同學(xué)詢問大學(xué)生活函

October 20, 2005

Hey Rob!

What’s up, dude? How are you enjoying life at that loser college you’re going to? I’m having a blast here. I’ve made a bunch of friends and we party every weekend. I’ve also met a lot of beautiful chicks. There are so many that I don’t know which one to pick.

I know you probably wish you had decided to come here for school, but everybody makes mistakes. Write me and tell me how bad it is there.

Your bud,

Brad

嘿，鮑伯!

老兄，近來好嗎?你在那所爛大學(xué)過得如何?我在這里爽斃了。我交了一大群的朋友，我們每個(gè)周末都開派對。我也遇見了許多漂亮女孩。有那么多的女孩以致我不知選哪一個(gè)較好。

我知道你可能希望要是早決定到我們學(xué)校念書就好了，但每個(gè)人都會犯錯(cuò)的嘛(作者之意乃指Rob現(xiàn)在無法像他過著開派對、泡妞的愜意生活)。寫封信過來談?wù)勀隳沁呌卸酄€吧!

老友
