And I didn't really want to jump over these hurdles, because they seemed completely arbitrary, so I often wouldn't, and then people would threaten me, you know, they'd threaten me with this "going on [my] permanent record," or "You'll never get a good job."
私はそんな恣意的なハードルを 別に越えたいと思わず 実際越えないこともよくありました するとみんな脅しはじめます この記録は一生ついてまわるんだとか 将来良い仕事に就けないぞとか
