It is a tradition in China that everything worthy of celebration and commemoration, especially the year when every Friday meets every ten, should be grand. It has been thirty years since we graduated.
Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi. In the long river of history, 30 years is only a moment. On the journey of life, thirty years is so long. Life is less than 100 years. How many 30 years can a person have in his life?
In the past 30 years, students have parted ways and traveled here and there. Even if most of them are still in Taiyuan, they don't contact and rarely meet. But I believe that everyone cares about each other. Because we all started from the same place. Like blood, like family.
How to get together for this party, or not? Thought about it for a long time. Thanks to the trust and support of the students, the party was launched and promoted. I also want to thank several students who came back to attend this party.
Our class is Taiyuan No.3 Middle School 103. 1985- 1988, it was a special era in which the old and the new were intertwined.
It was an era of material scarcity.
In the process of preparing for the party, the collection of information is the highlight. Thanks to the old photos collected by the students, we have some vague memories of high school life. At school, we also recorded images on film. Color film just appeared, and Kodak or Fuji film was a luxury at that time. A stupid camera, a domestic Le Kai 135 film, can only take 36 shots. Every shot is carefully calculated. The photos collected at present have been blurred after years of tempering. The limited picture materials are even more precious, recording our best years. Now all kinds of recording means and communication means are changing with each passing day. Taking pictures is not uncommon. The storage capacity of computer mobile phone network disk can be said to be infinite, but it is often found after preservation. At that time, the materials were simple and the students' clothes were simple. In many photos, I appeared in a military jacket or a "soldier's uniform" with two pockets. At that time, my ideal was to buy a "four-pocket" military uniform.
It was a spiritual age.
In the era of ideological enlightenment in 1980s, we began to pay attention to Li Zehou, Kant, Nietzsche and Li Ao after reading the series Towards the Future, and read The Ugly China People to discuss the "bad habits" of China people. The 1980s was the golden age of literature. Under the influence of "obscure poetry" and "root-seeking literature" and the ethos of the times, many students began to create literature, write poems and essays, and some wrote novels and plays. 1987 Teacher Lv Shunmin will graduate from the Chinese Department of Shanxi Normal University and practice in our class. Although the time is not long, it has deeply influenced us and established a deep friendship with many students. Now he is the editor-in-chief of Shanxi Literature. We set up a literary society, created our own works, carved our own mimeographed copies, and started our own "underground" small publication. The school's "Nova Literature Society" is the name of the club that Wang Tong asked Mr. Hu Zheng to inscribe. The publication "Nova" is published, created and edited by students in our class. /kloc-0 In the spring of 988, the film Red Sorghum won the Golden Bear Award. At that time, the mainland had not released it. Feng Jing gave me a new internal ticket and missed the evening self-study in the provincial film company. The "Four-H Cultural Festival" organized by us (head, hands, heart, and one I can't remember clearly), famous lectures and interviews, and bonfire parties were the first time in the atmosphere of high school at that time.
It was an inspiring time.
18 years old is an ideal age. The 1980s left us with passion, courage and dreams. When the Literature Society interviewed the writers, Mr. Jiang signed everyone's notebooks and remembered to sign "Pursuit is happiness" for me. I can't find the notebook now, and the inscription has been in my mind for more than 30 years.
Youth is gone, so is youth. Although we are talking and laughing as before, time will eventually bring changes to everyone. We are approaching the age of destiny. There are old people to take care of, children to accompany, careers to work hard, and personal health to take care of.
The initial heart will last forever, and the strength will last forever. We were lucky enough to meet in the best years. In the best times, the spiritual nourishment we draw from our times, our schools, our classes, our teachers and our classmates is enough to nourish our lives.
Finally, to borrow an advertising word-
Because of the initial heart, it is the same.
Because I don't forget, I am persistent!
