A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
漂亮
Pretty

我认为我在花钱方面很精明。我仍然没有新车,我开着我那辆永远拥有的旧车。但是我在芝加哥市中心买了一栋房子。
You have to compete with others in the field. Sometimes the competition gets pretty fierce because you're competing for funds or grants to do your work, the financial work.
你必须在这个领域和别人竞争。有时候竞争会变得非常激烈,因为你要为你的工作,财务工作,争取资金或补助金。
I thought it was going to take a lot more countdowns on the pad. We actually did scrub once, but I figured we'd scrub several times since it's a pretty complicated vehicle.
我还以为要在发射台上倒计时呢。我们确实擦过一次,但我想我们应该擦几次,因为这是一个相当复杂的交通工具。
People are taken aback by a confident, pretty girl who knows what she wants in life and isn't going to let anyone get in her way. And you know what it's all about? Jealousy.
一个自信、漂亮的女孩知道自己想要什么,而且不会让任何人挡住她的路,这让人们大吃一惊。你知道这是怎么回事吗?嫉妒。
I loved playing Go Go, because the character's so extreme. And she's pretty close to my real character. Especially the fact that she liked her sword with a lot of accessories.

作为一个人,除了我已经接受了真正的朋友和支持者是谁之外,我几乎是一样的。刚开始我对新朋友不是特别友好。
Basically, I was pretty ostracized in my hometown. Me and a few other guys were the town freaks- and there were many occasions when we were dodging getting beaten up ourselves.
基本上,我在家乡是被排斥的。我和其他几个家伙都是镇上的怪胎——有很多时候我们自己也在躲避挨打。
We live in a pretty bleak time. I feel that in the air. Everything is uncertain. Everything feels like its on the precipice of some major transformation, whether we like it or not.

I've pretty much run the circle of labels and dealing with that whole kind of battle, because you're the one creating the music, but you're not the final say. That's always been hard.
我在唱片公司的圈子里跑遍了,处理过各种各样的问题,因为你是音乐的创作者,但你不是最终的拍摄者。这一直都很难。
We always feel pretty creative as far as writing songs. We write them together; we just get in a room, or on occasion in Flea's garage. We just sort of improvise, like jazz musicians.
我们总是觉得写歌很有创意。我们一起写;我们只是进入一个房间,或者偶尔进入跳蚤的车库。我们只是即兴创作,就像爵士音乐家一样。
I'm trying to be a good parent and set a good example. When I'm on the road, they don't see a lot of me. I see them every other day. It's pretty all-encompassing when I'm on the road.
我想成为一个好家长,树立一个好榜样。当我在路上的时候,他们很少看到我。我每隔一天见到他们。当我在路上的时候,它是非常包罗万象的。

Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. That's relativity.
