Get out of hand
Get out of control
Hang in there
Don't give up
A perfect storm
the worst possible situation
A picture is worth 1000 words
Better to show than tell
The ball is in your court
It's your decision
The devil is in the details
It looks good from a distance, but when
you look closer, there are problems
The early bird gets the worm
The first people who arrive will get
the best stuff
Costs an arm and a leg
Very expensive
Don't cry over spilt milk
There's no reason to complain about
something that can't be fixed
A stitch in time saves nine
Fix the problem now because it will get
worse later
As right as rain
perfect
No pain, no gain
You have to work for what you want
Miss the boat
It's too late
Beat around the bush
Avoiding a specific subject
Spill the beans
Tell a secret or reveal something
private
A big cheese
An important person
A couch potato
A lazy person who watches a lot of
television
Go bananas
To become crazy
Rack (one’s) Brain
To search through one’s mind
intensively
It’s not my cub of tea
It’s not the kind or style that I
generally like
I lost my train of thought
I forgot what I was going to say
In the long run
In the distance future, when
everything is finished
I’m a night owl
I’m active at night! I like staying up
late!
You snooze, you lose
You miss a great opportunity if you’re
not ready to take it when it comes
Bee’s knee’s
To describe something as super cool
and trendy
