Blow you away!

Something that will really impress you!

Taste of your own medicine

To be treated the same way that you treat others

Bite off more than you can chew

When something too difficult for you

Chip on your shoulder

You're angry about something that happened in the past

down to the wire

When the game is not settled until the very last second

every cloud has a silver lining

Believe that things will get better

rags to riches

To go from being very poor to very rich!

gut feeling

An instinct about how something will happen

it's in the bag

When you're sure you have secured something

Don't judge a book by its cover

Don't judge something just by its appearance

under the weather

Not feeling well

until the cows come home

for a very long while

the last straw

you can't take anymore!!

something smells fishy

when you can tell something is wrong
