　　大家都說30歲對于女性來說是一個非常恐怖的分水嶺，那么三十歲的女性，又應該學會哪些人生道理，讓自己活得更加優雅自然笑對生活呢?三十歲女人應該學會的7堂人生課：

　　A proper quarterlife crisis involves a certain amount of disillusionment, ennui, boredom, fear, anxiety, and growing pains. But those terrifying sounding emotions are the ones that get all the press—how about giving that “growing” some props for once?

　　25歲以后，幾乎每個人都會經歷自我懷疑、情緒不穩、迷茫未來的階段，這叫做1/4生命危機癥候群。1/4生命危機表現為心理的幻滅感，對生活感到倦怠、無聊、恐懼和焦慮的一系列成長煩惱。但正是這些聽起來可怕的情緒問題帶來了所有的壓力：我們如何才能為這些成長煩惱找到情緒支撐和慰藉呢?

　　You Know What Friendship Is

　　友情到底是什么

　　In high school or college, friendship was mostly a matter of geography—who you had classes with or who lived down the hall or joined the same club. Out in the real world for a while, you’ve learned that real friendship is made of tougher and—and dare we say it—better stuff. (Although just wait until you’re in your thirties and everyone’s getting married and having kids…that’s when the real test comes.)

　　在高中或者大學時代，友情其實就是建立在地域之上的：和你一起上課，和你同宿舍，或一起參加了某個社團。而在社會上，你會發現友情的建立會更加困難，甚至會更加物質化。(等你到了30歲，結了婚有了孩子，這才是真正考驗友情的時候。)

　　Sunscreen Is Important

　　防曬霜很重要

　　Right around age twenty-five, you start to be able to tell who wears sunscreen and who’s a sun-worshipper—the sunscreeners still have dewy, youthful skin, while the tanners have the beginnings of crows-feet and brown spots. Which group do you want to be in?

　　當你到了25歲左右，你開始能分辨誰擦了防曬霜，誰愛曬太陽了。擦了防曬霜的女人都有一臉水嫩年輕肌膚，而那些愛把皮膚曬成棕褐色的人臉上就開始魚尾紋和雀斑橫生了。你會加入到哪個隊列中去呢?
