It seemed like a good idea. You two ended months ago, and on good terms

明明不是什麼壞主意啊，而且和平分手都幾個月了

She even told you about her new boyfriend!

她甚至還跟你介紹她新男友了

But still, you didn't think it would sting this much

可是，你卻沒料到自己還會這麼有感覺

Look at him. Home owner, entrepreneur,

看看他，有房、又是企業家

food connoisseur, all the '-eurs'!

美食鑑賞家..一堆 "家" ！

He's a self-made man! He even made you this drink, something de fleur?

他根本什麼都會嘛！連飲料都親手幫你調，叫什麼..紅酒？

Ugh, another '-eur'

哀..又是高級貨

Even you have to admit

就連你也得承認

What a catch!

真是個人生勝利組

He's got his life together, like a real adult

他活得充實，像個真正成熟的男人一樣

My god!

天啊！

Is that a simple human trash can?

那該不會是 【甘丹郎】 垃圾桶吧？

Those things are like super fancy

那東西超奢華的

Charlie might as well be the personification of a simple human trashcan

Charlie他根本就是那個垃圾桶的真人版

Elegant,

優雅

classy,

有格調

stainless-steel

不鏽鋼打造

And what are you?

那你自己呢？

Oh my god, what is that?

我的媽呀..這什麼鬼？！

That can't be your trashcan!

這該不會是你的垃圾桶吧！

You've been using the same one ever since you moved into college but you never realized it got this bad

從上大學一直用到現在，你根本想都沒想過它會這麼糟

Was that stain always there?

那個污漬在那裏多久了啊..

Was that stain always there? Your place is a mess; no your life is a mess

還有那個咧？你的公寓真是一團亂不，你的人生根本也是一團亂

You're late on rent

房租還沒繳

Your voicemail is full

語音信箱裡滿滿的未讀留言

Your food's expired

食物過期的過期

Your style's expired

更別提一身的過時打扮

Who knew holding on to all this stuff would actually show how much you let yourself go?

誰知道，也許維持現況代表的只是你一直在放縱自己

Maybe that's why I should let you go

也許這就是為什麼我該放你走了

And who could blame her? There's no one to blame but yourself, you've been living like a twenty-one-year-old for nine years

能怪她嗎？你只能怪你自己這九年來一直活得像個二十出頭的社會新鮮人

Time to grow the fuck up

該讓自己振作起來了

First things first,

首先

Finances. Rent, utilities, insurance

經濟

What the hell is credit, and why is everyone telling me it's so low?

房租、水電、保險

Hey, hundred is perfect.

"信用評分"是什麼？為什麼大家都說我分數很低？

Not when it's out of 850

嘿，一百元耶！還行啊

Oh god.

看清楚，總價850..

You need to get your money in check. Hell, your checks aren't even in check. Learn how to budget and stick with it

要命

Because if you spend more then you need to earn more. You want to earn more…

你必須做好財務掌控天啊..你連自己的支票都管不好

you need a better job

學習設定預算並且遵守它

But wait, as you sift through job listing after job listing

因為當你花得多，就必須賺更多你想賺更多..

you realize all this effort you're putting in is toward a position you don't even care about

就需要更好的工作

That's when it hits you: you don't just need a job, you need to start your...

等等，正當你翻閱一個又一個職業清單

career

你發現，這正把自己推向一個你壓根不在乎的職位

For the first time since your dorm spicy wing challenge in college, you're building yourself toward a single goal

當頭棒喝一般，你明白自己需要的已經不只是一份工作而是..

Sure that might mean starting off at the bottom rung, but at least it's on a ladder you want to climb

一項職業生涯

Assuming someone hires you.

這是你這輩子以來，除了大學某次辣雞翅大胃王比賽外

"They'll see you now, are you ready?"

第一次幫自己設下目標

Are you?

當然，這意味你必須白手起家不過至少是在一條自己嚮往的道路上

You think you are

前提是你被雇用了

You've updated your very short resume, cleaned yourself up, put on a tie

輪到你囉，準備好了嗎？

But, you have no interview skills and that's okay you'll do better...

你真的準備好了嗎？

...next time

你認為是的

...and the next time

更新了空到不能再空的簡歷、打理好儀容、打了領帶

...and the next time

但，面試技巧有待加強沒關係，下次會更好的！

and then, one sticks!

下次。

"See you Monday"

再下次。

Congratulations!

然後在下次..

You're employed!

然後，機會來了！

You finally convinced someone to give you a chance

下週一見！

They liked you on paper and now it's time to play the part

恭喜你！

You should probably look the part too

你被雇用了！

"I am so sorry, oh sh..."

你終於成功說服別人給自己一個機會

Don't worry, you won't be needing that shirt anymore

他們喜歡你的履歷，而現在該是你展現的時候了

It's true!

也許穿著上也可以展現一下

The clothes don't make the man, the man makes the clothes

我真的很抱歉，天啊..

But it doesn't hurt to update your wardrobe to this decade, and your haircut!

別擔心，反正你也該換一件了

Read a fashion article here and there, learn the basics

(外在形象)

"My belt and dress shoes have to match?"

真的！

Yep!

雖然說人不可貌相

What else do you not know?

但也該更新一下自己的打扮了吧還有你的髮型！

The proper way to squat

偶爾看看時尚專欄，學些基礎

The difference between a dumbbell and a kettlebell

皮帶跟皮鞋還要搭喔？！

The fact that getting that sexy bod isn't just about exercise but also about...

對滴~

...your diet!

還有什麼該學的？

You can't rely solely on your metabolism to take care of that 4 a.m.

深蹲的正確姿勢

breakfast burrito anymore

啞鈴跟壺鈴的差別

And let's face it, five years of pizza rolls and dino nuggets has taken its toll on you

想讓自己變帥不是只靠運動，還要..

But eating healthy can still taste good and it'll even save you money

控制飲食！

You might actually start enjoying vegetables!

光是新陳代謝已經不足以負擔你凌晨四點鐘吃的捲餅了

Guess your mom was always right

而且說真的，這五年來累積的披薩捲和雞塊對你的身體已經造成負擔

But now that you're cooking,

但吃得健康依然可以享受美味又省錢

working out,

你甚至可能還會愛上吃蔬菜

and starting a new job,

你媽說的果然沒錯

time becomes more valuable so you start setting a schedule and sticking to it

但現在的你開始烹飪

No more flaking, you make time for work, your friends and most importantly...

健身

...your family

嘗試新工作

Don't worry, you can also set aside time, to do nothing

時間變得更加寶貴，於是你開始建立行程表並跟隨腳步

Ultimately, you start to see how important it is to plan things out

不再落後你挪出時間工作、陪伴朋友，還有最重要的..

"Hey, Drew!"

陪伴家人

"Hey!"

不要忘記吃水果喔！

"What are you doing here man?"

別擔心，你還是可以有放空的時間

"What's up Carl, hey Jen!

最終，你開始明白事先計畫的重要性

Just hanging out, what about you?"

嘿 Drew！

"My friend wanted to try this cafe, this is Nancy"

嘿！

"Hi I'm-"

你怎麼在這？

"Drew!"

Carl你最近好嗎？ 嘿Jen！

"Yeah, we actually used to work on the same floor!"

隨便晃晃啊，你呢？

"Really?"

我朋友想來喝喝看這家咖啡，這位是Nancy

"Wait, are you...?"

嗨！我是--

"Yep!"

Drew！

"I spilled coffee on this guy the day he got hired."

我知道啊，以前我們辦公室在同一層樓

"Wow, small world!"

真假？

And that some things, you never see coming

等等你該不會是..？

But first...

沒錯！

...you gotta learn car maintenance

他第一天來公司就被我不小心潑了一身咖啡

"Cars have gaskets?"

哇，真巧

and...

人生，世事難料

...house maintenance

但首先

"Sinks have gaskets?"

你必須學會保養車子

You're independent in so many other aspects of your life

汽車有墊片？!

You should be able to fix a sink!

還有..

"Uh-oh."

住家保養

Or at least know who to call to do it right

水槽有墊片？！

The trained professional tells you that it's better

你的獨立自主，就生命中各種面相而言

to buy a more expensive gasket, than replacing a cheap one three times

應該足以應付修理一個小小的水槽吧？

Quality has meaning now

呃喔..

So you start looking around your apartment!

至少你知道該找誰幫忙

What else should you invest in?

專業人員告訴你

Better furniture,

與其一再用便宜貨替換，還不如買個貴一點的墊片

better cookware,

品質更重要

better...

於是你開始環顧自己的公寓

You can't help but chuckle

還有什麼該代換的？

With all the upgrades you've made in your life, and all the adulting you've done

更好的家具

there's one thing you almost forgot about!

更好的廚具

It's the same one Charlie had

或是更好的..

You almost forgot about him and all his '-eurs'

你不禁一笑

You almost forgot about the build statements,

在對人生所做的一切更新，還有自己的成長中，

countless interviews,

唯獨一樣東西你差點忘了

number of squats,

跟Charlie的一模一樣

and faulty faucets that led you here

你幾乎忘了他，還有所有他背後了不起的名號

Because you realize becoming an adult...

你幾乎忘了那些帳單

isn't about eating kale or making a lot of money or buying new clothes

無數次的面試

Becoming an adult is about taking control of your life

無數次的深蹲

and living up to your full potential

以及那個導致你出現在這的壞掉水龍頭

"Hey! Ready to go hun?"

因為你明白成為一個成熟的男人

"Oh, uh... yeah!"

不單單只是多吃生菜、變得富有或買新的衣服

Hey everyone! Hope you guys enjoyed that

一個成熟的男人會掌控自己的人生

Adulting is a topic that we've been wanting to make a video about for a very long time
