玛丽娜现在仍是个浪漫的人,她还没有陷入消极的精神状态 -- 那是一种认为一个人必须找一个角落活着,不管哪儿,然后一生就回绕着那个角落的的精神状态。

她是一個非常嬌小的女孩,但她真的自己抱著中音薩克斯。不過,我忍不住想像這個東西纏繞包裹住她,並像蟒蛇般的吞噬她。

She was a tiny girl, but she really held her own on the baritone sax. Nonetheless, I couldn't help but imagine the thing wrapping itself around her and devouring her like a boa constrictor.
