My name is Li Juan, I am 47 years old and I am a retired nurse. I had a very special experience when I was assigned to work in a health center with two classmates.
I was born in an ordinary family, my parents were farmers, and my life was simple but full of warmth. I have been interested in medical care since I was a child, and I dreamed of becoming a good nurse and helping more people.
In 1994, I graduated with two classmates, Xiaohong and Xiaoming, and was assigned to work in the same health center. All three of us were thrilled and felt that this was an opportunity to start a new life.
Little Red is a lively and cheerful girl who always smiles and is the flower of our class. Xiao Ming is an introverted and quiet boy, a bit of a nerdy personality, but very smart. The three of us have very different personalities and interests, but we are united by a common goal.
In the beginning, all three of us were very committed to our work and had a lot of work to do every day. We helped each other, overcame difficulties at work together, and established a deep friendship.
However, just as we gradually adjusted to our new environment, an unexpected piece of news broke our peace. The director of the health center told us that a nurse needed to be elected as the vice president of the health center to be responsible for the day-to-day management.
"It's a very important position and we need to elect the right person. The dean said solemnly.
All three of us were a little surprised to hear the news. No one could have imagined that we would be faced with such a choice. But soon, we fell back into deep thought. This position means a lot to us and can build a strong foundation for our career.
In the course of the election, all three of us showed our strengths and characteristics. Xiao Hong has won the support of many people with her enthusiasm and liveliness, and Xiao Ming has been appreciated by everyone for his professional knowledge and talent.
I, on the other hand, chose to prove my ability with practical actions. I work hard every day and take responsibility to provide the best possible care to my patients. Although I am not as enthusiastic and cheerful as Xiaohong, nor am I as smart and clever as Xiaoming, I believe that my efforts will be recognized.
After a period of election activities, Xiaohong was finally elected vice president. When she excitedly told us the good news, I saw the joy and pride in her eyes. I'm happy for her because I know she's a very good person and will be up to the job.
Although I was not elected, I was not disappointed. I know I've worked hard and I've given it, and that's enough. I will continue to work hard, constantly improve myself, and make greater contributions to the cause of social health.
This experience has taught me that everyone has their own characteristics and strengths, and as long as you work hard to discover and play them, you will be able to succeed. I want to cherish the friendship with Xiaohong and Xiaoming, move forward hand in hand, and pursue a better life together.
