双语美文：我曾经是电子产品的致命克星

I've always had issues with gadgets

我曾经是电子产品的致命克星

but not anymore now because I delt with it...,

现在却不是了，因为我找到了解决的办法

Before this whenever I got a phone or a laptop

在此之前，无论何时，我接触到一只手机，或者一只平板电脑

it either stops working or

后者要么不能正常工作

 

just somebody steals it,

要么就是被偷走

just like that.

这类事层出不穷

My friends used to wonder a lot

我的朋友们都对此倍感惊讶 

and feel sorry for me,

也为我感到难过

some even mocked me

that I should go and bath seven times in the river.

But I've learnt over the years

not to sweat the small stuff,

I know what I need and what's best for me,

so this kept me going.

这让我能顺顺利利的度过每一天

So today I woke up just fine,

my phone was working just fine too

我的手机也运作正常

 

then suddenly out of the blue it just couldn't start.

It got me thinking really hard,

我沉思了许久 

my eyes welled up

不禁泪如泉涌

 

and started to think of another life with no phone,

开始想象自己没有手机，会如何生活

 

but before drowning in my thoughts

还好，在我被这些思绪湮没之前

 

I just whispered,

我轻声说道

'Please be fine,

请你好好的

I really am not ready for any expenses at the moment'.

现在我真的没钱去修理你

I kept whispering those phrases over and over again

我一边一边的重复低声念诵着这些话 

while checking my phone if it has started already

同时看着手机，希望它重新开机

 

and the next thing I knew I was answered.

很快我就发现，自己的悄语被听到了

I couldn't be thankful enough.

对我的手机，我感激不尽

So I just wanted to share this

when luck seems distant and quiet

but we should hold on to our faith.

但我们应该心存信念

So let's not get weary in believing!

让我们一直坚信生活会好起来！
