I vowed2 to myself that I would be in a good mood tonight and not ruin Angela's or Jessica's enjoyment3 in the dress hunting. 我向自己发誓，我今晚要过得非常愉快，而且不能在扫货的时候让安吉拉或者杰西卡扫兴。

Surely he wouldn't cancel without at least telling me. 当然，他不会单方面地取消约定的，至少会告诉我一声。
After school, Jessica followed me home in her old white Mercury4 so that I could ditch my books and truck. 放学后，杰西卡开着她老掉牙的白色水星跟着我回家，这样我就能把书和车扔在家里。
I brushed through my hair quickly when I was inside, feeling a slight lift of excitement as I contemplated5 getting out of Forks. 当我在屋里的时候，我飞快地刷了几下头发。一想到能逃离福克斯，我就感到一阵轻微的亢奋。
I left a note for Charlie on the table, explaining again where to find dinner, 我在桌上给查理留了张纸条，再次告诉他在哪里可以找到他的晚饭，
switched my scruffy6 wallet from my school bag to a purse I rarely used, and ran out to join Jessica. 然后从我的书包里取出那个破旧的钱夹，把里面的东西都转到一只我很少用的钱包里，然后跑出去找杰西卡。
We went to Angela's house next, and she was waiting for us. 接下来我们去了安吉拉家，她正等着我们。
My excitement increased exponentially as we actually drove out of the town limits. 当我们真的开出小镇的范围时，我的兴奋开始以指数形式增长。
