「2020活著就行」怕是今年最寫實的狀態了。年初的疫情似乎打開了潘多拉魔盒一般,厄運連連,沉重的新聞報導和身邊親友遭遇的不幸,也令人更加感慨,無論是否有來世,人生實短,如果總是活在「不敢」和「猶豫」中,那麼最終留下的只有悔恨和懊惱。畢竟,生命既要有長度,還要有寬度,才能足夠精彩。
曾經看似很遙遠的目標,也都在傻樂呵和傻雞血中一一實現,苦中作樂中不知不覺活成了自己喜歡的樣子,也用自己的雞湯雞血影響了些朋友,有些欣慰,更多感慨。正應了6年前演講比賽的topic——make a difference. 與其說是演講稿,不如說是嘮嗑,這運氣,竟嘮出了校級一等獎和北京市優秀獎,想都沒想過。上一篇真情實感的英文大作文還是被砍掉的博士論文致謝,如今,無盡的SCI撰寫、修改任務佔據了許多時間精力,原來我也曾寫過這麼活潑的小作文吶~每個階段的收穫,都是下一個的閃耀起點,渴望美好的心,仍需要努力奔走在make a difference 的路上,不停歇。
下面就上原文和當年傻姑娘的獲獎心得吧~

Ladies, gentlemen, distinguished guests:
Good morning. The topic of my speech is: Making a difference.
In Kaifu Lee’s autobiography 「Making a World of Difference」,he interpreted what it is to 「make a difference」 as follows: 「Imagine there are two worlds , you should try to make the difference between the world with you / and the one without you / significant. This is the meaning of your life!」
I found his words illuminating. Like most people, I had previously thought that「making a difference」/ meant achieving great success or becoming a charismatic celebrity. After that, I realized that we, the ordinary people, can also make a difference.
In my own case, to make a bodily transformation two years ago, I started doing exercise, especially strengthtraining. According to traditional views, females have nothing to do with strength and muscle. A girl’s being slim is all-important! Therefore, at the beginning my family and friends were skeptical.
But I』ve kept uploading my daily training records on social websites, including these,my contrasting bodily transformation photos.
Although I found it embarrassing at first, I just stuck to it to drive myself forward and to inspire the people around me.
Who says that, for a girl, fitness and elegance cannot coexist?
These are pictures of my trainingn.
Some people may think it is too muscular for a girl. But out of the gym,
I’m still a gentle lady.
Due to my endeavor and transformation, over time, people of all ages and both gendersbegan to consult me about how to do strength training and how to keep to a diet.
A female fitness group was even launched.
Through the efforts of our group members, even more people were encouraged to join us.
Gradually, the public’s views on health and women's aesthetics have been changed. I do believe our society will finally see a boom in the popularity of the pursuit and wider acceptance of female fitness.
Many people still don’t know who I am, but what I』ve done has had a positive effect on the world around me.However, it’s just the start, for we have a long way to go to 「Rock」 the world.
I appeal to all of you presenthere to join us in making a different life!
長這麼大第一次體會了一把學術的趕腳,總結一下,自此翻片兒,實驗狗還是滾去好好學英語好好做實驗吧。
和小夥伴小玥一起總是有著聊不完的話題和用不盡的正能量。
見識了中國音樂學院口譯美女native speaker的牛掰,極致炫酷。
偶然的機會,認識了特別nice特顯年輕的UK美女外教Catherine。雪燕老師的悉心指導,還有男神Nick一對一的絕對細緻的輔導,從speech draft到grammar到pronounciation再到intonation,不認真絕對良心不安。
有著最牽掛我的我們家楚妞,佳麗的關心~ professional的老姐,劉博的傳授經驗,向來關心朕的二胡童鞋,還有強大的後援團,還有我家大領導二領導的財政支持,簡直幸福死了!!!
趁著這個熱乎勁兒還在,好好複習把雅思考了,沒事蹭蹭UK culture & Am culture 和英語專業的oral class,新概念背起,BBC紀錄片看起,BBC廣播聽起,文獻該看還是得看,儘管內心極其不願意!少點shopping多參加參加English Corner和人交流交流告別啞巴英語,多運動運動也就不用總吵吵著剁手了,愛臭美的女人真麻煩!!!
有時候,走出去,生活就會特別精彩!
雖然二領導一再交代:兩耳不聞窗外事,一心只讀聖賢書。可是吧,我覺得,要學習,但是也要生活,不希望老去之後回憶起來,在最美好的年華裡活在只有學術的世界。
學渣的心聲,學術不認識我,我和它也不太熟。
努力生活吧,與其羨慕別人,不如充實自己。

其實,無論是學習、工作、寫作、健身、樂器、烘焙,本願都是簡單美好的,都是為了 「BE BETTER」,但走著走著,或因所求太多,或因信念不定,或因誘惑太多,許多人便放棄了。
能保持純粹 享受其中 奔走在途的人所剩無幾。這時,如果有同伴的鼓勵,這一路可以更加享受 體驗更美好的事情。我感激身邊總有優秀的朋友,我也願成為這樣的人,讓世界多少因我而不同。
