First episode "A foolish guy part 2"
高校を卒業して、オレはシズオカの工場へ一年半の出稼ぎに出た。
After graduation high school, I work away to Shizuoka factory which makes air conditioners.
金を貯め、車の免許と車を買うためだったのだが、オレは出稼ぎから戻ってきたときに何を血迷ったのか、その金で大学へ行くことを決心した。
This work was for saving money to buy a car and to get car license though I decided to go to collage with the money.
*note: Japanese car license is expensive. you need around 250,000 yen to get it.
I don't know why I ran mad and decided it.
成績通知票を見る限り、オレは学校でいくらでも眠れることくらいしか自慢することのない、札付きのバカだった。
Because I was Mr,BAKA who hadn't boastfulness except being able to sleep too much in the high school class.
高校の内申平均2.2。
My average grade was next to the worst, 2,2.
*1 was the worst.
記憶が確かなら、内申平均1.9以下なら卒業できなかったはずだ。
If my memory is right and I've gotten under 1.9 , I couldn't have graduated.
だけど、根拠はないが、ちょっと勉強したら、そこらの金持ち坊やどもをゴボウ抜きできると信じていた。
I believed I could overtake rich shit babies (persons who aim to go to collage ) if I study a little bit. Though I didn't have premise to be able to overtake them at all.
(当時オレは、勉強できるヤツ=塾に通える資金がある=金持ちの甘ちゃん、だと思っていた。いや、今でもそう思う)
At that point, I thought person who are good at studying = person who has money to go to private school or hire a tutor = rich spoiled child. No, I think it even now.
そして、大嫌いなゴボウどもを抜いた。
And then, I overtook them who I hate.

First Episode: "A Foolish Guy, Part 2" [Use capital letters in titles]
After graduating from high school, I went away to work at a factory in Shizuoka which makes air conditioners.
I was working to save money to buy a car and to get car license. However, I decided to go to college with the money. ["However, I decided to use the money to go to college instead."]
*Note: A Japanese car license is expensive. ["In Japan, car licenses are expensive."]
You need around 250,000 yen to get one. ["It costs around 250,000 yen to get one."]
I don't know why, but I decided to go for it. ["I ran mad" or "I went mad" doesn't really make sense here]
I was Mr. BAKA who had nothing to boast about, except being able to sleep too much during my high school class. ["...except of sleeping constantly during my high school classes."]
My average grade was nearly the worst, 2.2.
If I remember correctly, I couldn't have graduated if I had got under 1.9.
I believed that if I studied hard enough, I could overtake rich shit babies (people who aim to go to college), although I had no basis for this belief.
Though I didn't have premise to be able to overtake them at all.
At that point, I thought people who are good at studying = people who have money to go to private school or hire a tutor = rich spoiled children. [" = rich spoiled kids."]
No, I think it even now. ["Actually, I think so even now."]
And then, I overtook all those that I hate.
Good luck with your university studies!
In case I'm not a student and this story is fiction but like a novel. =D
