Art/Literary - Slang | | Swedish term or phrase: vad man nu ska med det till | A 15-year-old is under a lot of pressure from his mom to become a great dancer. His mother is driving him crazy. He's complaining to a friend. My target audience is American teenagers:
Vad ska jag göra, Stina? Jag blir galen på henne! Tänk om hon bara kunde fatta att jag är en människa, ingen jävla grej som hon kan använda. Måste göra nåt … Skulle jag kunna sluta dansa? Skulle jag palla det? Kanske har kärringen redan hunnit förstöra mej … Men jag är INTE som hon. Jag är bara jag, vem fan det nu är och vad man nu ska med det till. |
