来荷兰一年啦,真的很开心。不仅仅是英语变好了、学到了知识,更重要的是认识了新的人,还花了很多时间打造我自己的人生哲学。新的人带给我的,有新的认知、新的视角,还有更加开阔的人生态度。感谢他们。

11月4日是毕业典礼,是在阿姆斯特丹的一个教堂里举办的,教堂是阿姆斯特丹大学分布在城市里的众多教学楼之一。在典礼前几周,我们这个教学项目的管理委员会就告诉我们,如果我们想的话,可以在毕业典礼上发言。我纠结了蛮久是不是想说一些什么,然后在典礼前两天写日记的时候,突然灵感迸发,想着这一年发生的许多事情,就花了几分钟写了毕业致辞。虽然最后毕业典礼发言时有一些紧张,没有把所有想表达的表达出来,但是我觉得这样一个灵感迸发下的产物,如实的表达了我这一年的感受。虽然有很多很多的细节被隐去,但是我们还有时间,以后慢慢说。

毕业致辞全文:

Recently when I was having interviews, some interviewers asked me: how did you survive the one-year-fully-online study? You couldn’t even meet your classmates in person. To them it seems to be a miserable experience. 

But after thinking for a while, I answered: Actually, it wasn’t that bad. I made friends, I met people from different cultures, I learned new knowledge, and I travelled, though not as much as I could have been able to. But those are exactly what I wanted when I decided to come here, to study in Netherlands. So nothing to complain.

Of course there was something we couldn’t do, but we compensated with something else. And no one knows which one is better.

I believe in the end everyone tried their best to make full use what was available, and we can say: I came here, and I don’t regret it. After all, life is not about NPV, it’s about experience.

I wish everyone could do what you want to do, and live the best of your life. And don’t forget, learn to speak some Dutch! Dank je wel! 谢谢!
