Time flies like water - Comment on "I was young then"

The years are like songs, and the past is wasted. It was a trajectory of youth, and it was even more of a period of youthful and arrogant passing. Youth is fleeting like running water, but Mu Ran looks back with millions of sighs. In our hearts, we were so young at that time; in our eyes, we were so flamboyant at that time. What remains unchanged in youth is our eternally nostalgic heart; what remains unchanged in youth is our incomprehensible feelings. Nostalgic thoughts lead us to dream about the past years, and Yi Cao's "I was young at that time" describes the lost youth years of you and me. Reading this romance novel, we feel more than just love; reading this romance novel, we experience the nostalgic tunes wafting through our ears. Looking at the title of the book, I was touched. The book reflects the youth plot of a generation. The characters in the book correspond to the story of the growth of the post-80s generation; the background of the book is set in the era of college around 2000; the story in the book revolves around the campus life of that group when the Internet suddenly became popular; the love plot in the book is set in the atmosphere of hot online chatting ; The young people in the book are the first new youths who dare to love, hate and shout for independence; the helplessness in the book has to end with the freedom to choose a career, full of enthusiasm but not knowing the true belonging - the beauty of ideals and the cruelty of reality; the helplessness between once longing and reality; the end of passionate fighting spirit and decadence. This is a reality; this is an environment; this is the high-spiritedness of a fledgling calf who is not afraid of tigers; this is also the sigh of many who have to smooth out the edges in the end. This book is more like an autobiography of Yi Cao. The concise words make the love story become like looking at flowers in the fog and looking at the moon in the water. It becomes very melancholy, and time can easily isolate love. Every plot in the book seems to be reflected in me. I found that Su Yang's experience in the story was actually what I experienced eighteen years ago. Each piece of text is like a mirror, reflecting my figure and reminding me of memories that I have gradually forgotten. Everyone will have ordinary happiness in their youth, as well as unforgettable and heart-wrenching love, but as time goes by, this memory will disappear with the wind. Our youth and innocence are easily buried without knowing it, but some people, like Su Yang, hold your promise with their heart and watch stubbornly. Time is like a song, beauties grow old easily, and youthful years are wasted. Following "when I was young", the memories of the past come to mind one by one. But those can only be memories of a special period. Reminiscing about those lost years. In the blink of an eye, you and I will grow up and grow old. As we shuttle between high-rise buildings, we still miss our youth, the fairy tale that can never be repeated.
