正青春






               幸运于我一个“茶盲”有这样的机会深入著名的古树茶产地,                     通过深入研究学生的文书,我的质疑和遗憾都释然了:我发

               果:截止到撰写此文,此行的 5 名学生中的 4 个当季申请者,                 新办法等;我也发现了孩子们的成长,说实话,因为一个活
               提前批已有 2 个纽约大学,1 个宾州州立大学的录取,相信                   动萌生一个大学的申请念头是不真实的,但却可以坚定他们
               常规申请阶段,会给我们更多的惊喜。                               对于大学的向往,清晰他们申请某个大学某个专业的原因,
                                                               甚至延展了他们对于未来的憧憬:将普洱茶文化带到美国去。

               在今年申请的 4 个学生的活动列表和文书中,我都发现了这
               次普洱茶活动的影子。尽管我内心也有是不是太功利(做活
               动就是为了申请)的质疑,尽管觉得临沧昔归三天调研,回
               到昆明后我们又组织了学生去学茶品茶补课,还是时间太短
               的遗憾,尽管我们又做了普洱茶学院,也招募到其他学生,
               让更多人关注了普洱茶等等。但这于我来说,也是一个发现
               问题解决问题的过程,也是我对于本地化活动的探索过程。
