不管你是学文科的、学理工科的，还是学艺术的，七大姑八大姨似乎总对你的专业有一些奇怪的误解。要如何正确解释自己的专业？这可不是一件易事….. 谈起这个话题，咱们的读者也有许多躺枪的。
Advertising
@Cathy Yi
I majored in advertising. Most relatives have an enlightened face when they first hear the word. “Advertising? Ah… I got it, you make advertisement boards for stores, right?” “Actually, not like that… hmmm… yes, you’re right.”
Animal science and technology
@子
This topic really hits the needle. My major in college is animal science and technology. Everyone including me thinks that “animal” represents cats, dogs or even pandas. However, now I have finished my postgraduate study and I have become a person with pig feeding skills!
五年，可短可长；五年，足以改变一个人的一生。有人用五年时光完成从男孩到男人的蜕变，拥有了自己的家庭和稳定的生活；有人用五年时间摆脱了高考失利的阴影，成功进入理想的大学深造。回首过去的五年，你收获了什么？未来的五年，你又有什么打算？
@肥牛
Five years ago, I moved to a new city and started a new job, full of anxiety and worried about the future, but now I have settled in this city, even falling in love with it, and most importantly I have my second son! I love my life today.
@燕子
It is never too late to learn. Five years ago, I attended a college in my hometown. I was unsatisfied with my college entrance examinations, so I studied hard for my four years of college life. I was determined to take the postgraduate entrance exam when I was a junior student. I succeed in achieving my dream.
Now I am a postgraduate studying in Beijing. I study hard, learn new things and meet different people. I like my life.
高中毕业，许多同学如挣脱牢笼的飞鸟，充斥着兴奋一头扎进大学校园。匆匆四年过去，站在另一个金色的毕业季，回首大学四年，你有最后悔的事吗？
@诗梦
One thing I regret most about my college years is that I didn’t make full use of the time to study. Instead, I wasted a lot of time watching movies and hanging out with classmates. Only when it came to the third year did I realize the importance of studying hard and not idling the time away. Although I managed to end up with my ideal job upon graduation, I still think of myself as inferior to my co-workers in terms of professional abilities, which baffles me at work from time to time. My advice to college students today is don’t kill time, or you will be killed by time.
@Lyn
I regret not spending more time making friends. Because I devoted much of my time to obtaining different certificates, I ignored many meaningful things and people. I should have engaged in more activities, such as taking part in English speech competitions, joining clubs and going to parties. I know I can’t go back in time, but I will use the rest of my life to encounter more people and cherish them.
没主意，没意见，也没什么个性。吃什么都行，去哪里都可以，看什么电影都好。有人觉得你太“老好人”，像个“受气包”，也有人觉得你压根就是“不关心，不在乎，也不想出力”。不受人待见就罢了，连自己也苦恼自己的性格。
@Shall we Sing
I think I can be a bit of a pushover. Sometimes people say that I’m so good-tempered that I forget how to assert myself. Well, how should I respond? I really don’t like conflict or arguments. I enjoy saying “OK, alright” and sacrificing my own opinions if it means peacefulness, or should I say harmony. But in other situations I would rather be myself. I firmly say “no” to things I don’t want. Yesterday, my younger brother asked me to pick a MP3 for him, but I simply refused. It felt like I’d rediscovered myself!
@嗷
Actually, I am a pushover. Most of the time I say “I’m fine, whatever, blah blah” just to make others feel comfortable, but sometimes it annoys my friends. Now I’m wondering if I should be more firm, and state clearly what I do and don’t want.
作为2018年的网络流行词，“杠精”几乎是大多数人厌烦的对象。他们没事儿找茬，唱反调成瘾。通过打压别人的观点，找到自认为的优越感。更加不幸的是，“杠精”就隐藏在你我之间……
@JoeIsCool
I had a friend (yes, not any more) who is a typical gangjing. He always replied “not really” or “you are wrong” no matter what I said, and then expressed the exact same meaning as mine using his own words. He seemed to be pleased in opposing others.
@A durable thread
I think the better way is to suggest them to calm down first and shift the topic immediately. If it’s still difficult to end the dispute, the better choice for us is stay quiet and attempt to listen before leaving. Alternatively, try to say goodbye to argument with excuses because the key is to minimize unwelcoming friction as much as possible.
现代社会节奏紧张，大家白天都被学习工作安排得满满当当。可是相当多的人到了晚上也喜欢熬夜。熬夜的理由总是各不一样。你熬夜又是为了什么呢？
@龙兮
I stay up to do part-time work, because I want to earn some extra money to buy my daughter toys and nice clothes. But I really hate staying up and I won’t do it after she goes to the kindergarten. Until then, I have more spare time to earn money.
@圆圆
I’m busy working all day so I stay up late to do my hobbies such as watching TV shows. Sometimes I must think about the work plan for tomorrow. I really don’t like staying up late because I feel tired when I sleep late. So try to avoid staying up late!
发了一条朋友圈状态，没几个人点赞，你会因此心情低落，感到自己没朋友吗？又或者，你根本不在乎，发状态只是为了记录下属于自己的美好时光呢？社交圈的小透明，是时候谈谈你的想法了。
@小He
I was often left out by others. Whenever it happened, I felt a bit sad and awkward. I just kept smiling and appeared to be listening to them normally, since I didn’t know what else to do. If one of them was my best friend, I would be angry with her. This way she would realize I was being ignored and try to let me in. I found I was really a good listener but not a speaker. I will seldom talk about my thoughts in a big group.
@zero.
Maybe I am that kind of “failure”. I feel fine when nobody cares about me. I do not need to pretend, and I feel secure. Still,I have some friends to share thoughts and go out with. Even though I’m not sociable, I do not think I have missed anything important.
有些话题，不是和谁都能聊的。可惜，并不是所有人都懂这个道理。生活中总是充满了“尬聊”，这种时候你会怎么办呢？
@James
Actually, I keep quiet when I’m trapped in any awkward conversation. You keep acting; I keep watching.
@iamtsx
As a single woman in her 30s, I am always faced with awkward conversations about finding a husband or having kids. The only way I can tackle them is to keep smiling.
亲情、友情、爱情…… 这些我们生命中最珍贵的感情，将我们和爱的人紧紧捆绑在一起。但心灵上的近距离，会成为我们无话不谈的理由吗？
@ 英语茶客
In my view, full disclosure is necessary. As a matter of fact, whenever I come across some work problems, I will turn to my best friends for advice, because trouble shared is trouble reduced. Whenever I encounter daily life issues, I will ask my parents or trusted seniors for strategies. As for my wife, I keep no secrets from her, and disclose everything to her, including my unrequited love 36 years ago. I believe mutual trust is the only glue that keeps us together. Of course, we should first know our friends, parents or partner will not expose our secrets.
@ 曹腾飞
I think it’s not truly necessary to use full disclosure with our partners, nor to our close friends parents or spouse. It’s an instinct to someone who is prone to share our secrets to have an exciting conversation with others. When they refer to some sensitive topics, such as former relationship or dating experience, it will induce numerous questions and suspicion.

新裤子乐队有一首歌，名字叫《没有理想的人不伤心》。你是为追求理想而伤心的人，还是为了快乐决定随性生活的人？梦想或者理想，就像灯塔一样永远指引着我们。无论实现与否，那追寻路上的风景都会成为最美的回忆。
@ jun_su
Though I come back home exhaustedly after work around 7 pm and I have to cook myself and do exercise to lose weight. I force myself to take courses online everyday so that I don’t lag behind. Though tired, I feel full.
@和平鸽
As we grow older, we gradually realize that we are not alive all the time, but just the flashing moment that we feel beatific and delighted. And all of these moments constitute our memory and it is our memory that makes us happy and because of our memory we feel life become colorful and warm. Pursuing our dreams is a part of our flashing moment. The process we chase what we love is hedonistic. But dream is an extravagance that only few can pursue consistently due to the struggles of life. Not everyone can follow their heart.
