Looking back at 2017, what was something you wanted to do but didn’t have time to do?

Looking back at 2017, although I have completed several major life events and my time has been fully arranged, there is still one thing I have always wanted to do that I have not yet taken action on.

——Learn guzheng.

The guzheng is my country’s national musical instrument. I have been yearning for the timbre of the guzheng since I was in school, but my plan to learn the guzheng has been put on hold due to time constraints. I usually listen to some guzheng music and some popular songs played by guzheng masters, such as Yumian Xiaoyanran. I really like the guzheng music she plays and the feeling when playing the guzheng, like running water flowing through my heart.

In 2017, I quit my job in Beijing because of my pregnancy and went to my husband’s house for prenatal care and child care. I originally had time to sign up for classes, but because the transportation in my husband’s house was not very convenient, it took a lot of trouble to learn guzheng. I still have to deal with the master's thesis in June, so I gave up the idea after thinking about it. After June, after 10 months of living as a royal concubine, I was already overwhelmed by the hard work and nerve-wracking work of taking care of the baby, and I had no time to study anymore

——Enroll in a job skills improvement class.

During my pregnancy, my original plan was to return to Beijing in October after giving birth and have my family come with me. In this way, I can have time to sign up for training courses related to my work skills. Because I have been idle at home for a year, I always feel that I have been left behind in this industry. Only by constantly improving my skills can I be very confident when I return to the workplace in the future. , and can enter a relatively good development platform.

However, I was too optimistic. I took the baby back to Beijing to reunite with my husband in October. My mother-in-law injured her wrist and could not help look after the baby, and my mother couldn’t get away. I was the only one who continued to take care of the baby. Sorry, this plan can only be postponed.

Time will not wait for us, we still have to do what we want to do as early as possible.

2018, come on!
