Letters from graduate students

時間過的真快，轉眼大學生活已過去兩年，回想到2011年黎叔叔來我家看訪時，摸著我的頭親切地說‘困難是暫時的，我們會幫助你度過難關，你要鼓足勇氣堅持讀書，你和你家的將來是幸福的……

Time flies. I graduated from nursing school last year and am grateful to Care Action Macao for the warmth and support they have shown me. When I was studying at Zhong Wan Primary School, I was fortunate enough to enjoy free meals provided by Care Action Macao. Although the mythical free life disappeared during my middle and high school years, I received financial assistance from them in college, thanks to their support. Together with the frugal lifestyle and hardworking habits that my parents and family have instilled in me, I have now entered the workforce.

在今年六月，賀旭環告別了學生生涯， 有幸考上了國家的三支一扶專案，來到鄉政府工作，加入了這個大家庭，開始了人生的新篇章。

From the first time I was assisted, I became more determined to be a person of value to society in the future. For us mountain children, reading was the only ideal path. As expected, I was admitted to Shanghai Jiao Tong University. During my work-study program, I also earned many awards and grants, which decreased the pressure on my family.

I come from a poor family in Huining County, Gansu Province. In 2015, I became a student majoring in Water Conservancy and Hydropower Engineering in North China University of Water Resources and Electric Power.

 時間過的真快，轉眼我已經工作一年多了。回想當初，如果沒有冉叔叔和黎叔叔幫忙轉介、澳門樂善行和潘瑤芝姨姨的資助，我上大學的夢只能是希望的肥皂泡。因為我曾經患腎病綜合症的女孩，時不時的醫院檢查，還得每天按時服藥，連大夫都抱著邊治療邊觀察的態度，有時甚至我本人想放棄治療，硬是爸爸媽媽不服輸的堅持治療和心理開導，稍微穩定了我的情緒；特別是澳門樂善行潘姨姨的資助不但給予我巨大的經濟資助，更重要的精神上的鞭策鼓勵，冉叔叔對我說：“澳門樂善行叔叔阿姨幫助你，就是鑒於病情嚴重，要堅持讀書不能輟學。” 從此我在學校讀書再也沒有跑毛，說心裏話如果沒有您們的幫助，我不可能體會到精彩紛呈的大學生活，不可能享受到學校先進的教學資源，優良的學習環境；更不可能得到這種專業的高等教育。在學校我不曾忘記學習機會的來之不易，認真勤奮。我也參加一些志願活動盡自己的綿薄之力幫助那些需要幫助的人。     在學校接受兩年基礎教育後，我於2019年8月至2020年1月在深圳教育培訓機構實習。因為學校所學專業為學前教育，而培訓機構主要任職為小學語文老師。因為專業不同，在任職期間每每加班備教案至淩晨兩三點。在不斷的努力中，學生越來越多及喜歡我，學生的成績也名列前茅。在實習期結束時，培訓負責人再三想讓我留在深圳負責語文教學工作，因為離家遠，委婉拒絕。實習結束後馬上返回學籍地參加教師資格證面試工作，幸有實習講課經驗，面試並沒有難到我，一次性拿到了幼師資格證。然而因為疫情原因，畢業以九天時間匆匆劃了句號。因為疫情各個工作單位暫時不招人，於是我看到了烏魯木齊的事業單位招聘，毫不猶豫報考。         2020年在烏魯木齊疫情爆發時，為做好防疫工作，我每天都會穿防護服睡在居民樓底下的車裏，給居民送菜倒垃圾等等各種防疫工作。其實確實挺苦挺累，有時候堅持不住的時候會想起澳門樂善行、潘姨姨和黎叔叔的幫助，會想起爸爸媽媽的辛苦。我這份工作沒有節假雙休，在工作一年後因為離家遠，也因為工資從四千突然下降到兩千入不敷出的原因。於今年8月辭職返回甘肅定西。目前面試了定西市幼稚園，現在等待上班的通知，請叔叔阿姨等待在幼稚園正式上班的好消息吧！ 筆者在今年國慶日農田勞動 筆者(左)今年與媽媽合影於老家 筆者（前排左2）和同伴在疫情期間合影 筆者（前排左2）和同伴在疫情期間合影 筆者(左)和同伴正在工作 筆者(第2排左2)大學畢業合影

In July 2021, with the help of Care Action Macao and Uncle Wei, I graduated from university. I work in an environmental protection engineering company in Lanzhou, where the work is relatively easy and the working atmosphere is particularly good. Looking back on the past bit by bit, I feel that my life has been full, but now the happiest thing is that I can live on my own. While earning enough for myself, I also make some money for my family. This is the first time in my life that I feel happy.
