我毕业于竞争激烈的硅谷高中，80%同学是亚裔，内卷很痛，但结局“很香”

The toxic environment really took a toll on some students. There’s only so much competition and pressure a person can take.

“有毒”的学习环境确实影响了很多学生，毕竟一个人只能承受有限的压力和竞争。

Being born and raised in Silicon Valley, I genuinely believed that I had below-average intelligence. Magically, I was considered smart in college.

在硅谷出生和长大，让我一直相信自己的智力低于平均水平。但神奇的是，我在大学里被认为是聪明的人。

One of my friends even told me I was “gifted.” I never thought anyone would use those words to describe me.

我的一个朋友甚至告诉我，我非常有“天赋”，我从没想过有人会用这些词来形容我。
