At around 9:40 that night, my uncle and I got off the high-speed train at Tianjin West Station, took a taxi for more than 200 yuan to the university, and stayed in a nearby hotel. The next day, I got up early, ate the tea eggs cooked by my grandmother and the breakfast bought downstairs, and then went to the university to report, and finally saw the university on the cover of the admission notice. According to the notice posted at the school gate, I found the counselor in charge of the Department of Forensic Medicine, completed the admission procedures, and went to the university dormitory building. My uncle and I simply cleaned up the dormitory, organized our luggage, and walked around the school. It was a sunny day, and the air was filled with a salty but soft smell. After walking around the campus, I still felt a little lost, because the area of this university felt smaller than that of a high school, and there were only a few dormitory buildings and teaching buildings in total. Walking on the road, I could see damaged floor tiles from time to time, which shows the level of daily property maintenance in the school. On the way to the hotel, my uncle and I talked a lot. I vaguely remember that the important topic was that there are three major events in a person's life that change their destiny. The first is the college entrance examination, the second is marriage, and the third is career. Obviously, my first major event did not go very smoothly. At noon, we had lunch together downstairs. After eating, my uncle packed his luggage and prepared to return to Hangzhou. Before leaving, he gave me 1,000 yuan in cash and told me to work hard, take good care of myself outside, and not to worry about things at home.
After seeing my uncle off, I returned to the dormitory. A new roommate had come to the dormitory. My uncle and aunt were busy cleaning up. The authentic smell of Tianjin echoed in my ears. Before leaving, my uncle and aunt told my roommate to take good care of himself. I guess all parents in the world have the same heart. My roommate's name is Zhang Qiang. It didn't take long for us to get in touch. We went to the cafeteria for dinner together in the evening. We ordered a plate of fried tomato and eggs and a meat dish. I didn't expect the fried tomato and eggs to be sweet, which was not very tasty. After eating, I returned to the dormitory and lay on the bed thinking about life. I couldn't help but think of my grandmother's face in my mind, and tears welled up in my eyes from time to time. From childhood to adulthood, I have the deepest feelings for my grandmother. Every time I return home, I can eat the delicious food made by my grandmother. In short, I feel very warm when I am with my grandmother. Leaving my hometown, it was the first time I went to study in another province. I felt lonely inside. I was reluctant to make long-distance calls. I only reported good news and not bad news. It was not like now when we can video chat anytime and anywhere. I remember that I used a Nokia e64 mobile phone at that time, which could log in to the web version of QQ. I usually browsed the text version of NBA commentary as a form of entertainment. At that time, smart phones were just beginning to become popular. iPhone 4 was the representative. Some people even sold their kidneys to buy it. Now I think about whether those who sold their kidneys would cry to death. But after all, iPhone 4 was really popular at that time. It had an electronic screen, could play games, watch movies, and even play Landlord. It was such a new thing. I wanted to have such a mobile phone. There is no doubt that it is definitely a magic tool for picking up girls!
The time when I first started college was really wonderful. It was not as stressful as in high school. I played games all night and skipped classes and slept in during the day. It was also very enjoyable. The six people in the dormitory slept together. Even if I was caught by the counselor, at least I had a companion. Because of the freshness of college, I signed up for several clubs, including the magic club, the taekwondo club, and the external relations club. The main purpose of joining these groups was to enrich my college life, and secondly, I wanted to have a vigorous love. But fate is so teasing. I didn’t find a partner in college, but was robbed once. Not only was my money robbed, but I was also beaten and almost lost my life. Thinking about how lucky I was at that time, I called the police that night and spent the only 200 yuan in my pocket for forensic identification. I went to the hospital to suture the wound and bandage the gauze. Later, I had to rest in the dormitory for nearly one and a half months, wasting more than half of my wonderful time on campus.
Life is so unpredictable sometimes, you never know what will happen next. Less than two weeks after I recovered from my injury, I left the place where I had worked so hard for so many years and embarked on another path in life. From then on, the gears of fate began to turn.
