"It is in the chaos that a hero will show his nature; it is when riding the wind and waves that the youth can present their brilliance." Hold on to your dream and remain true to the original aspiration. The road ahead will be long and don’t forget to smile. Seize the day and live it to the fullest. Let's take over the baton, and actively engage in the cause that our motherland and the people need most. Our love developed when we met each other but it won't end even we bid farewell. Wish you all the best of luck as you set sail from Chengdu University, say goodbye to your immature selves, and run towards a new and bright future!
