Sample Sentences

是,这个月是有点奇怪,眼瞅着都快过去了,还没见你歇斯底里地多愁善感,或者火冒三丈地哭天抢地。
shì ,zhè ge yuè shì yǒudiǎnr qíguài ,yǎnchǒuzhe dōu kuài guòqù le ,hái méi jiàn nǐ xiēsīdǐlǐ de duōchóushàngǎn ,huò zhě huǒmàosānzhàng de kūtiānqiǎngdì 。
Yes, this month you've been a bit strange. It'll all be over in the blink of an eye, I still haven't seen you in hysteric fits of melancholy, or crying and making a fuss in fits of anger.
你呀,哪来那么多愁善感。人生在世哪有一帆风顺没有挫折的,就像心电图啊,高低起伏才说明有活力。老人不是常说,“得之我幸,失之我命”,看开点儿,得失心别那么重,保持向上的姿态,那些烦心事就不足挂齿了。

Why so depressed? There's no such thing as a life that's all smooth sailing without any frustrations. It's like an ECG, it's only when there are ups and downs that you know you're alive. Don't old people always say, "to gain is luck, to lose is fate". Try to cheer up a bit, don't take gains and losses to heart. If you keep striving forward, your troubles aren't worth dwelling on.
