当我回顾自己上学的这些年，有件事情总浮现在我脑海里，（私立）高中时我们时不时就要写文章上交，多得像是永远写不完，那个时候总觉得学校的这种规定很没天理，但现在我却十分感谢那时候的严格要求，它让我更好的胜任现在的工作。

I always had some writing assignment hanging over my head. At the time the school's policy seemed oppressive, but now I am grateful for the oppression.

在高中的时候我出现在小道上田野间篮球场上，可是一旦开始大学生活，漫跑和篮球开始慢慢的退出。

I was in track, cross country and basketball in high school, but once I started college, the running and basketball began to slowly fade away.

现在回头看我的高中岁月，我发现其中发生的许多事都为我指明了写作道路，但我选择了忽视他们，而选择了我自己认为能来钱的方向。

Looking back at my high school years, I see a lot of patterns there that could have pointed me down the road to writing, but I chose to ignore them and go for areas where I believed the "money" was.
