低落 dīluò low-spirited
莫过于 mòguòyú nothing more than
企及 qǐjí to strive for; to hope for
绝望 juéwàng despair
亲爱哒，今天情绪大大地低落，不知道是不是因为听了太多“鸡汤”故事的缘故。都说人最大的悲哀莫过于常怀能力无法企及的欲望，唉……
qīnàidā ，jīntiān qíngxù dàdà de dīluò ，bù zhīdào shìbushì yīnwèi tīng le tài duō “jītāng ”gùshi de yuángù 。dōu shuō rén zuìdà de bēiāi mòguòyú cháng huái nénglì wúfǎ qìjí de yùwàng ，ài ……
Bae, today my mood took a nosedive, I don't know if it's because I've heard too many "chicken-soup-for-the-soul" stories. They all say that the biggest tragedy for humans is that they often have ambitions that lie beyond their abilities, ah...
嗯，别担心，有时候不努力一下，你都不知道什么叫绝望，好吧，据不完全统计，你每个月总有那么几天情绪大大地失控。应该正在周期内吧？
ng4 ，bié dānxīn ，yǒushíhou bù nǔlì yīxià ，nǐ dōu bù zhīdào shénme jiào juéwàng ，hǎoba ，jù bù wánquán tǒngjì ，nǐ měi ge yuè zǒng yǒu nàme jǐtiān qíngxù dàdà de shīkòng 。yīnggāi zhèngzài zhōuqī nèi ba ？
Yeah, don't worry. If you don't ever try, you won't know what despair is. OK, according to incomplete data, you always have those few days a month in which you lose control of your emotions big time. You must be on your period, no?
我要“小确幸”，不要“小确丧”毒鸡汤！不过你怎么知道，这个月我好像都不露声色吧，低调地发着光。
wǒ yào “xiǎoquèxìng ”，bù yào “xiǎoquèsāng ”dú jītāng ！bùguò nǐ zěnme zhīdào ，zhè ge yuè wǒ hǎoxiàng dōu bù lù shēngsè ba ，dīdiào de fā zhe guāng 。
I want "small pleasures", not toxic chicken soup laced with "small feelings of despair"! But how did you know? I don't feel like I've shown my feelings this month, and have just been shining my light on the down low.
是，这个月是有点奇怪，眼瞅着都快过去了，还没见你歇斯底里地多愁善感，或者火冒三丈地哭天抢地。
shì ，zhè ge yuè shì yǒudiǎnr qíguài ，yǎnchǒuzhe dōu kuài guòqù le ，hái méi jiàn nǐ xiēsīdǐlǐ de duōchóushàngǎn ，huò zhě huǒmàosānzhàng de kūtiānqiǎngdì 。
Yes, this month you've been a bit strange. It'll all be over in the blink of an eye, I still haven't seen you in hysteric fits of melancholy, or crying and making a fuss in fits of anger.
