There is no denying that Tik Tok is still very successful, and Tik Tok has many attractions for young people.
First, Tik Tok presents information in the form of video, which is more vivid than words and pictures;
Second, Tik Tok's video time is very short, about ten or twenty seconds. You will be more willing to watch the video than ten or twenty minutes, because it gives you a sense of completion;
Thirdly, Tik Tok has many kinds of videos, such as dancing/songs/pets/scenery/funny/Amway/daily life. Seeing all kinds of videos on the home page will make you feel colorful and full of freshness.
If you are bored, Tik Tok is really an option to kill time. Time slips away between one short video after another for tens of seconds. When watching those videos, it seems that there is really nothing meaningful except some background music in my mind. This is a very sad thing, so time and life are wasted.
In the article you sent me, you wrote, "They love to play because of two words: emptiness." At that time, I was playing in Tik Tok, which was my most empty time. It was winter vacation, and I was anxiously waiting for the results of the postgraduate entrance examination. When the final grades came out, I felt very depressed. I didn't expect to be admitted, so I lost my goal in life and my future was very confused.
There is another reason to play Tik Tok: everyone else is playing. If I don't play, I will be out of date. What do my classmates think of me? Can my friends and I still have the same topic? In fact, we are all too easily influenced by the external environment. We are too eager to integrate into the collective and too afraid of being isolated. However, none of this can be a reason for depravity. I know that only self-discipline will make me better. Just like when I unloaded Weibo, what nutrition do those gossip hotspots have? Do I have to know? You can watch the news and read books when you have time. When friends talk about entertainment, they either laugh it off or simply don't participate.
Although I don't have good family conditions and have no chance to receive a good education, my mother has attached great importance to learning since I was a child, and it is also because of my mother's accompanying education that I can be admitted to the university. So I have been working hard and making progress. I was born in the sun. I didn't have any toys or even new clothes in my childhood. Fortunately, Sister Liang Tianxing gave me many books she read, so I have no hobbies except reading. I spent my adolescence in a small house without a toilet, so I don't have the rebellious mentality of my peers. I just wanted to study hard and get into a key high school. When I was in the senior high school entrance examination, I saw dozens of large color TVs at my uncle's house for the first time, so I never saw anything. Until now, my family still can't afford a house, so I can only rent a house. There is another saying: "The children of poor families are the masters early."
Although I am not mature enough and have insufficient ability, I will try my best to distinguish what is good and what is meaningful, instead of putting entertainment first and blindly pursuing enjoyment. I know there is nothing wrong with learning more knowledge, forming good habits and doing the right thing. There are many temptations in the society now, and there are also many bad influences from others. I will see clearly from them and be myself.
Finally, I want to thank my aunt for giving me advice on postgraduate entrance examination and job hunting. She usually cares about me so much that she is afraid that I have this bad habit. I will try my best!
