#Witness of the Times # I don't know if I can count as a witness of the times, although I am a post-80s, but I was born in the earthen cave in the northwest countryside, compared to the post-80s in the city, the times are many years back. Loess is hard and easy to build, and the delicate soil is as smooth as a white face with a gentle stroke of the hand. During the day, he followed his cousin and brother to herd sheep in the moats on the mountain, and at night listened to the elders under the flickering kerosene lamp on the kang to tell the strange and interesting things that happened at that time or earlier. I have never planted land, but I will also sit on a donkey to pull a board to watch the sunset, and I will also follow the elders to pick well water to irrigate the garden. The red sun shines on the loess soil while squatting and enjoying the scenery on the opposite mountain, and at that time, he was a good friend with heaven and earth and people.
Later, I went to school and moved to the town with light bulbs, watched Journey to the West on black-and-white TV, and then had electric fans. There are many fun in bungalow life, neighbors can frequently interact with a rice bowl can visit the door, not limited by high-rise buildings can find partners at any time to play, during the day there is no one to see, at night dinner is not home. "Learn from Lei Feng's good example", "Let's swing the double pulp"... The songs of childhood also linger in your ears. During the summer vacation, you can go to the big ravine of the deserted village to pick apricots, pick fruits, and play with water. At night, you can hide and seek in the moonlight or watch the melon field in the melon shed, and the insects and cicadas are not happy. The happiest thing about the winter vacation is the New Year, new clothes and shoes are delicious, firecrackers are piled up in the fire tower, and watching the Spring Festival Gala celebrate the New Year.
The house rented in the town moved home twice, this time the neighbor's house had a landline phone, at that time I was particularly envious of other people's homes with phones, and the phones written in the graduation book of my classmates were written by the neighbor's aunt.
Later, his parents were laid off from the unit and began to find a way out for themselves. I remember my mother moving stones, carrying a burden to sell haggis, pushing a large freezer to sell ice cream, and my father opening a restaurant, here I want to thank my parents for their hard work. In middle school, I also saw the BB machine used by others, and for the first time, I used a computer to learn the DOS system and the five-pen input method.
The university has changed the fastest in recent years, with the Internet began to use QQ for the first time, with the first Motorola flip phone (and lost at school). At that time, I learned that Internet cafes could stay up all night, watch movies and play games, often play Audition, and later Warcraft. The phone was replaced by a Nokia, and the keyboard shined as soon as the ringtone rang, and you can text every day. Nokia phones were all the rage at the time.
In the year that Taobao appeared, I have been looking for the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China to open a store, which is purely curious about new things, but it has not been opened for various reasons, and now I think it is quite regrettable.
After graduation, I did not return to my hometown but went to the current city to start from scratch, forgot when the mobile phone can start to access the Internet, when WeChat began to have, and then more and more high-tech products appeared innumerable, and then it is the era that you and I see together, the new era of everyone's attention.
Change too fast to see too much or sigh under the 80s: when you are in elementary school, college does not want money; When you go to college, you don't want money in elementary school;
When there is no work, the work is assigned; When you can work, you have to be self-employed; When no money is made, the house is distributed; When you can earn money, you can't afford to buy a house and marry a wife; When you want to have one, you say you want family planning; I can't move, you say you want to let go of the second child. I'm about to retire, and I say I'm going to delay my retirement.
Finally, to sum up: everything caught up and nothing caught up! The future continues...
