I am Growing a Truck in the Garden

I'm growing a truck in the garden.

我在花园里种了一辆卡车。

I wake today. I wake today, get out of bed, then stretch and yawn and scratch my head. I find my clothes, I pull them on. I wonder where my homework's gone. I grab a breakfast bar for fuel and get my pack and head to school. When I arrive, I'm truly shocked. The lights are off, the door is locked. I check my watch, it's me, not them. I woke too soon. It's four a .m.

我今天醒啦。 我今天醒过来，爬下床，伸个懒腰打个哈欠，还挠挠脑袋。 我找到我的衣服，一件件穿上。 我纳闷我的作业跑哪儿去啦。 我抓了个能量棒当早餐，背起书包就往学校走。 等我到了学校，直接傻眼了。 灯都关着，大门也锁着。 我看了看手表，是我搞错啦，不是人家的问题。 我醒得太早啦。 现在才凌晨四点呀。

Breakfast in Bed This morning I made my mum breakfast in bed. I tried to be careful but burnt all the bread. I tried to make sure that the coffee was hot by boiling the bit left in yesterday's pot. I charred a few pancakes, potatoes and beans, the sausage I toasted to wee smithereens. I made her some muffins like miniature coals and roasted a package of cinnamon rolls.

床上的早餐 今天我给妈妈做了份可以端到床上吃的早餐。 我已经很小心啦，可还是把所有面包都烤糊了。 我想把咖啡弄热，就把昨天壶里剩的那点咖啡煮开了。 我烤焦了几张松饼、土豆和豆子，香肠更是被我烤得碎成了小渣。 我给她做的玛芬看着像小煤块，还烤了一包肉桂卷。

I scorched several servings of hamburger hash and microwaved bacon until it was ash. I blackened a bagel, which started to smoke. The smoke alarm sounded. My mother awoke. I think she was panicked, her eyes filled with dread. I proudly presented her breakfast in bed. She grimaced, then silently counted to ten, and asked me to never make breakfast again.

我烤糊了好几份汉堡碎，培根放微波炉里转得都成灰了。 我把贝果烤得黑乎乎的，都冒烟了。 烟雾报警器响了起来。 妈妈被吵醒了。 我觉得她吓坏了，眼睛里满是惊恐。 我骄傲地把这份床上早餐递到她面前。 她做了个鬼脸，默默数到十，然后告诉我以后再也不用我做早餐了。

I don't know what to do today. I don't know what to do today. Perhaps I'll go outside and play, or stay indoors and watch TV, or take a bath, or climb a tree. Or maybe I'll go ride my bike, or bounce a ball, or take a hike, or jump a rope, or scratch my head, or play a game, or stay in bed, or dance a jig, or pet the cat, or drink some milk, or buy a hat, or sing a song, or read a book, or change my socks, or learn to cook, or dig a hole, or eat a pear, or call my friends, or brush my hair, or hold my breath, or have a race, or draw a picture on my face.

我不知道今天该做什么。 我不知道今天该做什么呀。 或许我可以出门去玩，要么待在家里看电视，要么洗个澡，要么爬棵树。 又或者我可以骑我的自行车，拍球，远足，跳绳，挠挠头，玩游戏，赖在床上，跳个快步舞，摸摸小猫，喝点牛奶，买顶帽子，唱首歌，读本书， 要么换袜子，学做饭，挖个坑，吃个梨，给朋友打电话，梳头发，憋憋气，赛个跑，在我脸上画个画。

I'm so confused and bored and blue and can't decide what I should do. I guess that I should just ask you. So what do you think I should do?

我好迷茫，好无聊，好难过，根本决定不了该做什么。 我觉得我该问问你。 你觉得我该做什么呀？
