时间胶囊：我想告诉年轻时的自己Looking back at my younger years, I am sometimes amazed at how life has turned out. Nothing is exactly what I had originally planned for. The only thing that stays the same is who I am, my values, and my interests. If I could go back in time and hang out with my younger self for a day, heres what I would tell her.回首年轻的时候，有时我会惊讶于生活的变迁。一切都不是我最初计划的样子，唯一不变的是我自己、我的价值观和我的兴趣。如果我能回到过去和年轻时的自己漫步一整天，下面就是我要对自己说的。1.

You can plan ahead, but your plan will definitely change when the time comes.你可以提前计划，但计划没有变化快。You can plan ahead?because sometimes planning ahead can give you a clearer direction of where you want to go. However, plans will almost always change, so be prepared!你可以提前做好计划，因为有时提前做计划能让你更加明确自己前进的方向。然而计划总是会变，所以你要有心理准备！4. Trust your instincts.相信自己的直觉。Dont worry too much about a decision you have to make. Just do what feels right. You know what you want. You might consult other people. But deep down, you know what you wa
