We are getting married in a park.

My dog is the ring bearer.

I am getting married next week.

We will be traveling to niagra falls for our honeymoon.

My family hates my fiancé.

I love chickens.
I work on a farm.
I know how to drive a truck.
I eat eggs for breakfast.

We are saying I do in the central valley.

I'm getting married soon.

My wedding is coming up.

I can not wait to go to canada after our wedding.

My relatives don't like my wife.

I live on a small farm.

I grow corn.

I have a commercial license.

Omelets are what I usually have in the morning.

[Speaker 1] Hello. How are you doing today?

[Speaker 2] I am great, just finished working on the farm

[Speaker 1] Sounds great! I bet my dog would like it on a farm!

[Speaker 2] Sure would he can chase all my chickens lol

[Speaker 1] He is pretty well trained... Going to be my ring bearer next week.

[Speaker 2] Awww how sweet. That is the definition of good dog

[Speaker 1] My family agrees... Wish they would agree on my fiance too, though.

[Speaker 2] You can not help who you love. Eventually they will get over it

[Speaker 1] Have you ever been to niagra falls? That's where the honeymoon will be.

[Speaker 2] Yes I have been, it is beautiful

[Speaker 1] We are going to be married locally but travel afterwards.

[Speaker 2] Sweet. Hope you have a happy marriage

[Speaker 1] What has been your favorite travel spot?

[Speaker 2] Africa and what is yours?

[Speaker 1] I'd have to say all of the western us mountain ranges are nice...

[Speaker 2] I bet it is a lot of sights to see

I have a dog.

My favorite travel spot is the Western US Mountain Ranges.

I work on a farm.
I have chickens.
I have been to Niagra Falls.
My favorite travel spot is Africa.

[Speaker 1] Did you work on the farm today?

[Speaker 2] I did. I had to wake up early to feed the chickens and get started on plowing the fields. Do you feel prepared for your upcoming wedding?

[Speaker 1] I feel prepared, but I wish my family was on board. It devastates me that they hate my fiance.

[Speaker 2] That is very unfortunate. What doesn't your family like about your fiance?

[Speaker 1] They think she is too controlling. They are wrong about her. She just cares deeply for me.

[Speaker 2] As long as you are happy, that is all that matters! Are you excited for your honeymoon?

[Speaker 1] That's what I think and I wish my family felt the same. I am thrilled to go to Niagara Falls. I have never been there. Have you?

[Speaker 2] I have! It's very beautiful but I'd recommend taking a poncho so you can stay dry. Would Niagra Falls be the first waterfall you've been to?

[Speaker 1] Silly me, I can't believe I forgot that you have been there. I remember seeing all of your beautiful photos. I will try to take some of the waterfalls to compare to yours. This will be a first for my fiance and me!

[Speaker 2] Awesome! I hope you both enjoy it. If you are looking to take any more trips in the future, Africa has many amazing waterfalls and other great sightseeing opportunities.

[Speaker 1] I would love to go to Africa. Let's a plan a trip so you can show me around since you have been there and know the lay of the land.

[Speaker 2] That sounds great! I'd also like to check out some of the mountain ranges you've been to. What's your favorite part about the mountains?

I have a dog.

I am getting married next week. My family doesn't agree with my fiance. I am going to Niagra falls for honeymoon. My fiance cares for me. I have never been to Niagara Falls. I have never been to any waterfall before. I have not been to Africa.

I work on a farm. I have chickens.

I have been to Niagra Falls. My favorite travel spot is Africa. I have been to Africa.

[Speaker 1] I found my camera! I put it in a spot so I wouldn't forget to take it on the honeymoon.

[Speaker 2] Oh great, you'll be needing that! Are you nervous about the wedding at all?

[Speaker 1] Very. My family still doesn't agree with my fiance. But my fiance is really supportive so we are doing okay.

[Speaker 2] Thats such a shame, parents can be so difficult. Are they coming to the wedding?

[Speaker 1] I don't think they will. We will just go on with the wedding without them and go to our honeymoon.

[Speaker 2] Thats the spirit! What even is their problem with your fiancee?

[Speaker 1] His job as is not good enough for my parents. They prefer a person with common office job, stability and all.

[Speaker 2] Wow, yeah thats just childish (sorry). They shouldn't try to push their expectations on to you, its so controlling! What does your fiancee do?

[Speaker 1] He is a park ranger, working up his way up to permanent position. I know my parents care about me, but they don't even try to give him a chance.

[Speaker 2] Park Rangers is an amazing job, also healthy being outdoors, so much better for him than being a pen pusher in an office. Maybe you could meet them for a small get together when you get back from the honeymoon, try to patch things up?

[Speaker 1] Right? I tried to explain multiple times that it is a good and very competitive job, but they are really stiff about how a non-office job is not a job. I plan to talk to them again, but probably we won't make it before the wedding.

[Speaker 2] Its a very manly job! Harder physical work than wiggling a mouse around. I think they are being very ignorant if im honest. Are they often like this?


I work regular hours just like the guy next to me.

I enjoy staying in for meals.

Each month I help out at the homeless shelter.

I worked in my parents cafe.

I like to keep a routine and do the same thing everyday.

I do not like to be around people.

I need to compete with other girls.

I love reading books.

I am distrustful of people.

[Speaker 1] Hi how are you today

[Speaker 2] Hello, I am okay but I do not trust many people. How are you?

[Speaker 1] Do you enjoy to cook?

[Speaker 2] I cook the same thing every day because I do not try new stuff.

[Speaker 1] I work at a soup kitchen

[Speaker 2] I always feel like I've to compete with other women because of me not cooking.

[Speaker 1] My family own a restaurant too

[Speaker 2] That must be stressful, I have to be alone sometimes because of my anxiety.

[Speaker 1] Yeah working 9 to 5 isn't the best

[Speaker 2] I like to go to the library during that time

[Speaker 1] I wish that I could blah

[Speaker 2] Its usually quiet and stress free

[Speaker 1] Yeah way different than the kitchen I bet

[Speaker 2] Yes most definitely with my trust issues

[Speaker 1] I am very sorry to hear that blah

[Speaker 2] That's okay its just how I feel


My favorite thing to do is to go to museums.

I travel at least once a year.

I am currently listening to bach.

I love to watch the voice.

My mother stayed at home all day to raise me and my siblings.

I graduated valedictorian of my high school class.

I cannot stand salads.

I had to drop out of college to help with my grandparents.

I love to learn about art and history.

I like to visit new places whenever I can.

I like classic music.

Reality tv that requires talent of the contestants is enjoyable.

My mom was a homemaker.
I got straight as.
I don't like vegetables.
I left school to support family.

[Speaker 1] Hi I am amy do you have any hobbies?

[Speaker 2] I do but I have no time now that I care for my grandparents.

[Speaker 1] That's sweet you care for them, I visit mine at least once a year.

[Speaker 2] I got a college scholarship but had to drop out to care for them.

[Speaker 1] I'm sure they enjoy you are company. I love to go to museums.

[Speaker 2] I love them to. I was homeschooled by my mom and she took us there often.

[Speaker 1] I was also homeschooled, it was fun being able to stay in pajamas all day!

[Speaker 2] She was a stay at home mom to my siblings and I.

[Speaker 1] That's fun, I am currently listening to classical music. Do you have any favorites?

[Speaker 2] I love all music. Especially while eating. But I hate salads!

[Speaker 1] Salads are disgusting, and I love to eat dinner while watching the voice!

[Speaker 2] I know I would like that show if I watched it. Never have time.

[Speaker 1] Maybe you could watch it with you are grandparents, I am sure they would like it too.

[Speaker 2] Yes, that's a great idea! I will have to do that for sure.

I am Amy.

I visit my grand parents once a year

My favorite thing is go to the museums.

I am homeschooled.

I am taking care of my grand parents.

I have siblings. My mom was a stay-at-home mon

I love all musics. I hate salads.

[Speaker 1] Did you watch that show the voice?

[Speaker 2] Yes.. My brothers & sisters watch it with me sometimes. We love all the different songs on there.

[Speaker 1] was there any song in particular that you really like over the others?

[Speaker 2] It's hard to choose just one.. you know? I love all genres from rap to country to polka! How about you?

[Speaker 1] I like watching it to see what the judges say about the performances. did you watch the last show with your grand parents?

[Speaker 2] Occasionally, but it's difficult for them to stay up that late sometimes. I bet you miss your grandparents. Has it been awhile since you got to see them?

[Speaker 1] Its been a bit since I saw them, but I'm planning on visiting them over christmas break so I'm excited.

[Speaker 2] I'm so excited for you! Maybe you should take them to a museum?

[Speaker 1] yeah that might be a good way to pass the time. I think there is a history museum in their area that I haven't been too.

[Speaker 2] And maybe take them to a restaurant afterwards? Haha. I think I'm just hungry. I could go for a steak or something.. as long as it isn't salad.

[Speaker 1] oh thats right, you are like me, you don't like salads either. dinner is a good idea, do you have any museum recommendations if the history museum doesn't work out?

[Speaker 2] You should see if there are any music museums in your area. We have a really cool one here that shows you history of music and has all sorts of cool props.

I am Amy. I visit my grand parents once a year. I haven't seen my grandparents in a while. I am planning on visiting my grandparents over Christmas break.

My favorite thing is go to the museums.

I am homeschooled.

I hate salads. I like watching the Voice. I like seeing what the judges say on The Voice.

I am taking care of my grand parents. I dropped out college to take care of my grandparents.

I love museums. I was homeschooled by my mom.I have brothers and sisters.My mom was a stay-at-home mon.

I hate salads.

I love all genres of music. Sometimes I watch The Voice with my grandparents.

[Speaker 1] I looked into all the museums in the area for when I visit my grandparents later! I picked out some good ones I hope they'll enjoy.

[Speaker 2] Brilliant! Which types of museum did you find?

[Speaker 1] It is a Science museum with a bunch of hands on experiments. They also have a planetarium instead with the super nice theater seating. Lastly, they have a cool magic show but its based in science.

[Speaker 2] That sounds really cool. Do your grandparents like science as well?

[Speaker 1] They are just supportive of things that I am interested in mostly. I think I can get school credit for visiting there too. I think it counts towards my science grade. I would much rather be walking around somewhere cool and learning about it than reading a book about it. I am a hands on learner, ya know?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I am too. Thats why I like being homeschooled, we can do things in a really different way rather than just reading about everything

[Speaker 1] Me too! I could never concentrate when I was sitting in a class especially because a bully was sitting behind me in a couple classes and I was just tormented most of the time. Did you ever have to deal with any of that stuff?

[Speaker 2] No I never used to go to school, me and my siblings have always been homeschooled by my mom

[Speaker 1] Oh, okay. I know bullies are everywhere but seems to thrive in school settings. This one bully was always calling me fat and I would tell the teacher and report it but nothing ever changed or happened to him. It was really bad for my self esteem.

[Speaker 2] I can see why it would be. I'm glad I never had to deal with that, I always had mom and my grandparents so no bullies! That's one of the reasons I dropped out of college to look after my grandparents

[Speaker 1] Yeah, that's so cool of you. They must really be proud of you and thankful that you can give back to them when they need it the most. You're an awesome person and super easy to talk to, cool beans!

[Speaker 2] You're the one taking your grandparents to museums! I mainly just watch TV with mine and help them around the house


I am very physical.
Saturday night I go drinking.
I'm over 65 and no longer have to work.
I like making a salmon entree.
I prefer the ladies.

I would do anything for my parent.
I cannot be alone at night.
I love bands like the beatles.
I do not like fresh greens.

[Speaker 1] I like cooking macrobiotic and healthy food and working out at the gym

[Speaker 2] What is macrobiotic food? My best friend is my mother

[Speaker 1] Things like whole grains. I drink at bars so I have to stay healthy

[Speaker 2] You shouldn't drink a lot, its bad for you

[Speaker 1] Well that is where I meet women, at bars. So I end up drinking

[Speaker 2] There are a lot more place to look for women, I hate the dark

[Speaker 1] Before I was finished working I was also married. Bars are the easies

[Speaker 2] That is true, do you like rock music? I love rock

[Speaker 1] Retirement gives me a lot of time to hone my guitar skills. I play jimi hendrix

[Speaker 2] I like guns n roses. But I dislike broccoli

[Speaker 1] Broccoli is healthy, so I like cooking meals with it.

[Speaker 2] I know its healthy but its not my cup of tea

[Speaker 1] I work out at the anytime fitness. It is open 24 7

[Speaker 2] I heard about that gym, I think one just opened up down the block from me

[Speaker 1] It is in a very new shopping complex. I cannot pick up women there though

[Speaker 2] Why not I think the gym is a great place to look for women


I've tried 35 different types of beer in my lifetime.

I have been married for 6 years.

I have been to 7 countries in europe and 3 countries in asia.

I like to go to the casino on weekends.

I wish I could live in a fantasy world.

I like lizards.

I draw during classes instead of taking notes.

I've long hair for a boy.

I like to drink on the weekends.

I found the person that I felt I wanted to spend my life with.

I travel all over the world.

I enjoy gambling sometimes.

I want to live in an imaginary planet.

I love reptiles.

I doodle when I'm sitting in my college lectures.

Dude has big afro.

[Speaker 1] Hello how are you today?

[Speaker 2] Eh,,, in class should be taking notes but drawing instead.

[Speaker 1] Sounds fun. What are you studying?

[Speaker 2] Studying human genetics. If you saw me you would be like wah?!

[Speaker 1] What do you do for fun? I go to the casino on the weekends.

[Speaker 2] I spend time with my pet lizard. I adore. For a guy I've long hair.

[Speaker 1] I adore beer. I have had 35 different beers in my life.

[Speaker 2] Nice! Yeah, some days I wish I was living in an alternate world.

[Speaker 1] I have traveled the world. Been to 7 countries in europe and 3 in asia.

[Speaker 2] I have not traveled been busy with school.

[Speaker 1] Maybe you will find time to travel soon. What do you do in your free time?

[Speaker 2] For me free time is just watching movies or hanging out with my few buddies.

[Speaker 1] I like to go to the casino.

[Speaker 2] Nice! Yeah I do not gamble... Not my thing.

I go to the casino for fun.

I like to drink beer.

I like to travel. I have been to ten countries.

I go to school studying Human Genetics.

I have a lizard. I have long hair for a guy.

I do not travel.

I like to watch movies and hang out with my friends in my free time.

I do not gamble.

[Speaker 1] Have you watched any good movies lately?

[Speaker 2] I have! A really cool film about a guy who races cars around big cities. One of the cities was somewhere you'd been - somewhere in Europe?

[Speaker 1] Hm, I don't travel in Europe much so I've really only been to Italy and France. Was it Rome or Paris do you think?

[Speaker 2] Ah! Maybe Rome - it looked warm. Remind me, where else have you travelled?

[Speaker 1] My mom's from Singapore and Dad's from Hong Kong so mostly Asian countries. I try to visit family every other year at least.

[Speaker 2] Oh wow! I've heard Singapore is one of the most expensive places to live. Where is your favourite country you've visited?

[Speaker 1] Yeah the property costs are out of this world! I think it's a tie between Thailand and South Korea. They're really different but both amazing.

[Speaker 2] I've heard a lot about South Korea. Sounds intriguing! We should hang out some time - you tried any good beers lately?

[Speaker 1] Definitely! There's a brewery a few miles from my house that just came out with a great new dark ale. We should grab a drink.

[Speaker 2] Is dark ale your favourite? It'd definitely be good to catch a break from my studies.

[Speaker 1] I bet genetics is a pretty tough subject. I actually prefer pale ales but it's good to try different things sometimes, you know?

[Speaker 2] It can be, but it's kinda fun, learning what people are made of. There's genes for gambling too! I know you go to the casino, so you may have a gene that tells you that you're more prone to gamble. Maybe that's why you like trying different things? I like a good lager - do you like the craft ales? They have awesome can designs.

I go to the casino for fun.

I like to travel. I have been to 10 countries. I have been to Italy and France. My mom is from Singapore. My dad is from Hong Kong. I have traveled mostly to Asian countries. I try to visit family at least every other year. My favorite country that I've visited is either Thailand or South Korea.

I like beer. I live a few miles from a brewery. I prefer pale ales to dark.

I go to school studying Human Genetics.

I do not travel.

I do not gamble.

I like beer.  I like lager. I like the can designs of craft ales.

[Speaker 1] Our conversation got me thinking about planning my next trip! Thought I might try somewhere new in Europe.

[Speaker 2] You've already bee to so many places. Are you going to go somewhere new?

[Speaker 1] Yes I am thinking of India. I have never been there and I hear their food is amazing. What do you think?

[Speaker 2] It looks so crowded and dirty to me. It wouldn't be my fist choice, but I can see where some people would love it.

[Speaker 1] I agree. India is super crowded with more than billion people living in it. Especially big cities have over tens of million residents. But I am really interested in their history and cultures

[Speaker 2] I'm pretty unsophisticated. My idea of culture is going to the movies.

[Speaker 1] I love going to movies. What movies you saw most recently? I like the horror and mystery genres. How about you?

[Speaker 2] I just watched Godzilla vs. Kong. Of course I rooted for Godzilla because of my pet lizard.

I can not imagine living in a small town again.

I am a educator.

I like to sing.

[Speaker 1] Hey there from oregon! Hope things are great with you!

[Speaker 2] Hi from the big city of new york! What part of oregon?

[Speaker 1] We live in portland! I just moved here with my partner. So far, so good!

[Speaker 2] Awesome, what kind of work do you do?

[Speaker 1] I'm an artist. I work at home. It lets me do my hobbies too.

[Speaker 2] Cool! I work from home as well, I teach private music lessons. What are your hobbies?

[Speaker 1] I'm learning to make craft beer and I like grinding beans for my own coffee.

[Speaker 2] I would like to learn about beer brewing. I play video games in my spare time.

[Speaker 1] What kind of video games do you like?

[Speaker 2] The game rock band, because I get to show off my amazing singing skills!

[Speaker 1] That's really cool. My partner loves to sing. Me listening to him.. Not so much.

[Speaker 2] Haha! Most people wo not sing outside of the shower or their car.

[Speaker 1] What kind of music lessons do you teach? Instruments or voice?

[Speaker 2] Oh, definitely voice. Jazz and classical.

[Speaker 1] Wow, that's really cool! I do not even try to sing in the shower...

[Speaker 2] I am sure your voice is great, you just do not know it

I just moved to Portland, Oregon.

I am an artist who works at home.

I'm learning to make craft beer and enjoy grinding coffee beans.

I live in New York City.

I teach jazz and classical vocal classes at home.

I like to play video games.

[Speaker 1] How is New York City?

[Speaker 2] Cold!! Colder even than Portland, I think.

[Speaker 1] Definitely! I don't know how you do it. but I guess i would give up Portland for the art and culture in NYC

[Speaker 2] Maybe you just need a little bit more time to settle-don't give up yet. Have you been able to connect with any other artists since you moved?

[Speaker 1] Yes and no. It's like any new place and it takes time to meet people. I just met this artist who makes these huge concrete pots. so impressive

[Speaker 2] That is one of the best parts about artistry-the diversity within it. What is your medium, for your art? I'm guessing the concrete pot person is not working in their home, lol.

[Speaker 1] I make small scale wood carvings of animals in a "folk" style. You could say my work is outsider or untrained

[Speaker 2] That is so crazy! A young woman I'm giving voice lessons to wants to only sing about animals and nature, but jazz style. It is such a niche interest. Maybe you can shoot me some pictures of your work? I'd like to get her something for after her performance at the end of the month.

[Speaker 1] done. you should give me copy of her singing. I've got a gallery show in a month and maybe could use her singing as audio in the room

[Speaker 2] Oh my gosh. We can have a whole east coast/west coast thing going. I think she would love that-I'll ask her. And you've already scored a show. You are BRINGING art and culture to Portland!

[Speaker 1] well don't get ahead of me. It is small. I am just a small fish in a very large artist pond.

[Speaker 2] I know how that feels. Those who can't do, teach (in my case).

I just moved to Portland, Oregon.

I am an artist who works at home.

I make wood carvings. I have a gallery show.

I live in New York City.

I like to play video games. I enjoy playing the game rock band. I like to sing.

I give voice lessons. I am a teacher.

[Speaker 1] How is teaching? Are your vocal chords sore?

[Speaker 2] After teaching for so long they're not nearly as sore as you would imagine haha! Are you working on any new projects for your gallery show?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I have a few different projects going on right now. I have my gallery show on April, 19th at 5 o'clock in Downton Portland. What age group do you teach?

[Speaker 2] That's coming up soon wow! Good luck on your gallery show, I'm sure it will be great! I work with all student age groups from elementary to college level.

[Speaker 1] Thank you! Which group is your favorite to work with?

[Speaker 2] You're welcome! My favorite is probably elementary because they're so active and just more excited to learn more things. It's also nice to see younger people enjoying learning about music - especially jazz!

[Speaker 1] That's a good age!

[Speaker 2] Yeah, they're pretty fun. I meant to ask have you had any success with your craft beer making since we last talked?

[Speaker 1] oh yes! I have made a Hazy IPA. It is delicious. Have you ever tried one?

[Speaker 2] I haven't tried it before! That sounds interesting, what would you say are the flavor notes?

[Speaker 1] I've 5 cats! Will you get your daughter the kitten?

[Speaker 2] I'm not sure yet. Do you have any hobbies?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I like to paint I often use the color blue. You?

[Speaker 2] I like to cook big gourmet meals for my family.

[Speaker 1] Nice. My sister is famous, she buys a lot of my work.

[Speaker 2] Oh how nice of her. Must be fun having a famous sister.

[Speaker 1] She's very material, lol. Are you married?

[Speaker 2] I'm, with one kid. She's 6. You?

[Speaker 1] No kids, my husband is always very busy. Do you work?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I work for a company that makes paper products. I am a salesperson.

I have 5 cats.

I like to paint the color blue.

My sister is famous. My sister buys my art.

I don't have any kids. I am married.

I don't have any pets.

I like to cook for my family.

I have one six year old daughter.

I am a salesperson selling paper products.

[Speaker 1] I finished a painting today that my sister is very interested in purchasing.

[Speaker 2] That's awesome!  What is it of?

[Speaker 1] It is a painting of her favorite place to watch the sunset. It overlooks the lake near our home, I added a couple sailboats in as well.

[Speaker 2] Sounds beautiful!  Maybe her fans will see it and want to buy paintings from you also and your painting business will take off!

[Speaker 1] Yes, that would be great! Have you been able to sell many paper products lately?

[Speaker 2] It's been pretty slow lately.  It usually picks back up in the new year so I'm hoping for an increase soon!   How are your cats doing?

[Speaker 1] They are good for the most part, I have one cat who was very sick last week but seems to be doing a little better today. I am bringing her to the vet for a checkup, so hopefully it goes well.

[Speaker 2] oh no, I hope she's okay!  I know your cats are like your children and I know how I feel when my daughter is sick and it's not a good feeling!

[Speaker 1] Yes, it is very hard, especially when they can't tell you what is wrong or how they are feeling.

[Speaker 2] yes!  That was always hard when my daughter was younger!  I'm glad now she's old enough to tell me how she feels!  I can imagine that would be very difficult with an animal!  How old are your cats?

[Speaker 1] They range in age from 2-13 years old. It gets hard as cats get older too because they start coming down with more and more issues.

[Speaker 2] It's hard watching pets or people age!  It can be sad!  Have you ever painted portraits of your cats?

I have 5 cats. I have a female cat who was sick. My cats range in age from 2-13 years old.

I like to paint the color blue.

I don't have any kids. I am married.

My home is near a lake.

I don't have any pets.

I like to cook for my family. I have one six year old daughter.

[Speaker 1] So what did you end up cooking?

[Speaker 2] I cooked pasta with pesto. It was so yummy. How is your sick cat?

[Speaker 1] He is getting healthier.  The other ones are always keeping him on his toes so he doesn't have much choice.  I know you don't have pets but you are more than welcome to come get one for your daughter if you like!

[Speaker 2] Thanks for your kind offer. Let me think about it. I know my daughter would love a cat. But I have to talk to her first to let her know that she has to take care of the cat if she gets it.

[Speaker 1] I understand.  My wife and I love cats because of their independence.  We do not have children, but I would imagine it would be a good starter pet for her to learn from.  Just feed and water them.  (And love them!)

[Speaker 2] Yes, a cat would be a great pet. But you know, kids need to promise taking responisbility before getting what they want. Have you painted something recently?

[Speaker 1] My sister requested a piece for her vacation home in the Bahamas.  She felt that an abstract piece would help accent her design.  Do you enjoy paintings?  You may want one for your office at work?

[Speaker 2] I wish I could paint. I would love a paiting from you to decorate my office. You love the paint color blue. That will be a greet color to paint for your sister.

[Speaker 1] I agree.  I am trying to get her to send me pictures of her surroundings.  A portrait may be better than abstract.  I will work on your painting after I am done.  Would you like something that represents the company you work for or would you like something more personal?

[Speaker 2] Thank you so much! I already get enough company things in my office, so would like a paint of the ocean. I am already excited for the idea of having the ocean on my back wall in the office.

[Speaker 1] That would be a nice addition to your office!!!  I am excited for you and I will get started soon.  Do you want it mailed to your house?

[Speaker 2] That's so nice

[Speaker 1] I enjoy it. Get a lot of time to read during the subway rides to work.

Pizza is my favorite food. I like reading.

[Speaker 1] what kind of books do you like to read?

[Speaker 2] I like sci fi, fantasy, and autobiographies mostly. How about you?

[Speaker 1] I mostly read fiction, a lot of classics and stuff. Is sci fi what got you interested in studying science in school?

[Speaker 2] Probably, I always liked science class in school and learning about the way things work. Plus I love nature and animals so it's a good fit.

[Speaker 1] I like animals too, at least pets (cats). And I love to go out in nature when I visit my sister in Canada. It's beautiful there.

[Speaker 2] I bet, what part of Canada does she live in?

[Speaker 1] She lives in Northern Ontario. North Bay, if you've heard of it. Gets really cold in winter.

[Speaker 2] Oh cool do they see a lot of wildlife or do they live more in the city?

[Speaker 1] It's more of a town. Seems really small to me, but I live in a big city. I've seen moose and otters up there. There are bears too.

[Speaker 2] I love bears! I'd like to get in to a sanctuary working with them at some point. I like to go hiking and see them fairly often in the spring time. Do you do any hiking?

[Speaker 1] Only when I visit my sister. Otherwise, I do a lot of walking in Central Park and on the streets. Do you also do other outdoor stuff, like skiing, kayaking, etc.?

[Speaker 2] I do, I like mountain biking, skiing, canoeing, haven't tried kayaking yet but I'd like to! How about you?

I have a sister who lives in Northern Ontario, North Bay in Canada. I visit her every fall.

[Speaker 1] I recently went into the wild and set up a camping. I really had a great time exploring the wildlife. I think we should go together sometime.

[Speaker 2] That would be a lot of fun, did you find any animals when you were out there?

[Speaker 1] Mostly just moose and deer, they actually got up pretty close to us.

[Speaker 2] Wow that sounds amazing, normally deers are quite shy so for you to actually see one up close in the wild sounds like such a good experience

[Speaker 1] Yea it was really cool, we were pretty still and quiet so I think they felt a little more comfortable. It's nice being out in nature like that. Have you had any close encounters with any wildlife?

[Speaker 2] I wish, if I could see a bear once that would be great but if I did it probably would be the last thing I see. Are you planning on seeing your sister this fall?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I'm really looking forward to it. We always make a bunch of plans for my visit, it's one of my favorite times of year.

[Speaker 2] How do you look after your cats when you are away, I can imagine they  must miss you quite a bit

[Speaker 1] I have a good friend who usually stays with them at my house, so they at least get to stay comfortable at home. Do you have any pets?

[Speaker 2] My College dorms don't allow pets but I would love a lizard even if they are quite high maintenance. Back home I have a dog though. Are you a cat or dog person?

[Speaker 1] Even though I have cats, I'm actually more of a dog person. But cats are a lot more low maintenance so I haven't made the commitment of a dog yet.

[Speaker 2] You give me the vibe of a cat person so that is surprising, what is your favourite dog breed?

I worry about money even though I m in high school.

I'm a truck driver.

My dad was a police officer.

[Speaker 1] Hi. Hows... Hows it going....?

[Speaker 2] I am great. Where are you from my man?

[Speaker 1] I would tell you... But I'm afraid of what my dad might do...

[Speaker 2] Why?? He sounds crazy. Are you ok? My dad is a cop and could help.

[Speaker 1] He is just.... Strict. Is that what you want to be too?

[Speaker 2] Not really. Right now I drive a truck for a living. What do you do?

[Speaker 1] I am still in high school. I wish I had a job.. We have no money

[Speaker 2] Oh that sucks. Do not worry, you will have a job soon. Where you from though?

[Speaker 1] Southern kentucky. Born and raised.

[Speaker 2] Nice, virginia here. Do you have any hobbies?

[Speaker 1] I only got one friend.. We like to throw rocks off the jetty

[Speaker 2] Oh man, do you ever drive? Maybe I can teach you to drive stick. It is fun

[Speaker 1] Hot damn! I would love that! You a racer or something??

[Speaker 2] Truck driver buddy, I told you! Open your ears! But what do you say?

I have a strict father.
I am a high school student.
I am from Kentucky.
I only have one friend.
I do not know how to drive stick.

My dad is a police officer.

I drive a truck for work. I am able to drive stick.

I am from Virginia.

[Speaker 1] I think my father has started to let me do more things on my own.

[Speaker 2] That is great! What types of things is he letting you do on your own now?

[Speaker 1] I was able to drive myself to school and from school!  He even let me go to the movies with my friends!  Is your father strict?

[Speaker 2] No, my father lets me do what I want. But if I do something to get in trouble or disobey him then he becomes strict. What movie did you go see with your friends?

[Speaker 1] I get that, I hope it's not too bad for you.  My friend and I went to see Wonder Woman 1984.  have you seen it yet?  It's awesome!

[Speaker 2] No, I haven't seen that but I really want to. Now that I know it is good, I will probably go see it this weekend. I hope your father continues to let you do more things.

[Speaker 1] Yes, me too.  I just need to keep making good choices!  Do you enjoy driving trucks for work?

[Speaker 2] For the most part, yes. Sometimes it gets a little boring/lonely driving for so long by myself. How is school going for you?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I'm sure it does.  Do you listen to music, audio books or podcasts while you're driving?  School is going well.  I love English but not so much Math.  It's very difficult for me.  Luckily my one friend is very good at math and is willing to help me!

[Speaker 2] That is great, it is always helpful to have friends that can support you when needed. Yes, I listen to a lot of music and am just getting in to podcasts. Do you have any suggestions?

[Speaker 1] I really like the podcast "Cold" it's about cold case mysteries.  They're very thrilling and make you want to learn more about the case!  You'll have to listen and then let me know how you like it!

[Speaker 2] Yes, I will let you know how I like it. I hope it is not too scary!

I have a strict father. I live with my father. I am a high school student. My favorite subject is english and I am not very good at math. I am from Kentucky.

I only have one friend.

I do not know how to drive stick. I know how to drive.

I love watching super hero movies.

I love podcasts about case mysteries.

I have a lenient father. I do what I want. My dad is a police officer.

I am from Virginia.

I drive trucks for work.

I love listening to music. I do not like scary stories.

[Speaker 1] Hey I know it might be to soon to ask but have you been able to have a listen to the "Cold" podcast I told you about? There will be a new one releasing tomorrow and I know it will be a good one! If you go on a long drive for work tomorrow, go ahead and give it a listen I'm sure time will fly for you.

[Speaker 2] I have it on my list now and it's next up for sure! I have just finished the Unsolved Mysteries podcast because I travel so much and feel like it kind of informs me of whats out there.

[Speaker 1] Isn't Unsolved Mysteries scary? Are you okay listening to those when driving at night?

[Speaker 2] I don't see them as scary because they are true stories. The scary ones I can't stand are more horror-like stories and the fake stuff. The unsolved stories make me think of my dad and his job. He is alway investigating stuff so maybe that's why I like it so much?

[Speaker 1] I like those case mysteries too, but sometimes I got really scared when the case is brutal. I become a bit paranoid thinking something similar can happen to me whenever I go outside.

[Speaker 2] DUDE, me too! I start looking over my shoulder and under my truck before I open the door! Even if you can fight pretty good there's nobody who can fight off someone who is hiding behind a bush or something.

[Speaker 1] Right!? Last time I heard the story about a high school student got kidnapped, raped, tied, and burned alive on the block where she lives. I don't want to go to school the next day.

[Speaker 2] That sucks! I know thats why my dad became a cop was to catch idiots like that and throw away the key on them. I have thought about being a cop someday too but I am not ready to go through the academy and all that yet.

[Speaker 1] Yes, being a cop seems hard. I hope your dad stay safe on his job. I'll start with learning some self defense.

[Speaker 2] The worst part are the hours that he works. He is never home but the city is safer with him out there. I wouldn't mind learning some self defense moves too, cool idea. It is probably pretty good cardio too!

[Speaker 1] It probably won't enough to take care of the assailants, and won't make me as strong as a super hero or a cop. My aim is at least to buy myself enough time to run and find others for help.

[Speaker 2] Yep, I am all about running away and yelling fire! I am not above screaming for help and scratching eyes out and getting room to run like heck!

[Speaker 2] Do you have any favorite charities that you like to help out?

[Speaker 1] Yes, senior citizen ones. Speaking of, my grandma likes making pizza with me.

[Speaker 2] I don't know if I like him or not. I have never seen the movie.

[Speaker 1] I just think he's a cute character. Anything interesting you want to tell me?

I m a kindergarten teacher.
I enjoy organizing my surroundings.
I love kids.
When I m stressed, I overeat.
I've a lot of style.

I work in retail.

Lady gaga is my current favorite singer.

I love music.

I go to at least 10 concerts a year.

I love children.

I'm a clean freak.

I like babies.

I cannot stop eating when I get anxious.

I'm flashy.

I have a job at sears.
I am a big fan of pop culture.
I'm a musical person.
I love mosh pits.

[Speaker 1] I teach kindergarten and sometimes I get too stressed out doing it.

[Speaker 2] Hat is cool I work in a retail store and its stressful as well

[Speaker 1] I love the kids and all but sometimes its just too stressful for me.

[Speaker 2] Is it because they can tell lies?

[Speaker 1] I like to keep my surroundings organized but they create too much chaos.

[Speaker 2] You should try to talk with them

[Speaker 1] Tall tales are part of being a kid but all the chaos really stresses me out.

[Speaker 2] Try listening to music, I love listing to it and it helps me relax

[Speaker 1] I try to talk but I get even more stressed and then I overeat too much.

[Speaker 2] As my favorite singer lady gaga always says food is killer

[Speaker 1] Yeah music is good for that but I do not have much time for that.

[Speaker 2] Why not? You can do it while doing different activities

[Speaker 1] Lady gaga is cool. She's a substitute teacher sometimes too.

[Speaker 2] I know its cool that she does that

[Speaker 1] Well I get stresses out and I eat more and more. Its a vicious cycle.

[Speaker 2] Wow that does sound tough

I teach kindergarten. I like my students. Teaching stresses me out. When I m stressed, I overeat.

I like to have organized surroundings.

I work in a retail store.
I love listening to music.
My favorite singer is Lady Gaga.

[Speaker 1] I tried listening to Lady Gaga last night!

[Speaker 2] That's awesome! What did you think of her music?

[Speaker 1] She's not like I thought she would be. Her songs are pretty addictive. I've been humming pokerface all day

[Speaker 2] I can relate to that! Do you have any plans for your upcoming spring break from school?

[Speaker 1] I signed up to a fitness course. One of those bootcamp type things. I figured its time to finally get in shape!

[Speaker 2] That's a great goal. Paired with some healthy snacks, you'll make a ton of progress in short order. Do you wish you did anything else other than teaching?

[Speaker 1] No, I couldn't think of any job I'd rather do. It's stressful but it's great working with kids. Maybe one day I'll take up a post in a quieter school but for now I'm happy where I am. Have you ever thought about a different job?

[Speaker 2] I think about a different job all the time - retail gets a different kind of stressful too, especially at Christmas time. I'm thinking of going back to school to get into computer science.

[Speaker 1] It's never too late to change direction in your career. What interests you about computer science?

[Speaker 2] I'd be very interested in developing apps. It wouldn't surprise me to see retail move online even more than it already has, which would result in fewer physical store locations being needed.

[Speaker 1] I do a lot of online shopping already so I can see it happening. I don't like buying clothes online though, the sizes are never right.

[Speaker 2] That's fair, plus sending them back to the seller is a hassle and you might be on the hook for the shipping charge. Did you go through Amazon a lot?

I like to have organized surroundings.

I don't have much time to listen to music. I like Lady Gaga's music.

I am trying to get into shape.

I shop online.

I work in a retail store.

I think that eating well and staying in shape is very important.

I would like to study computer science.

[Speaker 1] I saw an ad for a school that teaches you how to create apps. Want me to send you the information?

[Speaker 2] Sure, that would be great. I'm sure it pays better than my current job.

[Speaker 1] Ok ill send it over. Whats the store you work at like? It must have something going for it, if not the wages!

[Speaker 2] I do get to meet some interesting customers now and then, and the hours aren't too bad.

[Speaker 1] Youve never said, and iv never thought to ask, but what do they sell there?

[Speaker 2] It's an old-style department store. I work in the home electronics section, so I do get to see the latest computers too.

[Speaker 1] That sounds kind of nice, shame the pay is not great. Is the building old and interesting?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, it's from the Art Deco era. The facade needs a good cleaning, though!

[Speaker 1] Wow, i love Deco architecture. Maybe we can swap jobs for a few weeks, you can take my kindergarten class!

[Speaker 2] They actually used to do tours for school pupils at one time, though I think that was more aimed at older kids. Still, no harm in asking ...

[Speaker 1] I just get so stressed at work at the moment, if i dont have a break soon i think im going to eat myself in to an early grave!

[Speaker 2] Is the kindergarten open all year, or do you have summer breaks like the schools for older kids do?

I like Italian food.

[Speaker 1] What is your favorite Italian restaurant in the area?

[Speaker 2] I love a place called 'Plario's. It's just a small place but always crowded because their food is so good. The large chains just mass produce food but everything in Plario's is cooked when you order.

[Speaker 1] That sounds so good, I'd love to go if I could ever get myself to leave the house :(

[Speaker 2] The day will come my friend. Perhaps you can join me sometime. They have a great chicken dish that's made for two. Melts in your mouth.

[Speaker 1] Oh my god I love chicken that melts in your mouth! But there's just one thing, even though you said the dish is for two, could we each get one?

[Speaker 2] I suppose so. That way we could each have a take home portion. Don't try to feed it to your cat though. From the taste I would say it's very fattening but who cares every once in awhile?

[Speaker 1] I heard that lol. We'll have to save room for dessert too! This is all getting me so excited. Such a special event. Would you come over early and help with my makeup?

[Speaker 2] I will try but I apply mine with a paint brush.  Maybe that's why no body is rushing to propose!

[Speaker 1] Girl who needs men these days. We're gonna hit the town so hard you'll forget they even exist. I mean just talking about it and I've already almost forgot about my crippling depression!

[Speaker 2] Have you tried mediation? I started doing it several times a week and it soothes my anxieties a lot. Do you take meds for it?

[Speaker 1] If by medication and meds you mean knocking out after chowing down a slice of chocolate cake, yes I have been for years!!

[Speaker 2] I love it! There's nothing better for a girl than chocolate cake with a scoop of ice cream on top! I have a great recipe for it, from my granny. It's moist and very heavy. .

I have severe anxiety and depression.

I live at home with my dad, brother, and cat. I am a single woman who doesn't wear a lot of makeup but some.

[Speaker 1] I just found the best recipe ever for pasta.

[Speaker 2] My favorite! Whats the recipe?

[Speaker 1] It is chicken alfredo. I love it. The recipe shows how to make the creamy alfredo from scratch. I tried it for lunch and it was amazing

[Speaker 2] Wow that sounds really good, did you add any chicken to the dish?

[Speaker 1] Of course. I put in some oven roasted chicken breast. I could've put in some dark meat but chicken breast is healthier.

[Speaker 2] Yeah I like chicken breast the best in an alfredo dish. Was it pretty filling?

[Speaker 1] Yes and I got some ciabatta bread. I will try to bake some bread on my own too. Do you cook at home?

[Speaker 2] I try to haha, If it doesn't turn out well I just go down to the restaurant Plario's.

[Speaker 1] Oh yeah I like Plario's too. Good food and nice ambiance. I enjoy their deserts. What do you usually get there?

[Speaker 2] I usually do a vodka pasta with some grilled chicken. I also really enjoy their chicken parm there as well. What do you usually get?

[Speaker 1] Sounds yumy. You know I don't leave my house often. But I get some tiramisu from Plario's from time to time.

[Speaker 1] Oh nice! I'd love a gold top Les Paul. Broadly rock, try to mix it up though. Where in Toronto has good french fries?

[Speaker 2] Have you ever had poutine? It's a Canadian delicacy made with fries. I can take you to a great place.

[Speaker 1] I've heard of it, but never had it. It sounds delicious though. That would be great! On local food, I tried gator when I was in Florida last time - have you ever tried fried alligator?

[Speaker 2] I haven't but I'm sure it's interesting. We have great Asian food here which is great for me. Do you like Japanese food?

[Speaker 1] It's pretty tasty! And wow, I can bet! The cities are good for that - I bet it's not as good as Japan though? And yes! Though, I will admit I'm a rookie and have only ever really tried sushi.

[Speaker 2] Sushi is what I would get at a restaurant anyway. Anything else Japanese, my mom's is better. I would love to show you around Chinatown in Toronto also when you come.

[Speaker 1] Visiting Chinatown would be great! I guess I'll shake it up from the fries for sure. Does your mom cook professionally?

[Speaker 2] No just for us kids. She owns a sewing store. You can probably relate to owning your own business. It's a very rewarding endeavor.

[Speaker 1] Oh I bet! I'd love to visit Toronto sometime and try poutine! How is it there?

[Speaker 2] Yes.  You would love it here.  It has a nice music scene and you could pick up some poutine. Do you travel often.

[Speaker 1] Awesome! I'm all about the music scene. I've done a little traveling, I've been to Florida but I'd love to do more traveling.

[Speaker 2] How was the music scene in Florida when you last visited?

[Speaker 1] Amazing! I loved Florida, I can't wait to go back. Have you ever been?

[Speaker 2] No I have never been to Florida.  It is on my list of places to visit.

I have braces.

I'm fifteen years old.

I live in america in the state of florida.

I just started the tenth grade and my concentration is in science.

There s only been one set of twins in my family.

I ve been cheated on by every ex girlfriend except for one.

I can make fart noises with my arm pits, even some musical melody s.

I use to be a huge superman fan as a child.

My biggest fear in life is heights.

I possess orthodontics.
Next year I'll be sixteen.
I live in the south.
I am in high school.

A twin is a rare occurrence.

I've bad luck with relationships.

I've quirky hidden talents.

When I was young I really enjoyed comics.

I'm deathly afraid of being up really high.

[Speaker 1] I am in tenth grade. How old are you?

[Speaker 2] How do you like it?

[Speaker 1] I like science a lot so those classes are good.

[Speaker 2] That is awesome. I make fart noise with my armpits even songs

[Speaker 1] Weird, haha. Do people laugh?

[Speaker 2] All the time. Its funny. My fear of heights I'm trying to get over.

[Speaker 1] I might not laugh but I am not sure.

[Speaker 2] I was a huge superman fan as a kid

[Speaker 1] I like that too sort of. I'm only fifteen so still watch it.

[Speaker 2] Oh wow that is pretty young

[Speaker 1] Yes. I was born in 2002.

[Speaker 2] Wow, I was in high school when you were born

[Speaker 1] Did you like it there?

[Speaker 2] High school? It was not bad it was just a lot of work in all honesty

[Speaker 1] I hear that. I get so much homework.

[Speaker 2] Yeah that's part of school!!

I am still a superman fan.

I used to be a superman fan.

I was in high school in 2002.

[Speaker 1] I've just gotten through my homework for the night and can finally relax.

[Speaker 2] That's always such a nice feeling to get done and be able to unwind!  What do you like to do to relax after a long day?

[Speaker 1] I really like to read Superman comics.  Did you enjoy the comics or the show better when you were a superman fan?

[Speaker 2] I used to do that too when I was younger, loved those comics!  I just don't have much time for that stuff now.  I really liked the comics but it was always nice to just relax and watch the show too.  Do you like the show at all?

[Speaker 1] I haven't really seen it very much, but what I have seen I did enjoy.  It's funny that you liked Superman even though you have a fear of heights.  How are you trying to overcome that?

[Speaker 2] Haha maybe that's why I liked him so much, now that I think about it.  Maybe I looked up to him so much because he wasn't afraid of heights, or anything else really!  I have gotten into hiking recently and that seems to be helping a bit but I still don't think I'm ready to jump out of a plan or anything....  Do you have any fears?

[Speaker 1] Not really.  I was afraid of heights when I was younger, but I think I've kind of got over it by watching Superman fly and thinking I would really like to do that, haha.

[Speaker 2] Right?  Flying would be one of the best abilities ever!  If I could fly I would definitely have to get over my fear haha!  You should figure out how to turn us both into a superman through science lol!

[Speaker 1] You could always get one of those flying suits and take the leap on one of your next hikes!  I don't think I'm quite that brave, but it would be fun that's for sure.

[Speaker 2] Oh my goodness!  I've seen those before and they do look pretty amazing!  I can't imagine a closer feeling to flying than that!  I don't think I'm quite there yet either!   Maybe one day...

[Speaker 1] If you ever get there, send me a video!  Or, maybe we could even do it together.  Superman would do it!

[Speaker 2] Superman would do it!  If I had a buddy to do it with it would definitely be easier!  Let plan it and make it happen!

I am 15 years old. I am in the tenth grade. I was born in 2002. I like science and enjoy science classes.

I am still a superman fan.

I used to be scared of heights.

I have a fear of heights that I am trying to overcome.  I would like to fly.

I used to be a superman fan. I like comics and i like to watch shows. I was in high school in 2002.

I have been hiking recently.

[Speaker 1] Lets go hiking! when are you free?

[Speaker 2] Im really busy at work at the moment, but i think maybe i can do Sunday?! You should ask your folks if they are free. Do you have hiking boots already?

[Speaker 1] Yep I got my hiking boots this year from REI. My uncle can join us for hiking. He says he wants to bring his dog with him. Remember my uncle Larry?

[Speaker 2] Yes of course, Larry! How could i forget, Larrys a swell guy. Tell Larry ill bring a few brewskis and we can stop for a fish up at the lake, hopefully catch us all something for lunch. Have you ever fished before?

[Speaker 1] No but there is a lake nearby the hiking trail. Is that where you wanna go fishing? Larry hangs out with his friends there all the time

[Speaker 2] Yeah i thought as its roughly half way round, we could stop there, fish a bit, drink some cold ones and have a little fish. Myself and Larry could teach you if you'd like?

[Speaker 1] Sure Uncle Larry took me to fly fishing once but that's about it. You can show me how to fish properly

[Speaker 2] Great, fly fishing is difficult, i just like to chuck a line out, drink some beer and hopefully catch a few mackerel for lunch. Nothing tastes quite like really fresh fish. Do you like eating fish?

[Speaker 1] I like fried cat fish but we don't eat much fancy stuff. I guess I had some salmon and cod before. Mackerel sounds great. How do you cook it?

[Speaker 2] We build a little fire by the lake, let it burn down whislt we fish, then put them straight on there in some foil, till  they roast up good. Its the best way to eat fish, better than any restaurant.

[Speaker 2] I left my job at monsanto last year. What do you need?

[Speaker 1] I can't find a job locally and I miss my family like crazy..

[Speaker 2] I'm sorry to hear that.

[Speaker 1] I'm an athlete... You could even be my life coach. Are you good at that?

[Speaker 2] No. Do you like to shop online? It is an addiction to me.

[Speaker 1] I love shopping online! Especially scalping concert tickets!

[Speaker 2] I have never done that.

[Speaker 1] Its a rush. Hearing the music. Being around a bunch of people...

[Speaker 2] What type of music do you like?

I cannot find a local job.

I am an athlete.

I love to shop online.  I enjoy scalping concert tickets online.

I enjoy swimming.

I left my Monsanto job last year.

I am addicted to online shopping.

I have never scalped concert tickets online.

[Speaker 1] I have applied for a few new jobs today.

[Speaker 2] What kind of job are you looking for?

[Speaker 1] Something in writing.  My major was journalism.  It's so hard to find a job though!

[Speaker 2] I heard some third party ticket sites are looking to hire experienced scalpers to write articles for them. You might be interested in that?

[Speaker 1] I'd love the info for that!  It would be easy to write about something I love to do and I'm good at!!  Have you done any swimming lately?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I'll send you a link. I saw an ad for it earlier this week. Unfortunately, I haven't been swimming much it's been really cold outside! I wish my gym had an indoor heated pool.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, all gyms should have one!  Especially if you don't live in a tropical climate!  Have you looked into any new jobs since you left your last one?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I'm working at a company called slickdeals. They deal with a lot of online shopping and finding deals for people. It's perfect for me.

[Speaker 1] Sounds perfect since you love online shopping!  I love finding good deals online!  I'll have to check out the company!  Especially without having a job, I need to find good deals!  When did you start working there?

[Speaker 2] After I left my last job I went on a job hunt and found them. My work life balance has been great since I started and the company matches my values. All my coworkers are great too. We often go out for Friday night drinks.

[Speaker 1] That's great!  Do you get to work from home or do you go into an office?

[Speaker 2] We mainly work at the office, but if you want to work from home you can call in. The company is pretty flexible overall. If you to try applying I can recommend you to the recruiter.

I just graduated.  I am still figuring out what I will do next. I cannot find a local job. I majored in journalism. I am looking for a job in writing.

I am an athlete.

I like scalping.

I like finding deals.

I enjoy swimming. I'm a member of a gym.

I left my Monsanto job last year. I am addicted to online shopping. I work at slickdeals. I've had multiple jobs. I like my coworkers. I mainly work in the office but can work from home if I call in.

[Speaker 1] I got a few interviews from jobs I have applied for.

[Speaker 2] Thats great! What companies are the interviews for?

[Speaker 1] 2 of them are magazines and the rest are media and independent newspaper. I'm so excited and also nervous too.

[Speaker 2] I'm sure you will do great, are you looking to write about a specific topic?

[Speaker 1] I'm open to anything now since it'll be my first job. Politics, local news, sports, even fashion. Do you have any interview tips for me? Anything will be helpful.

[Speaker 2] For sure! Make sure to be confident, sit up straight and be yourself. Interviewers can always tell if someone isnt being genuine. I've found that to be the best way to have a good interview.

[Speaker 1] That's great advice. I wish I won't be too nervous during the interview. I should probably find a good suit for the interview. How's it like when you interviewed for your current job?

[Speaker 2] It was very formal, one on one. But eventually through talking to them, the conversation started to become more relaxed. It was a good sign that they liked me. I ended up getting the job offer right after leaving!

[Speaker 1] Wow, that's surprise me that you got the offer right after leaving. You must did very good in the interview. I'll get prepared from tonight as the first interview will be next Monday. So, anything new from you?

[Speaker 2] I just got a new personal best time with swimming! I think training at the gym and pushing myself has helped greatly!

[Speaker 1] Awesome! Good for you! What's your new record now? Maybe some time later we should go work out in gym together so you can teach me a bit :)

[Speaker 2] While I am no olympic swimmer, I am able to go down and back in just under a minute! I came a long way since I started, for sure. I would love for you to come with me! Its always better with a friend.

[Speaker 2] Wow that's a great selfless profession.

[Speaker 1] It is rewarding. Just with they would let me drive my ford truck to work.

[Speaker 2] Why cant you drive your truck do you have to take the squad car home with you

[Speaker 1] They make us drive the squad cars. But at least I get to bring my own guns.

[Speaker 2] That is a good perk. I love justin bieber he is my favorite

I drive a ford truck.
I am a gun owner.
I like some Justin Bieber songs.

[Speaker 1] I have been listening to more Justin Bieber on my patrols.

[Speaker 2] justin bieber helps me in my day to day. i'm sure he helps you stay calm and focused on duty

[Speaker 1] Well im learning to like him, I cant say hes my favorite yet but hes starting to grow on me.  How have you been doing the last couple of days?  Have you been sticking to your treatment?

[Speaker 2] treatment is tough. they have given me the option to stop. so I have decided that is what is will do. better to live the last days of my life in less pain than is neccessary

[Speaker 1] Well youre one of the toughest people that I know.  You know what we should do?  We should try to find a Justin Bieber concert that we could go to together!  I can haul my camper with my truck and we can go to one of his concerts!

[Speaker 2] thank you my friend! I would love that. Please know that you have always been the most supportive person a friend could ask for. I can see why you make such a good police officer. and ALMOST a bieber fan!!! lol

[Speaker 1] HAHA! someday I might fully like him but in the mean time ill just listen to his songs in the car when nobody else is around so i wont get teased by my coworkers.

[Speaker 2] stereotypical police officers! joking! each to their own. I am not saying words of wisdom, but you only live once. listen to what you listen to. you do you right

[Speaker 1] Exactly!   Oh you know what we really need to do?  We could go out to our farm and shoot some clay pigeons.  I have a couple shotguns we could use.  Nothing helps me blow off some steam more than shooting guns.  I think youll be pleasantly surprised by how fun it is.  You bring the drinks and ill supply the explosives!

[Speaker 2] done my friend. This sounds perfect. you know when we drive in your Ford we are listening to Bieber the whole way to the farm!!!

[Speaker 1] Oh for sure.  I had no doubt about that.  Baby baby baby OOOOH.   Now I have that song stuck in my head thanks a lot.

[Speaker 2] hahahha now you know what's its like in my head! hey are you on patrol this evening. Drop by the hospital if youre not and have the time. Tonight is visitor day

My favorite singer is Justin Bieber.

My friend drives a ford and listens to Justin Bieber.

[Speaker 1] The more I have been listening to Justin Bieber the more I like his music!

[Speaker 2] What is your favorite song by him right now?

[Speaker 1] I haven listened to all of them, but I like "Sorry" and "Love Yourself". What about you?

[Speaker 2] I really like "All that Matters", but if were talking his older stuff, then "Boyfriend"!

[Speaker 1] I will them a try. I'm not sure why so many people hate him. I mean, he's not my favorite but so far I can't find a reason to hate him.

[Speaker 2] I think people don't like the fact that he has been around for a while and is still relevant.

[Speaker 1] Older musicians like Bon Jovi has been around forever, still relevant, but I don't see the similar hatred directed to him. Maybe it is a generational thing?

[Speaker 2] Probably. How is your job going?

[Speaker 1] It is kind of complicated to do my job nowadays. So many things lies in the fuzzy area. If I make any mistakes, or do something that some bystanders don't like, I can lose my job even if I am not at fault.

[Speaker 2] I understand that. I appreciate all that you do!

[Speaker 1] Thank you! My feeling to want to serve and protect is still the same. I simply hope more people dig for all the facts before pointing fingers, just because they saw on the news about some unfortunate incidents somewhere else.

[Speaker 1] I found out I like cooking for other people. Do not suffer, come eat with us.

[Speaker 2] I am a bartender we could work together

[Speaker 1] I grow my own food and herbs. It started as a hobby but now its a career.

[Speaker 2] People always tell me I'm a good cook

I am a bartender and a good cook.
I play the piano.

[Speaker 1] I have been trying out some new things in the kitchen.

[Speaker 2] That's exciting!  What dishes have you tried making lately?

[Speaker 1] I made a mean spicey Cajun chicken pasta the other night! It paired well with some Margaritas! Do you like spicy food?

[Speaker 2] Oh wow that sounds, great.  Yes I love spicy food, Cajun food is one of my favorites, but I also love Mexican.  Did you use any home grown veggies and herbs in the dish?

[Speaker 1] Yeah I tossed in some fresh cilantro I grew. Mexican food is probably my favorite actually, I love a taco! My dog likes the leftovers as well!

[Speaker 2] That's great, yeah I love spending all day making a delicious mole sauce from scratch.  Seems like Mexican cocktails are some of the best too, Margaritas and Palomas are very popular at the bar I work.

[Speaker 1] Everyone loves a drop of tequila! Yeah I like to sit back and sip a cocktail at home as well, turn some music on and relax. You listen to much music?

[Speaker 2] Yes I do, music is one of my favorite past-times.  I love me some Billy Joel, he's what inspired me to learn the piano.  What's your favorite style of music?

[Speaker 1] I really like Billy Joel! He has some really good tunes and really knows how to work a piano into a song. I am still clinging to liking Rock music, although I think its a dying breed. I really like the Arctic Monkeys, they make surprisingly good use of pianos and synths as well.

[Speaker 2] I love rock as well, and I agree that it's not as popular as it once was.  The Arctic Monkeys are great, they're one of the last few groups that consistently makes good alternative rock.  The Foo Fighters are probably my favorite current rock group.

[Speaker 1] Yes the Foo Fighters are amazing, its wild to think back to Dave Grohl in Nirvana, they probably started me on alternative rock. The bar I work has live music, the energy at shows is great but I don't think its as commercially viable as it used to be.

[Speaker 2] Yes i agree, hopefully more bands start to become popular like that again.  What kind of dog do you have?

I have a dog and a lizard.

I grow food and herbs for a living. I grow fresh cilantro.

I went to bartending school. I am a chef. I like spicy food. I like Margaritas. Mexican food is my favorite.

I like Billy Joel. I like rock music. I like the Arctic Monkeys. I like the Foo Fighters and alternative rock.

I am a bartender and a good cook.

I play the piano.

I love spicy food. I like Cajun and Mexican food.

I like cooking. I like Mexican cocktails.

I like Billy Joel. I play the piano. I love rock music. My favorite current rock group is the Foo Fighters.

[Speaker 1] The other day I tried a great new Mexican cocktail!

[Speaker 2] Excellent, did you manage to find out what was in it?

[Speaker 1] Okay, its gonna sound gross so I am warning you in advance. It started with coffee, Fresno jalapeno, tequila (duh!), lime and green onions. It was really good but mind you I had already had 3 shots of tequila.

[Speaker 2] Wow! Thats quite some cocktail, green onions lol! Where was it you had it? Maybe i should come try it rather than attempting to recreate it myself with no reference.

[Speaker 1] It was at a farmers market and taco truck shindig I went to. They had live music playing and all sorts of fruits and veggies plus booths with food. I think it's once a month but I'll find out for you. It's a must!

[Speaker 2] That sounds great, what was the music like?

[Speaker 1] It was full blown country square dancin rootin tootin country music, lol. It was such a fun atmosphere and so many people dancing around that I actually liked it. It was a super friendly and good vibe.

[Speaker 2] I can handle a bit of country if the tacos are fresh and the drinks are flowing! Theres a new bar near here that does Cajun food that looks good if you ever fancy it?

[Speaker 1] Yeah, thats cool! I like the sounds of it! Do they happen to have an outdoor patio or anywhere that accepts dogs? I mine everywhere I go so sometimes I have to find the right spot that he can be allowed at.

[Speaker 2] Yeah its that kind of place, dog friendly. Theres a huge patio area out back which is great as long as you dont mind cigarette smoke, as its also the smoking area.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, thats cool! He was just jumping on my keyboard and messing with me like he knows I was asking about places for him to go too! I am a smoker even though I know its bad.

[Speaker 2] Same, i gave up for a bit, but working in the bar i relapsed about 6 months ago. Ill quit eventually but nothing beats a cigarette after a few drinks.
