[Speaker 2] Listen, your logic is absurd. I'd arm wrestle you if you were here.

[Speaker 1] You cannot beat me in arm wrestling!! I drink chocolate milk all day

[Speaker 2] You cannot scare me with your strength! I am the arm wrestling champ in my town!

[Speaker 1] Best in town? I am best in country!!

[Speaker 2] Okay big shot. Lets do this.

[Speaker 1] I will swim across an ocean to beat you

[Speaker 2] Anytime, any place. I will make you a special map with my awesome cartographer skill.

[Speaker 2] Congratulations! I hope it gets published. What is the story about?

[Speaker 1] Thanks! It's a steampunk romance. It's about a girl who's half cyborg and falls in love with a human

[Speaker 2] I love romance stories. Human/cyborg is all the same. You'll have to send me a copy. I can't wait to read it

[Speaker 1] I definitely will! It'll be nice to have some feedback on it. I'm glad it's finally done, it took forever!

[Speaker 2] Are you thinking about writing another book now or taking a break?

[Speaker 1] I need a break! I love writing but my mind is exhausted and I need to just think about nothing for a while. I'll probably bake some pastries to eat.

[Speaker 2] Sounds like a good idea. I recently began a pastry cookery class. There's only been one class so far. We made apple turnovers. They were delicious

[Speaker 1] Oh that sounds delicious! I love apple desserts. What else do you like to make?

[Speaker 2] Have you tried cinnamon rolls? They are my favorite to bake, and eat. What pastries were you thinking of baking?

[Speaker 1] I've tried the pre-made kind that come in a cylinder but never from scratch. I'll have to try making them fresh one day. I mostly bake cupcakes and I love trying different flavors

[Speaker 2] I used to love baking cupcakes with my mom when I was a kid. The exciting part was coating them with frosting. Are you baking them with your kids?

I am a writer. I am creative. I like mystery movies. I write steampunk romance.

I have three kids and a husband.

I just finished writing my book  titled steampunk romance.

[Speaker 1] You can buy it now! its available on major platforms, I am so happy that Barnes and Noble, picked it up! I am so excited. I am hoping that my steampunk romance book does well. What is your current read?

[Speaker 2] It's called "Our Love Story in China".  It's a memoir.  I'll be sure to buy a copy of your book this weekend.

[Speaker 1] Nice! whats the plot? I am on the market for a new read, I finally have time to read something else. Boy! writing my own book was stressful. Thank you so much for the Cinnamon rolls, they were delicious. I tried the recipe you gave me and I almost set my house on fire lol.

[Speaker 2] Haha! Glad you're okay!  The book I'm reading is about  a couple finding eachother during China's cultural revolution. I really like learning about Chinese history so it's right up my alley.

[Speaker 1] Wondering if the cultural revolution is based on facts? I would google the book and read a bit more about it. China has such rich culture and delicious food! my favorite dish has to be fish swimming in pickles, I know super weird name, but its fish fillet in a broth with pickled vegetables and peppercorn, I have never in my life tasted something so bold and delicious.

[Speaker 2] Oh thanks for the advice, I will google it.   Have you don't much chinese cooking?

[Speaker 1] No, I dont know how to cook chinese food, I have a hard time finding some of the ingredients. I did made orange chicken before, it came out okay, but nowhere near to what restaurants serve, do you know how to cook chinsese food?

[Speaker 2] Not really, but I did try making baozi recently, steamed pork buns. They were really good.  I also have a hard time finding the right ingredients.

[Speaker 1] Baozi? what is that? Oh! I lied I know how to make fried dumplins, so so so so delicious! now baking, I cannot bake at alllll. i dont know how people do it.

[Speaker 2] baozi are like bread buns that have filling in the middle and they are cooked in a steamer.  I have had many baking disasters but I still think it's fun.

[Speaker 2] I'm just and aunt, but I feel like my dog is my kid.

[Speaker 1] Pets are basically children. Still a blessing. Are you religious?

[Speaker 2] I consider trips to the beach a religious experience, does that count?

[Speaker 1] I wish my sunday church services were at the beach. My dads a preacher

[Speaker 2] I love cooking big italian meals after church on sunday.

[Speaker 1] That sounds delicious! Usually our post church meal is whatever I can get my kid to eat!

[Speaker 2] I might consider having kids of my own when I finish grad school next year.

[Speaker 1] Focusing on wearing my favorite color, purples helped me to graduate. Good luck!

[Speaker 2] I will keep that in mind. Thanks for the great advice

I have 3 nephews.

I have a dog.

I like trips to the beach.

I am in my last year of grad school.

[Speaker 1] Hi just wanted to ask how is your grad school going.

[Speaker 2] It is very stressful. I will be really glad when I finish up. I feel like I don't have any time to enjoy life right now.

[Speaker 1] It's been stressful for me too with my little one and work at the school. You should plan a beach trip to relax.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I have been thinking about that. I just have to wait until this semester is over so I can have a few down days. It must be tough juggling being a mom and a teacher. Does your little one go to daycare, or stay with family?

[Speaker 1] Right now her dad helps a lot. The people from my dad's church are all really helpful too. Like family.

[Speaker 2] Aww, that's great to have a church family that can help out. My church really helps me de-stress when things are tough at school.

[Speaker 1] Does cooking help you feel less stressed too? What's your favorite Italian dish to make?

[Speaker 2] It does. One of the best ways to de-stress for me when cooking is actually making my own pasta. There is something about the repetitive nature of it that just zones me out. I really like making chicken fettuccini.

[Speaker 1] I enjoy cooking for the same reason. I don't know any Italian recipes, though. I make Mexican food, mostly. Have you ever had tamales?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I love tamales. I hate to admit it, but when I was working on my undergrad, I would buy tamales from a church group who used to sell them to all of us as we left the bar on the weekends. We were easy targets after a night of drinking. Back in my wilder days.

[Speaker 1] That's so funny. I have a really good recipe. It's time-consuming, but maybe you could get your nephews to help and make it a family thing?

[Speaker 2] I bet they would love it, I have always wanted to learn how. I think my dog might be addicted to Mexican food, anytime I make Mexican he just sits and drools staring at me.

I have a one year old child.
I am a first grade teacher.
My dad is a preacher.
I like to cook Mexican food.
I have siblings, and nephews.

I have 3 nephews. I have a dog.

I like trips to the beach.

I cook big italian meals after church on sunday. I love tamales.

I am in my last year of grad school. I'm very busy.

I attend church.

[Speaker 1] Have you had a chance to try that tamale recipe?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I just did. Absolutely love it.; Thanks!

[Speaker 1] I'm glad to hear that, it has been in our family for years. Do you have any good family Italian recipes you could recommend? My family is coming over for dinner next weekend.

[Speaker 2] Do you like lasagna? I love it

[Speaker 1] Everyone loves lasagna! Forward me your recipe when you get a chance. Do you have a garden? I feel like fresh herbs are essential for good Italian meals.

[Speaker 2] Yes, exactly, great call. And the best tomatoes- just like Mexican!

[Speaker 1] I have started a garden recently. I am pretty new at it, so hopefully it works out. I just planted my first batch of cucumbers, chives and zucchini.

[Speaker 2] That's amazing. I should start planting chives. They are great.

[Speaker 1] Oh I used so many chives for Easter dinner last weekend. Did you celebrate it with your family?

[Speaker 2] Yep! Was great seeing mom and dad. How did it go for you>

[Speaker 1] My nephew has been a bit depressed lately, since he is recovering from a bad car accident. It was nice to get the family together to show support and pray for him.

[Speaker 1] I saw the funniest movie yesterday called All Up Hill, starring Meg Ryan. It made me laugh so hard. Have you seen it?

[Speaker 2] No I haven't. But I love Meg Ryan. My favourite movie of hers is When Harry met Sally. So funny!!

[Speaker 1] Meg Ryan is a great actress. You should check out All Up Hill! Have you seen You've Got Mail? That's a classic

[Speaker 2] Yeah I love that one too. So funny to look back from 2021 and see how email was different back then. But also pretty much the same! She made this really weird movie with Tom Hanks called Joe vs the Volcano. You seen that one?

[Speaker 1] Yes it is! It was a whole new world back then!  Oh no I haven't but I have heard of it. What's weird about it?

[Speaker 2] It's all about a volcano that going to explode and they have to make human sacrifices to it. And it's somehow a comedy! I don't think it suited Tom Hanks at all. But she was great of course. Is she still making movies?

[Speaker 1] Haha that is pretty weird! I hope Meg didn't get sacrificed. I am not sure! I haven't seen her in anything lately. Whats your favorite genre of movie?

[Speaker 2] I lover sci-fi. I'm a real nerd!! Did you see Interstellar? That's one of my favourites.

[Speaker 1] I like sci-fi too it's probably my second favorite genre! I didn't I heard it was extremely weird though. You should check out Coherence. It's a low budget sci-fi film but pretty interesting!

[Speaker 2] Ok cool, I haven't heard of it. What's the story about?

[Speaker 1] I don't want to give it away but it's a psychological sci-fi thriller involving multiple universes. It is slightly unsettling but very good!

[Speaker 2] Oooh! Sounds good. A bit like Event Horizon? Did you see that. It's got Laurence Fishburn in it, who is of course awesome!

I love the color green.

I like to play tennis.

I like comedy movies. I watched a Meg Ryan movie called All Up Hill. Sci-fi is my second favorite movie genre.

I am married.

My favorite band is radiated.

I love Meg Ryan. My favorite Meg Ryan movie is When Harry Met Sally. I love the movie You've Got Mail. I love sci-fi movies. Interstellar is one of my favorite movies.

[Speaker 1] Does your spouse like Meg Ryan movies also?

[Speaker 2] Of course. She is basically Sally, and I'm Harry!

[Speaker 1] Ha that movie is a classic. You and your spouse should definitely watch All Up Hill if you two have not already.

[Speaker 2] Oh we will next! Have you seen You've Got Mail?

[Speaker 1] I have not. Maybe someday I will check it out. I think I am going to do a Sci-fi movie binge soon.

[Speaker 2] Oh, what are you planning on watching?

[Speaker 1] I thinking of maybe watching all of the Alien movies. I feel that would be a good start.

[Speaker 2] Oh which is your favorite? I think the first two are much better than the rest

[Speaker 1] The first one! That is my all time favorite movie and an instant classic.

[Speaker 2] That's true. What do you think about Alien 3?

[Speaker 1] That is also a good one, I am looking forward to seeing that one. Are you going to watch any movies?

[Speaker 2] I might watch more Meg Ryan movies. She's foxy haha

[Speaker 2] What do you do? I also read ebooks! Do that between jobs.

[Speaker 1] I'm a stay at home mom that I bake in my home

[Speaker 2] That is cool. I work from home, but rarely have time to bake.

[Speaker 1] I love baking it helps with the stress

[Speaker 2] I may have to try to fit that in then. How many kids

[Speaker 1] 3 one girl and two boys

[Speaker 2] I have 1 and 1. Both grown though. Miss those young years.

[Speaker 1] They grow two darn fast

I read ebooks.

I work from home.

[Speaker 1] I baked a really nice cake yesterday!

[Speaker 2] Oh nice, I love cake! What kind of cake was it?

[Speaker 1] It was a red velvet. The kids loved it. I saw my youngest polishing off the last slice about an hour ago.

[Speaker 2] Wow, it must have been really good! I'm jealous, I haven't had cake for ages. What else do you like to bake?

[Speaker 1] Most anything. I've been working with using yeast for levening, mostly bread and pizza crusts. Do you do any baking?

[Speaker 2] Sometimes I bake with my grandkids when they come visit. We like to make bread too, and we recently made a delicious pumpkin bread! So fluffy and good!

[Speaker 1] Oh nice. Do they visit often?

[Speaker 2] Sadly not since they live quite far from me, but I cries every time they do visit. We always have a lot of fun.

[Speaker 1] It's good you get to do things like that with them. I remember learning how to make biscuits from my Grandma and think about her whenever I make them now.

[Speaker 2] Aw that's sweet. It's nice that we get to keep memories of people we love in the food that reminds us of them. I have a recipe for apple pie that was passed down from my great grandma.

[Speaker 1] Indeed. We never know the impact little things like that have on us until later on. Read any good books lately?

[Speaker 2] Oh yes, I read a book called All The Light We Cannot See. It was beautifully written and so touching. It made me cry

I work from home.

I have two grown kids, a boy and a girl, and five grand kids. I live far from my grandchildren.

I love cake.

[Speaker 1] I have been using Zoom a lot to talk to family members far away. Maybe it would make it easier to connect with your family when they can't visit.

[Speaker 2] That's a wonderful idea, I would love to be able to see my grandchildren more often than I do now.

[Speaker 1] Something I like doing with my friends online is we watch movies together. Maybe you can do the same when you watch your superhero shows with your grandchildren.

[Speaker 2] I like that!  I have no much free time on my hands and I'm sure the grandkids would like it too!

[Speaker 1] Speaking of which, who is your favorite superhero? I got to say mine is Spiderman. My boys love him as well.

[Speaker 2] That's a good choice, I really like Iron man a lot. He's gotta be my favorite, all the Iron man movies are great.

[Speaker 1] Oh ya, very nice choice. That is how my family got into superheroes. It all started with the Iron Man movies.

[Speaker 2] They're a great way to start for people getting into superhero movies, so much action in all of them. How have your kids been doing?

[Speaker 1] They are are doing good. Currently they are all in school, which thankfully gives me time for myself.

[Speaker 2] Definitely! Do you make them anything special for when they come home from school?

[Speaker 1] Nothing really in particular. I talk about their day with them and prep dinner for the family.

[Speaker 2] That's great that you guys eat all together as a family, best time to bond!

[Speaker 2] You KNOW I have! How did you know I love Karate? I actually just started taking classes to get prepared for my role as... SAFETY PATROL OFFICER! I feel so exited to get started. I know I won't use violence to promote safety... but it makes me feel so cool!

[Speaker 1] I am excited for you. Karate is great exercise.

[Speaker 2] Well I feel like I have so much energy!! Sometimes I think my mom would rather me be a painter to use my creative energy, but I say HECK NO mom I wanna be like Jackie Chan! Moms can be so weird sometimes... I love her!

[Speaker 1] That's what moms are for. When did you start karate?

[Speaker 2] Fairly recently. My dad enrolled me in some after school classes over the summer, and then this year I got picked to be part of Safety Patrol and I'm like heck yeah that worked out perfect. Part of it is that I get to learn cool moves and feel strong and the other part is my dad always takes me to get chicken wings after practice so it's a real win-win.

[Speaker 1] Good, I hope you continue doing it for awhile.

[Speaker 2] I feel like when I'm a bit older I'll look at myself and say, yeah, being 10 was awesome. I just wish my mom was more excited about it. I mean, she's a painter, so she's like hey why don't I show you some stuff? And I'm all like but Mom I just got my karate gi on and I don't want it to get dirty!!! But I also kind of feel bad you know?

[Speaker 1] We were going out to dinner the other night and we passed a chicken wings shop. In Paris! I had never noticed one here before. I probably wouldn't have noticed it if you hadn't mentioned chicken wings. :)

[Speaker 2] I bet the chicken wings in Paris are amazing; France is the best!  Have you seen any other sites in Paris?

[Speaker 1] I went to the Louvre last week. It was amazing, I'd never seen so much famous art before.

[Speaker 2] Oh I'm so jealous!  Have you seen the Eiffel Tower?  I hear that at night, it is all lit up and looks absolutely beautiful.

[Speaker 1] That was the first thing I did when I moved here! It really is gorgeous. Do you live near any cool landmarks?

[Speaker 2] Not really...and even if I did, since I'm only 10, I can't really go many places by myself.  Maybe I'll ask my parents to take me on a vacation this summer, and we can check out some famous landmarks.

[Speaker 1] That makes sense. Hopefully your parents will take you somewhere cool this summer! Is there anywhere in particular you want to go?

[Speaker 2] I would really like to go to London, actually!

[Speaker 1] I've been to London! I think you'd love the chicken shops over there. Nando's is a popular one, make sure your parents take you there if you end up going.

[Speaker 2] I'll be sure to do that!  Have you made any new paintings lately?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I painted a picture of my partner yesterday!

[Speaker 2] Oh wow!  I'm not very artistic in general, but I think drawing or painting people is so difficult.  You are so talented!

[Speaker 1] I also take beauty classes. Youtube. Youtube makeup tutorials..

[Speaker 2] Oh that is so cool!

[Speaker 1] What subject. That's awesome!

[Speaker 2] Thanks! Hopefully I'll be able to teach english

[Speaker 1] Highschool, college, or a second language?, second language??

[Speaker 2] Elementary school, actually! I love kids

I am in my thirties.

I take beauty classes. I do Youtube makeup tutorials.

I like to hike and canoe.
I am in my twenties.
I work at a restaurant.
I want to teach English. I love kids.

[Speaker 1] Do you have any kids of your own?

[Speaker 2] No, not yet but I plan on it.

[Speaker 1] I figured you didn't since you said you love kids (ha, ha, just kidding!).  Where do you hike and canoe?  Do you leave near mountains/ lakes?

[Speaker 2] Ha ha too funny! I do live a short drive from the mountains so we go hiking and canoeing often. I like to check out new trails as often as I can. Do you do any outdoor activities?

[Speaker 1] I like to hike, too, in the mountains and love going to the beach.  Fortunately both are just 2 hours away  so I can do both pretty often.

[Speaker 2] It's amazing to live so close, there are so many people who plan vacations around the beauty that we can spend time in so often! Do you ever see any wildlife on your hikes?

[Speaker 1] You are so right, we are fortunate.  Yes, we see deer and occasionally black bears.

[Speaker 2] I love bears, we've seen both black and grizzly. I'd love to see some of the other types around the world too.

[Speaker 1] I like them too---from a distance!  Especially if they have cubs.....

[Speaker 2] The cubs are so cute and playful

[Speaker 1] They really are, it's so tempting to want to feed and cuddle them.  Ahh, nature--so beautiful and yet so potentially dangerous.    Well worth the danger, though.

[Speaker 2] I know! Such a shame more people don't appreciate them, and really they want to be left alone just as much as we do.

I am in my thirties.

I enjoy hiking, especially mountains. I enjoy going to the beach. lives pretty close to both.

I like  bears. I like  nature.

I like to hike and canoe.

I am in my 20s.

I work at a restaurant.

I live pretty close to the mountains, enjoys canoeing and hiking/trails often. I love  bears.

[Speaker 1] Say, do you fancy going on a trail together sometime?

[Speaker 2] That would be great. Work has been pretty stressful lately, I am sure that would help. It is good when you do videos you do not have to interact with people, my coworker has been driving me crazy lately.

[Speaker 1] What has he or she been doing?

[Speaker 2] He is eating food off of the plates of customers. It happens all the time! Either sneaks a few fries from a freshly made plate, or sometimes just eats off the leftover customer plates. He is insanely rich though, his dad is a billionaire. It just does not make sense. I am not sure what to do anymore.

[Speaker 1] Oh wow, that's crazy.  What have you done to try to rectify the situation?

[Speaker 2] Well, I don't think he is doing anything wrong if he eats the leftovers -- it's a little weird, but at least there is less waste. I am trying to go zero waste in my life, so I can roll with that. I am more not sure what to do about him taking the freshly made food that customers will eat: that seems like some kind of a health code violation, and just wrong. What would you do?

[Speaker 1] I think you have to report it if it's a violation of the code

[Speaker 2] I have a crush on the manager, so I am not sure if he will think less of me if I complain. But you are probably right. Do you ever have weird conflict situations when you take beauty classes?

[Speaker 1] I think she or he (your manager) will actually see you as responsible for it. And sometimes haha.

[Speaker 2] I just really need to keep this job. My cat has been sick lately, which has definitely put a dent in my wallet. Do you have any pets?

[Speaker 1] Oh my. Yes, I have two cats actually!

[Speaker 1] Lets brainstorm some locations to travel to that have exotic animals that we can see.

[Speaker 2] I have always wanted to go on a safari.  I think they have some good ones in Kenya.  What do you think?

[Speaker 1] I think that's a great idea! I'd love to see exotic animals with you but safari's scare me a little though. Are they dangerous?

[Speaker 2] I guess they're a little bit dangerous, but we'll just do a little bit of research to find the most reputable one.  I hope I'll get to see a zebra.  Do you think ostriches live in Africa?

[Speaker 1] I hope I get to see a lion eating a zebra! I would really want to see a rhino too. I am not sure. Do you like ostriches a lot?

[Speaker 2] Oh, I don't want to see that!  That will make me so sad.  Yes, a rhino would be cool to see.  Ostriches are pretty cool.  They lay massive eggs.  I wonder what their eggs taste like.  You could make a huge omelet out of one of those!

[Speaker 1] I like seeing nature in action! Do you think people eat ostrich eggs? I wonder where they are commonly eaten. I think that's too much egg for me. Do emu's lay eggs?

[Speaker 2] I have no idea if people eat ostrich eggs.  I love eggs, so that would be a great breakfast for me.  I don't know if emus lay eggs.   I know that penguins do.  I'd love to go see penguins in the Arctc.

[Speaker 1] I would too. Penguins are fascinating. Did you ever watch that documentary about penguins? It's called March of the Penguins.

[Speaker 2] Yes I loved that film!  I really enjoy documentaries.  Have you seen any others recently that you liked?

[Speaker 1] I love documentaries too. I just watched a documentary on UFOs called The Phenomenon. It was really eye opening. There's some weird stuff going on we don't know anything about!

[Speaker 2] Oh wow, I'll have to check that out.  That sounds really interesting.  I liked the Documentary Blackfish about the orca whales in captivity in SeaWorld.

I am a bargain hunter.

I am organized at home and work.

My favorite animal is the ostrich. I am a little scared of safari's. I like seeing nature in action. I love the documentary March of the Penguins.

I enjoy documentaries. I love the March of the Penguins. I love the Documentary Blackfish about orca whales.

[Speaker 1] Where would you like to go travelling if you could?

[Speaker 2] I would love to travel to Africa some day. The Plains would be a wonderful place to see zebra and ostrich. It's a shame that you don't travel much i'm sure you would enjoy it.

[Speaker 1] Africa! I am surprised to hear that, even those who are fated to be born there are searching for ways to run away from it. Just because of zebra?

[Speaker 2] Yes because of the zebra. I don't think i would want to stay there forever. Just a few weeks on a safari. i mean going to Antarctica would be pretty neat as well. I do love the penguins!

[Speaker 1] That is true. Will you take me along?

[Speaker 2] Absolutely! It's no fun going on a trip without a friend. I will have to get started on planning something for the future. It makes me so excited to know there is a trip in my future!

[Speaker 1] That is so generous of you. But will there be ostrich there too, also, do you remember I'm a bit scared of safari's?

[Speaker 2] Oh! I thought that we were discussing a trip to Antarctica to see the penguins.

[Speaker 1] Yes. Are there no ostrich in Antarctica? What about Africa?

[Speaker 2] We can go to Africa too. I would be excited to go on any trip.

[Speaker 1] That is great to hear. When in particular do you plan to make this trip?

[Speaker 2] Well it will take a while to plan so probably in about a year or so.

[Speaker 2] That is good. What do you like to do?

[Speaker 1] My friend lives new york, I try to visit a few times a year

[Speaker 2] Ok. You are not really answering any of my questions.

[Speaker 1] I just work and go out to clubs

[Speaker 2] Ok. Well I was a cheerleader in high school.

[Speaker 1] How long ago were you in high school

[Speaker 2] About 5 years ago now. I wish I could go back.

I love eating barbeque sandwiches and pizza puffs.

I enjoy hanging out with my imaginary friends as a hobby.

I don't have too many friends in the us yet, but I'm going to summer camp and I hope to make friends then! I also think that I may make friends as soccer in the fall.

I am in 3rd grade.

I am a french girl, but I moved to the us last year.

I live with my parents and my little brother.

I like to play soccer, draw and read asteria.

[Speaker 2] Sure. I'm from france and in 3rd grade. I've not met many other girls here.

[Speaker 1] Where do you stay? I live close to miley cyrus and pnb rock

[Speaker 2] Wow! I live with my little brother and parents. But I am going to summer camp.

[Speaker 1] We can go eat barbeque and pizzas together. I love it so much

[Speaker 2] Yummy! Then we can play soccer, I like that and drawing and reading asteria.

[Speaker 1] That will be great. I love hanging out with new friends.

[Speaker 2] I moved here ago, so maybe I'll make more friends in soccer this fall.

[Speaker 1] Oh great. Whats your favorite tv show?

[Speaker 1] Tom and jerry and I am watching it right now

[Speaker 2] Ll. Now that's my favorite type of 19 year old. We will be friends.

[Speaker 2] Ca not wait to talk again. Thank you for being my friend, jovannie.

My name is Jovannie. I'm 19 years old.
I love barbecue and pizza.
My favorite TV show is Tom and Jerry.

I have a younger brother.

My hobbies are playing soccer, drawing and reading.

My favorite TV shows are Teen Wolf and Dr. Who.

[Speaker 1] Have you made any new friends here in the US yet?

[Speaker 2] Not that many yet. I'm trying to get to know the kids in my class, most of them are pretty nice. I usually end up playing with my younger brother at recess though.

[Speaker 1] I'm sure you'll make lots of friends soon. How has it been getting adjusted to life in the US?

[Speaker 2] Well, I miss France a lot but my parents say I'll get used to it. Have you watched Tom and Jerry lately, I'm watching it now and thought of you.

[Speaker 1] That's great. Yeah I'm a big fan and have been watching it a lot lately. They even have a Tom and Jerry movie coming out this year. Have you seen the trailer for it?

[Speaker 2] No, I haven't but I would like to see that movie. I like them too. You know my favorites though, Teen Wolf and Dr. Who, I'm waiting for those to come on.

[Speaker 1] I haven't seen Teen Wolf, but Dr Who is really fun. What do you think of the new season?

[Speaker 2] I like it a lot. I always hate when the season ends but am always excited for the new one. Seems like I am always at soccer practice lately though when it's on.

[Speaker 1] That can be annoying. Have you tried recording it so you can watch it later?

[Speaker 2] We still have to get a DVR then I can. So what have you been doing, my mom said you guys are having a barbecue party on Saturday and we're invited. I can't wait.

[Speaker 1] Yup. Really looking forward to it. I love barbeque and my mom is a great cook. Have you ever had barbeque before? It's a great American cuisine.

[Speaker 2] I'm not sure if I have. Is there going to be pizza there too?

My name is Jovannie. I'm 19 years old.

I love barbecue and pizza.

My favorite TV show is Tom and Jerry. I think Dr. Who is fun. I have not seen Teen Wolf.

I am having a barbecue party. I love barbecue. My mom is a great cook.

I recently moved to the US. I'm a girl from France. I'm in 3rd grade. I have a younger brother.

I don't have many friends here yet.  I miss living in France.

I like Tom and Jerry. My favorite shows to watch are Teen Wolf and Dr. Who. I don't have a way to record my shows.

I play soccer.

I have a mom. I don't think I've had barbecue before.

[Speaker 1] When do you have soccer practice?

[Speaker 2] I have soccer practice four days a week after school. Every day except Wednesday. Then we play games on Saturday. I'm hoping to make some friends on my soccer team and at school. Any advice?

[Speaker 1] I would say work hard but it seems like you already are! Keep your spirits up, the only thing that could hold you back now is doubting yourself

[Speaker 2] Thank you. I feel quite homesick for France sometimes. I really miss the food, but my mom is a good cook!

[Speaker 1] I can only imagine. Hey, you've never had bbq right? I'm throwing a barbecue, you should come!

[Speaker 2] That would be fun! I would like to try barbecue. My mom can bring some freshly-baked French bread to share, if you'd like. Will there be any other kids there?

[Speaker 1] Yes, and feel free to bring anyone you like! I know it can be scary walking into a gathering alone.

[Speaker 2] Thank you! I am a bit shy in new places, but my mom tells me I talk too much once I get to know someone!

[Speaker 1] Oh that's not true at all! You're a great listener, too. And we all are shy in new places, don't worry about it. You're braver than I am, for sure! Everyone will be focused on the food, anyway

[Speaker 2] Americans do love their food! I hope the weather will be nice for your barbecue party. I will bring my soccer ball in case anyone wants to play!

[Speaker 2] Artistic kind! I spend my time watching british shows and movies. I love them

[Speaker 1] I am... Creating things that make people happy also makes me happy!

[Speaker 2] That's so nice! What do you do for work?

[Speaker 1] I try to sell my handmade items at the fair!

[Speaker 2] Do u make a good living? I retired from computer programming.

[Speaker 1] I make enough to help buy groceries and so forth. How did you like that job?

[Speaker 2] Honestly it was boring! Yours sounds so much more intriguing

[Speaker 1] It helps fill my time when the boys are at school... And now that muffin died...

[Speaker 2] Oh muffin was your pet? My twin grandchildren have a cat named that.

I have a husband and two sons. My sons are attending school.

I had a pet named Muffin that passed away.

I have a grandson and a granddaughter. I love animals.

I am 77.

I love watching British TV and movies in my spare time.

I am retired. I used to be a computer programmer. I felt my job was boring.

I have twin grandchildren.

[Speaker 1] I attended a fair this weekend and sold some of my homemade jewelry pieces. I made almost enough to cover all of our groceries this month.

[Speaker 2] I'm glad to hear that. You keep up the good work and hopefully it will pay off for you in the coming months.

[Speaker 1] Thank you! I'm proud of my work. I put a lot of love into the jewelry I make.

[Speaker 2] It gets overlooked, too often, how much a person pours of themselves into their work. Have you tried selling online, like through Etsy?

[Speaker 1] No, I've never heard of Etsy! I'll have to check that out. Our family isn't exactly wealthy so any money I make would really help

[Speaker 2] It's kind of like an online mall, you set up your own storefront and it's mostly hand crafted items. Of course they do take a cut, but helps you reach a wider audience.

[Speaker 1] Yes, I imagine I could reach a lot more people that way. That's exciting! Do you ever sell things on Etsy?

[Speaker 2] No, one of my grandkids sells his glass figurines and stuff on there. If you get started on there be sure to send me a link, I'd love to check out your stuff and I'm sure my friends would be interested as well.

[Speaker 1] Oh I definitely will! You should send me a link to your grandkid's glass figurines too. They sound interesting and it's cool that he makes them!

[Speaker 2] I will. I'll get him to keep an eye out as well, I'm sure he'd be glad to help you get started.

[Speaker 1] That's so sweet, thanks!

[Speaker 2] Not a problem, I'm glad to help. How's your family doing?

I have a husband and two sons in school.

I like making things like art and jewelry. I  knit. I don't make a lot of money from selling the handmad items I make.

I sold jewelry pieces at a fair. I put a lot of love into the jewelry I make. I haven't heard of Etsy. My family is not wealthy.

I am 77. I have twin grandchildren: a grandson and a granddaughter. I love animals.

I don't sell at Etsy.   My grandson makes glass figurines.

[Speaker 1] So, I have checked about Etsy.

[Speaker 2] Do you do earrings, bracelets or specialize in some type of jewelry?

[Speaker 1] Oh yes. I make all types of jewelry. Do you love jewelry?

[Speaker 2] A bit -  my wife loves it. Don't you get bored sitting a a fair all day?

[Speaker 1] I do not bother much. I've gotten used to it. What do you do to kill boredom?

[Speaker 2] Watch some great TV crime drama shows and go out playing with my grandsons. Sorry about Muffin -what kind of pet was muffin?

[Speaker 1] Muffin is a cat. Do you love cats?

[Speaker 2] HA - My error - I said grandsons - probably because mu granddaughter is such a tomboy! I love cats - had one for 17 years. Are you going to get another one?

[Speaker 1] I should soon. what's your cat's name?

[Speaker 2] Savvy - because he seemed to understand so much. He died last year.  So, do you sell your art along with your jewelry?

[Speaker 1] Oh! so sorry about savvy. Yes i do. Why do you ask?

[Speaker 1] I see what you mean when you say twirl dough

[Speaker 2] Couldn't pick up the drumsticks tonight no matter how much I wanted to.

[Speaker 1] They need to make some sort of automation for that I love technology

[Speaker 2] My younger brothers both work in fancy offices. Just like you?

[Speaker 1] I wish I could work the stock market but I cant play it well

[Speaker 2] You play any instruments at all? I can teach you the drums.

[Speaker 1] That would be awesome I play guitar. Play guitar and read the news

[Speaker 1] I do enjoy it. I prefer to be outside painting

[Speaker 2] I like the arts too. I'm a pretty big radiohead fan. Do you like any bands?

[Speaker 1] I pretty much like everything. Not picky

[Speaker 2] Oh, ok. Do you have any pets?

[Speaker 1] I have 3 cats. They watch me practice arm wrestling

[Speaker 2] Your cats sound like fun. How often do you work out?

[Speaker 1] About two times a day. I've to stay strong

[Speaker 2] Why do you have to stay strong?

[Speaker 1] To arm wrestle. I like to beat everyone

[Speaker 2] Are you a competitive arm wrestler, then?

I make maps for a living. I miss nursing.

I like painting outside.

I like most all music.

I have 3 cats.

I work out twice a day. I need to stay strong to arm wrestle.

I have two dogs.

I have never met a cartographer.

I like the arts. I like radiohead.

[Speaker 1] How are your dogs doing today?

[Speaker 2] They are wonderful! As always. It must be nice to be a dog. How are the cats making out?

[Speaker 1] Yeah, if I was reincarnated I would probably want to be a pet. The cats are pretty good. Although Jack has recently decided he doesn't like Jill, and they've been fighting a bit. It got so bad that I had to take Jill to the vet to get her ear patched up!!

[Speaker 2] Crazy cats. Where is the third? Hiding out? You should try putting some music on for them and see if they calm down.

[Speaker 1] Yeah Bill is the third cat and he's just keep his head down. He doesn't want it bitten off! I tried music, but it only seemed to get Jack more worked up. But watching sports on TV calms him down. Crazy! Maybe its seeing people hit other professionally that gets his anger out lol!!

[Speaker 2] Hey, whatever works right! It works for me sometimes. Were you able to help with the ear at all with your nursing background?

[Speaker 1] A little bit, but I didn't have the right antiseptic or the right bandages. I really should have more supplies though. You wouldn't believe it, but arm wrestling gives you a lot of cuts and bruises!

[Speaker 2] That one would supprise me! Keeping up with the workouts?

[Speaker 1] Yeah, trying to. I've got a tournament coming up in a few months, so I've got to keep in shape. So I'm not getting much time for painting these days.

[Speaker 2] How has the weather been? Good enough for painting outside? Its been cold here, which is odd for down here.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, we've had some sunny days, so it would have been good to get out the canvas. I'm halfway through painting the big oak tree in our back yard, but it'll be old and dead by the time I'm finished and they live for a hundred years!

[Speaker 2] So how does painting trees fit with drawing up maps? Are there any similaritys?

I like painting outside. I like most all music.

I have 3 cate: Jack, Jill,  Bill.

I didn't have the right antiseptic or the right bandages.

I've got a tournament coming up in a few months. I'm not getting time for painting these days. I'm halfway through painting the big oak tree in our back yard.

I have never met a cartographer. I like the arts. I like radiohead.

I have  2 dogs. I like to be a dog.

I am in a cold place.

[Speaker 1] What will you purchase for your pets.

[Speaker 2] I'm thinking about getting them a big cage to run around in outside, instead of being stuck in the house all day. Just like humans need to be outside, I think dogs do too.

[Speaker 1] Thats a good idea, its probably much cheaper than fencing in your entire yard!

[Speaker 2] Exactly. If I could afford it, I would definitely have a fenced in yard for them to run around in. Those zoomies are something else haha. Speaking of being outside, how is your painting of the big oak coming along?

[Speaker 1] Its coming along nicely! Its a ton of work but its going to be worth it in the end. Its so peaceful just painting in the nice weather being outside all day.

[Speaker 2] Do you have a particular kind of music you listen too while you paint? I find jazz music get my creative juices flowing.

[Speaker 1] I like jazz sometimes, I usually just put all of my saved music on shuffle and listen to whatever comes on. How has your business been recently?

[Speaker 2] Oh, the spontaneity of the shuffle. I like it! Well, with work, it's actually going really well. We picked up 3 new clients last week, which means more work but also more pay and a wider network of clients. If it keeps up, I may be able to afford that fenced in yard one day lol.

[Speaker 1] Haha thats true, Im so happy that you're business is doing well. Im sure that the dogs would like the big cage or the fenced in yard as long as they get to run!

[Speaker 2] You are right! They are none the wiser haha. How is your wrestling training going? Did you ever find the right antiseptic and bandages?

[Speaker 1] Training is going really well, the two workouts a day are totally helping. I found the antiseptic and bandages online and they should be arriving in the mail on Tuesday.

[Speaker 2] Awesome! That's good news! I've actually never to an arm wrestling competition. I am mainly into baseball if any sport. How long have you been arm wrestling?

[Speaker 2] Oh no, what happened this week?

[Speaker 1] My doctor said I only have 6 months left to live.

[Speaker 2] That's some messed up news. Why is that?

[Speaker 1] Turns out, I've a really severe lactose allergy. It has done incredible damage.

[Speaker 2] And an allergy is now a death sentence?

[Speaker 1] I suppose. I am sorry... I am terrible at normal conversation!

[Speaker 2] Me 2, I love reading instead of talking myself

[Speaker 1] I like to cook keeps my mind off of things,

[Speaker 2] I don't cook, get enough of that while waitressing, I play soccer

[Speaker 1] Ah, a busy person! That's awesome though. Soccer is fun to watch.

[Speaker 2] And its fun to play too


I like wide, open spaces.

[Speaker 1] Hiking. I really like the outdoors and open spaces.

[Speaker 1] Subway? I prefer only locally sourced food.

[Speaker 2] Its next to my work so its easier then sanctioned

[Speaker 1] Cool. I keep a garden at home. I live on 5 acres.

[Speaker 2] I am guilty of starbucks as well plus my baby brother works there

[Speaker 1] You are way too urban! Did you know I own 10 alpacas?

[Speaker 2] No but my grandfather raises wagyu

[Speaker 1] Oh cool. I love farm animals!

[Speaker 2] Was not always urban but dad died so I came back to help mom

[Speaker 1] Sorry to hear that! You are ok?

[Speaker 2] Yeah just hard putting my figurines from childhood in boxes

I wasn't urban. I became urban. I came back to help mom.

I have figurines from childhood.

[Speaker 1] do you like to visit my garden sometime?

[Speaker 2] Sounds like you have a lovely home and garden.  Alpacas are adorable.  Are they just pets or do you shear them?

[Speaker 1] I do shear them but instead of selling the wool I donate it to local artisians who make product out of it. Mostly they are pets, They follow me around when I go into the fields.

[Speaker 2] They sound so adorable.  I can't imaging having 10 alpacas follow me around like dogs--I would love it.  And that's great you donate the wool--do you get a nice sweater out of it ?

[Speaker 1] So I've been promised. I like to help out anyone with talent since I have none at all. If I kept it I would have to learn to spin, or weave or knit and I' not inclined to do so.

[Speaker 2] I'm with you--I feel like a talentless wonder.  Glad I'm not the only one.  Since you like locally sourced food, do you think about growing your own since you own all that land?

[Speaker 1] I have a small garden with carrots, potatos, turnips and such but mostly I forget to take care of it so I guess the highest crop yeild is weeds.

[Speaker 2] You have a great sense of humor!  I kill my house plants (or my cat does) so we have something else in common,

[Speaker 1] I know, even as a kid I couldn't grow anything except acne. I was good at that!

[Speaker 2] See, you do have talent!  You talking about your alpacas makes me want to gather all of my cat's fur and donate it to a local artisan to make coats or sweaters (only in gray).

[Speaker 1] Well there nothing wrong with gray. I'm starting to turn that color slowly. Believe it or not I used to be young.

[Speaker 2] Me too!  And I meant to say, gather my cat's LOOSE fur.....

I serve on my city council.

I go hiking. I like the outdoors and open spaces. I have a garden at home. I live on 5 acres. I own 10 alpacas and I donate their wool. I like to donate to local artisans. I love farm animals. I prefer only locally sourced food.

I feel that I have no talent.

I have a grey cat. I am not good at taking care of plants.

[Speaker 1] One of my Alpacas had her baby! I know you said you loved them. Would you like this one? I can show you how to raise it.

[Speaker 2] I would love your new Alpaca! They are so cute. I would love for you to teach me how to raise it. Have you thought of a name for it yet?

[Speaker 1] I am a big fan of Ted Danson, so I thought Danson would be a cute name. But if you want to take it, you can give the name. What would you call it?

[Speaker 2] I would have to take a look at the alpaca to come up with a name that I think fits it. But, I could see an alpaca looking like Ted Danson. So, for now lets assume its name is Danson!

[Speaker 1] Totally agree, the name should come from the way it looks / acts. How did you decide on your cats name?

[Speaker 2] Well, as you know its name is fluffy. But, that is only her short name. Her full name is magical fluffy space wizard the third. She is named after her grandfather magical fluffy space wizard. Which, we named that because of his ability to hide in dark spaces but yet his eyes seemed to glow like a star in space.

[Speaker 1] Haha I love that! Now that sounds like a fitting name! Naming things is pretty fun, my neighbor names his plants.

[Speaker 2] Yea. It is rather fun to name things. I've never named a plant though. I do have a bunch of house plants so maybe I should start thinking of some more names. I know your in to gardening, do you name your garden plants?

[Speaker 1] Not really. I mostly garden food (tomatoes, cucumbers, chives etc), so naming doesn't seem that fitting. Ever since I turned vegan, my garden has really been a great source of nourishment for me.

[Speaker 2] That is great! I really should do some more gardening myself. I'm afraid to do it because I struggle to even raise some of the easiest to grow indoor house plants. Could you help me?

[Speaker 1] My partner taught me how to garden. What I find is, the most important thing is light. A good starter for an indoor plant are actually vines, they will resist any conditions and keep growing everywhere!

[Speaker 2] That is a great tip. I'll have to come over and observe you in your garden some time so I can start gaining more confidence. I really think it would be cool to start growing some tomato plants!

[Speaker 1] Hi, I am moira. Who am I speaking to?

[Speaker 2] I am tara. I am really thin, almost like a skeleton.

[Speaker 1] Oh my. Are you alright? I have been dieting but I have not lost that much weight.

[Speaker 2] I try and eat but food allergies. I am allergic to shrimp.

[Speaker 1] Me too, actually. My husband loves shrimp though. How old are you?

[Speaker 2] I am 43 with long legs!

[Speaker 1] I'm 32 with short legs

[Speaker 2] Being so tall makes me feel like a dump.

[Speaker 1] I'm sorry.. I think tall people look beautiful. I married one

[Speaker 2] That is so nice! My husband is tall too!

[Speaker 1] I am sure he appreciates your height. How long have you been married?

[Speaker 2] We got married in 2010. He's a pain but I love him.

I am Moira.

[Speaker 1] Guess what! I've lost 2 pounds since last week.

[Speaker 2] Good for you, what have you been doing to help in your weight loss?

[Speaker 1] I've been following a new diet and I've been trying to work out more. I'm so excited about my progress.

[Speaker 2] Keep it up, I'm sure you'll get to where you want to be in no time. Just stay dedicated to your goal.

[Speaker 1] I will, thanks for the encouragement! What do you normally eat to stay in shape?

[Speaker 2] I try to avoid eating too much bread. But I think cutting out sugary drinks, like sodas to be the biggest help. I do love a cold glass of milk though.

[Speaker 1] Cold milk is good! I used to always dip warm cookies in it, it was so good. I can't do that anymore since I've been dieting

[Speaker 2] That's true. Over indulging is likely the biggest contributor. It's hard to stop with just two or three. I'd blame my hubby for always buying the milk but I can only blame myself, lol.

[Speaker 1] It's just really hard to stop when something tastes good. I have terrible impulse control and always end up eating more. How do you control yourself?

[Speaker 2] I think it comes from forcing myself to stick with a routine. After so long, it doesn't really feel like a chore, so to speak.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, once things become part of your routine, it gets easier. The hard part is establishing that routine in the first place lol

[Speaker 2] Yea, I used to drink sodas all the time and then stopped buying them and drank primarily water. Now sodas just don't taste good anymore.

I am Moira.

I am not thin. I've been following a new diet. I have lost a little weight. I lost 2 lbs since last week. I've been trying to workout more. I am excited about my progress.

I force myself to stick to a routine until it doesn't feel like a chore.

[Speaker 1] I lost another 2 pounds this week! I'm so happy with my progress!

[Speaker 2] Congratulations! What kind of workouts have you been doing?

[Speaker 1] Thank you! I mainly do jogging and yoga 5 times a week.

[Speaker 2] Wow, that's a lot! Good for you. I like to jog, but I find I am too tall for lots of yoga postures. How far do you usually jog?

[Speaker 1] I generally try to do 2 miles every time. Eventually I hope to do more when I feel better in fit.

[Speaker 2] That's great! I am going to run a 5k race in May. Maybe you could join me!

[Speaker 1] Oh nice! I am unsure if I feel ready to do a 5k race. I feel like I need to train more to be able to do so.

[Speaker 2] You still have plenty of time to train! It's only a big longer than what you are doing now. We can walk part of it too, if you need! My favorite part about running races is the snacks at the end.

[Speaker 1] Hmm, you know I think I will join you. I should be able to do it with you by my side. Thank you!

[Speaker 2] That's the spirit. I believe in you! We can go for lunch afterwards as a treat for our hard work.

[Speaker 1] That sounds very lovely. I do appreciate it very much. It sounds like a lot of fun.

[Speaker 2] It will be. I think you will be surprised with how strong you feel, especially if you keep making progress like you have been.

[Speaker 1] Hi again! Did you manage to create any nice new recipes?

[Speaker 2] Not really, the weather is too cold to go out to get fresh ingredients.  How is your game going?

[Speaker 1] Meh. Playing GTA is getting repetitive, I think I'm going to switch to the Sims. Too bad you don't like video games, I wish you could play with me :(

[Speaker 2] No, it's too much stress on my eyes.  I am so near sighted already.  I can't imagine playing computer game that much and what could happen.  Is your wife alright with you playing that much video game?

[Speaker 1] Haha yes! Surprisingly. Since we started working different shifts it's been so much easier to do the things we enjoy. In fact she's been starting to play more with me recently - Also, she just told me she wants to thank you for suggesting hunter green for our living room! It looks great!

[Speaker 2] So what shift you are in?  Both of you are off on the weekends?

[Speaker 1] She's one Mon-Wed and I'm Mon-Thurs. But knowing that you're off on weekends, we were wondering if you would want to come down this weekend to meet our family? We've been telling everyone about your amazing cooking, of course, if you are willing too...

[Speaker 2] That sounds good.  So how many people will be there so I could prepare the menu.

[Speaker 1] 10 adults plus three kiddos who would love to clean up after you lol

[Speaker 2] Anyone have any type of food allergies or special food requirments?

[Speaker 1] Not that I know of! Oh I forgot, It's my little cousins birthday this weekend. Could you also make a Fortnite themed cake for him? I'll pay you around $1000 for everything.

[Speaker 2] Sure, that won't be much problem but what time things need to be ready?

I am a  married man.

I play video games. I play GTA. I'm going to start playing The Sims.

My wife and I work different shifts. My wife works Mon-Wed. I work Mon-Thurs. My wife has been playing video games with me lately. Our living room is hunter green.

It's my little cousin's birthday this weekend. My cousin likes Fortnight.

I work as a personal chef.

My favorite color is hunter green.

I do not like to play video games. Videos games are too hard on my eyes. I am near sighted.

[Speaker 1] Did your cousin like the Fortnight birthday cake?

[Speaker 2] He loved it so much, he was so surprised. The look on his face was priceless. Are they doing a fortnight cake for your cousins birthday?

[Speaker 1] No, unfortunately, the chef in the cake shop said they would not be able to make it in time. what kind of food do you cook for people?

[Speaker 2] Thats too bad! I usually work for a bunch of different events for people. The most popular dishes are Italian foods.

[Speaker 1] Nice! My wife really likes Italian foods, especially the pasta. I'm more into my spicy food, but we don't get to eat together much as we work seperate shifts

[Speaker 2] I enjoy both pastas and spicy, but my favorite is chicken parm by far. Its tough that you guys dont get to eat together. Im sure you get a lot more time to play GTA though.

[Speaker 1] haha, yes. Has the weather improved round your way yet, so you can get out and about.

[Speaker 2] Its finally starting to warm up but during the night its still pretty cold. Hows the weather been out by you?

[Speaker 1] It's cold! And our apartment is really old, so me and the wife are on the sofa with a blanket playing Sims. lol

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a lot of fun though! Is that her favorite video game to play with you?

[Speaker 1] Yeah, she likes sims, but i'm more into my GTA. it's a shame your not able to play, as it's lots of fun

[Speaker 2] I know, I wish I could. It would give me something to do during the winter.
