In other words, from September 1999 to June 2002, I did not have any significant breaks with the exception of three weeks for winter vacation. I did not want to take it easy at school and draw out the process, but rather I wanted to make the best of this opportunity to study.
換句話說，從一九九八年九月到二○○二年六月，除了寒假的三個禮拜以外，我沒有很長的休假，因為我不想在大學時輕輕鬆鬆地念書拖延時間，而想要努力把握學習的時光。
