「身為米蘭達的初級助理，你要時時揣摩她的需求，把事情都辦好。這些事包含的範圍很廣，從幫她訂喜歡的信紙，到陪她逛街買東西，什麼事都有可能，不過不管什麼事，總之都是很有意思的。」
＜英＞ P. 17

I pushed against the turnstile, praying that this Monday would be the exception, that he’d let me pass without a performance. Negative.
“Yo, tell me what you want, what you really, really want,” he sang with his huge, toothy smile and Spanish accent. And all the pleasure of making the cabbie happy and finding out that I had arrived ahead of Miranda vanished. I was left, as I as every morning, wanting to reach across the security counter and tear the flesh from Eduardo’s face. But since I was such a good sport and he was one of my only friends in the place, I weakly acquiesced. “I’ll tell you what I want, what I really, really want, I wanna - I wanna - I wanna - I wanna- I really, really , really wanna zigga aiz aaaaaahhhh,” I sand meekly in a pitiful tribute to the Spice girls’ nineties hit. And once again, Eduardo grinned and buzzed me through.
＜中＞ P. 117 【整段漏翻】
＜英＞ P. 102 ~ 103
“Some boys kiss me, some boys hug me, I think they’re okay-ay,” Eduardo, the round and slightly sweaty security guard, began singing in a high-pitched voice from behind the security desk. ……
The day before was “I’m Too Sexy.” As he sang, “I’m too sexy for Milan, too sexy for Milan, New York and Japan,” I had to walk down the lobby’s imaginary runway. ……
“If they don’t give me proper credit, I just walk away-ay,” I muttered, allowing the words to stretch and fade, just like Madonna.
He raised his eyebrows. “Where’s the enthusiasm, girlfriend?”
I thought I’d do something violent if I heard his voice again, so I dropped my bag of papers on the counter, threw both arms up in the air and thrust my hips to the left, while pursing my lips into a dramatic pout. “A material! A material! A material! A material… WORLD!” I all but screamed, and he cackled and clapped and whoosh! He buzzed me through.
Mental note: Discuss with Eduardo when and where it is appropriate to make a complete ass of me.

我大笑起來：「是怎樣？你覺得我朋友是妓女嗎？她只是比較開放而已。她現在有沒有對象？你開什麼玩笑？！昨晚粉紅襯衫難才在她那過夜耶！但我不知道那男的名字。」
我大笑起來：「她最近跟一個粉紅襯衫男生在一起，真名我不知道，不過他昨晚在她那裡過夜。」
＜英＞ P.146
I laughed. “Go on, say it. Do you think my friend is a whore? She’s just free-spirited, is all. And is she seeing someone? What kind of question is that? Someone named Pink-Shirt Boy stayed over there last night. I don’t think I know his real name.”
