Hey, Matt, how's it going?

一般般吧。我下学期的住宿出了问题,必须马上做出决定。
What's going on?
怎么了?
Well, I lived in the dormitory,
我之前一直住在学校宿舍,
and I've got a great roommate for the last two year, but he's moving off campus next semester.
而且我的舍友超级棒,我们一起住了两年了,可是下学期他就要搬到校外去住了。
Oh! So?
哦!所以呢?
So now I have to make a big decision. You know, about my living arrangements.
所以我得做一项重大决定。就是关于我的住宿安排方面的决定。
Well, couldn't you just get a new roommate?
嗯...你不能直接找个新舍友吗?
Doesn't the university automatically assign someone to take his place?
学校不是会自动给你分配个新舍友代替他吗?
Yeah, they do. The thing is, I am concerned about sharing a room with somebody new.
没错,他们是会这么做。问题是,我很担心要和一个陌生人共用一个房间。
There could be problems, like, what if he wanted to go to sleep at ten o'clock?
会出现很多问题的。比如说万一他想十点钟睡觉怎么办?
I am used to studying late at night and that would throw off my whole study schedule.
我已经习惯熬夜学习了,那样的话我整个学习计划就被打乱了。
I guess that's possible.

But it is convenient to be on campus, easy to get to class and all.

What else could you do?

我舍友跟其他一些朋友在校外找到了一栋房子,他们那儿还有一间空房。
I could have it, but I have to let them know by the end of the week.
我可以住那间房,不过我必须得在本周末之前告诉他们。
A house sounds like a good idea. It'd be fun to live with a group of people.
一栋房子听起来不错啊。跟一群人住在一起会很有趣的。
True, and it would definitely be economical with everyone splitting the rent,
没错,而且大家一起分摊房租的话肯定也很便宜,
but it's just that this house is really far from campus.
只不过这栋房子离学校真的很远。
I'd have to wake up much earlier to get to class.
我得起很早去上课。
It'd just be a lot more inconvenient than living in the dorm.
跟住在宿舍比真是太不方便了。
