7.Melinda自白:我是一个曾经shy(腼腆的)、不喜欢冲突争拗的人、一个drama geek

(drama geek,后面我要详细解释解释)
①我以前是一个比较腼腆的人,所以我觉得人生的终极挑战就是表演音乐喜剧,因为那要让最后一排的人听见你的声音,所以声音要够大,而且要运用自己的身体来表演。
According to Clarke, she used to be quite shy, but not anymore. “I am one of
those people who thinks the ultimate thing in life is doing a musical comedy
because you have to sing out,” she explains. “You have to be big enough so that
people can hear you in the back row, and you are using your whole body. I did
musical comedies a lot as a kid.” She continues,“I have no fear as far as making a fool of myself, and the character I play on The O.C. is a part of that.
②不同于Julie Cooper的是,我是一个敏感的人,过于关心别人是怎么想的,因为我喜欢和睦的关系,不喜欢冲突。
Unlike Julie Cooper, however, I am much more sensitive and care too much about what people think. I like my relationships to be harmonious. I don’t like conflict
③尽管如此,我并不在乎别人是不是觉得我silly。前不久,我的高中同学让我想起来,我是本质“Drama Geek”

but that being said, I don’t care if people think I am silly or goofy.
I am probably just essentially a drama geek. That is what my high school friend
reminded me of the other day.”
【Drama Geek】
大概是说学校里的交际焦点(center of social calendar),在学校很cool,大声说话,很随意,知道很多笑话have inside jokes,像生活大爆炸里面的谢耳朵也是叫geek,但是drama geek不会像其他geek那样不合群(恰恰相反)。。。。。
在我理解起来,就是那种能玩,又很有趣的人,虽然会有点浮夸,有点傻x

,但是很能活跃气氛。
