we practiced March, Double time march and shouted loud and clear slogans; in the blowing sand, we drilled each motion of corps fist time after time… The ten days military training could be described as suffering. Besides, none of our drillmasters still has a good voice now. It’s really uncomfortable to be trained in the Assembly ground, the flaming sun shining on the ground and you couldn’t see any shady or a cool place. Moreover, the purpose of military training is to not only be trained like a soldier, but also to learn to be patient, insistent, share happiness and pain and change to any environment. A freshman said, “What’s military training? Drill, just this word!”Drillmasters also crazy Encouraged by the drillmasters, the students have become crazy to “Sing a song, sing a song!” Thereupon, Qinghai-Tibet Platean (Qingzang Gaoyuan) flew over here, Beautiful Grassland won a burst of applause there. “Zhou Jielun” has just been finished, “Cousin Lin” was heard… All kinds of flavor, both classical and popular at the same time. The ground was full of songs and laughter. As one stops, another starts. It’s really lovely and busy! The drillmasters also became crazy with the students instead of seriousness as usual. They acted in command for a while, then became a guest compere… The students wouldn’t let their drillmaster go at this moment. “Drill master, sing a song! Sing a song!” With that, the drillmaster showed off his skill and won a loud applause. Go by the reviewing stand With full spirit, orderly march, and confident smile on their faces, tens of S-bands went by the reviewing stand, shouting loud and clear slogans. The leaders and teachers of the college sent them an ardent look and they also received a burst of applause. A parent of a freshman from Jiangsu, seeing his child going by with orderly march from the platform, said happily, “I can set my heart at rest and go home tomorrow. It’s the first time our son leaves home, I wasn’t sure that he would change with college life. But from his performance today I know he progressed a lot. The drillmasters paid great effort and the children also did. I’m assured now!”Time to say goodbye Although the students often complained during the training, they didn’t like to say goodbye to each other when it was time to say goodbye to the military training and their beloved drillmasters. “I really don’t want to go! We will truly start our college life tomorrow. That is a happy thing. I must take a photo with my drillmaster to remember the experience.” So the younger school-brothers and school-sisters began looking for the drillmasters.
Military training is such an unforgettable experience; it’s a memory worthy of treasuring for ever.
Going through the military training, we learned to be quiet, to think, to be calm and peaceful. We don’t want to dream of what will come tomorrow. The important thing is to live each day well. So I am looking for a new sun. I believe the future scenery must be beautiful.
同一个梦想,同一片憧憬,让我们走到了一起,五湖四海,天南地北,面对无数个陌生的面孔,我才真正认识到自己已是一名大学生了,一个初涉社会的学子了,一个应该懂得照顾自己的大孩子了。 军训前两天
前两周学校安排我们军训,其实军训我以往参加过好几次了,每一次都会给我留下精彩的回忆。虽然这次军训到目前为止才进行了两天,但这是实实在在的两天军训生活。两天以来一直是阴雨绵绵,有时候感觉雨水从脸颊流下是一种自豪,这也许是成长带给人的一种成就感吧!因为雨水已浸透全身,于是连长让我们唱《水手》,唱了几百遍的歌,在特定的场合、特定的情景唱竟是那么恰到好处,而又耐人寻味。是的,这首歌表达了一种精神,一种心境,一种不怕吃苦、不怕累的勇气。教官一遍遍地教,我们一遍遍地练,他们难道在教我们几个简单的动作么?这分明是在身教一种做人的方法,干事的态度,而这不正是我们一直所缺乏的么?我们要抓住这个机会,这个难得的机会,把自己锻炼成一个有用的人,一个坚毅的人!阳光总在风雨后,阳光在等待我们,我们同样期待着阳光,期待着雨过天晴。晒黑了,也健康了“每天五点来钟就得起床,睡眠不足,训练紧张,胃口不好。不过,我倒是越来越健康了,你看我这脸……”一位小师妹苦笑着说。的确,脸是晒黑了,人也瘦了一圈,这十来天的军训不是玩虚的。不过虽是军训的最后一天,在军训场上的却是一张张丝毫没有倦怠的笑脸,依旧神采飞扬……练,就这一个字在烈日下,重复着简单而枯燥的稍息、立正,在清晨微凉的雨中,齐步走、跑步走,喊着嘹亮的口号,在飞扬的沙土中,反复操练着军体拳的一招一式……,这十来天的军训生活真可谓煎熬。而教官们也几乎没有一个还是好嗓子。在集合场地上训练的滋味的确不好受,毒辣辣的阳光肆虐扫荡,一片阴凉的休息地也没留下。而我们军训的目的就是要从这大学第一课中,不仅要练出个“军人样”,还要学会忍耐,学会坚持,学会同甘共苦,学会适应。“军训是什么?练,就这一个字!”一位新生说道。 教官也“疯狂”在教官的鼓动下,同学们“放肆”地拉起歌来。“来一个!来一个!”“冬瓜皮,西瓜皮,不唱就是耍赖皮!”于是,《青藏高原》从这边拔地而起,那边《美丽的草原》赢得阵阵掌声,“周杰伦”才唱罢,“林妹妹”又登场……各地风味,经典流行,齐聚一堂,歌声、笑声,此起彼伏,好不热闹!而此时教官也一改往日的一脸严肃,和同学们一起“疯狂”起来:一会儿担当指挥,一会儿客串主持……。同学们自然也不放过教官,“教官,来一个!来一个!”教官们大大方方露一手,雷鸣般的掌声又再次回荡在训练场上。 走过检阅台当数十个方队以饱满的精神、整齐的步伐,面带自信的微笑,高喊着嘹亮的口号,从检阅台走过时,看台这边迎接他们的是校领导和老师们殷切的目光和一阵阵热烈的掌声。一位江苏新生的家长,看着自己的孩子在队列中,步伐整齐地走过,欣慰地说:“明天我可以放心的回家了。这是孩子第一次离开我们,真不放心他会不适应大学生活。不过看他今天的表现,确实有很大的进步,教官们付出了很大的心血,孩子也坚持下来了,我放心了!” 依依惜别情虽然在军训过程中,同学们老爱抱怨,但到了要和军训暂别与教官说再见时,大家真还有些依依惜别之情。“真有些不想离开啊!从明天起,我们就要正式开始大学的学习生活了。这的确是一件很快乐的事。我得和教官拍个照,留做纪念!”小师弟、小师妹们开始“抢”起教官来。 军训就是这么一段难以忘怀的经历,一份值得永远珍藏的回忆。走过军训,多了一份沉静,多了一份思索,也多了一份坦然与平和。我们不再遥想明日的辉煌,重要的是过好每一个今天。于是,我不停地追赶新一轮的太阳。我想,未来的风景一定很美。
