火车站

上了大学后有很多出门的机会，总是坐火车。现在我坐在候车大厅里，忽然回忆起很多年以前，或许是七八年前。那几年有几次跟随父母或是长辈远行的经历，那时候我们总是在一天的黎明之前就开始坐车前往火车站，然后再去售票厅购票，因为不会提前知道列车会出现在什么时候，不知道它会在什么时候离开，所以我们只能早到，然后去售票处购买最近的车次。有时需要在候车厅等待几小时，有时则更久。我只记得百无聊赖。刚我去查，12306 app 在十年前就发布了。只是我们农民工人出身的父辈不会使用互联网罢了，他们也不知道。

After entering university, I had many opportunities to travel, always by train. Now I sit in the waiting hall, suddenly recalling many years ago, perhaps seven or eight years ago. During those years, there were several occasions when I traveled with my parents or elders. Back then, we would always start heading to the train station before dawn, then go to the ticket office to buy tickets, because we never knew when the train would arrive or depart. So we could only arrive early and buy tickets for the nearest departure. Sometimes we had to wait in the waiting hall for hours, sometimes even longer. I only remember the endless boredom. I just checked—the 12306 app was released ten years ago. It's just that our parents, who came from farming and working-class backgrounds, didn't know how to use the internet. They didn't know about it either.
