Everyone in the world strives to be beautiful.  They'd want to keep young forever, if, possible. 

世上的人都為了美麗而奮鬥,如果可能,他們都要青春永駐。

Contest Master, Ladies and Gentlemen,

One thing I do every morning is to look at Audrey Hepburn's picture and make my small eyes as big as hers.  Using eyeliner and double-eyelid stickers, I would put them, layer by layer, to create the illusion of big eyes.
比賽主席、各位先生女士:
我每天早晨必做的一件事就是看著奧黛
˙赫本的照片,藉著劃上一層層的眼線及貼上雙層眼皮貼紙,企圖營造出像奧黛莉˙赫本般的大眼睛。

My friend, Katherine's eyes were also very small, that was why we became friends.  Before the Chinese new year, I thought she looked different: her skin was shining, and her eyes were twice as big!
我朋友凱薩琳也是小眼睛,因此我們成了好朋友。春節前我注意到她變了,她的皮膚她的眼睛變大了!

So I asked her: “What did you do?”
She replied. “It's plastic.”
“No way!  You did it?  Tell me all about it!”

Ladies and gentlemen, do you want to know?
I bet you do. 
我問她:「妳做了什麼?」
她答道:「整型」

「不可能!妳真的去整型了?快告訴我詳情!」

各位女士先生,你想知道嗎?
我賭你想知道。


So, other than the double eyelid surgery, she had Botox injections and laser to help lift her face and eliminate pores and spots.
不同於雙眼皮手術,她去注射Botox拉皮及雷射除斑
eliminate
排除,消除,消滅    pores毛孔;氣孔;細孔    spots疤;痣;丘疹;瘡

I was amazed.

Then she gave me the contact of the doctor.
I said, “No thanks, I don't need this.”

And she said, “Of course you do, Honey!  Everyone does! 
Keep young and beautiful. (Singing in Jazz style)
It's your duty to be beautiful!
Keep young and beautiful,
If you what to be loved.
 
我非常的吃驚。

接著她給了我醫生的聯絡方式
我說:「謝了!我不需要」
她說:「寶貝!妳當然需要,人人都需要,保持青春美麗(
Singing in Jazz style),美麗是你的責任,想要被愛-保持青春美麗」

 

That night I went back home; I looked at the beautiful young Hepburn and myself in the mirror.  The scientists are right.  After age 25, everything goes down: our eyes go down, cheeks go down, and…everything goes down, except, our age.
那晚我回到家,我注視著年輕漂亮的赫本及鏡中的我,科學家說的對,25歲以後,萬事皆下垂,眼皮下垂、臉頰下垂...什麼都下垂除了年齡。
 

I didn't tell Katherine the truth when I said: I don't need this.  Deep inside, I am as desperate as any other woman to keep young and beautiful.  If I can have the big charming eyes of Audrey Hepburn, my life will be different, and I can get any man, I mean, anything I want!  Right away, I picked up the phone, dialed the number and made the appointment. 
當我對凱薩琳說我不需要時,我沒說真話,我跟大多數女人一樣,拼命的要永保青春美麗,如果我能有個像奧黛麗
˙赫本般大又迷人的眼睛,我的人生將是大大的不同,我可以擁有每一個男人...我是說,我可以擁有我要的一切。我立刻拿起電話,撥了號碼預約了門診。
 

That very morning, I entered that small clinic.  After telling the doctor my requirement, he gave me a quick look and said:

“Your eyes are not too small.”
“Really?!” I was flattered.

“But your face is too big.”
“See, your cheeks are too wide, lips are too thick, and nose's too flat.  If your face gets smaller, your eyes will look bigger.”

That was the most honest evaluation I have ever received. 
當天,我走進了診所,告訴醫生我的需求後,醫生很快的看了一下說:

「妳的眼睛不小啊!」

「真的嗎?」我真是受寵若驚。

「可是妳的臉太大了!」
「妳看看,妳的臉頰太寬、嘴唇太厚、鼻子太塌,如果把臉縮小一點,看起來會順多了!」

這真是我收到前所未有最真的講評。
 

Although he wasn't good at evaluation, he was certainly persuasive:

Don't worry, we can fix that problem and make you look ten years younger.  Now choose whatever you desire: eyes, lips, noses, Korean, Hong Kong, or Hollywood; we can make you a 3-D face in just one hour and 40 minutes,

Plus, we now offer a special discount for the full package service.  Only 50,000 dollars.   

You mean, within one hour and 40 minutes and 50,000 dollars, I can get big eyes, a 3-D face, and look 10 years younger?!

Check, please.  I booked the surgery the very next day! 

Now, to be or not be, that is no longer a question.  With money and modern technology, beauty can last FOREVER!  

That night, I relaxed myself and watched a movie; an old actress looked very familiar.  At the end of the movie I saw her name: Audrey Hepburn.  That….that can't be her!  She's the incarnation of perfection!  She can't be that wrinkle-faced old woman.  Why?  Why didn't you do something to save your beauty?  

With the question still in my mind, next day, I went to the clinic for surgery.  As I lay on the operating table, the headlight cast on my face, and shone on my doubts.  Somehow, I knew, I was going to be different.

Keep young and beautiful, If you want to be loved.  

I didn't have the surgery.  The doctor asked me, why.
“I saw her, Audrey Hepburn, not the young one, but the old one.  She showed me the answer that I wasn't able to understand.”   

In Audrey's later years, she devoted herself to helping children all over the world.  She spent all her time and money to help improve the lives of the poor and the needy families.  She didn't try to preserve the beauty on her own face; rather, she passed it on to every single young face she touched.  

I'm still wearing the same big face and same small eyes, but something is different--here.  I no longer need that full package service since I have learned the secret.   No matter how hard we try to preserve our youth, someday it will fade.  The only way to stay young forever is not to keep it in ourselves but to pass it on to those who live after us.  Just last month, through the World Vision, I adopted a seven-year-old boy; his name is Gabriel; and he loves football very much.  Ladies and gentlemen, I may start from a little, but I know this little beauty is going to make a difference.     

Whether you have started spreading your beauty, from Audrey Hepburn, I now deliver to you this full package of secrets, for free.  May we all have her courage and wisdom to seek this eternal beauty and pass it on to the later generations, so that we may live forever young and beautiful.
