At the outset, I would want to mention that I am a Stanford CS undergrad working for an extremely well-known tech company in NYC, earning around $100k. Here's a sneak peek into my dark side which absolutely no one knows about.

首先我要提一下，我是斯坦福大學計算機專業本科生，在紐約一家知名的科技公司工作，薪水10萬美元左右。在這裏我揭祕了完全沒有人知曉的我的陰暗面。

I have a habit of shoplifting, so much so that I became really good at it. I know that I can easily afford to purchase the stuff that I steal, but shoplifting just gives me this "high" that is indescribable.. I stole B&W C5 from the Apple Store, and randomly steal stuff from other stores.

我有入店行竊的習慣，偷得多了我就變得很擅長這個。我明知我完全買得起我偷的東西，但是入店行竊給我一種難以形容的快感。我在蘋果專賣店偷過B&W C5耳機，也隨機在其它商店偷過東西。

I got caught for shoplifting 2 weeks ago, and had to pay the civil demand fee of $150, after which I've almost stopped shoplifting. The $150 penalty was probably 20% of the total worth of stuff that I've stolen over the months.

兩週前我因爲入店行竊被逮捕了，還得支付150美元的民事訴訟費，在那之後我幾乎要戒掉行竊習慣了。150美元的罰款佔了我數月以來所盜之物的總額的20%。

I have no friends at all, just a girlfriend.. Having no friends makes me quite lonely and unhappy in spite of people thinking that I'm "living the life". I really try making friends, but unfortunately I fuck up each and every time because of my big mouth, and generally people think that I'm not a fun person to hang out with, when in fact the truth is the opposite once I open up to people.

我根本就沒有朋友，只有一個女朋友，這讓我很孤獨、很難過，雖然大家只是覺得我“生來如此”。實際上，我一直在試着交朋友，但是很遺憾，我每一次都會因爲我的口無遮攔而搞砸，而且大部分人都覺得跟我一起出去玩很沒意思，可是實際上只要我和大家混熟之後就完全不會這樣了。

I have a huge inferiority complex and don't believe in myself. Heck I'm 22 and I'm making 100k at a top tech company but I still feel that I'm shit. Nobody really cares about me. I don't blame them though.. Nobody really knows me I guess.

我有很強烈的自卑感，也無法信任自己。我今年22歲，在一家頂尖的科技公司工作，年薪10萬，但我還是該死地覺得自己就是人渣。沒有人真正在乎我，但是我卻沒法責怪他們……我猜根本就沒有人瞭解我。

Two and a half years ago I was in dire financial straits, so I sold my home to keep my struggling business afloat. I neglected to tell the owners that they have an 800 sq. ft. bunker on the property that I built about seven years ago. The bunker that I've called home since I sold it. The entrance to it is well-hidden, but I still come and go very early/very late in the day.

兩年半前，我的經濟狀況非常糟糕，所以我賣了房子讓我岌岌可危的公司不至於破產。我沒有告訴買家這片地產上有800平方英尺的倉庫，那是我大概在七年前建的。在我賣了房子之後，這個倉庫就被我當做了家。儘管倉庫的入口非常隱蔽，但我還是每天早出晚歸。

I'm a single man who keeps to himself. I'm now in a situation where I could move somewhere else, but I love this hidden paradise so much.

我是個不與人交際的單身男人，儘管我現在的情況是可以搬到其他地方，但我還是很喜愛這個隱蔽的天堂。
