Saying Good-bye to My University Days

785 views. 2010-6-27 22:32 |Individual Classification:ABOUT LIFE AND LOVE|

 

Long time no see, my dear friends! You see, I will or saying, have graduated from my university since I have got my Certificate of Graduation and Degree Certificate yesterday as well as my Certificate of Double Bachelor Degree. Of course, graduation ceremony has also been held yesterday. That means: I finally finish my 1460 university days!

This is a graduation season; this is also a season full of sadness. Thanks those for teaching me to love others selflessly; thanks those for telling me to forgive those who once hurt you; thanks my confidant for coming to my side or calling me in the first time when I am in depression even in despair; thanks my teachers for bringing knowledge and encouragement to me; thanks my university for providing such a beautiful campus and so many resources for me…; thanks for my “young sister Xu” and “big brother Shi” for with you, my life has become so colorful. I am lucky and happy to be with you in my university days!

My dear friend, wish you who decide to further study continue to enjoy your campus life; wish you who are going to work earn much money; wish you who go abroad can take good care of yourself! Hope you get what you long for and have a brilliant prospect!

A very familiar poem for you!

                       

Saying Good-bye to Cambridge Again

 

  Very quietly I take my leave

  As quietly as I came here;

  Quietly I wave good-bye

  To the rosy clouds in the western sky.

 

  The golden willows by the riverside

  Are young brides in the setting sun;

  Their reflections on the shimmering waves

  Always linger in the depth of my heart.

 

  The floating heart growing in the sludge

  Sways leisurely under the water;

  In the gentle waves of Cambridge

  I would be a water plant!

 

  That pool under the shade of elm trees

  Holds not water but the rainbow from the sky;

  Shattered to pieces among the duck weeds

  Is the sediment of a rainbow-like dream?

 

  To seek a dream?

  Just to pole a boat upstream

  To where the green grass is more verdant;

  Or to have the boat fully loaded with starlight

  And sing aloud in the splendor of starlight.

 

  But I cannot sing aloud

  Quietness is my farewell music;

  Even summer insects keep silence for me

  Silent is Cambridge tonight!

 

  Very quietly I take my leave

  As quietly as I came here;

  Gently I flick my sleeves

  Not even a wisp of cloud will I bring away

 

 

I only find the song in Chinese version, hope you guys can like it. For reference:

Yeah, just as I could not forget my high school life when I first came to my university. The reason we find many things in the school hardly to forget is that it is a long time we adapt to another new environment which is distinct from school. Anyway, we should try to change ourselves in a total new environment.

People are always talking that university days are their most beautiful time in their memory. From now on, same with you, I can only recall it, too.

You were over-flattering me. I am not so mature as I seem to be, actually.
