My first semester at MIT was awesome - I was verymotivated and got all A's, despite everything beingpass/no record. I even got an A+ in differentialequations. My second semester went pretty well, too, but I struggled very much in organic chemistry andended up with a B. This was my first B ever, andthough I was disappointed, I shook it off and triedto stay positive. I declared math as my major. I'mnot even sure why I took organic chemistry, since Iwas interested in math.
在麻省理工的第一學(xué)期成績驕人，我學(xué)積極主動，我的所有學(xué)科成績都是A，沒有不過的科目。甚至在微積分方程我得了A+。第二學(xué)期也差不多，成績很好，除了有機(jī)化學(xué)我得了個B這點讓我有點揪心。那是我第一次得B我，所以不免有點失望，不過我還是擺脫陰影，保持積極。數(shù)學(xué)是我的專業(yè)，而且我的興趣也在數(shù)學(xué)，我也不確定為什么會選擇有機(jī)化學(xué)。
My parents were pressuring me to be a premed and become a doctor (like them) so I guess Iwas trying to appease them. But at the same time, I was desperately running away from themand their emotional abuse. I was very conflicted and had no idea what I wanted to do with mylife. I had always excelled in math and so I chose to pursue that. I didn't know it at the time, but my very sense of self-worth was based on the fact that I was good at math.
大概父母想要讓我成為醫(yī)科預(yù)備生，然后像他們一樣成為一個醫(yī)生，我為了討他們的歡心才做出這樣的選擇。但同時，我又極度想擺脫他們情緒上的控制，我很矛盾，也不知道我將來要做什么，我數(shù)學(xué)很棒，所以我選擇堅持下去，同時也因為數(shù)學(xué)好，我有點自大，當(dāng)時我沒有意識到這一點。
My third semester, I took 18.700 (Linear Algebra). I had never done higher-level math based onproofs before, and I ended up with a D. I didn't do that well in my other classes, either. Istarted skipping classes more and more, sleeping more and more. It seemed like all my friendswere doing so well, getting all these internships and opportunities over the summers, while myparents made me fly home and stay with them every summer. The next semester I got 2 F's .
第三學(xué)期，我選擇了18.700(線性代數(shù))，我之前從來都沒有學(xué)過基于驗證的高等數(shù)學(xué)，這門課最后得了一個D，而且其他課業(yè)每況愈下。我開始不斷逃課，睡覺。我身邊的朋友都學(xué)得不錯，暑假都得到了實習(xí)的機(jī)會。而每次暑假我的父母都要我回去陪伴他們。之后的一個學(xué)期我得了兩個F。
My fifth semester, I realized that I was awful at higher-level math and so I switched my majorto computer science. I had lost all confidence in myself. I attended a few classes at thebeginning of the semester, but after the first midterms, I completely stopped. My only reliefwas the dance team I was on. I would sleep all day, muster up the courage to get out of bedand go to dance practice, pretend everything was okay at dinner with my friends, and then goback to sleep. As expected, I failed all of my classes and had to withdraw from MIT.
第五學(xué)期，我意識到我實在不適合讀高數(shù)，于是就換到了電腦科學(xué)專業(yè)，我徹底失去了信心。學(xué)期一開始我很少上課。到第一次期中，我徹底不學(xué)了。我就只去學(xué)校的舞蹈隊，我睡一整天，然后振作精神起床去練跳舞，假裝啥事沒有和我的朋友一起吃晚飯，和我回去睡覺。不出所料，我的所有科目都掛了，只能輟學(xué)。
Sinced I was forced to withdraw, I had no choice but to tell my parents. Over winter break, Itold them I didn't want to go back. My dad asked to see my grades, for the first time ever. Ishakingly emailed him my transcript, then went to my room and hid behind my bed, preparedfor the worst. Instead of yelling or hitting me, though, he just held me and cried. The next day, he took off from work and took me and my mom to a nearby, small liberal arts college (myolder brother went there). We went to the admissions office and they literally *begged* them tohelp me. I felt completely numb.
被迫輟學(xué)以后，我只能告訴我的父母。寒假之前，我告訴他們我不想回去，爸爸第一次問我要了成績單。我戰(zhàn)戰(zhàn)兢兢地發(fā)給了他，然后回到我的房間，躲在床后面，準(zhǔn)備好迎接最壞的打算。他們沒有吼我，也沒有打我，只是抱著我哭。第二天爸爸請假帶著我和媽媽來到了附近一所小型的文理學(xué)院(我的哥哥在那里讀過)。我們?nèi)チ苏猩k，父母懇請他們幫幫我。我當(dāng)時徹底感覺麻木了。
Somehow, I was conditionally accepted, and I just had to do well my first semester. I took verybasic classes on things I had mastered in high school. But I was burnt out, and I had lost allconfidence in myself. Before my first biology test, I remember telling my mom I didn't think Icould pass. I did pass, with flying colors. But I also fucked up. In my writing class, I could notcomplete a project on time, and I stopped showing up to class again. I finally talked to theprofessor, and he gave me an incomplete. The admissions office was not happy, and they toldme this was my final chance. If I didn't shape up the next semester, they were kicking me out. They only let me take 5 credit hours.
不過我還是接受了，只要第一學(xué)期好好表現(xiàn)，我選修了在高中就已經(jīng)掌握了的基礎(chǔ)課程。我感覺徹底失去了信心，身體被掏空。在我第一次生物考試之前，曾記得告訴媽媽，這門課我可能不會過。但是我還是過了，而且考的不錯。當(dāng)我還是搞砸了，我的寫作課，我不能按時完成作業(yè)，而且也沒有去上課。最后去找教授談話，他給了我一個沒有完成的評分。招生辦就不高興了，他們警告我說這是我最后的機(jī)會，如果我下學(xué)期再不改正，就讓我滾蛋。他們只給我修5個學(xué)分。
I was angry at myself, and at them, but the low credit limit was actually a blessing indisguise. Since I had so much free time, I decided to join a biology lab with my professor fromthe first semester. And I LOVED it. I started doing research ~35 hours a week, and I realized - this is what I want to do! I want to be a scientist! I finally had a goal, and internal motivation, and I decided I would do my absolute best to make it come true. I kept working, day by day, onboth school and research. It was hard, and it was humbling. My parents and I had a lot ofemotions and anger to deal with. Through sheer determination, I made it.
我生自己的氣，也生學(xué)校的氣，殊不知最低學(xué)分也幫了我的大忙。因為有了很多的空余時間，所以在第一學(xué)期我就參加了教授的生物實驗室。發(fā)現(xiàn)我深深的愛上了生物。每周最多花35個小時做研究，發(fā)現(xiàn)這就是我想要做的，我想成為一個科學(xué)家。我終于找到了我的目標(biāo)和內(nèi)在動機(jī)。而且我想要通過自己最大的努力將它實現(xiàn)。于是我每天都很努力，不管是在學(xué)校還是做研究。研究很難，而且感覺很微不足道。我的父母就應(yīng)為這個和我鬧情緒。通過不懈的努力，我做到了。
This past May, I graduated with highest honors, and now I am fortunate enough to havestarted my PhD in neurobiology.Though it ended up taking me 5 years to graduate fromcollege, I can say now that failing out of MIT was one of the best things that ever happened tome. I realized that a person is NOT their grades. I realized how much my parents love me (andI never could have recovered without their support), and I think we finally understand eachother. I finally discovered my passion in life, and now I get to put together my intensecuriosity for biology with my love for math!
就在過去的5月，我成功畢業(yè)，而且獲得最好榮譽，有幸開始我的神經(jīng)生物學(xué)博士學(xué)位研讀?；?年的時間我從大學(xué)畢業(yè)，現(xiàn)在我可以說從麻省理工輟學(xué)是我生命中發(fā)生過的最好的事情。讓我懂得一個人最重要的不是成績。我體會到了父母的愛，要不是他們我也不會重新振作，最終我們互相諒解。我也找到生命中的熱愛，可以把我對于生物的好奇和對數(shù)學(xué)的喜愛相結(jié)合。
