On that day, I heard a broadcast from a school. The words used to motivate students for this year's college entrance examination were: "Without the college entrance examination, how can you compete with rich second generation?" Can you compete with the rich second generation with the college entrance examination? But with the college entrance examination, you still have that faint chance to compete with the rich second generation. Without the college entrance examination, you won't have any chance at all.
In this self-righteous age of ours: I've been working for a year and a half, almost two years, without saving a penny. I'm a moonlight clan member. My salary, in our small city, is neither high nor low, not as good as others but better than some. I can frequently buy things I like, of course, definitely not luxury goods. Right now, I am content with wearing my beloved Converse shoes, Adidas Originals Stan Smith sneakers, taking pictures of them, and uploading them to my space under an album named Life. I guess I can only do so much because I support myself. Even if I spend all my salary, it's money I earned myself. I didn't ask my family for money, nor did I rely on any man. I behave properly and spend happily. But now I have started saving money. I can't be so reckless when buying things anymore because when I urgently need money, I really can't come up with a single cent. I thought I was living happily, I thought I was quite pretty, and I meticulously dress myself every day. However, in this self-righteous age of ours, it doesn't matter at all.
In this self-righteous age of ours: If we don't have a prominent family background or a good job, even finding a good spouse becomes a problem. As the saying goes, marriage should be between equals. "If beauty could be food, I could feed the whole world." Relying on your looks to marry a wealthy man? That's impossible, at least eighty percent impossible. There's a twenty percent chance of anything being possible, but people still prefer equal social standing. You can't just rely on your beauty and become someone's mistress, which is a mistake because men always have their wives and children first, even if they don't have a beautiful wife! A lover and a wife cannot be compared, nor should they be compared.
In this self-righteous age of ours: When it comes to marriage, many young people start avoiding the topic because people nowadays are too realistic, sometimes to the point where it's unbearable. For example, if I were a worker and someone introduced me to a partner who works in a government office or is a civil servant, considering future issues, even if I were a celestial maiden descended from heaven, he wouldn't marry me. So we pass each other by, and it often leads to lamentations like "Why didn't I meet you earlier?" Isn't that funny? Once, I went on a blind date with a classmate. The man had a good job, considered decent in our small city, with a car and a house. He wasn't young, over thirty. In conversation, he said that he would marry whoever he could get along with well, regardless of conditions. But at the crucial moment, it still didn't work out due to the issue of jobs. This result was expected, right? Therefore, I refuse blind dates. It's meaningless. What's being matched anyway is nothing but conditions.
There are so many such self-righteous notions, no need to say more. This is how the real society is. We can't control it. Day by day, aren't we still enjoying ourselves? (Source: Novel Rankings)
