China News Service, Guangzhou, February 14th (Guo Jun and Wu Qiong) "This year's Spring Festival is a special Spring Festival. For the first time, I didn't go home to celebrate the New Year... However, for every Chinese, being able to personally participate in this 'opening'. The event at my doorstep is a very rare opportunity, and I am very proud to be a volunteer for the Winter Olympics and to make my own contribution to the Games."
Sister Xian's daughter volunteered at the Winter Olympics
On the eve of the Lantern Festival, a letter from home from the Beijing Winter Olympics brought a bit of warmth and emotion to Sister Xian of the China Construction Fourth Bureau South China Construction Company.
For her, this Spring Festival of the Year of the Tiger is particularly deserted and lonely. This is the first time that her daughter has not been by her side to celebrate the New Year.
It turned out that Sister Xian's daughter went to college in Beijing. Last year, she became a volunteer for the Beijing Winter Olympics through multiple screenings. She entered the Beijing Wukesong Gymnasium more than a month ago to carry out volunteer service work and served as a competition information assistant.
Considering the intensity of volunteer services for the Winter Olympics, the long closed-loop cycle, and the high risk of epidemic prevention and control, at the beginning, Sister Xian was unavoidably upset.
On New Year's Eve, the family of three could only "reunite" in the video to celebrate the New Year. However, when she saw that the daughter in the video was always smiling brightly and reporting her safety, she finally felt relieved and couldn't help but sighed: "My daughter is growing up. It's big! I learned to take responsibility and take responsibility!"
From her daughter's home letter, Sister Xian not only read about her daughter's homesickness of "thinking about her relatives every festive season", but also her daughter's joy in working and having fun with the volunteers.
While she is proud and happy for her daughter, she also hopes that her daughter can enjoy the different joys of volunteering, witness ice events, participate in the operation of the Winter Olympics venues... and harvest the most unforgettable memory in her life.
"When we meet next time, it must be the time for spring flowers to bloom. At that time, we can express our thoughts and share all kinds of anecdotes!" Sister Xian was reading a warm letter from home, full of expectations. .
