Everyone likes stability; it's just a matter of at what height you want your stability to stop. Confined to the kitchen or heading for mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, choosing to help others succeed or to be oneself.

The two characters "Jiangnan" bring to mind Wei Zhuang's line, "The people by the tavern are like the moon, their white wrists frozen with frost and snow." Born and raised in the southern water towns since childhood, I also have my own feelings for the charm of Jiangnan. The beginning of my working career started in Jiangnan, which is a subjective choice to combine my feelings with my work. Only by remaining true to my original aspiration can I achieve my ultimate goal.

In college, I majored in electrical engineering, but I didn't think it was the most suitable for me. Therefore, when applying for jobs, I tended to choose the administrative direction. Fortunately, what I wanted came true. It's just that everything has to be learned from scratch. However, since I was mentally prepared from the very beginning, there won't be a gap between my expectations and reality. I have a clear understanding in my heart that during the transition from school to society, I might feel rather lonely. I am also prepared to accept and digest this sense of loneliness that I must endure. There will be numerous opportunities in my work that promote my growth. I must seize these opportunities to match my vision with my abilities. Only by constantly striving forward like Forrest Gump can I encounter the strong who are running and have the chance to become a strong person. Reality is not as extreme as I imagined. My colleagues have been taking good care of me since my first day here. All the preconceptions I made in my heart have been shattered. I am also convinced that I will improve more of the abilities I need here than I had imagined.

The daily work routine is the same, but strangely, it doesn't seem dull at all. Every day, one can gain some learning skills or methods to improve work efficiency from it to a greater or lesser extent. Just as Yohji Yamamoto said, "Just be yourself. You are good, and then start imitating the things you love, to imitate, to imitate, to copy, to plagiarize. And eventually, you will find yourself." I also agree that all learning starts with imitation. Right now, we don't need to rush to show off our uniqueness. We should admit our mediocrity and inaction. Once we have a position and capital, we can be ourselves, and others will be willing to recognize that this is you, just you. Sprouting growth seems to be brought by time, yet it also seems to be a choice made by oneself. The road finally took on the colors of the scenery, quietly hanging the moon over this slightly tired journey.

I'm looking forward to encountering challenges that make people frown and pull their hair. That would make me more distinct and genuine. I've also traveled to some places and felt that I've seen a lot of myself, but I still haven't seen the one who is closest to me. Where could she be hiding?

It might be hidden in the next meeting and challenge...
