4. My Job
After three years of studying Food Process Engineering at Purdue, I realized that a 9-5 job at one of the big food companies wasn’t the life for me. I spent the last year of college building websites for my own personal profit and in the process learned a lot about web development.
我的工作
在普渡大學(xué)學(xué)了三年的食品加工工程后，我意識(shí)到在一家大公司朝九晚五的工作并不是我想要的生活。于是大四那年我一直依靠建設(shè)網(wǎng)站賺錢，并且從中學(xué)到了很多有關(guān)網(wǎng)絡(luò)開發(fā)的東西。
After I graduated, I made one call to a cousin who owned a web development company. He gave me an opportunity to work on a project which eventually led to a full time gig.I put this on my list because my cousin had no reason to hire me. I had no degree and no professional experience, but he took a chance and gave me an opportunity.
畢業(yè)后，我給一位自己經(jīng)營網(wǎng)絡(luò)開發(fā)公司的表哥打電話。他讓我參與了一個(gè)項(xiàng)目，而后我憑借這個(gè)機(jī)會(huì)成為全職雇員。我之所以認(rèn)為這個(gè)也是不勞而獲，因?yàn)槲矣X得我表哥沒什么理由選擇雇傭我。我既沒學(xué)位，也沒專業(yè)經(jīng)驗(yàn)，但他卻冒險(xiǎn)給了我這樣一個(gè)機(jī)會(huì)
5. My Websites
I own and operate several blogs in my spare time. I build my sites on either WordPress or Drupal. Both of these website platforms are open source projects that are completely free to use.
我的網(wǎng)站
業(yè)余時(shí)間，我經(jīng)營了幾個(gè)自己的博客，有的是我在WordPress博客引擎上建的，有的是在 Drupal內(nèi)容管理平臺(tái)上建的。這兩個(gè)網(wǎng)站平臺(tái)都是開源項(xiàng)目，完全免費(fèi)使用。
In the web development world, it is so easy to take for granted all of the free information, scripts, programs, and platforms that are available. The cost to develop a blog platform similar to WordPress or Drupal would be in the thousands, not to mention all of the free modules and add-ons.The WordPress and Drupal communities have created a product that allows me to set up a new blog in minutes for free.
WordPress 和 Drupa社區(qū)提供了一種可以讓我在幾分鐘內(nèi)免費(fèi)創(chuàng)建博客的產(chǎn)品。在網(wǎng)絡(luò)開發(fā)的世界里，人們很容易想當(dāng)然地以為所有可用的信息、腳本、程序、平臺(tái)就是免費(fèi)的。事實(shí)上，開發(fā)出一個(gè)像WordPress和Drupal這樣的博客平臺(tái)就要花費(fèi)數(shù)以千計(jì)，這還不算那些免費(fèi)的模塊和附加程序。
