-I am dead inside

-Let’s make you feel alive again

-Nice place you got here

-Worked for my whole life for it…  you just got to set your goals, you know?

-I can’t even set the table

-I hope this is not too hot dear

-Um, it’s ice cold

-Like your soul! Have some imagination!

Cucumbers are great for dark circles… and bath salt

-Perfect!

-Now, we got some fresh avocado. Yep, now this is your color.

-You’re right! I do feel like a zombie! Ah, that really hits the spot.

-I’ve been doing this a long time. Are you ready for the sauna?

-You guys have a sauna?

-We just upgraded it!

-Ah, steam…

-Now for the final touch… spray tan! For a natural sun kissed look. Without the damage!

-Maybe some emotional damage!

-So, are you belaxed, Emma?

PORTUGUESE TRANSLATION:

-Eu não consigo nem pôr a mesa.

-Espero que isso não esteja muito quente querida.

-Está gelado (como gelo)!

-Como sua alma! Tenha alguma imaginação!

Pepinos são ótimos para olheiras… e sal de banho

-Perfeito!

-Agora, temos um pouco de abacate fresco. Sim, agora esta é a sua cor.

-Você está certa! Eu me sinto mesmo como um zumbi! Ah, isso realmente “acerta em cheio” (é o que estou precisando).

-Eu faço (venho fazendo) isso há muito tempo. Você está pronta para a sauna?

-Vocês tem uma sauna?

-Nós acabamos de dar um upgrade nela!

-Ah, vapor ...

-Agora, para o toque final ... bronzeado spray ! Para um visual natural beijado pelo sol. Sem o dano!

-Talvez algum dano emocional!

-Então, você está “serlaxada”, Emma?

-Totalmente ... o que (quanto) você está cobrando?

-É grátis para você! Apenas limpe essa bagunça até que a mamãe chegue em casa!

VOCABULARY:

TO BELAX = a pun (trocadilho) with the word relax. Meaning you don’t have to RElax (-re meaning do sth again), because you can BElax (be in that state).

DEAD = morto, morta

ALIVE = vivo, viva

TO SET GOALS = definir metas

TO SET THE TABLE = pôr a mesa

CUCUMBER = pepino

AVOCADO = abacate

DARK CIRCLES = olheiras

TO HIT THE SPOT = acertar na mosca, em cheio (no que era necessário)

TAN = bronzeado

STEAM = vapor

TO CLEAN UP = the process of both cleaning and organizing a place.
