卡拉:我过得很开心 。这是10年来我第一次和所有家人和朋友一起开生日派对 。
Lupe: Yeah, because since I met you, I've never been to a birthday party. I mean, we've gotten together, gone to restaurants, had a few drinks, but we've never really had a party for you.
卢佩:我认识你以来从来没参加过你的生日派对 。我们经常在一起,一起去吃饭,一起去喝酒,但是我们从来没有给你办过派对 。
Kara: I really enjoyed it. It was nice to have everybody out for it. Good food and good company.
卡拉:我很享受这个派对 。大家一起开派对的感觉很好 。有美食还有朋友的陪伴 。
Lupe: Yeah, really good food. That guacamole was the best.
卢佩:对,食物非常好吃 。最好吃的是墨西哥鳄梨酱 。
Kara: Who made that — your mom?
卡拉:那是谁做的?你妈妈吗?
Lupe: No, actually it was me.
卢佩:不是,那是我做的 。
Kara: It was you.
卡拉:是你做的 。
Lupe: Yeah, my own recipe and I know that everybody really liked it, even if nobody believed that I made it.
卢佩:对,我有自己的食谱,我知道所有人都很喜欢吃,虽然没人相信那是我做的 。
Kara: Yeah, I don't think you look like the cooking type.
卡拉:对,我觉得你看上去并不像喜欢做饭的人 。
Lupe: I'm not the cooking type but I did make guacamole.

卡拉:我很喜欢 。
Lupe: What was your favorite?
卢佩:你最喜欢哪件礼物?

卡拉:我最喜欢的?就是我需要的那个屏风 。
Lupe: That was beautiful.
卢佩:那很漂亮 。
Kara: Make my makeshift closet. And my second favorite of course, because I'm a shoe girl, would be the shoes you got me — the leopard high-heels.
卡拉:我能用那个来做个临时衣柜 。我非常喜欢鞋子,所以我第二喜欢的礼物当然就是你送我的那双豹纹高跟鞋 。
Lupe: Yeah, I was really hoping you would like because I really wanted to get those for myself and for sure they didn't have them in my size so I just decided to get them for you.
卢佩:我很希望你能喜欢那双鞋,我其实自己也很想买那双鞋的,可是没有我穿的号,所以我就买来送你了 。
Kara: And the purse I got last night from you, I'm wearing today.
卡拉:我今天带了你昨晚送我的钱包 。
Lupe: Oh, I'm so glad. I was hoping you would have enough stuff to match with it, cause you know, you don't have that much clothes or that many shoes.
卢佩:哦,我真高兴 。我希望你能有和它相配的东西,你的衣服和鞋子并没有那么多 。
Kara: Very funny, Lupe. Very funny.
卡拉:卢佩,这很有趣 。很有意思 。
Lupe: Only half your room is filled with them.
卢佩:衣服和鞋子只在你房间占据了一半的空间 。
Kara: Well, you know. What can I say. It's a habit. You're one to talk with your one hundred-fifty, two hundred pairs of shoes.
卡拉:你知道,我能说什么呢 。这是个习惯 。你就会说别人,你得有150双或者200双鞋吧 。
Lupe: I think you do beat me with the count of shoes, Kara. I think you have a few more.
卢佩:卡拉,我觉得你鞋子的数量肯定能打败我 。我想你的鞋子更多 。
Kara: Mm, I doubt it.
卡拉:我对此表示怀疑 。
Lupe: I think you are at the two hundred by now.
卢佩:我想你现在得有200双鞋了 。
Kara: Well, not there. I counted the other day. I only had about eighty.
卡拉:没有那么多 。那天我数了一下,我只有80双鞋 。
Lupe: Yeah, well you can always just use another pair, right.
卢佩:你现在又多了一双鞋 。
Kara: Right, well now I can fit eighty-one.
卡拉:好吧,现在我有81双鞋 。
