PE 12/3 Baz Luhrmann's Speech - Part 1

The long-term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience.
* long-term: with consideration for a future time
ex> My long-term plans are to learn French and become a winemaker.
* meandering: 종잡을 수 없는

Oh, never mind.
* never mind: don't worry or think about something
ex> Never mind the noise coming from the engine, it's just an old car.

You will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they've faded.

In 20 years, you'll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can't grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked.
* recall: to remember something
ex> I recall you saying something about buying me lunch today.

The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind, the kind that blindside you at 4 pm. on some idle Tuesday.
* cross one's mind: to have a thought suddenly occur to you
ex> It never crossed my mind that you and James were brothers, despite having the same last name.
* blindside/be blindsided: to strike or be struck suddenly and without warning
ex> Bill was blindsided by love when he met Elaine for the first time.
ex> Just when it seemed life was going well, she was blindsided by a devastating illness.
