The first realization frightened me in the beginning . But that fear quickly disappeared. It was the other two goals that ended up being my difficulties . I knew that it was hard to devote enough time to class and to social efforts . But I wanted to succeed in both. I knew this would be a challenge, but I didn’t realize how much until classes began .

我对最初的现实感到恐惑，但很快就消失了。我的困难是完成另外两个目标。我知道很难有足够的时间兼顾学习和社会活动，但是我想在两方面都取得成功。我早知道这是个挑战，但是直到课程开始，我才明白这个挑战有多大。
