英文写作： My Career Now and Painter
||
It's nice of him to tell me that my salary is higher than the other translators'. After all, I feel the company hires me for I am qualified for my job, which is the company's getting its money's worth.
I read, a lot, and I think I'd put my knowledges into practice before I graduated. Don't tell me what life is supposed to be, things I already know.
Fatigue and weariness, ain't matter, as long as I got the money to buy coffee. And I am following William Shakespeare's example that I always wanna learn more.
The more I learn, the more I get to know, the more secured I feel about my life, the more I know how to weave my future.
I never like banquets or parties, or things like that, I hate the way some use this trick just so he could climb up the ladder. How am I supposed to feel when I hear all those flatterings and shoe-polishings? Some don't even have the ability to hold his post.
There is a yes-moron in my office, whom I hate so( Originally the phrase is yes-man, meaning应声虫，附和的人, but I kinda change it to yes-moron, which Americans totally understand, the term is gonna be said with a whole lot of disgust.)
The yes-moron does not even understand the meaning of "make-up" "herbal tea""tissue""Kubla Khan", My gosh, he called himself good, and he even took the IELTS(雅思), returning telling me that he could not understand the listening comprehension.
I am not gonna write about him, which is gonna be a waste of typing energy as well as my thoughts. Not worth it.
The saddest thing in this world is Not enough knowledge to apply when required, Not enough money to spend when needed(书到用时方恨少，钱到用时方恨少)
Thus, I work, like a sweating donkey, like a machine, like Michelangelo...
My Dad said to me when I was just a kid,"牛耕田，马吃谷。老豆（广东方言）赚钱仔（儿子）享福.
Well, Dad, it's gonna be your son's turn now, let's hope I can be good（希望自己会有出色吧）
If you want me to talk philosophy, I am gonna be straight from the bottom of my heart, to you, to my friends, to my family, and to the wife I am gonna have in the future,
"The restricted freedom in economy deprives one of all other aspects of freedom in life."
经济的不独立，生命中的任何一方面的自由都被剥夺了。
So sad but true, just as Charles Dickens puts it,
"Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure nineteen nineteen and six, result happiness. Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure twenty pounds ought and six, result misery. "
Earn money, your love for your family is measured by the amounts of money you earn. Earn money, your love for your honey will be less honey by each cent, each RMB you earn less.
I am not talking about there's only money, money, and money in this world. A balance of earning money and other aspects in your life would be perfect.
And Painter, I used to think as a kid that happiness is drawing pictures. And just when I still did not know how to read, how to spell, how to comprehend texts, I could still draw, draw out the world in my mind, draw out the meaning I wanna express.
I remember seeing the big smiles on my face whenever I art attacked what I assumed beautiful in my mind as a kid. The cartoons, the sketches, the water-colored paintings, charcoal art attacks and all.
If literature is misery, no matter beautiful things written in sentimental words or melancholy things put in beautiful lines, then painting is happiness.
We draw with our minds, we express what we think in the shared language all human beings, even animals can understand.
Too sad painting is not an ability that could earn one money, ain't matter again, make it a noble hobby that you could enjoy while pursuing your wealth in life.
用我这支蘸满忧愁的笔，诉说我生命中遭遇的失望与无助。我从未放弃过努力追求更幸福美满的生活，我的态度是承认暂时的生活绝无幸福快乐可言，但我会凭着我的能力去改变。生活本来如一潭绝望的死水，但锦绣编织的前路会由我创造。
那剃不干净的须根，就是男生努力过程的艰辛；那忧郁黯然的眼神，是男生追求梦想中受挫的经历......
希望Daniel能成为狄更斯二世。
The End
完了

I read this line from an English magazine as a high school student. You really read a lot.
A lot of times, even though you quote some beautiful lines from some great English books, I guess I could still tell the origin. You are my friend, I guess we have read the same books.
