I work in the office, 9 till 5.

This summer I went on vacation to italy.

I live in a big city.

Sometimes I go to yoga classes.

I like italian cusine.

My favorite hobby is chess.

I just dyed my hair hot pink with purple highlights.

Not a day goes by that I don t drink four mountain dews.

I enjoy movies about aliens invading the earth.

Sometimes, I have sword fights with strangers in the park.

I have a basic job.
I visited europe in june.
I reside in a large metropolis.
I want to get in shape.
I love spaghetti.

I play board games.

I've neon colors.

I love soda.

Science fiction flicks are my favorite!.

I periodically engage in fantasy battles with people I don't know in public places.

[Speaker 1] Good morning, how are you today?

[Speaker 2] I'm doing well, how about yourself?

[Speaker 1] I am good, just getting ready to head to work

[Speaker 2] That sucks. Or maybe not. Do you like your job?

[Speaker 1] I enjoy it most of the time, I've an office and work nine to five

[Speaker 2] Do you find that you get bored with that?

[Speaker 1] Not bored, but sometimes stressed. That is why I take yoga

[Speaker 2] Oh, I see. When I need to relax I've fake sword fights in the park.

[Speaker 1] That sounds fun. Maybe I can watch sometime and we can go have an italian dinner later

[Speaker 2] Is italian your favorite cuisine?

[Speaker 1] Oh yes, for sure. I live in the city so there are many italian restaurants available

[Speaker 2] Ah, I prefer asian cuisine, especially thai food.

[Speaker 1] I enjoy that as well

[Speaker 2] I also love mountain dew. I drink a ton of it. Every day.

[Speaker 1] That is my favorite soda!

[Speaker 2] I'd say I drink at least four every day.

I work in an office.
I do yoga.
Italian food is my favorite.
I enjoy thai food.
Mountain dew is my favorite soda.

I fake fight with swords in the park.

I like asian food, especially thai food.

I drink four mountain dews a day.

[Speaker 1] What do you do for a job?

[Speaker 2] I am a VR game tester. Today I tested new Fruit Ninja VR, heh it felt almost like I was in a park last week. What's your job exactly?

[Speaker 1] I just work for a landscaping company, I'm basically the office administrator, handling paper work and such.

[Speaker 2] Do you enjoy it? Do you have development opportunities in your place? I have non in mine lol

[Speaker 1] I don't mind it.  It's a job.  And I like being organized, and such.  But yeah, there's not any room for advancement, I'm not trying to be a landscaper lol so just having more experience as an office worker under my belt, helps.

[Speaker 2] From the other side if you get a promotion you will drink much more mountain dew. Anyway have you been in new Thai restaurant 2 blocks east from police station? I've red reviews and I think we should go there one day

[Speaker 1] Haha, that's true!  Although, I don't know how healthy that would be!  I honestly have not tried any new restaurants recently, have you?

[Speaker 2] Nowadays I only order a delivery. A little bit afraid to go outside to be fair. But I think I could do it as a special occasion or you could come to my place on weekend to play few games and order some food?

[Speaker 1] Oh, that sounds like a great idea!  Order some food and play some games.  What sort of movies do you like to watch?

[Speaker 2] I really enjoy Sci-Fi movies and fantasy, sometimes mystic. I am now looking forward to watch Kong vs Godzilla. Have you seen a trailer?

[Speaker 1] I haven't.  I really liked the old school godzilla movies like from the 70's

[Speaker 2] Which one Japanese or American Godzilla?

I do yoga.

Mountain dew is my favorite soda.

I work in landscaping. I am the office administrator in an office.

I am organized.

I like to play games.

I fake fight with swords in the park.

I drink four mountain dews a day.

I am afraid to go out. I like to play games.

[Speaker 1] I just saw the trailer for the new Kong vs Godzilla movie! It does look good.

[Speaker 2] I'm excited about it. Did you see the Kong movie with Tom Hiddleston

[Speaker 1] I did - it wasn't my favorite one but I think they did a great job...nothing beats the classics.  How was the Fruit Ninja testing today?

[Speaker 2] The VR is really a huge advancement. But honestly, I worry I'm going to chop someone in the face! We are going to do consumer testing soon. Would you be interested?

[Speaker 1] LOL well that must mean that it's good.  Are you kidding, I would LOVE to do a consumer test, so cool! How are the graphics, in your opinion?

[Speaker 2] It looks exactly like real fruit. You might even worry you'd hurt your hard chopping. When are you free next week?

[Speaker 1] I get off work every night at 5:00 otherwise this weekend I'm pretty free.  Just let me know!  Afterwards we can check out that new Thai restaurant, my treat as a thank you.

[Speaker 2] That would be great. Which one are you thinking of?

[Speaker 1] Siam Treasure, have you been to that one before? In Chicago.

[Speaker 2] I haven't, but if you've heard good things about it I trust you. You'd know right>

[Speaker 1] I've been there plenty of times to know its a great place.  And don't worry - they have mountain dew!

[Speaker 2] LOL. I actually prefer Thai Iced tea in that setting. When in Rome right?

I do yoga.

Mountain dew is my favorite soda.

I am organized.

I like to play games.

I have not seen the Kong vs Godzilla trailer. I like old Godzilla movies. I just saw the trailer for the Kong vs. Godzilla movie and it looks good.

I fake fight with swords in the park.

I drink four mountain dews a day.

I test VR games. I tested Fruit Ninja VR today. I have no development opportunities at my job.

I like Sci-Fi, fantasy, and mystic movies. I'm excited about the Kong vs. Godzilla movie.

I like to drink Thai iced tea when at a Thair restaurant.

[Speaker 1] That makes sense. Is there a certain Thai dish you usually get?

[Speaker 2] I love me some yellow curry! Especially with avocados in it. Sounds weird, but soooo good. Especially over some jasmine rice.

[Speaker 1] That sounds good. I'll use the opportunity to pay for the meal with my new credit card that I just recently got approved for. I want to build up my credit. You don't get anxiety in restaurants, do you?

[Speaker 2] I don't LOVE being in them. It really would be great to order food and chill at my place. Haha if you're paying, I will let you pick. Do you have a go-to thai dish?

[Speaker 1] I don't remember the names of any of the dishes I have ordered in the past. I remember once I had a dish with rice and beef in some kind of sauce that I liked. Do you always order the same thing when you go to a restaurant?

[Speaker 2] Not always, but if they have that tea, it is a MUST. I assume that new place will have it. Have you checked out their menu?

[Speaker 1] I looked at their menu online and it said they have that tea. However, sometimes information online isn't up to date. I once went to an Italian restaurant planning to order a salad I saw on their online menu, and the waitress told me that she didn't even know they had a website!

[Speaker 2] Oh wow! I think there is a lot of turnover in that business so no one gets super committed to the company to keep up with that stuff. I don't blame them, but it would be great to see restaurants with career service workers who make a living and are proud to be there.

[Speaker 1] How much do you usually tip at restaurants? I always tip 20%. Do you ever take pictures of your meals? My father likes to do that, however, I am not into that. I don't see the point.

[Speaker 2] I tip 20% (or more if I order something cheap and 20% is basically nothing). Buuut I don't really believe in tipping! It should be on the owner to pay their staff. I know in same states the hourly rate for serving is $3.25!!! Wild! And, no, I don't take photos. I use reviews a lot, so I probably should contribute to them more!

[Speaker 1] Yes, restaurant workers should be paid more by their bosses and rely less on tips. Sometimes I think many reviews are from people with a negative outlook on everything, and are therefore not trustworthy. I like to rely on first hand experience. I hardly read the news for that reason.

[Speaker 2] I understand that, but I do think it is important to keep up with national and international news. Hard to always find someone who has first-hand knowledge sometimes. I love public radio for the reason.

[Speaker 2] That's awesome Sarah! What song did you cover?

[Speaker 1] I covered the new song by Ed Sheeran Afterglow. I really like the way the guitar works with the vocals. that's my kind of music.

[Speaker 2] I just heard that song for the first time yesterday. It's got that nice singer-songwriter vibe. Is Ed Sheeran one of your favorite artists?

[Speaker 1] Yeah Ed Sheeran has always been one of my favourites, since pretty much his debut. What about you? what is some of your favourite artists?

[Speaker 2] I love his first hit Lego House a lot. My favorite artist all time though is Lady Gaga. I just love her spirit.

[Speaker 1] Although I don't listen to much Lady Gaga, I recently listened to her song with BlackPink called Sour Candy and that is very good! Great choice in music.

[Speaker 2] I like that song too! Thanks for the compliment. I think you could go far with your guitar covers. Do you post them on YouTube?

[Speaker 1] As of right now, its a no. however I would love to post a few, just got to get that confidence up. What kind of hobbies do you do?

[Speaker 2] Right now I'm mainly focused on my school work but I love to play sports when I have free time. I like basketball the most.

[Speaker 1] Thats really cool! What do you do in school if I may ask? also sports sounds incredibly fun, do you play basketball for you school?

[Speaker 2] I'm studying mechanical engineering so I take a lot of math and physics courses. What did you study in school? I don't play basketball for my school, but I'm in a fun rec league.

[Speaker 1] I finally posted one of my recordings to YouTube!

[Speaker 2] That is fantastic! You must be so proud. What was the recording about?

[Speaker 1] Thank you! I'm super proud of it. I posted a cover of an Ed Sheeran song I did–maybe I'll try a Lady Gaga one next!

[Speaker 2] I'm not too familiar with Ed Sheeran but what song did you post? You could may try Alice, by Lady Gaga next.

[Speaker 1] I played Nancy Mulligan–it's a really sweet song about his grandmother. I'll have to check Alice out! Now that I'm not so scared of posting I'm hoping to record a lot more covers.

[Speaker 2] That should keep you really busy. I have some bad news. My 20 year old car finally died on me. I'm looking around for a new one. Do you have any suggestions?

[Speaker 1] Oh that's such a shame! Best of luck finding a new one! I don't drive much myself, but I've heard good things about Toyota's sedans! They're supposed to be pretty cheap and really safe.

[Speaker 2] I'll have to check that out. I was looking in to a civic, but not sure if that's the best option for me. I always have lots of sports equipment in my car. I have a basketball tournament this weekend so I'm practicing a lot this week.

[Speaker 1] Oh, so maybe something bigger than a sedan is right for you. I hope your basketball tournament this weekend goes well! Do you have someone who can drive you there?

[Speaker 2] My mom is letting me take her SUV, so I'm thankful for that? Have you had any time to BBQ anything good?

[Speaker 1] That's good news at least! Yes, my family and I had a big cookout the other night, so we got to make a ton of BBQ. It was so good!

[Speaker 2] I'm hoping my mom will cook a big BBQ after my tournament this weekend. Hopefully I won't be too tired to enjoy it.

I am Sarah.

I like go-carting.

[Speaker 1] They are! I'll be sure to send you the link.

[Speaker 2] sure send me a link to your youtube channel i like to subscribe

[Speaker 1] Excellent! How are your engineering classes going?

[Speaker 2] They are boring i would rather watch basketball. i ate bbq fish last night you would have loved it

[Speaker 1] Oh, cool. Who played? BBQ fish sounds interesting. I typically associate BBQ more with beef and pork, but fish with something lighter. What fish?

[Speaker 2] it was washington wizzards vs philidelphia 76ers pretty exciting match you should've seen it. it was king mackeral fish it was the tastiest fish i have eaten

[Speaker 1] I'm a reporter for a paper. Are you married?

[Speaker 2] Yep. And we have a beautiful 3 year old daughter. You?

[Speaker 1] No kids. I happen to be single, but I love it. Any hobbies?

[Speaker 2] Singing in the choir at church. My dad is our preacher. Oh, and reading.

[Speaker 1] Reading is relaxing. I do yoga to relax

[Speaker 2] I've never tried yoga. I do wear purple yoga pants at home though.

[Speaker 1] Purple is a great color. I prefer grey, though.

[Speaker 2] Its my favorite. Grey can be calming though.

[Speaker 1] We need calm nowadays. So much craziness in the world!

[Speaker 2] No kidding. People really need to learn to love their neighbor.

[Speaker 1] Agreed. Especially with all the violence.

[Speaker 2] People are hurting. We need to find ways to meet needs. I think that will help.

I am a reporter. I work for a newspaper.

I am single. I have no children.

I do yoga.

I like the color gray.

I am a first grade teacher.

I am married. I have a 3 year old daughrer.

I sing in the church choir. I enjoy reading. My dad is a preacher.

I own a pair of purple yoga pants.

My favorite color is purple.

[Speaker 1] Do you read to your first graders?

[Speaker 2] I read to them almost every day. Yesterday, we read The Very Hungry Caterpillar. Are you working on any interesting stories?

[Speaker 1] I am mostly reporting on the impeachment stuff. It will get a lot more interesting next week. How long have you been teaaching?

[Speaker 2] This is my first year teaching. The impeachment story is very interesting. What particular aspects are you focusing on?

[Speaker 1] Just general information about it. Like yesterday each side stated their partial arguments they wil be presenting. I am trying to be as impartial as possible.

[Speaker 2] That sounds so interesting. What arguments did you listen to?

[Speaker 1] I didn't listen to them, each side submits what they will argue next week. It's just a legal process nothing too exciting. Nect week the trial starts and then we'll be able to hear what they say.

[Speaker 2] I see. I will have to check it out next week. Do you write exclusively about law and politics?

[Speaker 1] Yes, that is my specialization. I would love to cover more local stuff as that more directly impacts readers, but right now there's just too much going on nationally.

[Speaker 2] That's great. Local news is so important, but it seems like its getting harder to access.

[Speaker 1] It is the most important, that's why local papers must continue to get funding to keep going.

[Speaker 2] I completely agree. You are doing important work! How long have you been with your current newspaper?

I am single. I have no children.

I do yoga.

I like the color gray.

I am a first grade teacher. I read to my students every day.  I've only been teaching for one year.

My favorite color is purple.

[Speaker 1] My news column that I've been working on about the impeachment has just gotten approved by my boss!

[Speaker 2] yes, congratulations!! I know how hard you worked on that piece.  Will you be reporting it on TV as well?

[Speaker 1] No, but that's okay. Live reporting is too nerve-racking for me. Is being a teacher going as you expected so far?

[Speaker 2] Its going really great.  I was also nervous to get in front of the class at first but it has turned out to be such a joy!  Reading to them is my favorite thing to do.  If you ever want to come in to interview any of the kids on reading, I'm sure they would get a kick out of it.

[Speaker 1] I'd love to come by and do so. Reporting on major events is great and all, but I feel like focusing on what I can do for my town is more important overall. Little things like mock-interviewing first graders, for example, can leave a long-lasting positive impression.

[Speaker 2] It'd be great for the kids and I know the community would love to read about it too.  We have such a supportive town.  Did you hear about the new yoga studio opening up? Have you been yet?

[Speaker 1] I have been there, actually! It's a wonderful facility. Top-rate, first-class environment. The best. The instructor is brilliant. I totally recommend it if you're interested in yoga.

[Speaker 2] I love yoga.  Let me know which class you are taking next and I will try to meet you there. I'm always looking for a new class.  Not to mention a little time to myself away from my daughter.  I love her so much but sometimes you need to take time for yourself.

[Speaker 1] I'm usually there two evenings during the week and Saturday afternoon on weekends. It varies during the week - let me check my work schedule and I'll get back to you. People with children seem happy but what you've said is basically why I don't have any of my own. I don't think I can ever handle that type of responsibility. Give yourself some credit!

[Speaker 2] You'd be a great parent!  It truly is a great blessing of life but yes, there are challenges! They are worth it, I promise. Let me know whatever time works for you once you figure it out and I will be there :)

[Speaker 1] Maybe - I guess it's too soon to completely rule out yet. And for sure - probably later on this evening I'll have a better idea. How's church these days, by the way? I haven't been going lately.

[Speaker 2] The doors are always open.  Now that the weather is getting nicer it seems like more people have been coming in.  Which I love because it just means more people to sing for.  I know you've been so busy lately but please know you're always welcome back.  I'll save you a seat next Sunday!

I am a news reporter. I work for a newspaper. I report on political news. I want to cover local events. I think live reporting is too much for me. I want to do mock interviews.

I am single. I have no children. I don't want children.

I do yoga.

I like the color gray.

I have not been going to church.

My favorite color is purple.

I live in a supportive town.

I am reliable.

[Speaker 1] I have covered my first local event!

[Speaker 2] Awesome. What type of an event was it? Do you also cover sports?

[Speaker 1] I don't usually get tapped for sports. There are others that handle the high school sports and the like.

[Speaker 2] Then do you mainly focus on local news? That's exciting. Have you done any live interviews that you really enjoyed?

[Speaker 1] I do some interviews, but since they are printed, it's realy only excerpts of the interviews that show up. But I have interviewed a few local politicians. It's great to meet some of the big names in the area.

[Speaker 2] Sounds like you have a wonderful job and always something new and exciting. Being a first grade teacher isn't as adventurous but you never know what the kids are going to say or do which makes it fun.

[Speaker 1] Kids are full of energy and thus full of surprises. I don't think I'll be interviewing any kids in the near future, but sometimes we do stories on schools and interview teachers.

[Speaker 2] Well if we have anything interesting coming up in the next few months I'll let you know.

[Speaker 1] There's a chance that we'll do something with the local schools. Sometimes it's a human interest story, sometimes we need reactions to changes in policy.

[Speaker 2] It must be cool to always have just a variety of things and issues to work on. Keeps things interesting. If you're looking for human interest stores my dad's a preacher and his church is wonderful and very involved in the community.

[Speaker 1] Sounds interesting, but we have to be careful about covering religion. We can't look like we're promoting one faith over another. But community involvement stuff is always of interest to our readers.

[Speaker 2] Gotcha. I guess that would make sense. Are you still doing yoga? I tried it several times but just can't get into it.

[Speaker 1] Better than some of the current ones.

[Speaker 2] That sounds great, does it include lots of cheese? I love cheese

[Speaker 1] I like cheese too! It does include a lot of cheese. It is also spicy, do you like that?

[Speaker 2] That makes it all the more delicious! I assume you enjoy spicy food as well?

[Speaker 1] I love spicy food! I got it from my mother, she really loves it. Do you like movies? I normally eat nachos at the movies

[Speaker 2] I enjoy movies a lot but I typically eat my favorite snack, popcorn! I like action movies the most how about you?

[Speaker 1] I like action movies too! Although I prefer music to movies mainly, especially country music

[Speaker 2] I prefer movies more than music but If I had to choose I would say I enjoy country music the most as well. What got you interested in country music?

[Speaker 1] My mom loved country music, and she passed it down to me. My favourite artist is johnny cash, do you have a favourite

[Speaker 2] I can't decide who I like because there are just too many to decide from, although my cousin who got me into country music was a big Johnny Cash fan.

[Speaker 1] Do the rest of your family like country music too?

[Speaker 2] My Dad despises it when I blast country music in the house. Is your family more supportive of it?

My mother is a school teacher. I was close to my mom.

I surf. I like old school country artists.  I like country music. I like dolly parton, johnny cash.

I cook. I like nachos, cheese, spicy food.

I live at home.

[Speaker 1] Do you like any special toppings on your popcorn?

[Speaker 2] No just regular butter; you mentioned you were close to your mom; does this mean you are not close anymore?

[Speaker 1] I love movie theater popcorn butter, I know it must be so unhealthy but it's just so tasty! We're still somewhat close, I just don't see her as much anymore. We were really close when I was growing up.

[Speaker 2] Now movie theater popcorn butter reminds me of the movies; I might go to the movies tomorrow; have you seen any movies lately that you will like to recommend?

[Speaker 1] Ooh, I don't think I've seen anything yet that's currently playing. I hear Rava and the Last Dragon is really good!

[Speaker 2] Okay; I'll check that out. Have you cooked anything fantastic lately?

[Speaker 1] I made enchiladas the other day, they turned out really good! They were so spicy, I bet you would've loved them haha

[Speaker 2] I will definitely love them because I love spicy food. I will probably find sometime to try my hands on it if you send me your recipe

[Speaker 1] Yeah I can definitely do that! I mostly followed a recipe from an old cookbook, but I made some adjustments. Not sure if it helped or not, but it let me feel like I was giving it a personal touch lol. Have you ever done one of those hot wings competitions? I bet you'd be good at it

[Speaker 2] No i haven't done any competitions; I get very nervous and with hot wings; might not be a good idea. It might affect me adversely

[Speaker 1] LOL that's a polite way to phrase it haha, "affect me adversely." The next time I get food poisoning that's what I'm gonna say.

[Speaker 2] That's funny! Hopefully you won't get food poisoning; that won't be nice. Have you gone surfing lately?

My father was an author.

I've traveled to both ireland and australia.

My father was born in australia.

I like to travel.

Italian food is my favorite!.
I'm a chef and a painter.
I'm completing my studies.
Dessert is my favorite meal.

I followed in my the footsteps of my dad and wrote my first novel at 30.

I try to travel once a year.

My family used to live in sydney.

I enjoy seeing the world.

[Speaker 1] Hello, how are you doing today?

[Speaker 2] I am good and you?

[Speaker 1] Very well thank you. I am walking the dog later, going to get ice cream.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like fun I am going to rest I just got back from traveling for business

[Speaker 1] I cannot wait to graduate college, so I can get started in my career.

[Speaker 2] I love my job but I do a lot of traveling

[Speaker 1] That is what I'll be doing, I am going to be a journalist.

[Speaker 2] I am an air line attendant so I am always traveling.

[Speaker 1] That sounds fun. I paint and cook in my spare time.

[Speaker 2] I do not have a lot of free time but I do writing

[Speaker 1] I also do photography, it helps relieve the stress.

[Speaker 2] It does sound relaxing I caught the writing bug from my father

[Speaker 1] My father taught me photography and basic car repair.

[Speaker 2] My father was always writing stories about his home in australia

I have a dog.

I am going to college.

I am going to be a journalist.

I like to paint and cook.

I am an airline attendant.
I like to write.
I learned to write from my father.
My father was from Australia.

[Speaker 1] I just found out that I passed all of my classes. It's not too much longer until I'll be able to graduate. To celebrate, I cooked a big meal that I shared with my family. I took lots of pictures of it, too!

[Speaker 2] Oh wow, well done you. What did you cook?

[Speaker 1] I made chicken alfredo with garlic bread, salad, and chocolate cheesecake for desert! I'm honestly super proud of how it all turned out!

[Speaker 2] You should be. I bet your family are proud of you too. Did they enjoy the meal too?

[Speaker 1] It sure seems like it. I thought there would be left overs, because I made so much, but everyone came back for seconds and thirds, haha.

[Speaker 2] Sounds delicious, what are you doing with the photos you took? Are they going online?

[Speaker 1] Eventually! I've been thinking about creating a photo book for my family, so I may wait until the holidays to post a montage of sorts.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, that's a good idea. Maybe you could include pictures from your time studying and then the end could be your celebration.

[Speaker 1] Oh that's an amazing idea! I may have to include my friends in this too, then. They and my family have been so supportive. I'm actually going to celebrate with my friends, today! We're doing a potluck.

[Speaker 2] That's brilliant. What are you going to take or are you having a rest fom this one?

[Speaker 1] I'm making a roast, actually, so no rest, yet. I will definitely need one after this, though, haha.

[Speaker 2] Oh wow, a lot of work for you. What meat are you doing for your roast?

I have a dog.

I am going to college. I will be graduating soon.

I am going to be a journalist.

I like to paint and cook.

I learned photography and how to repair cars from my father. I have been thinking of creating a photo book for my family.

I live with my family. I have a supportive family.

I am good at cooking.

I am an airline attendant.

[Speaker 1] How have you been? What have you been up to?

[Speaker 2] I've been pretty good! What have you been up to? Cook any new dishes?

[Speaker 1] I've tried out a new recipe for Thai curry that came out pretty good. Have you ever tried it?

[Speaker 2] No but it sounds pretty good. Being a flight attendant doesn't leave a lot of time for being an adventurous cook :(

[Speaker 1] That's true. Do you get to go to restaurants all over the world, or are you stuck just eating airport food?

[Speaker 2] Most of the time it's what I can find at the airport between flights :( I'm  not at home a whole lot. It stinks but the pay and the perks are pretty good

[Speaker 1] Next time you have a break, you should try to take it when you've already been flown to a nice vacation destination! It sounds like you deserve a little break.

[Speaker 2] Yeah I'm going on vacay a little while in the near future. Probably take the husband to England since he's always wanted to go. He wants to try bangers and mash!

[Speaker 1] Haha, I have to ask, does he want to know what it tastes like, or just say he's had something with a funny name? He sounds like he's got a sense of humor.

[Speaker 2] Yeah he's a goofy man, owns his own comic book business! Likes to clown around. I've  had bangers and mash, at least it's not as amusing as Scotland's "Tatties And Neeps"

[Speaker 1] That's so cool! I like reading comics, do they publish any titles I might have heard of?

[Speaker 2] Yeah he has a huge shop here in town. Marvel, DC, whatever you want he could get you!

I have a dog.

I am going to be a journalist.

I like to paint and cook.

I am good at cooking.

I like reading comics.

I am an airline attendant.

I don't cook very much. I eat at the airport. I get paid well. I'm not home often.

I am going on a vacation, soon.

My husband is goofy. My husband has his own business.

[Speaker 1] Do you like your job? Is an airline attendant the person on the plane serving drinks?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, but we do much more, we are responsible we the safety of all the passengers in the airplane.

[Speaker 1] That's a lot of responsibility, I'm not sure I could handle being responsible for so many peoples safety all at one time. I salute you!

[Speaker 2] The pay is good and I travel a lot and don't like to cook. It is perfect for me. What kind of journalist do you want to be ?

[Speaker 1] I want to be an investigative journalist. I firmly believe there's not many real investigative journalists left today. Nobody is willing to ask the hard questions that I believe need to be answered so hopefully someday I can make an impact and expose corruption at the highest levels.

[Speaker 2] Did you learn about the Watergate scandal ?

[Speaker 1] I know about it, that was a long time ago though. I am more interested in current events. Where are you going on vacation? Are you going with your husband on vacation as well? I bet he's going to be really happy to spend some quality time with you since you're gone so often.

[Speaker 2] I wan to go to Taiwan, I have heard they have good restaurants and good museums. Do you like Asian cuisine ?

[Speaker 1] I am not a huge fan of Asian food sadly but to be honest I can't say I've tried enough of it to really know how much I like it or not. I do like cooking though, I like cooking southern style food. Stuff like fried okra, chicken fried steak, stuff like this.

[Speaker 2] There are lots of recipes with frying in Japanese cuisine. I am sur you would  like it, tonkatsu is slices of porc loin fried with panko flakes, it is very crispy.

[Speaker 1] I will have to try it out, maybe I'll spend sometime this weekend looking up fried foods from Asian countries. I absolutely love fried food, my arteries are going to hate me though when I'm older.

[Speaker 2] With japanese cooking, they pair fried food with fresh vegetable and rice. So it is not as unhealthy as chicken nuggets and fries. You should try it.


I am employed by sam adams.
I have a partner.
I've a young kid.
Female pop singers are my favorite.

Outside activities such as hiking are my favorites.

I still have a flip phone.

I'm employed with a tv crew making educational material.

People say I'm a force if nature.

[Speaker 1] Hello are you married? I am but do not think for very much longer

[Speaker 2] Marriage does not exist in my culture.

[Speaker 1] I work for a very large beer company, I see that is probably for the best

[Speaker 2] Do you have hobbies? I like hunting since I do not like technology.

[Speaker 1] We just had a little girl year and half ago, she really likes taylor swift

[Speaker 2] Very nice. I make videos of my culture for the discovery channel.

[Speaker 1] Mostly sports in general, like hunting and fishing as well

[Speaker 2] Outdoors is where I like to be. I hate working with the cameras though.

[Speaker 1] That sounds interesting, do you travel alot for that job

[Speaker 2] I travel around the local tribes. Mostly walking. Sometimes jeep.

[Speaker 1] There is always a negative when it comes work

[Speaker 2] Like drinking too much beer? Ha ha ha.

[Speaker 1] Tribes? Where exactly are you at in the world?

[Speaker 2] Interior of australia. Hot. Dry. Lots of dangerous things.

[Speaker 1] Yes beer is always good I can get an endless supply

[Speaker 2] Nice perk. Chatting is hard for me. I don't have computer skills.


I am working on a biology degree.
I'm allergic to nuts.
I love book.
1984 is my favorite book.

I m about to go off to college at a very liberal school soon.

I plan to raise hell and sew my wild oats.

I go to a catholic high school in new england.

I've lived a very sheltered life.

I am 17.

I'm college student in biology department.

I hate shelled things.

I enjoy readin.

I think novels written by george orwell are very meaningful.

I just graduated finally done.
I want to live a crazy life.
I grew up on the east coast.
I've not experienced much.
I am a junior in high school.

[Speaker 1] Hi. I'm still in school. I hope to be something in biology.

[Speaker 2] Hey, me too. I do not know what I want to do yet.

[Speaker 1] I am not interested in teaching. Maybe research. You like to read?

[Speaker 2] No, not really. I would rather party. I can not wait for college.

[Speaker 1] I think they are cutting down on partying. What do you like in biology?

[Speaker 2] I hope not. I just want to go meet lots of people and enjoy life.

[Speaker 1] Do you like movies? I haven't seen any good ones lately.

[Speaker 2] Me either. I'm not allowed to see many movies. My parents don't like them.

[Speaker 1] Do they know you party? I think movies are calmer than that.

[Speaker 2] I would never dare tell them. They wouldn't understand.

[Speaker 1] They probably have some idea. What will your major be?

[Speaker 2] I don't know yet.

[Speaker 1] Do you like to eat fast food? Where do you go?

[Speaker 2] I like pizza and ice cream.

[Speaker 1] That sounds good but not together. You like sports?

[Speaker 2] No, not really. Sometimes I'll go to a baseball game with my dad.

I'm still in school. I want a job in biology.

I don't like teaching.

I'm still in school.

I will be going to college. I like to party.

My parents don't like movies.

I like pizza and ice cream.

I don't really like sport. I watch basketball games with my Dad.

[Speaker 1] I have decided what I want to do know in the biology field when I leave school.

[Speaker 2] That's great! What are you wanting to do within the field?

[Speaker 1] I want to work in the lab doing research on a variety of different fish. What are you going to study in college? Have you decided on a major?

[Speaker 2] That sounds really interesting! I really don't know what I want to do yet. I'm going to college next year, so hopefully I figure that out.

[Speaker 1] The good thing is usually you don't have to choose a major until sophomore year. Are there any subjects in school you like better than others, though?

[Speaker 2] That is relieving. I've been feeling stressed about not knowing which direction to go in. I like science and math.

[Speaker 1] Maybe you can do biology like me! The important thing is to get a well-rounded education in order to be able to find a good job once we graduate. Careers in STEM are challenging but so needed!

[Speaker 2] Those are some great ideas! Maybe I should look into taking some introductory bio classes and see if I like it?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I recommend it. Do you already know what colleges you'll be applying to?

[Speaker 2] I'm not sure about that either, but maybe some colleges in Florida. Where are you hoping to go?

[Speaker 1] I've been accepted at Duke University, Columbia, and UF in Gainesville. I am undecided where I want to go still. I am going to wait to see which school gives me the best financial aid package.

[Speaker 2] Wow, that is awesome! Congratulations!

I'm still in school studying biology.

I don't like teaching.

I want a job in biology. I want to work in the lab doing research on a variety of different fish when I leave school.

I have been accepted at Duke University, Columbia and UF in Gainesville. I will wait to see which school gives me the best financial package before I decide on which.

I'm still in school. I will be going to college next year. I like science and math. I might look into taking some intro bio classes.

I like to party.

My parents don't like movies.

I like pizza and ice cream.

[Speaker 1] I got another acceptance offer; this time at Stanford.

[Speaker 2] I am excited for you that you got accepted to Stanford - that is a top school

[Speaker 1] Thank you, I still haven't decided yet which one I'm going to choose. Have you started looking at colleges yet?

[Speaker 2] Yes. I am concentrating on  going to school in Europe, though since I have dual citizenship - US and German

[Speaker 1] That's really cool. I hope you find one that you really like. Have you been to any good parties lately?

[Speaker 2] Not really, I have had to concentrate on school. I have had a lot of papers due and I have started to do some research in a group with our biology teacher in microbiology

[Speaker 1] That sounds like the best idea, concentrating on school is important, you'll have plenty of time to party later. Are you enjoying doing research?

[Speaker 2] It is a new field and I have to learn the nomenclature and the specific procedures...you know repeatable results and scientific principles....It is exciting though!!

[Speaker 1] I love doing research, It has always been one of my favorite parts of any project. Once you learn the procedures and nomenclature it will be much more fun.

[Speaker 2] It is already a lot of fun and has opened up a whole new way of framing questions scientifically and based on that developing a protocol for a scientific experiment

[Speaker 1] I'm really glad you are enjoying it so much. I completely loose all track of time when I get immersed in an experiment. Do you think you would ever want to work in a lab and do experiments?

[Speaker 2] The insights I have gained into research so far are potentially leading me to change my entire way of looking at science and how I will pursue my science degree. I am thinking about doing even more STEM courses and then go for full science research degrees either in Europe or later here in the U.S.

I'm still in school studying biology.

I don't like teaching.

I have been accepted at Duke University, Columbia and UF in Gainesville. I was accepted to Stanford University. I will wait to see which school gives me the best financial package before I decide on which.  I'm going to college but haven't decided where yet.

I like to party.

My parents don't like movies.

I like pizza and ice cream.

I like to go to a university in Europe. I have US citizenship. I have German citizenship.

I am concentrating on school. I am doing microbiology research with my biology teacher. My biology research is in a new field. I think research is fun. I want to get a science degree. I want to get my degree either in Europe or the US.

[Speaker 1] Guess what - I got a couple of calls and somehow they're offering me a full ride to Stanford but only like $5K at Florida!

[Speaker 2] The Harvard of the West! CONGRATS! Sounds like that should make your decision pretty dang easy, yeah?

[Speaker 1] It certainly will! I'm going to wait until I get some more details, then break the news to my parents. My cousin will be excited to hear, since he is already attending at Stanford.

[Speaker 2] That is so fun! It is great to already have a support group there! How do you think the parents will react?

[Speaker 1] I'm sure they will be so proud. Neither of them graduated from college. They both think my choice of study is an excellent choice. Did your parents have any input on where you should get your degree?

[Speaker 2] Oh wow! First generation? That is great! My parents are pretty open. They know I am passionate about my research. I have been looking into a university off the coast of NC. They have a great marine biology program. It would be a little different than I was thinking, but it is also a party school. Haha best of both worlds!

[Speaker 1] That's god that they are open. My advice would be to be moderate with the partying, because I have seen so many of my classmates struggle at school because they tire themselves out and create interpersonal conflicts with excessive partying. I've been in a few mosh pits at heavy metal concerts before, but now I am more relaxed and don't go to concerts really.

[Speaker 2] I can see it now: DRAMA IN THE MARINE BIOLOGY DEPARTMENT! Hahaha. You are probably right, but YOLO, right?

[Speaker 1] Oh, that would be horrible. Thankfully, I have never had an accident in my lab at my school. I have heard of a few accidents that have happened, but I wasn't there for the accidents. My dad would be furious if the school called him because I misbehaved in some way. He is very strict.

[Speaker 2] But once you're in college, what say does he have? He can't claim he is paying for it if you have a full ride!

[Speaker 1] That's right! Maybe I will find a girlfriend at college. I only had one in high school, and it only lasted for a few months. Do you have a girlfriend?

[Speaker 2] Kinda. There is this girl I met at a STEM camp. We don't see each other often, but we do keep in touch.


I love baseball.
Baseball is the sport I enjoy the most.
I am an adult.
I like to play ball.
I play school base ball.

I complete school this year.

I'm form out of country.

I wish to join education.

My sibling enjoys music and going to different places.

[Speaker 1] Hi, do you like baseball?

[Speaker 2] A little. I'm busy with college right now.

[Speaker 1] I'm in college too. I just made our team.

[Speaker 2] After I graduate in september I want to be a teacher.

[Speaker 1] That sounds great. I'm hoping to play ball

[Speaker 2] My brother had different ideas. He thinks a metal band is the job for him.

[Speaker 1] That could be fun. I am not a music fan

[Speaker 2] He travels the world with his band, but I'll stay here.

[Speaker 1] I want to travel a lot. Sports will do that for me

[Speaker 2] That would be good. We came to america when I was five.

[Speaker 1] Where did you live before?

[Speaker 2] I don't remember. I should ask!

[Speaker 1] My favorite ball player, mike trout, is from new jersey

[Speaker 2] I have never been to new jersey. Have you?


I don't like vegetables.
I got straight as.
My dad sold plans for his job.
My mom was a homemaker.

I work on the books.

I need a regular trip.

I've mental illness that was found when I was at university.

I have deja vu.

[Speaker 1] Hi! How are you today?

[Speaker 2] I am well. Just hanging out doing some transcription work. What about yourself?

[Speaker 1] Being angry about my wrong order from a restaurant. They gave me a salad! Yuck.

[Speaker 2] You do not like salads? I'm so hungry!

[Speaker 1] I hate salads!!! So gross!

[Speaker 2] What about fruit? Fruit salads?

[Speaker 1] That's different. That does not have lettuce in it.

[Speaker 2] I don't care what kind of food just as long as there are equal proportions

[Speaker 1] My mom was a stay at home mom and she would always feed us salads! Ugh.

[Speaker 2] What a bitch! Just kidding that is your mom got to have respect.

[Speaker 1] Haha. She was a good mom. She stayed at home all day with us.

[Speaker 2] Aw. So you are a mommas boy? Girl?

[Speaker 1] A girl! I love my mom! And my dad, too! He was an insurance salesman.

[Speaker 2] Are you hot? I'm wondering what you look like

[Speaker 1] I am decently attractive, and you?

[Speaker 2] I do not look bad I guess. I am comfortable. Its been nice talking to you cutie


I graduated from college.
I'm the youngest of 4 children.
I like to hike.
I lost my arm in a car accident.

My dream is to move to the middle of the desert.

I have a pet snake.

Before I die, I want to skydive.

I am a famous video game character online.

I've my bachelors degree.
My four sisters are older than me.
I enjoy being outdoors.
I was in a bad wreck.

I am currently in college.

I enjoy the sun.

I own reptiles.

I hope I get to go skydiving while I still can.

I live in a fantasy world.

[Speaker 1] Hi how are you tonight?

[Speaker 2] I'm good, how are you?

[Speaker 1] I'm great thank you for asking. What are your favorite hobbies?

[Speaker 2] Playing video games and caring for my snake

[Speaker 1] I also like video games. I really enjoy hiking.

[Speaker 2] Same here, although I'd love to live in the desert someday

[Speaker 1] I graduated college in arizona, so I also like the desert.

[Speaker 2] Cool, what was your major?

[Speaker 1] I majored in education, I am the youngest of 4 siblings to become a teacher.

[Speaker 2] Wow, I am starting an engineering internship later this year.

[Speaker 1] That's great. Do you have any siblings?

[Speaker 2] 3 half sisters, I am the oldest.

[Speaker 1] Sounds like a wonderful family. Nice talking to you!

[Speaker 2] Same here, have a great night

I like video games and enjoy hiking.

I graduated college in Arizona. I like the desert.

I majored in education. I am the youngest of 4 siblings. I'm a teacher.

I like to play video games. I have a pet snake.

I enjoy hiking. I want to live in the desert.

I have three half sisters i'm older than them.

[Speaker 1] How's your pet snake doing.

[Speaker 2] He is healthy and happy.  I just built him a new tank.

[Speaker 1] What do you feed him with?

[Speaker 2] He likes mice, so I feed him those.

[Speaker 1] I heard that snakes want their food alive...is it true?

[Speaker 2] Yes it is.  I feel bad for the mice sometimes!  But a snake gotta eat!

[Speaker 1] This is the cycle of the life in the end of the day. Where did you buy from the new tank you were talking about?

[Speaker 2] I bought the tank from Reptile City and added my own modifications.  He kept getting out and scaring my three sisters!

[Speaker 1] For a second I thought that maybe I wanted to get a snake for me too, but the idea that he can get out from the tank and find him in the living room...It has completely froze me!

[Speaker 2] I found Bubba when I was out hiking. They can be scary if your not used to them, but they can be good pets, too.

[Speaker 1] I think I will pass on this. Maybe a dog or cat will fit more on my personality.

[Speaker 2] Yeah.  Pet snakes aren't for everyone.

I like video games and enjoy hiking.

I graduated college in Arizona majored in education. I like the desert.  I'm a teacher.

I am the youngest of 4 siblings.

I might like a pet dog or cat.

I have a pet snake named Bubba. I feed my pet snake live mice.

[Speaker 1] I looked into getting a pet of my own

[Speaker 2] And what are your choices so far? Have you visited any type of animal shelters yet to find the dog or cat that chooses you?

[Speaker 1] I contemplated getting a snake but I don't think I'm ready for that quite yet lol. I am planning to visit our local shelter tomorrow and hopefully be chosen by a furry friend. Any tips on what to look for?!

[Speaker 2] Well, you will quickly find out what you are drawn to, I believe....the animal you spend the most time with at the shelter will then do the rest.

[Speaker 1] Sounds like a plan to me! I am über excited... it will be a lifestyle change for me! How long have you had your pet snake?

[Speaker 2] I have had Bubba for about 2 years....he is easy to please. The lifestyle change is obviously the greater, the more your chosen cat or dog want to interact with you. In some breeds their innate intelligence demands a lot of time from you, like an Aussie shepherd. The more intelligent the animal is, the more it wants to connect with you and be challenged....it is really like having children or a demanding girlfriend.....

[Speaker 1] Haha... I love the way you put it! I am so looking forward to this new chapter in my life. Bubba sounds like a cool companion :)

[Speaker 2] Bubba is low in terms of time demands, he wants food and then he is ok....he is a companion with emotional limitations... Since I am getting ready for my engineering internship I am preparing for that by reading a lot of material, therefore it is good that Bubba is not putting a lot of time demands on me...

[Speaker 1] Works out perfectly for you! Are you excited about the engineering internship?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I have been looking forward to this for quite some time. The firm I will be aving my internship with is operating all over the world and they have a lot of interesting fields I can get a taste of. In a way it is like teaching...you have to find the exact niche you love and then excel in it...

[Speaker 1] So true! It is an awesome opportunity to be part of a global outfit and the diversity of experience they offer is going to be very enriching!

[Speaker 2] I totally agree. It will be an exercise in distilling what I want and what I am naturally good in when it comes to the engineering field. Much like in teaching, as I stated....

I like video games and enjoy hiking.

I am the youngest of 4 siblings.

I will visit a shelter tomorrow to find a pet dog or cat. I do not currently have a pet. I am excited about becoming a pet owner.

I start an internship in engineering later this year. I can build things. My internship is with a global engineering firm.

[Speaker 1] I went to the shelter's website and found a beautiful cat who is up for adoption. I think he is the one I want. I can't wait to meet him tomorrow.

[Speaker 2] Aww, how sweet. Do you know what you're going to name him if you get him?

[Speaker 1] Im thinking Link from Zelda or Alucard from Castlevania.  what do you think?

[Speaker 2] Well, I'm not that big on video games, but he'll be yours so as long as you two are happy. Such a big step.

[Speaker 1] IM really excited!  Im going to get a cat tree and a litter box today.  and some food and bowls

[Speaker 2] That's great; he'll be living like a king. Will you take him to meet your students?

[Speaker 1] i dont know just yet.  I dont want to overwhelm him.  I may set up a web cam and live stream him to the class.  That might be safer.  dont want to worry about kids with allergies.

[Speaker 2] Oh, great point on the allergies. It's amazing how many pet-related products are out there now. They've become like our kids.

[Speaker 1] The toy isle is like going to a toy store for kids!  There is so much stuf!  im not sure what toys to get him, but i can easliy go overboard

[Speaker 2] Right? He'll be lucky to have you. What grade/subject(s) do you teach?

[Speaker 1] 7th grade science.  I get to do fun experiments for the kids.  they learn better when they are engaged with stuff like that versus just books.

[Speaker 2] Oh, I can imagine. They love that hands-on stuff.


I like hiking up volcanoes.

Sometimes, I like to relieve myself when on roses.

I think canadian women are incredibly attractive.

I cannot get enough ginger snaps.

I take my emotions out through art.

I have a hard time feeling connected with people.

I grew up homeschooled.

I care deeply about animals.

I spend a lot of time outside.

I enjoy relaxing and getting flowers.

Females from other countries are pretty.

I enjoy a certain kind of cookie.

My self expression is typically through painting.

It is difficult for me to connect to others.

I did not have many friends in high school.

I love my pets.

[Speaker 1] Hi I like hiking everywhere including up volcanoes

[Speaker 2] Wow that sounds dangerous! I prefer to stay home and work on my art

[Speaker 1] I love art but I really can't draw

[Speaker 2] I like all kinds of art. Drawing, painting, sculpture, pottery...

[Speaker 1] I tried pottery once... Broke it before I even started

[Speaker 2] That's too bad. I'm hoping to sell some of mine to raise money for the animal shelter

[Speaker 1] Wow that is great I've been lookin for a wife

[Speaker 2] I hope you find one. I find it hard to connect with people. Blame homeschooling

[Speaker 1] I think canadian women are so beautiful

[Speaker 2] Then maybe you can find a canadian wife!

[Speaker 1] I hated that so much honestly I did

[Speaker 2] I am sorry. I don't understand

Hiking is one of my hobbies.

I am a homebody and an artist.

I love animals and will be selling some of my artwork to raise money for the animal shelter.

[Speaker 1] Hello again! Have you raised lots ofmoney for the animal shelter this week? Or are you still creating the artwork?

[Speaker 2] I am still in the process of painting. I have a buyer already though!

[Speaker 1] That is great! I hope he is going to buy it for an impressive amount?

[Speaker 2] Yes, it's all for charity so it is a win-win. The shelter hopes to use the money to foster another 50 dogs and cats!

[Speaker 1] Impressive! What is actually in the painting you are currently working on in order to raise money for animal shelter.

[Speaker 2] It's the client's cat. She is a cutie.

[Speaker 1] Great! That means working on animal artwork in order to raise money to cater for animals. Smile.

[Speaker 2] This is really a dream. I'm really happy I'm actually doing it.

[Speaker 1] I am happy too seeing you doing great thing like this, I envy you.

[Speaker 2] Thanks so much! I'll send you a picture of it when it is done.

[Speaker 1] That will be great! I was actually about to ask for that, you are wonderful.

[Speaker 2] Of course. I'll let you know when it is done.

Hiking is one of my hobbies.

I find cats cute.

[Speaker 1] Since you're drawing for charity I also decided to try drawing again.

[Speaker 2] How did it go? What did you decide to draw?

[Speaker 1] Just a few portraits, nothing impressive. I'm still not great at it, but at least I'm trying to put more hours in practicing. Any advices?

[Speaker 2] Have you heard of the 8 heads method for drawing figures?

[Speaker 1] Hm, not sure, I think I haven't. Sounds interesting, what's that?

[Speaker 2] It is the idea that generally people are about 8 times the length of their head. So you draw one oval for their head, and then you draw another 7 underneath the first one. That way you are pretty proportional to real people!

[Speaker 1] Oh, that's pretty neat. Can it be applied to portraits though?

[Speaker 2] yes! so there is a different ratio if you are just drawing a face. You draw 3 ovals instead of 8. In the first oval (top) is the forehead. In the second oval the nose, and the bottom is the lips and chin.

[Speaker 1] Damn, haven't thought about that, thanks! I should start paying you for lessons haha. Been trying to learn myself by using free courses, but seems like it's too slow.

[Speaker 2] No, way! teaching yourself is great. you just need a few tricks here and there to make things seem realistic. Self portraits are really hard, because we are incredibly critical of how we look. Maybe try drawing someone else's face first?

[Speaker 1] I've tried it before, yeah. Even tried sketching some people while in a subway, it was fun! But still it seems like I lack the experience or the patience to improve my skills.

[Speaker 2] Hahaha well there are always other mediums! Besides its supposed to be fun, and if you aren't having fun try something different for a little while. Have you thought about photography? Sounds like you have an eye for faces!

Hiking is one of my hobbies.

I love art. I am not good at drawing, sculpting/pottery. I am trying drawing again. I drew a few portraits. I am not great, but I am practicing. I am taking free courses in drawing.

I am a homebody and an artist. I enjoy many types of art, including drawing, painting, sculpting, and pottery. I know a lot of techniques for drawing people.

I find cats cute.

[Speaker 1] I went to the museum and copied some portraits there and I think I'm getting better.

[Speaker 2] I would be reluctant to practice in a museum where everybody could see my work. I like to work in private.

[Speaker 1] Well, I think it could be helpful to head to the museum and look at some of the paintings to gain inspiration on future pieces of work.

[Speaker 2] I do sometimes drop in to the museums for a look-see. With the internet, I look up works for inspiration, but it's just not the same as the real thing.

[Speaker 1] I would agree with you that the interest is an amazing place to see all kinds of works of art from across the work. So much amazing art across the world.

[Speaker 2] If I had the money, I would tour museums all over the world. Plus I would love to see exotic animals and paint them too.

[Speaker 1] Oh, I would love to do the same. I love going to the zoo and seeing all the animals as they help to give me inspiration for drawing as well!

[Speaker 2] The whole of nature is a source of artistic inspiration, if you develop the eye for it. I learned to see once I started drawing. Drawing helped me see, not the other way round.

[Speaker 1] That is very true and an excellent point of view on art. How long have you been drawing?

[Speaker 2] Probably since I could hold a drawing implement in my tiny hands.

[Speaker 1] Well, keep on drawing and selling your artwork to help animals! I think you're the true hero!

[Speaker 2] It's a matter of practice. I've seen all kinds of artists, some started with no ability whatsoever. They kept at it and got quite good. Keep going!

I love to read and relax by the lake on the weekends.

I am a school teacher.

I have been with this group for over 12 months.

I can not believe it has been a year since I began.

I'm captain of the team.

[Speaker 2] Hi there, I am sarah and I do love to watch football.

[Speaker 1] Awesome! I play in the nfl

[Speaker 2] Nice. What team? I teach math to fifth graders in new york.

[Speaker 1] For the philadelphia eagles! Do you like teaching?

[Speaker 2] I love it and here in oakville we really try to prep the kids young.

[Speaker 1] I understand, that's awesome! They're the future

[Speaker 2] Wonder how my team will do against you guys this year.

[Speaker 1] Hopefully not well! I'm quarterback so tell the defense to take it easy!

[Speaker 2] I just watch but I will send them some vibes to leave my new friend alone.

[Speaker 1] I appreciate it! Maybe we can pull out the win

[Speaker 2] I love to go to our lake house. So relaxing to read by the water.

My name is Sarah. I love to watch football.

I live in New York. I am a fifth grade teacher.

I love teaching. I am now in Oakville.

I have a lake house.

[Speaker 1] My team played an awesome game yesterday. We won!

[Speaker 2] Congrats, how long do you think you will continue to play football?

[Speaker 1] I will play for more years as long as my body will allow me to play. It's my passion.

[Speaker 2] That's awesome. If you weren't a football player, what do you think you would be doing?

[Speaker 1] It is really hard to think without football. I might be a soccer player then. haha! Who is your favorite soccer player?

[Speaker 2] Haha, that's funny. I guess sports is in your blood. My favorite soccer played is Christiano Ronaldo. Do you watch a lot of soccer?

[Speaker 1] yes I love to watch all kind of sports. Cricket is my favorite but I am really bad in playing it.

[Speaker 2] Interesting, ciricket isn't super popular here. How do you watch it?

[Speaker 1] I just watch it on some sports channel. what are your hobbies other than watching football?

[Speaker 2] I love to go to the lake and boat and fish. It is so relaxing.

[Speaker 1] awesome! I am really bad in fishing, never caught one in my whole life. There are good lakes at New York. It must be relaxing

[Speaker 2] You have to go up north, but yeah there are some good ones. It is nice to just sit on the boat with your rod, even if you don't catch anything.

I love football. I will play football until an injury prevents me. It is difficult for me to imagine not playing football.

My favorite sport is cricket. I watch cricket on a sports channel.

I have never caught a fish.

I work in New York. I am a fifth grade teacher.

I love teaching. I am now in Oakville..

I have a lake house. I find fishing and boating to be relaxing.

I am a fan of Christiano Ronaldo.

Cricket is not a popular sport where I live.

[Speaker 1] I had the opportunity to try fishing again this week, I finally caught my first fish! It wasn't a very large fish, but it's something.

[Speaker 2] That's wonderful.  I find fishing so relaxing.  Do you know what type of fish it was?

[Speaker 1] I honestly have no idea, haha. It was pretty long and grey. They all kind of look the same to me. It was pretty fun though!

[Speaker 2] Well at least you have fun.  I will be traveling to Philadelphia.  I was thinking about buying tickets to the game so I can watch you play.

[Speaker 1] That would be so cool! Let me know which game are going to attend and I'll give you a tour of the stadium.

[Speaker 2] That would be fun.  I just hope it doesn't snow while I am there.  I don't like it when it is really cold and snowy.

[Speaker 1] I hope it doesn't snow either, it is pretty miserable to play in the snow!

[Speaker 2] I bet.  I'm a lover of the sun.  That is why we bought the lake house.  There is nothing better than spending time relaxing by the water.  Maybe you can come visit sometime and we can hone your fishing skills.

[Speaker 1] It is nice to relax by the water. I could definitely do with your help, my fishing skills are pretty bad! How often do you go to your lake house?

[Speaker 2] It just takes practice and now you have caught your first fish.  Yeah!  We go for a few weeks in the summer.  We also try to go up at least a few times a month for the weekend during the spring and fall.

[Speaker 1] That sounds so nice, I am jealous! I might have to buy a lake house of my own. I like the idea of escaping into nature whenever I want.

[Speaker 2] That could be your goal "if" you ever retire.  When we retire we would like to live there year round.

I am in the NFL. I play for the Philadelphia Eagles. I am a quarterback. I can give tours of the stadium in Philadelphia.

I have never caught a fish. I like fishing. I caught a fish this week. I like relaxing by the water. I'm not very good at fishing.

I don't like playing sports in the snow

I would like to have a lake house.

I love teaching. I am now in Oakville.

I am a fan of Christiano Ronaldo.

I am going to travel to Philadelphia. I want to see a game in Philadelphia. I don't like cold and snowy weather. I would like to go on a stadium tour.

I find fishing and boating to be relaxing. I like being out in the sun. I like relaxing by the lake. I stay at my lake house for a few weeks at a time. I want to live at my lake house year-round.

[Speaker 1] Let me know if you want to get dinner or anything while you're in town. There are a couple of new places I think you'd like. I can send you some recommendations if you want?

[Speaker 2] That would be terrific. Please send along any recs! Any pizza in that list?

[Speaker 1] Oh, absolutely. But if we're eating pizza, I have to know. Do you put pineapples on your pizza?

[Speaker 2] I have. I will again. It is rare. If it is a new pizza spot, I must have their plain pie. The most I would put on is onions.

[Speaker 1] Oh, no. You're one of those... but that's okay, I suppose I can forgive you. I can do onions. Do you have any other plans for your visit?

[Speaker 2] One of those! Sweet and savory is not a bizarre combo! I also dip my pizza in ranch sometimes. I'd like to also see a Sixers game. Do you ever go?

[Speaker 1] Sometimes, but it's been a while. We should go together while we have the chance.

[Speaker 2] That would be great. Should I see the liberty bell or the Betsy Ross house? Seems like the bell is just...a bell.

[Speaker 1] Well, yeah. But it's a bell of liberty, so it's gotta be worth seeing. Why not both?

[Speaker 2] I can do both. It just seems like a bell is a bell. I should probably go to Pats for a cheesesteak too. Any good bars in Philly I should stop by?

[Speaker 1] For sure, there's the one nearby me and the guys always go too. You'll love it! If we go with them, though, it's going to be a party.

[Speaker 2] Parties are fun! I'm definitely down.

Sometimes I volunteer at the soup kitchen.

I like to cook.

[Speaker 1] Hello there how are you today?

[Speaker 2] Hi I am doing ok how are you

[Speaker 1] Great just got done getting dinner all ready and letting it bake

[Speaker 2] Did you make anything with strawberries that's my favorite

[Speaker 1] No it is rice with asparagus and chicken on top covered with cheese

[Speaker 2] That sounds good. What do you do for a living

[Speaker 1] I teach piano for work and also do volunteer work at a soup kitchen

[Speaker 2] You seem very helpful! I am a veterinary assistant

[Speaker 1] I love animals, I rescue and foster kittens when I can

[Speaker 2] I like cats too I've 2

[Speaker 1] I also have 2, I'm in between fostering right now. Love having kittens around

[Speaker 2] Do you have to give them back or can you keep them

[Speaker 1] I usually get them homes, the two I have are from ones I fostered before

[Speaker 2] Oh ok. What do you like to do for fun

[Speaker 1] Baking and cooking, I want to open a bakery one day

[Speaker 2] I like going to the beach and collecting shells I find

I teach piano for a living. I volunteer at a soup kitchen.

I rescue and foster kittens.

I have two cats.

I bake and cook for fun. I daydream about opening a bakery.

Strawberries are my favorite food.

I like red berries.

I am a veterinary assistant.

I like cats.

I like to go to the beach and collect shells.

[Speaker 1] I have a new foster kitten.

[Speaker 2] Aw that's so cute! What's their name?

[Speaker 1] I'm thinking of naming him Mittens. I know it's a cliche name, but it just fits him so well!

[Speaker 2] That's a really cute name. What's he like? Do you play with him a lot?

[Speaker 1] He's shy, but he's such a sweetie! He loves cuddles, so he'll often come sit on my lap and meow for pats or cuddle up with the other cats. It's so cute!

[Speaker 2] Awww, that's adorable. Tiny cuddly kittens are the best. I wish I had one, I get lonely a lot so it would be nice to have a friend

[Speaker 1] They really are! I actually got Mittens and my other two cats from a local shelter. Is there one near where you work or have any of your clients mentioned any animal shelters. Maybe you can find a kitten from one of those places.

I rescue and foster kittens. I have two cats.

I just adopted a new kitten. I think the name "mittens" is cliche for a cat. I think you should consider adopting a cat.

Strawberries are my favorite food.

I like red berries.

I am a veterinary assistant.

I like cats. I wish I had a cat.

[Speaker 1] There is a cat up for adoption near you that I think you would love!

[Speaker 2] Ohh, tell me more about it?  Like what color is it?

[Speaker 1] She's a calico, so she's all sorts of colors. They say she's really feisty but also really sweet.

[Speaker 2] Nice, I love when a cat's fur has some character to it! Do you know how old she is? I get pretty attached, so I'm hoping she's still pretty young and will be around for a long time.

[Speaker 1] She looks to be under a year old. Not exactly a kitten anymore but still not quite a full grown kitty.

[Speaker 2] That's perfect for me!  What will I need to do to adopt her?

[Speaker 1] I'll have to give you the number for the shelter and they'll walk you through a quick adoption process. It's not that bad honestly, they just try to make sure that pets are going to good homes.

[Speaker 2] Sounds good, remind me to get that number from you before we're done talking.  Now I just got to figure out what to name her... got any ideas?

[Speaker 1] Not Mittens that's for sure (she doesn't look like she has them anyway). I'd honestly wait until you get her so you can decide on a name that fits her personality.

[Speaker 2] Haha, Mittens wasn't even on my radar! Don't worry I wouldn't do that to you.  I was actually thinking something like Sandy or Seashell, but I think you're right that I should wait until I meet her.

[Speaker 1] I'm sure it won't take long to decide. When you get her home you'll have to send me some pics of you two.

[Speaker 2] For sure I will do that! It will be so exciting to finally have my own cat.  I hope she's as sweet as you say she is!

[Speaker 1] Yes, she is lovely and always puts a smile on my face.

My favorite color is blue.

I do not have any pets. I am 25 years old.

[Speaker 1] So how long have you been in the service?

[Speaker 2] I joined a few weeks after my 19th birthday so it's coming up on 6 years. It's hard to believe it's been that long!

[Speaker 1] Did you want to join the service since you were young? Any family in the service? I have wondered what it would be like when was young.

[Speaker 2] It was just a job opportunity for me and a way to make money. I was in school and it was a way to help pay for tuition. I do enjoy it now, though.

[Speaker 1] I always wondered what it would be like to join the service. What did you study in school?

[Speaker 2] I was in school for electrical engineering but that's not what I do in the Army at all.

[Speaker 1] What do you do in the army? Did you have a fascination with electric engineering since young?

[Speaker 2] Right now I work in logistics. We make sure the right piece of equipment is in the right place. Electrical engineering was never my passion. Did you always want to be a baker?

[Speaker 1] Yes I always had a fascination with baking. I guess I get it from my mom. What was your passion when you were young?

[Speaker 2] I spent a lot of time hunting and fishing with my dad. I can't wait to do the same things with my son.

[Speaker 1] That sounds great. I never went hunting and I do wonder what it would be like.

[Speaker 2] If you like being outdoors in nature, you might like it. It's a combination of excitement and relaxation.

My favorite color is green.

I have children and a wife.

I do not have any pets.

I wondered about the service when I was young.

I am a baker and have always wanted to be. My mom was a good baker.

I have never went hunting or fishing.

I have a wife and son.

My favorite color is blue.

I have been in the service for almost 6 years., as a way to make money. I work in logistics in the Army.  It helped me pay for school. I enjoy it.

I went to school for electrical engineering. I did not have a passion for electrical engineering.

I know how to hunt and fish.

I feel relaxed and excited when I hunt and fish.

[Speaker 1] I went fishing for the first time and caught a fish!

[Speaker 2] Oh cool, did you catch anything good? Fishing is fun.

[Speaker 1] Yea. I got a picture I'll send to you later of the largest fish that I caught. I think it was a Bass but I'm not sure what type it was. My kids had a blast with it but I wasn't really able to teach them much. I know you go fishing so would you be willing to come with us next time to help my kids and I get better at it?

[Speaker 2] Bass are pretty cool fish. How many kids do you have? I would have to look at my schedule on a good time to go.

[Speaker 1] I have two kids. I'm sure they would love if you brought your son along for the adventure. Let me know when a good time to go is and we could schedule for it. If you are up for it, I'm also interested in trying hunting some time. Perhaps we could schedule for that as well.

[Speaker 2] That is cool. We have a kid on the way. We are looking forward to welcoming life into this world. I am not big into hunting so I would have to pass on that. But, thanks for the offer!

[Speaker 1] I thought you said you were in to hunting and fishing. None the less fishing should be a blast. I'm glad to hear you got another one on the way. So, don't let our fishing adventure get in the way with helping your wife with while she is pregnant. Do you know the sex of your upcoming kid yet?

[Speaker 2] I am only into fishing. But, maybe I could try hunting out. I love helping my wife around the house and making sure things are getting done. We are a little girl on the way. They are due in July.

[Speaker 1] That is exciting! Let me know if there is anything I can do to help you guys out. If your wife needs help with the baby shower I know my wife would be elated to help.

[Speaker 2] Thanks for the offer. We will be having a small barbeque in our backyard for the baby shower. Which will include games, food, drinks, and hanging out with family. We enjoy spending time with family.

[Speaker 1] When we go fishing we can talk a bit more about it and I can do some planning to help out with the barbeque as well. Just let me know when you have time to go fishing and I'll be able to check my schedule to make sure it works for me as well.

[Speaker 2] That sounds good. I am free this upcoming weekend to go fishing and we can chat about the upcoming plans for the baby shower and how life will different with a new baby on the way.

[Speaker 1] Haha That would be interesting! But, I guess we can't learn if we don't do the studying ourselves ha. This semester is my first course in journalism, so I'm not sure yet what I want to do. Just learning the ropes.

[Speaker 2] Interesting. Is it very time consuming or do you still have plenty of time left over to practice with your band? I don't have much time left with all my studying but when I do, I like to go watch some rock bands at a local bar.

[Speaker 1] It is definitely time consuming. I haven't had as much time left to practice with the band, but they are in college too so we all understand. Maybe you can come check us out sometime!

[Speaker 2] When is your next show and where? I'll try to make time to stop by and bring a few of my friends from college to support you!

[Speaker 1] We should be having one the third Saturday in February! It's downtown, but I'll have to double check the name of the venue. That would be really could if you all could join!

[Speaker 2] Nice! We all live downtown so we can either walk or take an Uber there, probably! When you have the details please do let me know!

[Speaker 1] Whoops meant *cool. Yeah, I definitely will! It'll be great to see you and I really appreciate the support!

[Speaker 2] Amazing. Well I'll guess I'll be hearing from you soon! Let me know if you need help promoting the show. I can pass out flyers at my college music building.

[Speaker 1] That would be awesome! My bandmates are going to be excited to hear about this. Thank you!

[Speaker 1] Got the name of the venue we'll be playing at if you're still interested!

[Speaker 2] Oh, absolutely. Where are you playing?

[Speaker 1] It is a grunge dive bar, named Geronimo. I really like the place, fits a good amount of people and it is always full.

[Speaker 2] That sounds pretty good. What type of music do your band play?

[Speaker 1] It is a mix of grunge rock, heavy rock, punk rock, and of course the typical commercial rock to get the crowd in that can't handle the real rock music.

[Speaker 2] Oh that sounds exactly my speed. Are you the only band performing or are there going to be others?

[Speaker 1] We are going to be the only official band playing that night, but before we go on, there will be an open mic for different bands. It should be pretty cool. Hope you can make it.

[Speaker 2] That's exciting. So you'll be headlining. I might come early to see how the open mic goes also. See if there are any bands I should keep my eye out for

[Speaker 1] Definitely! I think that going to open mics are the best place to catch talent early on. I love raw bands, before they need to conform to the normal commercial music, just to get on the radio. How is school going?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, me too. You find the most experimental bands there. School is going well, I'm still loving robotics. How is school going for you?

[Speaker 1] Very true. Good! I am glad to hear. Yeah, school is still great. It's the perfect match between my love of music, with love of journalism, when i go to these band nights. I can listen to the great music and also report on the bands in my newspaper.

[Speaker 2] That is a handy crossover for you. Have you got your eye on any of the bands coming to the open mic to report on, or is there anything you particularly want to see?

My girlfriend has a job.

I play in a rock band. I play a great variety of rock.

[Speaker 2] I just enjoy having the opportunity to do my own thing or listen to other people do theirs. It's so unique and lively. Have you ever been to one?

[Speaker 1] yeah.. may be a year ago . Love to be the unique way too. Do you have any of those in the downtown nearby.

[Speaker 2] We sure do! It's within walking distance, so that makes it easier on me. You and your girlfriend should go sometime, it could make a nice date.

[Speaker 1] Sure . Thank you for  being so suggestive! Would like to plan soon or now. How long could be the open mics or rock concerts in general?

[Speaker 2] Some of them are open all day, others only at night. Maybe we could hang out there and hit the bar after sometime too.
