   Good lenses, bad frames 人不可貌相


  Describing someone who gives a bad first impression but is actually a good person. Someone who doesn't appear to be competent, yet is extremely capable at what he/she does。
  形容一个给人的第一印象极差、但本质很好的人,或者指表面看不出来,实则深藏不露的高手。
  例句:Dr. Bruce is a spaz, but he's one of the best doctors I know. You wouldn't know it by looking at him...good lenses, bad frames。
  Mid-day crisis 午间危机
  When one is in a desperate need for a siesta 1 because they become extremely tired in the afternoon and coffee isn't cutting it any longer。
  指急需午睡以补充体力的情况,这种时候通常咖啡已经不管用了。

  Nearsighted Date “近视”相亲
  Asopposed to a blind date, where you have no idea what the other personlooks like, a nearsighted date is one where you've seen a photo orchatted via web before meeting in person。
  与blind date(事先一无所知的相亲)相对,指在相亲前看过对方的照片或者网聊过。
  This can often lead to disappointment if one person or the other has supplied misleading documentation。
  如果对方没有给你真实照片或提供了虚假信息,nearsighted date一样有见光死的可能。
