邓智华：Self-disciplineBringsMeFreedom（自律给我自由）(3)

I can"t wait to get rid of that boring Chinese high school life at that time, expecting my beautiful new life in America.
不论我怎么做，好像都永远没办法让我的父母和老师满意。那时候，我简直迫不及待地想要逃离国内的学习生活，期待在美国开启新的人生。

失控的生活
The first couple of months of my life back in America were out of control.
Because that was the first time in my life I felt like I had freedom!!!
I can do whatever I want, like playing video games all day without my parents’ eyes on me or simply staying away from homework.
I was like a bird out of the cage.

在我刚到美国的几个月，我的生活几近失控了。
那是我人生中第一次感受到无人监管的自由，我可以随心所欲做任何想做的事情，哪怕是玩一整天的电子游戏或者不完成学校作业都再没有人监督我了。
