在美国,我的求学生涯是这样开始的。
In U.S., I started my humble academic career this way.

刚到的时候,我还很不懂事,对这个资本主义世界充满了好奇。
When I just arrived, I knew almost nothing about this capitalism world and was full of curiocity.
有的时候,很害羞,不知道怎么和这个世界打交道。
Sometimes, I was too shy to communicate with this world.

在纽约这个大都市里,我被自己的命运所摆布,不知道下一步该往何处去。

Many times, I had no control over my life and waited to be sacrificed on the alter of destiney.

或者干脆放弃,充分享受生活中的每一顿早餐,午餐和晚餐。
Or, I just gave it up and enjoyed each meal of my remaining days.

When I felt lonely, I imagined the free life after graduate school.

或者干脆一个人坐着发呆。
Or, I simply sat there in my vegetable state.

有的时候是在忍不下去了,我也会偶尔露一下我的牙齿。
Occasionally, I could not bear it anymore and I would show my teeth!

My academic advisor was always too busy to take care of me.

而且,现在的研究生这么不值钱,在那个国家都是这么得多!
Damn! Why there were so many cheap graduate students in every country!

Sometimes, I dreamed about Prince Charming who would come and rescue me.

I would be fine even with a uncle of Prince Charming.

可是他始终没来,只有我一个人在危险的生活边缘徘徊。
However, nobody came. I was playing on the verge of my dangeous life alone.
