By eight, I was so frustrated and desperate to sleep that I hit my head against the wall in the middle of the night; if I couldn't fall asleep, I thought, I'd knock myself out.

八岁的时候，我因为不能入眠而绝望至极，在半夜里用头去撞墙，心想如果再睡不着，就把自己撞死算了。

I was leaning against some sandbags one morning, not much going on, sort of spacing out, and some sand was kicked into the side of, sort of hit the side of my face.

一天早晨，我靠着一些沙袋，没什么事，有点在放空的状态。有些沙子从我的侧脸冲出来，我知道有东西击中我的脸。
