meet a countryman

when i play a network game--super dancer , i find a person with my town's name as his nickname . so i ask him if it is his hometown . and he said yes . and then i chat with him for quite a while .

i find we have a lot in common . we live in the same town , we learn the same major in the school . but he's older than me , and have worked for half a year . but he is not so satisfied with his job . the salary is too low , and he found that what he learned at school is useless .

i'm shocked . i've thought about that before , but i don't know it really happens . so , what we get from our school-life ? i always think that i can get many good things potentially , like the habit of learning , the way of getting along with others . but there will be a gap between the dream and the reality .

and he also advises me not to take the exam to become a graduate student . it's not good for a girl especially in a town like this . and he says it's not helpful . he's just shaking my heart to prepare for that exam .

and i just see somebody saying that his old classmate gets married recently , but he has no girlfriend and learns hard at school . it's a kind of imbalance . and that countryman also says he feels not so good when he found that his classmates lead a better lives , even have a car , but he is tired from working for that little money .

it's really hard . when you've tried so hard , but maybe what you get is very little . what can i do , then ?
where is the future ? have to work hard -- it means that you have tried , at least . so cruel ...
