I went to the University of Toronto. I remember when I was an undergrad, I found school very difficult, especially in my freshman year.
我是在多伦多大学上的学。我还记得我读大学的时候,觉得在学校的一切都很困难,尤其是大一那年。
I guess the main problem was it was my first time away from home.

School had always come naturally to me before. I wasn't used to cramming and pulling all-nighters. I naturally had been a straight-A student.
以前,学业对我来说总是很自然的一件事。我过去并不习惯死记硬背和开夜车,但我自然而然就成了一个优秀学生。

The problem was I was terrified of my prof and my TAs.
