Fresh Start

Now that it’s the new year, I’ve decided to turn over a new leaf.

新年到了，我决定要翻开新的一页。

Yeah? You finally decided to wipe the slate clean?

是吗？你终于决定洗心革面了？

You got it! I have a new job, I’m living in a new city, with new friends! This is my opportunity to make some small changes in the way I live my life.

没错！我有了新工作，住在新城市，还有新朋友！这可是我抓住机会，稍微改变一下生活方式的时候了。

So what are you going to do? Take up an art class or something?

那你打算怎么做？去上个艺术班什么的？

Well, first of all, I’ve decided to stop smoking. It’s not that I’m pinching pennies or anything, it’s just that I’ve been smoking since I was sixteen, and I think it’s time to stop.

嗯，首先，我决定戒烟。倒不是为了省钱什么的，只是我从十六岁就开始抽，现在该停了。

I’m with you on that one. Anything else you’re planning on doing?

这我支持你。还有其他计划吗？

One last thing, I’ve decided to come out of the closet.

最后一件事，我决定出柜了。

It’s about time!

早就该这样了！
