Chapter 265 Farewell to the fairy tale of childhood
After setting sail, the cruise ship became lively again.
In this era, cruise ships are an extremely new thing, and the nobles who tried this new thing also experienced various benefits.
In this era of underdeveloped roads and imperfect infrastructure, traveling to various places requires either a bumpy carriage or a rare airship.
Although airships are convenient, they have fixed routes and limited loading space and weight, so they are not very comfortable. The emergence of cruise ships has solved the previous problems.
The spacious and well-serviced cruise ship is like a small city, with all facilities inside, luxurious and clean. There are about 1,500 service staff on board, and about 2,400 passengers.
"Wow, I feel like the nobles over there are really enjoying themselves." Alena ran for a while, jumped up, and fell down on the soft bed. Lily on the side opened the door next to the floor-to-ceiling window and came to the balcony.
The large balcony can be placed with two lounge chairs and a small round table. Outside is the blue sea. The moist sea breeze blows in your face, and you can see the white clouds and blue sky in the distance.
The room also has a complete bathroom, toilet, etc., and even a small hall, which can be used to entertain friends, chat and play chess, etc. There are more than 800 suites like this on the cruise ship. Depending on the location and size
It is divided into deluxe version and regular version. There are also 600 suites without balconies and only windows, which are considered economic version.
"Take a bath first, and then meet up with Loren and the others." Alena said to Lily, then she quickly took off her clothes and jumped into the marble bathtub in the bathroom.
The warm water flowed through the pipes, and then fell on the body through the shower head, allowing Alena to experience this comfortable feeling again after being away from the academy for nearly two weeks.
On the other side, Lorraine Hill took Keti into a luxurious suite. Although the room was not very high, the facilities were placed just right and it was not crowded.
After taking a shower, the two of them went to the balcony, lay on the beach chairs, and let the wind blow, and the water droplets on their skin dried, bringing a sense of refreshment and comfort.
Just like that, the two of them took a nap for a while.
After opening his eyes, there was still some time before dinner. Lorraine Hill looked at the sunset gradually setting in the horizon. The red fire clouds were very beautiful under the reflection of the golden sunlight.
I always feel like I can't take any time off. Looking at the scenery in the distance, Lorraine Hill had this thought in his mind.
She suddenly remembered the hysterical young man, and some fragments of her memory slowly surged in her mind.
If you play for a long time, you will feel a sense of guilt in your heart, as if you have let down a lot of things.
It has been a long time since I came to this world, but excluding those years of sleeping, it is estimated that it only lasts 3-4 years in total.
But the habits or concepts brought from the previous life have not completely dissipated.
[Your parents work so hard, why do you have the nerve to have fun and not study hard?]
[Look at you, you can’t do such a small thing well, why don’t you work hard?]
[Your uncle's cousin's child is 3 years old. You don't even have a partner. You still wander around every day and haven't settled down yet.]
[Sorry, we only recruit students from prestigious universities.]
[Sorry, you are not a graduate of a relevant major and have no work experience.]
[The future of our industry is extremely bright. You are welcome to join. As long as you keep working, it will be easy to earn over 10,000 yuan a month.]
[Our company does not advocate working overtime, but everyone usually leaves after 9 o'clock. If you feel you can't adapt, we don't need people who can't work hard.]
[Well, this month has been good. Work hard and I will give you a salary increase in the future.]
[Why resign? I want to go home and take the civil service exam.]
[How? My interview score was average and I failed.]
[So-and-so is getting married, are you going? Forget it, it’s not fun to go to a classmate I haven’t contacted for many years.]
I don’t know since when I stopped crying.
When was the last time I cried? It was probably one summer. My parents locked me at home to study and did not allow me to go to my hometown to play, because it would be very troublesome to others.
On a quiet afternoon, I was alone in the attic. The dazzling summer sunshine shone in the house. Occasionally, the sound of cars was heard in the distance, and the wind blew the curtains and made a slight sound.
I don’t know why my tears started to fill up. I don’t know why I am sad. Is it because I am lonely, because I cannot get what I want, or because I don’t know what the future will look like.
In my young eyes, the future is vague, incomprehensible, and unknown. Therefore, it does not exist for me. I can only use my short life experience of more than ten years to infer and imagine, and imagine that it is
Beautiful and full of hope.
But as I grow older, the unknowability of the future becomes less and less, its possibilities become less and less, and they become narrower. I have no choice but to realize this.
I don’t have as many possibilities as I imagined when I was a child, becoming a scientist, a star, a famous writer or a rich man. I will probably spend most of my life as a low-level employee, staff, waiter, shop assistant, errand boy, doing something of value.
There is such a thing as a small job, and it may take many years to reach a small middle-level job based on qualifications. Compared with the big expectations when I was a child, this gap is difficult to accept and makes people feel painful.
The world is so big that people can hardly imagine it. The Internet connects hundreds of millions of people and shows you the best, best, and hardest-working people and things.
This is our luck and our sorrow. You will find that what you want to do has been done by thousands of people. They did it earlier than you, have more innovative ideas than you, are more talented than you, and are better than you.
effort.
There is no starting line in the race in life. When I started, some people may have been running ahead for nearly ten years. The hopeless gap was simply suffocating.
Every day after get off work, I calculate my income for the day, and then realize that I may not be able to afford the house I want without eating or drinking for the rest of my life. I lie in bed, tossing and turning, not wanting to fall asleep, because I know that when I get up tomorrow morning, I will have to enter that kind of gloom again. In numb work, day after day.
Everything has become fast and anxious. Society has undergone earth-shaking changes. If you are not careful, you may fall behind and be eliminated, and then be caught up by the surging crowd around you.
In such a living environment, childhood dreams have long been like old and broken toys, thrown into the corner. And even if you are immersed in the world of fantasy, you still cannot escape the hardship. After all, the groups of people you have to face every day
Requirements, indicators, unfamiliar faces, listening to those cold or harsh words, completing that endless task, this kind of personal coldness cannot be anesthetized by a few simple words or a few chicken soup stories.
Sometimes even if you stay up all night playing games, the process may seem refreshing, but when you close your phone or computer, a great emptiness will arise in your heart.
Lorraine Hill stared blankly at the sunset in the distance, letting the orange sunset fall into the watery black eyes, recalling the experience after graduating from college in his previous life.
Perhaps it was at that time that he developed such a concept. Although it was an extremely distant thing, Lorraine Hill still slowly recalled it.
As my mother said, how can I be embarrassed to play when others are working hard?
One day, you will say goodbye to the fairy tales of your childhood and enter this complicated and confusing world.
