雙語暢銷書《我是馬拉拉》第13章:古爾瑪凱的日記(4)
It was thrilling to see my words on the website.
I was a bit shy to start with but after a while I got to know the kind of things Hai Kakar wanted me to talk about and became more confident.
一開始我有點害羞，但過了一段時間之後，我開始明白海·卡卡爾希望從我這裏瞭解到些什麼，因此我變得比較自信。He liked personal feelings and what he called my 'pungent sentences' and also the mix of everyday family life with the terror of the Taliban.
他希望日記呈現的是我個人的感受，用他所謂“辛辣的字句”來描述，將塔利班的恐怖統治與我的日常生活聯繫在一起。
I wrote a lot about school as that was at the centre of our lives.
我寫了很多與學校有關的事情，因爲那是我們生活的重心。I loved my royal-blue school uniform but we were advised to wear plain clothes instead and hide our books under our shawls.
我喜歡我的寶藍色學生制服，但校方建議我們改穿一般的服裝上學，同時建議我們將書本藏在披巾底下。One extract was called DO NOT WEAR COLOURFUL CLOTHES.
有一篇名爲“不要穿彩色服裝”的日記中，In it I wrote, 'I was getting ready for school one day and was about to put on my uniform when I remembered the advice of our principal, so that day I decided to wear my favourite pink dress.'
我寫道：“一天，上學時間到了，我正要套上制服，忽然想起校長的叮嚀。於是，我決定穿上我最喜歡的粉紅色連衣裙去上課。”I also wrote about the burqa.
我也寫到罩袍。When you're very young, you love the burqa because it's great for dressing up.
當你年幼時，會喜歡罩袍，因爲它穿起來很好看。But when you are made to wear it, that's a different matter.
但是，如果你是被迫穿上罩袍，情況就截然不同了。Also it makes walking difficult!
而且，穿上它令人行走困難！
