丽兹(独白):我知道那个时候我必须作出选择。我可以为自己的生活寻找任何借口,或者我可以迫使我自己...迫使我自己让生活好转。
Liz: [monologue] I knew when at that moment I had to make a choice. I could submit to everything that was happening in living life of excuses or I could push myself. I could push myself and make my life good.
Man: Hey, we'll get you by friday.
Girl: OK thank you.
Man: Oh,pleasure, guys. Elizabeth?
Liz: Liz.
Man: Liz, I'm sorry. We're making our last decisions now. I'm already late.
Liz: Can I just talk to you for just a minute? 30 sesonds?
Msn: It's the application. It's a whole big essay question, too.
Liz: I've already done the essay. I really want this. I haven't had a lot grownups improved to be trustworthy or for the long runs, so maybe I don't know how to talk to you, but ...My parents both use drugs, a lot of them. I won't go near them, but...but I guess I, kind of, lived that life style. I'm embarrassed now about how layback I've been. I mean, I've never even really been school except for the 8th grade. But...
Man: Your grades are very good in elementary school.
Liz: I used to show up last week and take the test, that's how I get promoted. I'm smart. I know I can succeed. I just... I just need the chance. I need the chance to climb out of this place I've been born in. Everyone I know just angry, tired. They're trying to survive, but I know that there's a world out there that's better. That's better developed. I wanna live in it.
Man: Why now?
Liz: My mother died of AIDS. she died a couple of months ago. It was real slap on the face. I guess I always thought that she was gonna get better and take care of me. It's pretty stupid huh? She'd never been taking care of me. I took care of her. She was my baby. But now she's gone. so ...
Man: Now it's time to take care of yourself, can you get here on time? Liz?
Liz: I'll sleep here if I have to.
Man: Ok, you're in.
Liz: But you told the others you won't know until friday.
Man: You're in.
Liz: Thank you . He just changes my life.
Woman: That's worth Miss.
Man: You just fulfill the paper work. You got your transcrips and that's just the easy stuff address, phone number. We have to have a meeting with parents or your guardian get that in. we're good to go.
