When I found out I got the job I really wanted, I was in ecstasy - jumping up and down, calling everyone I knew, and feeling like I was floating. The ecstasy lasted for days, and I couldn’t stop smiling. Being in ecstasy means you’re so happy and excited that you feel like you’re on top of the world.

当我发现我得到了我真正想要的工作时,我处于狂喜中——跳上跳下,给我认识的每个人打电话,感觉像在漂浮。狂喜持续了几天,我无法停止微笑。处于狂喜意味着你如此快乐和兴奋,以至于你感觉像在世界之巅。
