   So the other day I told you what I did over this summer. And I forgot to mention something pretty important,pretty big, I can describe it in one word, Oscar.


  昨天呢我跟大家分享了一下我的假期,然后我发现我忘了一条很重要很重要的消息 用一个词来形容呢 就是 奥斯卡
  My neighbor Oscar finally got his braces 1 off. He has perfect teeth so he only has to wear the retainer for two years, so that's good.
  我邻居osca终于把他的牙套给取下来了 他现在牙非常整齐 所以只用再戴两年的固定架就行了 对他来说是个好事
  and in addition to that, I actually agreed to host the academy awards again this year.
  另外我确实答应了再次主持奥斯卡颁奖典礼
  So...I hosted in 2007, it was fun, it was an honor,and it's a big decision,you know ,and I...I really...they called and said

  how about it this year,and I was like,ehhh,it's a big decision,and I want to think about it.
  我说 额 这是一个很重大的决定 我得需要点时间考虑考虑
  And the way I deal with big decisions is,I think a lot of people do this, I make a pros 3 and cons 5 list.
  我在做重大决定的时候一般都会列一个利弊清单 我相信很多人也都是这样的吧
  And I thought I would take you on a journey inside of my mind, which is scary, hold on.
  我本打算带你们到我得思维深处去逛一圈 可是太吓人了 先hold住
  And I though I'd read you some pros and cons from my list that I... so umm...
  我还是晒出清单 把主持奥斯卡的利弊念给大家听听好了
