You're obsessed. 你還真入迷耶。
要是你遇到有人對某件事情相當沈迷、像是一頭栽進去時，就可以說You're obsessed.，其中obsessed即指「著迷的，一心一意的」，常以someone be obsessed with something來表示「某人著迷於某事」。
We're Getting Old！-5 青年更年期
Billy: This book is awesome. It teaches you to accept aging.
Jennifer: But it still helps you to try to live longer and disease-free.
Billy: The books tells you to not worry about your aging looks, but I do want to try some treatments.
Jennifer: Well, you might get your teeth whitened.
Billy: What's wrong with my teeth?
Jennifer: Um, they're 1)brownish-yellow. They didn't use to be.
Billy: [Looking in mirror] Oh, no! You're right. I have to buy whitening strips now.
Jennifer: I use them once a year. How else do you think my teeth get so white?
比利：這本書真讚。它教妳接受老化的事實。
珍妮花：但它也幫助你試著活得更久及免除病痛。
比利：書中說不要擔心老化的外表，但我確實很想嘗試一些療法。
珍妮花：嗯，或許你可以讓牙齒潔白一些。
比利：我的牙齒怎麼了嗎？
珍妮花：呃，你的牙齒黃黃的。以前不是這樣。
比利：（照鏡子）噢，不可以！妳說得對，我現在得買美白貼片了。
珍妮花：我一年用一次。不然你認為我的牙齒怎麼會這麼白？
1)brownish-yellow (a.) 褐黃色的。brownish是「略帶褐色的」

How to Develop Your Writing Skills (part 5 of 6)
英文寫作技巧 (六段中的第五段)
•Ban bland writing—Good writing tastes good. Use variety in style and word choice to add “spice” to your writing.
To improve your writing, you need feedback. If you ask a friend or teacher to read your writing, however, don't ask him or her to “correct all the mistakes in your paper.”
Just ask the reader to help you identify your strong and weak areas.
•避免寫索然無味的事——好的文章是很有味道的。在寫作時，變化一下風格和措辭，可以使文章生色不少。
想要改進寫作，你需要有人給你意見。但是，如果你請朋友或老師讀你的文章，不要叫他們幫你「改正文章裡所有的錯誤」。只要請讀的人為你指出優缺點即可。
