Hi, Li Hua, how are you? Thank you for coming to pick me up.
Oh man, I had a blast. My friends in Miami took a few days off, just to hang out with me. We did nothing but hang out on the beach and go partying every night.
I said I had a blast. "To have a blast" means to have a great time. If something was a blast, that means it was a lot of fun.
Yeah, well, I tried to get you to come along. You would've had a blast too.
Well, too bad I didn't come back a day sooner, his parties are always a blast.
Sounds like you had a blast. What about you? Li Hua, your birthday's today. Are you going to celebrate?  
Aww, whatever. I think everyone should have a blast on their birthday.
What? Lighten up, Li Hua. You're in your mid-twenties. You have plenty of time to decide what you want to do.
Hey, I'm not talking about weight here. To lighten up means to relax, to be less serious.LH: 嗨，Larry，我在这里！
LL: Hi, Li Hua, how are you? Thank you for coming to pick me up.
LH: 没事！Florida怎么样？玩得好吗？
LL: Oh man, I had a blast. My friends in Miami took a few days off, just to hang out with me. We did nothing but hang out on the beach and go partying every night.
LH: 哟，你那个在Miami的朋友还请了几天假陪你玩呀！那你肯定玩得很痛快。嗨，Larry， 你刚才说 I had a...什么来啦？
LL: I said I had a blast. "To have a blast" means to have a great time. If something was a blast, that means it was a lot of fun.
LH: Blast 不是"爆炸"的意思吗？怎么 "to have a blast" 又成了玩得特别高兴！哎哟，学英文真不容易！ 得了， Larry, 你玩得痛快，我可是花了整整一个星期帮Jones教授来准备下学期的课呢！
LL: Yeah, well, I tried to get you to come along. You would've had a blast too.
LH: 对，你是请我一起去了，但是我不能去。我得工作，要不然下学期学费哪儿来呢？不过，昨天Rick过生日，我晚上去他的party 了...
LL: Well, too bad I didn't come back a day sooner, his parties are always a blast.
LH: 对，每次Rick 开party，大家总是玩得很痛快。昨天晚上我早上三点才回家。我走的时候还有好多人在那儿呢！大家都玩疯了！
LL: Sounds like you had a blast. What about you? Li Hua, your birthday's today. Are you going to celebrate?
LH: 嗯，生日也不是什么大事嘛。我在中国的时候从来不过生日的。
LL: Aww, whatever. I think everyone should have a blast on their birthday.

LH: 唉，时间过得真快，我都已经25岁了，四分之一个世纪呐！可我还在这儿念书，还没有一个正式的工作...
LL: What? Lighten up, Li Hua. You're in your mid-twenties. You have plenty of time to decide what you want to do.
LH: 什么？你叫我lighten up? 你是说我要减轻体重？你在胡说什么吗？
LL: Hey, I'm not talking about weight here. To lighten up means to relax, to be less serious.
LH: 噢，lighten up就是要放松，不要太认真的意思！哎哟，不行，我可不能lighten up，我得考虑我的前途呐，我毕业以后干什么 - 是要回国还是呆在这儿...
