If it's easier for you, it can also be explained with permanent/not permanent
You can say "Estoy nuevo" when you came out of a good shower after a soccer match.
It's mutable stuff, one hour before you were tired ("old")

If you're saying you're new (in the forums), is permanent stuff (will change in two or three months or in some years or never , like apprentice and master)
