Good morning America! Hey, congratulations to all the young people across this country who are heading to college this fall.
早安美国，祝贺那些即将在今年秋天进入大学的所有年轻人。
Particularly those of you who are the first in your families to pursue your higher education I am so proud of you because as a first generation college graduate myself I know it isn't easy to get to this point.
Back when I first arrived at college I had plenty of moments of anxiety and doubt.
回想起我第一次上大学的时候 曾有过很多焦虑和怀疑自己的时刻。
I struggled to find my community choose my classes I didn't even know what right size sheets to put on my bed.
我努力寻找我的团体，选择我的课程，我甚至不知道在我的床上应该放什么尺寸的床单。
But before long I started to hit my stride I discovered subjects I was passionate about I made friends I loved and I went on to have the career that I dreamed of in public service.
And as you prepare to start your own college journey I want to give you a few pieces of advice.
当你们准备开始自己的大学之旅之前，我想给你们一些建议。
First, don't ever doubt that you deserve to be there. The admissions committee saw something special in you, and they were confident that you could succeed. That's why they accepted you. So don't waste any time worrying about whether you belong. Instead, put that energy into working hard and learning. Learn as much as you can.
Second, don't be afraid to try new things. These years are a precious opportunity to discover who you are and what you love doing. So be brave, take some risks, make some mistakes and then learn from them.
Third, whatever you do don't try to do this alone. Find a community to support you. Find professors to mentor you, and don't ever be afraid to seek out deans, counselors, tutors, RAs, and ask for help when you need it. That's their job, that's why they're there-they're there to help you.
Finally, never forget that there are so many people who believe in you, people who are cheering you on every step of the way, and I want you to know that Barack and I are proud of all of you, and we can't wait to see everything you go on to achieve, so congratulations again, keep reaching higher.
