Changes of AA system

The first time I heard about AA system was when/kloc-0 went to college in 1998. The school began to popularize AA system, but at that time, students in Northeast China didn't quite understand such a thing. We share all kinds of expenses and feel like strangers. It's better if someone pays the bill. Everyone thinks this is a good relationship. I study in a school in the northeast, and the students are mainly children in the northeast, so everyone basically follows the original principle of life. It's your treat today and it's my treat tomorrow. But apart from food, the things used in everyone's dormitory are mainly shared equally, and everyone is happy.

In the first semester of college holidays, high school students get together. A student goes to school in Shenyang, and their school enrolls students all over the country. Students come from all over the country. There is a southerner in the dormitory who is used to AA system. When all else fails, he will exchange it with something else. Compared with other students, he will invite him to eat noodles for free and give him a bag of instant noodles as a reward. Nobody owes anyone anything, so we're even. My classmate told us a joke, and everyone thought it was funny. How can it be so clear between classmates that it affects feelings! So our party is still the original way, and everyone spends money every time.

When I was a sophomore, my classmates' recognition of AA system changed a little. Because the disadvantages of the traditional way of treating guests are exposed, for example, every time we take turns to treat guests, some students who value money just don't want to spend money to invite everyone. Slowly, everyone has ideas, and there are fewer natural guests. Those who are invited feel that they are losing money, and those who are not invited feel that they are making money, and contradictions arise. Everyone thinks of the AA system. I don't know when the AA system was implemented, and everyone gradually accepted it. Although there is still some rejection in my heart.

It's almost 20 years since graduation, and students will get together again. If the AA system is not implemented, everyone is not used to it anyway. Students from other places think it's too far away, so they don't usually get together, and they may not be able to afford to invite everyone to dinner. With the AA system, everyone will spend their own money, so they will not feel burdened, and people will no longer feel indebted to them. The benefits of the AA system will be reflected.

For us, the acceptance of anything new has a process. With the change of time, we will gradually accept some new things. The change history of AA system is also the change of social interpersonal relationship in China. From the previous group activities to the current individual activities, it is an upgrade of economic and social transformation. It is also the improvement of interpersonal relationship. AA system is more scientific, more reasonable and more applicable. However, among relatives and friends, and among several good friends, the traditional way is still the main way, which can be regarded as maintaining the characteristics of China.
