[Speaker 1] Hello, how are you today?

[Speaker 2] Not bad at all, rain got in the way though. How are you?

[Speaker 1] I am doing well. Where is it raining?

[Speaker 2] Ma. I was gonna finish a roof today. At least the cats will not miss me

[Speaker 1] My cat just got out, I hope she comes home soon the streets are busy.

[Speaker 2] Ooh, if one of mine got out I'd panic.

[Speaker 1] Ya the streets of bejing aren't kind to a little kitten.

[Speaker 2] I will say, hope you find her soon. So otherwise how is your day?

[Speaker 1] It was pretty decent. I won my ping pong match.

[Speaker 2] I'm terrible at that game, give me a hammer not a paddle

[Speaker 1] What other kinds of things do you fix.

[Speaker 2] I build houses, sometimes I fix them, have my dads genes.

[Speaker 1] Maybe I do too. He is an electrician I pay electric guitar.

[Speaker 2] Close enough I suppose, my dad put a hammer in my hand at 2.

I have a cat.

I am in Beijing. I play ping pong.

My father is an electrician. I play electric guitar.

I am in Massachusetts. I work on roofs. I am handy with hammers. I build and fix houses.

I have cats.

[Speaker 1] How many cats do you have?

[Speaker 2] I have six cats. Some would say that is too many cats to have but I really value all of them and enjoy having all of them around at all times.

[Speaker 1] Wow! Did you get all of them at once?

[Speaker 2] Only two of them were acquired at the same time. They are brother and sister and I got them both from a breeder. The others are all rescues. I find it enjoyable to know that I helped out a helpless animal. In fact, I'm always open to rescuing more so I could imagine having up to nine or ten cats.

[Speaker 1] That is interesting. Do you have kids?

[Speaker 2] No but I do consider my cats to be like my kids. Maybe that is why I have such an affinity for having so many cats. What about yourself? Do you have kids?

[Speaker 1] No, I don't have kids. I want kids soon though.

[Speaker 2] Well, until then, you at least have your cat to fill that void! Maybe you should get more cats like me in the meantime. I know some cats aren't fond of other cats coming in to a home. Do you think your cat would be ok with more cats?

[Speaker 1] Not at all! My cat cannot stand other cats. How is it working on roofs in the summer?

[Speaker 2] I don't mind it but I know its not for everyone. It certainly gets warm up there but a solid layer of sunscreen and plenty of fluids ensure that I have the endurance to do the work. Plus, since I do work on houses in general, I'm able to schedule the roof on cloudy days.

[Speaker 1] Okay. Do you own the business or are you a contractor?

[Speaker 2] I actually work for with my dad. It's a family business. I suppose I'm lucky because my dad has been a great teacher for the industry. I suspect that when he retires he will pass the business down to me if I'm still interested in working in the industry. What kind of work do you do and is it the reason you are living in Beijing?

I have a cat.

I am in Beijing. I play ping pong.

I don't have kids. I would like to have kids.

I have a cat.

I take after my father. My dad taught me to use a hammer. I work for my dad. I will probably own the business one day.

I have six cats. I love my cats. I got two sibling cats at one time. Four of my cats are rescues. I would get more cats.

I do not have kids.

[Speaker 1] I played a show at a bar last night.

[Speaker 2] Nice! Do you do covers or original work?

[Speaker 1] These days I seem to be doing more cover work because it's popular. I have done some original stuff in the past though.

[Speaker 2] That's amazing. I wish I knew how to play the electric guitar. Do you have any advice on how to get started?

[Speaker 1] Go online to YouTube and do some searches. There are a lot of amazing channels on there with instructional videos. It takes time though to really get good, so don't be impatient. Stick with it and put the practice in.

[Speaker 2] That's a good idea! Maybe I'll start with acoustic to see if I enjoy that, then invest in electric if I ever get decent at it. How long have you been playing?

[Speaker 1] Sheesh, I've been playing for probably 20 years or so at this point. I'm not even sure. Maybe you'll like bass instead. Might want to look into that as well.

[Speaker 2] It's funny you mention bass, when I was a kid, I wanted to learn how to play the bass! Unfortunately, my school didn't have a band. It was a very small school.

[Speaker 1] Sounds like you should give it a go now! I think that's where I would start if I were you. If you don't like bass you can always try something else later.

[Speaker 2] That is true. Thank you for the advise! Now off to search some videos on YouTube!

[Speaker 1] As far as bass goes I would look up davie504 on YouTube.

[Speaker 2] Thanks! Ill look him up now.

I have a cat.

I am in Beijing. I play ping pong.

I've been playing guitar for about 20 years. I play the electric guitar. I perform at bars. I play covers when I perform. I've played original music in the past.

I like learning things on YouTube. I like davie504 videos on YouTube.

I do not have kids.

I'd like to learn how to play guitar. I'm going to start playing the acoustic guitar.

I wanted to play the bass when I was a child. I went to a very small school.

[Speaker 1] I had another great show the other night -- they loved my cover versions of some great songs!

[Speaker 2] That's great!  What are some of the covers you played?

[Speaker 1] I've done tons of them. My latest was a metal version of "Can't Get You Out Of My Head".

[Speaker 2] I would love to hear that, metal is such a different feel than the original.

[Speaker 1] I think it sounds pretty good. Some people told me they liked it better than the original. That's always nice to hear.

[Speaker 2] Do you ever play your original music when you perform anymore?

[Speaker 1] Nah, not really. It seems that people didn't like it much compared to covers. So, I just do covers now. Did you ever start learning to play guitar?

[Speaker 2] I bought an acoustic guitar last week, but I'm still pretty intimidated to start playing it.  I've been watching a lot of youtube videos to try to pick up some tips.

[Speaker 1] Nice. Who have you been watching on YouTube?

[Speaker 2] Nobody in particular because I don't know if any of the youtubers are any good.  I just try to learn some basics.  Do you have any recommendations?

[Speaker 1] Check out Rob Scallon, he is really good with guitar.

[Speaker 2] Ok great, I'll give him a try.  Do you play any other instruments, or just guitar?

I have a cat.

I am in Beijing. I play ping pong.

I played a metal cover of 'Can't Get You Out of My Head'. I never play original music anymore.

I do not have kids.

I bought an acoustic guitar last week. I am watching You Tube videos for tips. I am trying to learn the basics of playing guitar.

[Speaker 1] Can you play any other instruments or will the guitar be your first?

[Speaker 2] I have played the piano since I was like in elementary. I was told it will help with coordination. I am hoping that will make guitar easier. Playing guitar just looks so much cooler.

[Speaker 1] It definitely looks cooler, I think it is because you can move around with it and stuff. Can't carry a piano around! haha

[Speaker 2] Not at all. I always begged to get to try something else. But I am good at the piano, the only issue with it is that I don't get any attention from girls playing piano.

[Speaker 1] Really? I think that girls like guys that play any instrument especially if they are really good at it

[Speaker 2] The guitarist and drummers get the most attention. I have played a keyboard before, but playing a Chopin concerto for a talent show doesn't get much attention.

[Speaker 1] That might be true, have you tried getting some people together to start a band. You'd get a lot of attention that way, especially of you guys are really good together

[Speaker 2] Maybe we could start one together? I can learn the guitar and bass. Lots of bands have one of each or two guitarists. What do you think/>

[Speaker 1] I would be down to try that. I play electric guitar though, are you sure you don't want to be on keyboards? I think we could crush it like that

[Speaker 2] I could sometimes, but I really want to play the guitar or bass

[Speaker 1] Ok, if we were going to be in a band it would probably be more helpful if you learn bass, but I also more than willing to teach you some guitar. But then that is three instruments!

[Speaker 2] Aren't the guitar and bass very closely related? I bet I could learn both, and I can already read music. I have been researching reading tabs too.


I hate the color orange.

I consider myself to be a gamer.

My coloring is unique.

I do not like academics.

I am not very social.

[Speaker 1] Hello, how are you? Did you major in chemistry too?

[Speaker 2] I'm angry. My parents keep making me go to school even though I hate it

[Speaker 1] Omg me too! I graduated, but ended up working at a bookstore!

[Speaker 2] Dose your bookstore sell p o box? I know some do and I love it.

[Speaker 1] Sorry, no, and they went out of business. It was a weird fashion hipster place.

[Speaker 2] I don't have that many friends to play with anyways. How old are you?

[Speaker 1] I am 35. But I still go dancing on the weekends! How old are you?

[Speaker 2] 12. I want to leave school as soon as I am old enough.

[Speaker 1] Do you have a hobby? Mine is competing in dog agility. Makes the time pass...

[Speaker 2] I stay away from other girls that are jealous of my long red hair and blue eyes

[Speaker 1] Good decision! I usually do not care about fashion, but I like doing hair color.

[Speaker 2] Oh cool. Have you done anything else fun?

[Speaker 1] I bleached my hair. Black now blond. Just hate that orange between the two bleaches.

[Speaker 2] I don't bleach my hair. Mine is natural and goes down to my waist

I majored in chemistry. I graduated school.

I worked at a weird fashion hipster bookstore.

I am 35. I like to go dancing on the weekends.

My hobby is competing in dog agility.

I do not care about fashion. I like doing hair color. I bleached my hair blonde. My hair is naturally black.

I am angry. I hate school. I have more than one parent.

I don't have that many friends. I am a 12 year old girl. I stay away from other girls.

I have long red hair and blue eyes. I don't bleach my hair. My hair goes down to my waist.

[Speaker 1] Is there anything you do like about school?

[Speaker 2] Well, I do like art class. I would like to go into art or design when I'm older.

[Speaker 1] That's good. What type of art do you like to do?

[Speaker 2] I like all types but my favorite are sculpture and pottery.

[Speaker 1] I always wanted to try pottery, is it easy?

[Speaker 2] It is difficult at first to get the clay to conform to the shape you want. But it gets easier with practice. I'm sure you can find some instructional books on pottery at your bookstore.

[Speaker 1] I might just go have a look and see, I believe we do have books on pottery.

[Speaker 2] So what kind of dog do you train?

[Speaker 1] I train German Shepherds and Poodles.

[Speaker 2] I've been begging my parents to get me a dog, but they want to wait until I am older.

[Speaker 1] Probably try and do things around the house that can convince them that you're responsible enough to have a dog.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I am trying to be more responsible when it comes to completing my chores on time as well as keeping my grades up.

I am a dog trainer. My hobby is competing in dog agility.

I am interested in pottery.

I am angry. I hate school.  I don't have good grades. I have more than one parent.

My favorite class is art. I want a career in art or design. My favorite types of art are sculpture and pottery. I practiced a lot making pottery.

I don't have a pet.

[Speaker 1] If you are really passionate about art, go for it! Follow your heart

[Speaker 2] I will but I don't want to be in school to do it.

[Speaker 1] I can understand that. but maybe school would help you make connections with people so you can make moves in the art world?

[Speaker 2] I guess so but many great artists are dropouts.  I want to work. I can teach you pottery

[Speaker 1] that would be really cool. i've always wanted to learn. don't I need a lot of stuff to do it, though?

[Speaker 2] Not a lot.. I can take you shopping for the essentials . That'll get me out of the house. I am bored

[Speaker 1] that would be fun. is it easy to find the supplies one needs for pottery?

[Speaker 2] I guess so . We will find out together. Hey..do you ever combine dog training with dancing? lol

[Speaker 1] I have not! but that would be a hoot. do you think the dog could dance?

[Speaker 2] I bet dogs can do anything. You can also dress the dancing dog with the latest quirky fashion. What an act.

[Speaker 1] I just today saw a hilarious post of dogs wearing fishnet stockings! have you ever dressed a dog up in a costume?

[Speaker 2] Nope. My parents wont get me a dog. They think I wont take care of it.

I am interested in pottery.

I have always wanted to learn pottery.

[Speaker 1] Are you still going to teach me pottery?

[Speaker 2] Sure! I can do, you just need to make sure you arrange with my mother when you want to come round. Or maybe, next time you need to come around, you could set off an hour earlier and we could do it then. Does that seem okay to you?

[Speaker 1] I will get in touch with your mother and make proper arrangements.  I will ask her when I talk to her if it is alright if I bring one of my small puppies that I am training over with me.

[Speaker 2] OMG PLEASEEE!!! I will make sure she lets you, we have such a big garden that your puppy will love. What is his or hers name? And, more importantly, is she really fluffy?

[Speaker 1] Her name is Elsa like from the movie Frozen and she has the FLUFFIEST white and tan fur.

[Speaker 2] You need to get another one and call them Olaf, that would be so cute! I wish we were allowed to have dogs but my dad says it is unfair to leave them in the house by themselves when they go to work and I am at school. Can you try persuade my parents to let me get one?

[Speaker 1] If I get another puppy I will for sure name it Olaf. I cant persuade them  because they are your parents and they have set the rules. But I will bring my pups over for you to visit if it is alright with your parents.

[Speaker 2] Okay I guess you are right. I cannot wait until I am older so I can have as many dogs as I want. I just think that they are always happy to see their owners and I don't seem to get on with other girls at my school so it would be nice to have someone pleased to see me everyday

[Speaker 1] Dogs are a girls best mate. I have a Dog competition soon would you like to come with your parents?

[Speaker 2] yes, I would love to. What type of things are they competing for?

[Speaker 1] Jumping, dance and running a course. It is fun and there is always LOTS of puppy love :)

[Speaker 2] When I am at the park with my parents, I always see this really skinny dog running soooo fast. I bet that it would be good at the running course. I have seen YouTube videos of dogs dancing but I am confused as to how they are trained to do such things

I am interested in pottery.

I have always wanted to learn pottery.

My puppy is called Elsa. She has fluffy white and tan fur.

I have a dog competition soon. I do jumping, dance and course running at the dog show.

I don't have a pet. I am not responsible. I don't complete my chores on time. I live with my parents. We have a big garden.

I want a dog. My dad says we can't get a dog. I can't wait to be older and get as many dogs as I want. I watch You Tube videos of dogs dancing.

[Speaker 1] Thank you so much for teaching me pottery, I have bought my own supplies now so I can practise at home.

[Speaker 2] That's so awesome, you'll have to send me pictures of your finished works! I made a vase today, I used an acid etching pattern on the glazing. Not perfect, but it still looks nice. How's Elsa doing?

[Speaker 1] Elsa is doing well, she's so sweet. I'm throwing a dog bowl for her on the pottery wheel. It was supposed to be a face, but it looked more like an ashtray.  I'm not very good at this yet.

[Speaker 2] Keep practicing! You'll get better. Elsa does look like a sweet pup. I can't wait to have a dog of my own. I wish my dad would lighten up a bit and get me one. Is Elsa ready for the upcoming competition?

[Speaker 1] I think I'm more nervous than she is.  She loves practicing the course especially.  I think she'll do well.   Well, maybe if you try harder to get your chores done, your dad will change his mind.

[Speaker 2] Chores! I need to focus on my art - it will be my career one day and I have to perfect it. Have you been dancing lately? I've never been to a dance.

[Speaker 1] Lately, I've had to forgo the dance clubs lately. These days I'm only dancing with Elsa! I'm sure you'll be going to lots of dances once you are in high school!

[Speaker 2] Maybe. Dancing sounds fun, but not if it's with boys. I'd rather dance with Elsa too! When she wins that competition - and I know she will - you need to send pics and videos!

[Speaker 1] I certainly will!  But I bet you change your mind about the boys  in a couple of years when they start fighting over you!

[Speaker 2] no, boys distract girls from important stuff like art. They need to wait in line behind the pottery. Have you decided to stay a blond?

[Speaker 1] I'm thinking about going back to my natural color, and just bleach the tips. What do you think?

[Speaker 2] I think your black hair is beautiful. I wish I had hair like that. But you have to do what you like best. bleached tips sounds fun.

[Speaker 1] Cool, do you still talk to him?

[Speaker 2] Ya not as much since we moved here

[Speaker 1] How do you like your new life since you moved?

[Speaker 2] It is not so fun I've 2 friend who speak a different langues

I use Hmong but my dad is bilingual.

[Speaker 1] Have you talked to your family recently?

[Speaker 2] Not lately, I have been really busy with school. We do text at least once a day just to check in. Have you picked a big city you want to move yet?

[Speaker 1] I feel that, it's hard to balance school and family. And yes, I'm considering San Francisco. Have you ever been?

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a fun place to be! I have not been there myself but hope I get to visit some day. Have you ever been there?

[Speaker 1] I haven't, but it seems cool. I'm also considering Austin, which feels very multi-cultural. I think I would have to learn Spanish. Do you know any other languages?

[Speaker 2] My English is not so good. I speak Hmong. I use the computer to translate. I also use my phone.

[Speaker 1] Oh cool! Do you have any friends that also speak Hmong?

[Speaker 2] My friend Noah does but he mostly speaks English. His Hmong isn't that great but we understand each other most of the time.

[Speaker 1] Nice--I'd love to meet more bilingual people. Where I live is pretty small and not very diverse.

[Speaker 2] New York City is a melting pot. I visited there and loved it! Did the whole tourist thing while I was there.

[Speaker 1] I'm so jealous! Maybe I should just move to NYC lol

[Speaker 2] Yes! That would be so cool! So many things to do and so many people from everywhere!

I live in small area of America.

I want to be a lawyer.

I am considering moving to San Francisco. I've never been to San Francisco. I am also considering moving to Austin. I think I would have to learn Spanish to live in Austin. I am considering moving to NYC.

I use Hmong but my dad is bilingual.

I'm in school and very busy. I text my family every day.

I've never been to San Francisco, but I'd like to.

[Speaker 1] I've made my final choice, I'm going to New York City!

[Speaker 2] Congratulations! what is your plan?

[Speaker 1] I am planning to move there next month. I am currently looking at apartments to rent in the area. What part of NYC did you like best when you visited?

[Speaker 2] I enjoyed the whole Manhattan island, but personally i enjoy coney island for the hotdogs.

[Speaker 1] Oh, I will have to check that out when I get there. I am excited that I will have a lot of different options compared to where I am at now.

[Speaker 2] What do you plan on doing in NYC? You mentioned wanting to be a lawyer, are you going to attend law school there?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I am enrolling in school in NYC and I also plan to get a job to help support me while I am in school. Do you have any plans to visit your family?

[Speaker 2] Yes i am planning on going back next month for my mothers birthday. I am exciting to go see my family. What burrow are you planning on moving to?

[Speaker 1] I am not sure yet, I am still researching apartments. Do you have any recommendations?

[Speaker 2] I say anything in Hells Kitchen is nice, Brooklyn, and if you want a more diverse setting i recommend Harlem.

[Speaker 1] Thank you for the recommendations! I will look into them. How is your schooling going?

[Speaker 2] Its going great next week are my finals and i am feeling good about them.

I live in small area of America. It is not very diverse where I live, and I would like to meet more diverse people.

I live in America but My family live in South America. I speak Hmong and English is my second language. I am not very good at it and use my computer and phone to translate.

I have a friend named Noah till 1 year and can speak Hmong. I have 2 friends who speak a different langues. I use Hmong but my dad is bilingual.

I loved visiting NYC. I like all the people and things to do in NYC. I have visited New York City. I liked eating hot dogs at Coney Island.

I am visiting my mother next month for her birthday.

[Speaker 1] I may have found a friend who wants to be my roommate in New York!

[Speaker 2] Congratulations, and that sounds hopeful. The market can be really competitive. Having a friend along to help, is a good thing! Next, have you found an apartment?

[Speaker 1] Well, they haven't committed to anything yet. I'm still looking for a good apartment that is close to the school.

[Speaker 2] This is the time to research it. I find with big decisions like this, researching for a few weeks, helps me make a decision, in a crunch. Wonder how many years it takes to become a lawyer?

[Speaker 1] Well, I've read that it takes around 7 years. That seems like a long time right now, but later on in life it won't seem that way (I hope).

[Speaker 2] Seems like once you get started, the time just starts getting shorter and shorter. Would love to see you graduate!

[Speaker 1] Hey, you are in school. How has finals prep been going? Are you ready?

[Speaker 2] Seems kind of overwhelming lately, sometimes texting a friend is a good thing to focus on! hehe. Cram sessions for hours, makes my brain hurt! I'm passing my courses great though.

[Speaker 1] What was it that you are studying again? I always seem to forget for some reason.

[Speaker 2] Right now I'm taking English language classes, to help me speak better. Just doing what they call pre requisites? The core classes, until you decide your focus.

[Speaker 1] Well, they seem to be working really well. Your English in here is top notch!

[Speaker 2] Thank you, and I am getting help from a web translator sometimes! It helps to practice with you too. Tell me your first classes when you get to school!

I am moving next month. I'm currently looking for apartments. I will be going to school in New York. I want to become a lawyer. I may have found a roommate.

I'm currently in school. I'm taking my finals next week. I am studying really hard for my finals, and am a little overwhelmed. I am passing my classes.

I like to research things before making big decisions.

I do not have a major yet. I am taking prerequisite classes right now. I am taking English language classes to improve my speech. I use resources outside of class to improve my English.

[Speaker 1] I finally found this beautiful apartment that isn't too far of a subway ride from campus!

[Speaker 2] Oh that is great. Has your room mate looked at it yet?

[Speaker 1] Not yet, but talking to them they don't seem too picky and this apartment has most of the things they wanted, so I am hoping for the best

[Speaker 2] I am sure it will go well for you. It took me forever to find a good spot to live for school. I actually ended up moving like three times this year, but I am finally in a good spot. I can walk to campus and my job.

[Speaker 1] Three times? Moving is dreadful, I can only imagine doing it three times in a year!

[Speaker 2] I didn't unpack the first time. I knew it wouldn't last. And the second place was a hotel for a few weeks, so it was more like a temporary spot because the first place didn't even have hot water all the time. The place was awful. I am glad I am here, it would be so hard to study with flickering lights and worrying about my AC going out again

[Speaker 1] That all sounds terrible, but I am glad moving was not that big of a hassle each time. How was it living in a hotel for a few weeks? Longest I've been in a hotel was a few days!

[Speaker 2] I did enjoy the continental breakfast every morning. It was nice getting to go grab a waffle, some eggs and sausage and biscuits a danish and coffee, run to my room and put most of it up for later. I rarely bought food. Oh, and the hot water lasts forever there. I do miss having hour long hot showers when I need to destress. What all does your possible apartment have?

[Speaker 1] Oh just the essentials, it might actually be nicer living in a hotel. It has two bedrooms, a bathroom and a really nice living room area. There is even a patio with a really nice view if someone just needs to go outside and think

[Speaker 2] Oh that is great. I have a balcony where I am, and I usually get my best late night studying in out there when it is not raining. It is important to have access to outside.

[Speaker 1] I agree. If I am going to have an apartment I don't want to have to leave the building or just stare outside a window to get a semblance of outside

[Speaker 2] It would also be good to make sure you are close to a park and at least one fast food joint!


My mother and father make a lot of money.

I have a baccalaureate in business.

I own a high end car.

I lived in the city.

I got my degree as a chemist but I currently am employed at a book shop.

I wear whatever I want, regardless of style.

I love red.

I am a dancer.

[Speaker 1] Hi want to be my friend?

[Speaker 2] Sure. Do you like to dance?

[Speaker 1] I know how but it isn't my favorite. I learned at prep school

[Speaker 2] What was your favorite subject in school?

[Speaker 1] I guess math. I am hoping to get into finance

[Speaker 2] I like math too. Chemistry was my favorite subject in school.

[Speaker 1] That's cool are you a chemist now?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I have been for the last 5 years.

[Speaker 1] Good for you. Where do you live?

[Speaker 2] I live in chicago. What about you?

[Speaker 1] I'm in manhattan. Best city in the world

[Speaker 2] Manhattan does have good pizza.

[Speaker 1] So I hear. I am more into sushi

[Speaker 2] I am not a fan of sushi, I like mexican food.

[Speaker 1] Well we have that here too. We have it all

[Speaker 2] Does everyone in manhattan have good fashion?


My current goal is to run a k.
I'm currently in high school.
I won homecoming queen this year.
I make straight as in school.

I enjoy exploring new parts of the city.

I play several instruments.

I volunteer at the homeless shelter.

My father played violin professionally.

I've taken up running and am training for a race.

I'm still in my last years of formal schooling.

I'm very popular.

I have always been considered a scholar.

I like seeing different places in a town.

I'm very musical.

I enjoy giving back to my community.

My dad is a musician.

[Speaker 1] Hello. I'm dawn. Who are you?

[Speaker 2] Hello. I'm leigh. I'm at a park I've never been to.

[Speaker 1] Cool. What park? I won homecoming queen and went to the park that night

[Speaker 2] Not sure. I was just exploring the city and found it. How old are you?

[Speaker 1] I am 16. Currently in high school. How old are you?

[Speaker 2] I am 34 and I play many instruments. Are you in band?

[Speaker 1] I'm in band at school. I make straight as! What instruments do you play?

[Speaker 2] I play trombone, alto sax, baritone, and trumpet. You?

[Speaker 1] I play the sax. Do you run? My goal is to run a k!

[Speaker 2] I don't run. I'm constantly moving at the shelter I work at though.

[Speaker 1] You should try to run! Its fun! Moving is good too!

[Speaker 2] No! I'll start violin as a new hobby, like my father.

[Speaker 1] I did play the violin last year in band. I didn't like it

[Speaker 2] It isn't for everyone. My dad made his living. I will try.

[Speaker 1] Did you go to homecoming when you were in school? I had a blast at mine

[Speaker 2] I did not go. Who did you go with?

My name is Dawn.

I won homecoming queen. I really enjoyed homecoming. I am 16. I am in high school.

I play saxophone in band at school. I have good grades.

I like to run. My goal is to run a K.

I tried playing violin and didn't like it.

My name is Leigh. I am 34.

I live in a city. I like to explore the city.

I don't run. I work at a shelter.

I didn't go to homecoming.

[Speaker 1] What is it like working at a shelter?

[Speaker 2] Sometimes hard, the stories you hear are pretty sad. But it's always uplifting. Everyone is always pretty thankful for the help.

[Speaker 1] That's good, yeah I imagine some of the things you would hear are upsetting. It's very good that you help people. How did you get into that line of work?

[Speaker 2] I just started volunteering one day in highschool to get some hours for graduation. I didn't expect to do it long but I felt so needed there and the work seemed so important to me.

[Speaker 1] Awesome. I'm not sure what I want to do as a career at all.  Maybe volunteering will help me decide.

[Speaker 2] You're young, don't worry too much. But yes, any sort of volunteering would be some great life experience, even if you go to a local library and help them put books back or something. Anything will broaden your horizons a bit.

[Speaker 1] That's an idea. It will probably help with my college applications as well!

[Speaker 2] For sure, it always looks great. What are your hobbies right now? Maybe you could find something that intersects.

[Speaker 1] At the moment I am playing in my school band and have just taken up running. I'm training at the moment and hoping to run a K next week. I'm so unfit but!

[Speaker 2] Wow, that's more than I've ever run. I just can't push myself like that.

[Speaker 1] I didn't think I would like running but I actually do. Have you found any new parts of the city?

[Speaker 2] I found a small street in China town I didn't know about before. They have a little market some days with some really interesting food. Always a nice treat.

My name is Dawn.

I won homecoming queen. I am 16. I am in high school.

I like to run. My goal is to run a K.

I don't know what to do as a career.

My name is Leigh. I am 34.

I play trombone, alto saxophone, baritone, and trumpet. I want to learn to play violin. My father plans violin.

I don't run. I work at a shelter. I started volunteering in high school.

I didn't go to homecoming.

I can't run a K.

[Speaker 1] Did you find any interesting food during your last trip to the Chinatown street?

[Speaker 2] I found a new place, well... new to me, that served the best steamed buns. I will go back there again. Do you like Chinese food?

[Speaker 1] I do! it's one of my favorite quisines. do you like indian food? that's my other favorite

[Speaker 2] I have yet to experience a lot of India cuisine, what are some dishes you would recomend?

[Speaker 1] my favorites are saag and tikka masala. it's a really interesting flavor palate with so many spices and cool things to try. you live in a city so there must be a lot of cool restaurants near you!

[Speaker 2] There is so much to explore here and I am trying to widen my verizons. I use to be to very picky about my food. But I have found out,,,,, I like more food than I originally thought. I bet you stay fit no matter what you eat due to the running

[Speaker 1] it's good you're willing to explore new things! the hard thing with running is it makes you hungry but you can't always eat when hungry or you'll eat back more than you burn so it is a delicate balance. but I love to have a cheat day once a week to eat whatever treats my heart dsires!

[Speaker 2] How often do you get a cheat day?

[Speaker 1] usually onc e a week, sometimes twice if i've worked out a lot. I usually track my calories but on cheat days I don't, and let myself have whatever I want for the most part

[Speaker 2] Is it difficult to track your calories? Do you have a good App that helps?

[Speaker 1] it isn't hard once you just get used to doing it. I use myfitnesspal and I like it. it's free and easy to use.

[Speaker 2] Do you set yourself goals or rewards that are not food related? I have been thinking about getting back on the healthy path

My name is Dawn.

I don't know what to do as a career.

I like Chinese food. I like Indian food. Saag and Tikka Masala are my favorite Indian foods.

One or two days a week, I eat whatever I want. I use MyFitnessPal to track my calories.

My name is Leigh. I am 34.

I don't run. I can't run a K. I work at a shelter. I started volunteering in high school.

I didn't go to homecoming.

I frequently visit Chinatown. I like Chinese food. I haven't eaten much Indian food. I used to be a picky eater.

I am thinking about trying to live a healthier life.

[Speaker 1] You mentioned that you were thinking about getting on a healthier path last time we talked. I can help you with a simple diet and exercise plan if you want! To begin, you could start exploring your city on foot. Walking is really good for you!

[Speaker 2] That is a really good idea to be honest. I just feel like walking around the city along would become a bit monotonous after a while though. Do you have any other suggestions?

[Speaker 1] maybe do it with a friend and go to the trails and other please so to switch it up. Walking will be a great start to other things. Is there other physical activities that you like?

[Speaker 2] I really like playing lacrosse. I used to play it a lot when I was younger but it is difficult with the amount of responsibilities that I have at the minute to find time. But, I ought to find time because I love it. Have you ever played Lacrosse before?

[Speaker 1] No i haven't played Lacrosse before, I've heard of it though. You should start back even if it for like 20 mins.

[Speaker 2] I really should. You speak nothing but the truth. Have you been out running lately?

[Speaker 1] yes i just went to do

[Speaker 2] How was it? The weather has been terrible recently, did you manage to find a window in which it didn't rain?

[Speaker 1] it's was great! I didn't really feel like it since the weather been crazy but after i finish i felt relaxed again. Yeah i looked at the weather and seen that i had a good hour before it would start again. Do you think you would try running one day?.

[Speaker 2] I have tried running before but only in short bursts. My knees have been giving me a lot of trouble lately. I have booked a doctor's appointment so hopefully a fix can be identified

[Speaker 1] oh okay, hopefully you can find some relief and fix the problem. I love running but when my knee start hurting i give myself a break. That's way i think walking would be good for you because it would help with your knee and is a good workout. how long has your knee been giving you trouble?

[Speaker 2] My knee has been hurting for a while. I would say a good 6-9 months. I think one of the problems is the shoes I wear. Being my age, I love high heels and that is not good for your knees in the long run

My name is Dawn.

I like to run. My goal is to run a K. I run a lot. I like to run but not in bad weather. I have a bad knee which hurts when I run.

I don't know what to do as a career.

I like to walk. I am knowledgeable about diet and exercise.

I have never played lacrosse.

My name is Leigh. I am 34.

I didn't go to homecoming.

I used to play lacrosse. I have a lot of responsibilities.

I have tried running. I have bad knees which I am seeing a doctor about. I love wearing high heels.

[Speaker 1] Did you get to see the doctor about your knee yet?

[Speaker 2] Yeah they've put me on the list for a knee replacement. How are your knees?

[Speaker 1] It was just an inflammation, they put me in anti-inflammatories, which put me in a terrible mood. I guess you'll have to stop wearing high-heels, huh?

[Speaker 2] I've stopped wearing the 6 inch ones and I'm just wearing my 5 inch heels now which makes me sad :( I hope my husband still finds me sexy.

[Speaker 1] Well I hope he loves you for more than your shoes, if not he's a shallow pool of poop. 5 inches still sounds too high. You can't run in those. I even wore flats at the homecoming dance.

[Speaker 2] I'm so sad I couldn't make it to homecoming because of my father. Who did you take as your date?

[Speaker 1] my best friend lynn. she wore a tux. I wore flats so I wouldn't be taller than her. so shocked that I won homecoming queen, I didn't think anyone would vote for me. Why did you dad make you miss homecoming?

[Speaker 2] You're so pretty and everyone loves you at school so you deserved to win. He's so mean, he always puts his violin rehearsals before me. Do you get on with your family?

[Speaker 1] I get along with them, though I think they think I'm "difficult" haha. It's sad he put music first. I mean I love making music, but family and friends mean so much, you can't put them second

[Speaker 2] Hey, what teenager isn't difficult?! We all go through that kinda phase. What music do you like?

[Speaker 1] To play or to listen to? I love the complexity of jazz, but what I listen to most is the London esoteric underground stuff from the 90s and early aughts. What about you?

[Speaker 2] Wow, sounds cool. I'm really into punk and rock music.


I like to dance.
Now I live in the united states.
My aunt helped me escape when I was of.
I was born in somalia.

I've a pet turtle.

I like to play with my dolls.

I was saved by a relative.
I'm an immigrant.

I have an aquatic animal.

I'm under 5 years old.

I hang out with my bff a lot.

I enjoy playing dress up and create lives for my toys.

[Speaker 1] Hi there! I love to dance, what do you do for fun?

[Speaker 2] Oh cool. Pole dancing? Well I am only 4 and enjoy coloring.

[Speaker 1] How would you know what pole dancing is then, dear?

[Speaker 2] My mom is a pole dancer. My pet turtle is my best friend.

[Speaker 1] That is so sweet. Is that your only friend?

[Speaker 2] Ya they live next door. And my dolls. I live a sheltered life.

[Speaker 1] That's ok! You have plenty of time to grow and learn. I'm from far away.

[Speaker 2] Like in the clouds? I don't really get to see sunlight.

[Speaker 1] My aunt helped me to escape a dangerous place. Now I live a better life.

[Speaker 2] Were you a slave? Sometimes I have to food found in alleys.

[Speaker 1] I lived in somalia and had to fight to survive. You will make it!

[Speaker 2] Do you own fully automatic rifles then?

[Speaker 1] Oh honey no, guns aren't the answer.

[Speaker 2] Wouldn't that just be your personal view?

[Speaker 1] You are only 4, you should not be worrying about this

[Speaker 2] My guns have dolls. Some of them would not be alive today if they didn't.

I love to dance.

I used to live in a dangerous situation. My aunt helped me. I used to live in Somalia. I am against gun violence.

I am 4 years old and enjoy coloring.

My mom is a pole dancer. I have a pet turtle. My dolls and turtle are my only friends.

I spend most of my time inside.

I sometimes have to eat food from the alleys.

[Speaker 1] I had a dance practice today. I was so tired after practice.

[Speaker 2] What kind of dancing do you do?

[Speaker 1] I love ballet dancing. Have you ever tried ballet?

[Speaker 2] No, I'm too young for that, although one of my dolls, Katie, is a ballet dancer.

[Speaker 1] How many dolls do you have? I enjoyed playing with my dolls when I was growing up.

[Speaker 2] Three!  Katie, Sally and Ken, they keep me company when my Mom is at work. She works late at night and brings home bags of dollar bills!

[Speaker 1] If there's one thing I love more than ballet it's bags of dollar bills! Does your turtle have a name?

[Speaker 2] Yes Milely!  She listens to me tell stories about stuff when I'm waiting for Mom to come home.  With Miley, I'm never alone!

[Speaker 1] In the alleys, are there any foodstuffs that you're likely to pick up? Leftovers?

[Speaker 2] Stores just throw out perfectly good stuff all the time!  We save money so Mom can buy her "Stuff" and then we go home and she sleeps all day until it gets dark again.

[Speaker 1] Ah, that makes sense. Sounds pretty tough. Actually reminds me of when I was growing up in Somalia. I'd have killed for some fast food back then.

[Speaker 2] Somalia?  Was there shooting every night like it is here?

I love to dance. I am a ballet dancer. I enjoyed playing with dolls as a child.

I am 4 years old and enjoy coloring.

My mom is a pole dancer.  My mother works until late into the night. I have a pet turtle. My dolls and turtle are my only friends.

I spend most of my time inside.

I have a doll named Katie that is a ballet dancer. I have three dolls named Katie, Sally and Ken.

I have a turtle named Miley who tells me stories.

[Speaker 1] My favorite subject was dance. I did very well, so well, in fact, that I just received word that I got the job I wanted as a dance coach at a high school!

[Speaker 2] Omg that is great, I would love to be a dancer when I am older.

[Speaker 1] If you work hard, you could totally do it! It's best to start young!

[Speaker 2] My mom cannot afford to put me in classes. We can barley afford food.

[Speaker 1] Maybe she could be your teacher? Since your mom is a dancer, you have a unique advantage!

[Speaker 2] She does not do the style of dance I would like to do. I want to be a ballerina. What style of dance do you do?

[Speaker 1] I do ballet! A friend of mine owns a studio where they offer some scholarships. Your mom should look for something like that in your area!

[Speaker 2] Wow that is so cool. Yeah I will ask her next time I see her to see if she can apply for me thank you.

[Speaker 1] Absolutely! I really love seeing young people pursue their dreams. It's why I took this job!

[Speaker 2] If I don’t get in maybe you could help me a little bit if you have the time.

[Speaker 1] I'd be happy to! Perhaps you can put me in touch with your mother and I can help her work something out for you.

[Speaker 2] Thank you so much, you just made me so happy. I cannot wait to tell my mom.

I used to live in a dangerous situation. My aunt helped me. I grew up in Somalia. I did not have fast food where I grew up. I am against gun violence.

I love to dance. I am a ballet dancer. I am a dance coach.  I enjoyed playing with dolls as a child.

I am 4 years old and enjoy coloring.

I spend most of my time inside.

[Speaker 1] I've just contacted my friend who owns the dance studio.  She said there'd be no problem for your mum to speak to her.

[Speaker 2] Oh, okay. That's cool! Do you also take ballet classes at your friends studio?

[Speaker 1] I do work out there yes, and dance at the studio. I keep thinking about being paid to teach, although right now, I help others, I dance too. Do you like to dance?

[Speaker 2] I don't mind dancing, but I prefer coloring. I have a doll named Katie that is a ballet dancer though and my mom is a pole dancer!

[Speaker 1] Yes, yes she is. It is cool that you enjoy your dolls, and have one that dances ballet. Bet your mom likes that too. How's your turtle?

[Speaker 2] Miley is good. She told me an exciting bedtime story the other night about a magical place in the middle of the Earth. Have you ever considered getting a turtle?

[Speaker 1] I like seeing turtles, and hearing about them. Taking care of them, with my busy schedule, might be hard. I really love hearing about Miley. That turtle sounds like great company!

[Speaker 2] Yeah, Miley is a dream. She helps me feel safe in this rough neighborhood and keeps me company since I'm alone a lot.

[Speaker 1] I like knowing you have company when you're in such a situation. I send good thoughts and prayers to you and Miley. Any other dolls that you want to introduce me to?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, it's nice to talk to someone who grew up in a similar situation. You give me hope for the future. I don't have any new dolls at the moment, but I'm hoping for a new one soon. Maybe my next doll will be a dance coach, like you.

[Speaker 1] That would be great! Your ballet dancer doll and the dance coach can play together, like we play here, when we text. You're creative!

[Speaker 2] Yes, that's exactly what I was thinking about! If only I could find a coloring coach, then Miley and I would both have coach friends.

I have a friend who owns a dance studio. I may teach dance to my friend. I am thinking to be paid to teach dance.

I like turtles. I have a busy schedule.

I am 4 years old and enjoy coloring.

I spend most of my time inside.

There is shooting every night in my neighborhood. I am alone a lot. I have only one doll. I want my next doll to be a dance coach. I am searching for a coloring coach.

[Speaker 1] I have finally got an agreement to get paid to teach dance at my friend studio.

[Speaker 2] That's terrific!  I know you've been wanting to do that.  When will you start?

[Speaker 1] They are still coming up with their next season's schedule, but I'm in the mix, and it's exciting to start planning. Thought of you too.

[Speaker 2] That's cool! Can I bring my doll? And my turtle?

[Speaker 1] That is a great thing to look forward to! We should definitely talk about helping your doll dance!

[Speaker 2] Oh, Katie is already a great dancer!  And Miley is her favorite partner!

[Speaker 1] Sounds like you have a regular set up with the dolls, and a turtle that protects them. Nice!

[Speaker 2] Well, I need more dolls. But Miley protects me too.  When I hear shooting, he lets me hide behind him.

[Speaker 1] I hear you, that sounds rough, and I'm glad you aren't alone when scary stuff happens. I want you safe.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, when I get scared, Miley tells me and my dolls stories. Then we aren't as scared.

[Speaker 1] I think it's good to have someone to keep you strong, until you get to the safer place. You are not alone. You have the spirit of a dancer.

[Speaker 2] Thank you!  It's quiet outside now.  I may go look for dinner soon.


I live in california but the recording artist market was dead last year.

I am a recording engineer and own my own studio.

My ex cheated and left me for a lawyer.

I prefer being inside.

Two dogs live with me.

I've short hair.

I like doing the treadmill and rowing machine.

I go to the gym regularly.

I'm located on the west coast but the music industry was slow recently.

I've a degree in music engineering.

I am now single.

My favorite place to be is home.

I have a couple of pets.
I get a buzz cut every two weeks.
I love going to the gym.
I am in great shape!.

[Speaker 1] Hello, my name is leon. I am a audio engineer. How are you?

[Speaker 2] Hello, leon. My dogs and I are doing well.

[Speaker 1] That is good to hear! I've been better, my girlfriend just left me.

[Speaker 2] Oh no. I go to the gym a lot. The treadmill keeps my mind off things.

[Speaker 1] I tend to stick indoors but maybe the gym will help, thanks.

[Speaker 2] You are most welcome. The rowing machine is nice too.

[Speaker 1] That's a full body work out right there. Do you live in california?

[Speaker 2] Sadly, no. My dogs and I are in ohio.

[Speaker 1] I think I need to move. My studio is tanking after the decline of the market.

[Speaker 2] Oh no. I'm moving soon as well. Due to personal reasons.

[Speaker 1] Well I hope your reasons work themselves out. What kind of dogs do you have?

[Speaker 2] I've a springer spaniel and a lab. Do you have pets?

[Speaker 1] Sadly no, they can be very destructive in an audio booth.

[Speaker 2] That's for sure. What kind of music?

My name is Leon. I am an audio engineer.

I am not doing well. My girlfriend just left me. I am single.

I like to stick indoors.

I think I need to move. The market decline is having a negative impact on my life.

I go to the gym a lot. I enjoy the treadmill. I like using a rowing machine.

I live in Ohio.

[Speaker 1] So why do you have to move?

[Speaker 2] I burnt too many bridges here and I want to start fresh in a place no one knows me. Small towns are nice to visit but not for long term.

[Speaker 1] Yeah I get you. I hope you find a good small town, Which ones are you considering?

[Speaker 2] Oh no. I'm coming from a small town. I want to go bigger. I'm tired of small towns. Everyone gossips.

[Speaker 1] That makes a lot more sense. haha! Big cities are the same if not worse, depending on what crowd you are in. If you are in the world where networking is your life, then they gossip too.

[Speaker 2] That is so true! Where do you think you might move to? East coast or West coast or somewhere in-between

[Speaker 1] I feel like moving to Santa Barbara. It is a good size city, but also low key. Have you been there? Is it on the west coast.

[Speaker 2] No but it sounds nice. I will google it. Maybe it's right for me.

[Speaker 1] It could be. What towns are you looking into? Have you seen some places yet?

[Speaker 2] I want to find an area with great city night life and parks to visit during the day. Do think Santa Barbara is like that? I don't want to drive too much either.

[Speaker 1] Maybe Sacramento up north or San Diego down south. I feel like those may be your best bet. I like both of those cities.

[Speaker 2] That sounds great. Maybe we could get together when we move! Go out for a night on the town!

I like to stick indoors.

I want to move to Santa Barbara. I like Sacramento and San Diego.

I go to the gym a lot. I enjoy the treadmill and a rowing machine.

I live in Ohio.

[Speaker 1] I found a city that you might like to move to!

[Speaker 2] Oh really!? What were you thinking? Hopefully it's got lots to do in walking distance.

[Speaker 1] It is in vermont. There are lots of places for hiking.

[Speaker 2] Oh sounds nice, I've never been. How are the winters there? Does it get cold?

[Speaker 1] Yes, a little bit colder than Ohio. You have to wear winter gear to hike in winter. But there are lots of places where you can hike with your dogs.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I bet they'd love that. My lab slows down in the summer a lot. I'll have to plan a visit soon. Have you ever been?

[Speaker 1] I think I will try to find a romantic partner online. What do you think about it ?

[Speaker 2] That's a popular place to look. I have some friends who met that way and seem pretty happy. I'd so go for it.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, I don't think I will cheer up by keeping indoors and alone. Maybe I should get a dog too, what do you recommend for a first dog ?

[Speaker 2] They're great to have around. Depends on your activity level and space. Big dogs are super friendly, but of course need more walking, and more space. Any dog can be a great dog if you train it right. Spend some time at your local shelter and look around!

[Speaker 1] That is a good idea. It is that how you got your dogs ?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I think they have so much personality. You can really tell how much they appreciate their lives after the shelter I think.

I like to stick indoors.

I do not have dogs, but I would like to. I don't have any pets.  I live alone.

I have 2 dogs, a springer spaniel and a labrador. I have a lab that loves hiking. I got my dogs from a shelter.

I want to find an area with nightlife and parks. I don't want to drive much. I've never been to Vermont.

[Speaker 1] I visited a shelter the other day to check out their animals!

[Speaker 2] Good job, I think checking out the shelter for a dog, is much better than a breeder or store. Did any of the dogs catch your eye?

[Speaker 1] There was a gorgeous labrador, actually, which is quite tempting. If we ever meet up we can take them for play-dates!

[Speaker 2] That's a great thing to look forward to. Love a lab dog!  Tan, black, both are good. Some have long hair too, reds.... Wonder how a dog would fit where you live?

[Speaker 1] I think I'd be planning on moving whenever I get one, my apartment wouldn't be great. You had any luck figuring out where you want to move to?

[Speaker 2] Still researching things, there's a lot to look at. Especially how close a new place will be to night life, parks, for the dogs. Think at least 2 bedrooms. You're single now, that offers more options too.

[Speaker 1] Yeah for sure, gotta take the positives I guess. You know, Sacramento has some pretty great gyms, since you're into that. Could be worth a look.

[Speaker 2] Good to know! The standard of living there is a little so so though. Been also thinking more Southern California too I guess. You mentioned Santa Barbara too?

My girlfriend just left me. I am single. I am not dating anyone or married to anyone.

I like to stick indoors.

I do not have dogs, but I would like to. I don't have any pets.  I live alone in an apartment. If I got a dog, I would have to move to get more space for it.

I live in Ohio. I will be moving soon for personal reasons. I am from a small town. I am moving to a bigger town. I probably live with at least one other person.

I think that it is better to go to a shelter to adopt a dog instead of other avenues. I love labradors of all colors.

I am into exercising.

[Speaker 1] I cracked and adopted that labrador from the shelter! Looks like I'll be moving sooner rather than later.

[Speaker 2] Oh they are great pets. Is it a chocolate lab? How old? Male or female? I am so excited for you!

[Speaker 1] It is a chocolate lab! It's a boy, right now it is a puppy so I need to hurry up and move. Luckily I have a few places to look at already

[Speaker 2] Yeah, you will definitely need a yard with a fence if he's still young. And a big enough one he can grow into. Or find a place near a dog park so you can go daily. Labs are very energetic!

[Speaker 1] I just didn't want the chance of someone else getting him you know. But now I'm worried because I didn't plan on getting a lab so early

[Speaker 2] Don't worry about it!  As long as you get him out to exercise as often as possible and actively look for a place, he will be fine. Make sure to get pigs ears and stuff for him to chew on. They take a while to get out of that habit.

[Speaker 1] Are those okay for dogs? I don't want to get anything too hard that might harm his little teeth

[Speaker 2] Oh yeah. He will be teething for a while it will help loosen his teeth he has to lose and help sharpen the ones that grow in. My dogs loved them as pups

[Speaker 1] Speaking of your dogs, how have they been?

[Speaker 2] They are both doing amazing. They are ready to start going swimming this summer! Maybe they could use a new friend? Your pup might help them get out their extra energy

[Speaker 1] That would be fantastic, I've read that it is good to acclimate puppies with other dogs so when they get older it is not much of a problem meeting other dogs

[Speaker 2] Exactly! Plus my dogs love playing with kids and puppies.

[Speaker 1] That would be a great idea.

[Speaker 1] Same here! I'm a professional dog walker. Just walked two labs.

[Speaker 2] Oh that sounds fun. I like dogs.

[Speaker 1] Me too! I love kayaking almost as much.

[Speaker 2] I love hamburgers and french fries, but not soda. Are you married?

[Speaker 1] No, single. I just graduated college. You?

[Speaker 2] I am married and we just bought a house.

[Speaker 1] Oh, very cool. I hope you two like it.

[Speaker 2] Yes it is nice. Is kayaking dangerous?

[Speaker 1] Depends on where you do it. On rapids, yes. On streams, not so much.

[Speaker 2] I see. What did you major in?

[Speaker 1] Psychology. I read a lot of psych journals in my free time as well.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a lot of work.

[Speaker 1] It was. Getting started on the phd next year.

[Speaker 2] Education is something that no one can ever take away.

I'm a professional dog walker.

I love dog. I love kayaking.

I love dog.

I love hamburgers and french fries, but not soda.

I am married and i own a house.

[Speaker 1] Do you think to buy a dog

[Speaker 2] I have been watching the shelters around me. I'm thinking I may go get one this weekend!

[Speaker 1] Awesome! Any idea what size or breed you would like or are you not bothered?

[Speaker 2] I like the idea of a bigger dog. They're just so big and friendly. There's a nice lab I visited. He's still on hold and getting some shots, but I haven't stopped thinking about him.

[Speaker 1] Hopefully you will be able to get him. Labs are great dogs although they do need alot of exercise. Do you think you will need a dog walker or will you be able to do that yourself?

[Speaker 2] We have a pretty decent sized yard, and a nice dog park in our neighborhood. But, if I do need a walker, I know who to call!

[Speaker 1] Haha, good to know! There is a lot more competition now, loads of people have started up dog walking business' near me.

[Speaker 2] I imagine it's an easy business to start, but hard to keep with it. How long have you been doing it?

[Speaker 1] I started it in college. It took alot of effort to build up my business' but now mostly it is repeat customers as they trust me with their pets. I do enjoy it , nearly all of the dogs are well behaved.

[Speaker 2] That is nice, you have long term customers at least. How do you think your PHD studies will work in with your business?

[Speaker 1] It should be fine. It is pretty flexible and most people understand. What about your work?

[Speaker 2] I guess it could be a nice break from studying sometimes too, getting outside and walking around. It's been fine. Work is work, ups and downs. I can't complain though. Pays the bills.

I love dog. I love kayaking.

I am married and i own a house.

I might get a dog this weekend. I want a big dog. I met a lab at the shelter, and I havne't stopped thinking about him.

I have a decent sized yard and there is a dog park in my neighborhood.

[Speaker 1] I have to know! Did you get a dog last weekend?

[Speaker 2] I did! I got the lab that I met and he's adorable :) his name is Ben! Do you want to come around and see him next weekend if you're not too busy walking other dogs?!

[Speaker 1] I'd love to! I may have a dog with me, is he friendly with other dogs?

[Speaker 2] Yeah he's friendly with other dogs, he is really calm and placid! Did you manage to do any kayaking this week? I've always wanted to try it but i'm not that strong of a swimmer - would that be a problem?

[Speaker 1] I haven't yet. I want to soon though with the weather getting nicer. I could show you some weekend, it's not too hard and lots of fun.

[Speaker 2] That would be amazing, I look forward to it! Do you Kayak in open water, or on rivers? I don't suppose the dogs could fit in the kayak as well could they?!

[Speaker 1] I find rivers, but we could find a local lake or something to practice on. If we bring a friend they could sit with the dogs. Does your lab swim at all?

[Speaker 2] Nice, I bet rivers are a bit more complicated and dangerous? My husband would definitely come with us, so he could mind the dogs :) He does swim, but I'm not sure he enjoys it that much .. He always looks really flustered when he comes out .. a bit like me!

[Speaker 1] It's not too dangerous depending on where you go. This sounds like a nice day though. I'll pick up some food and we can have lunch or something. I can bring some balls and the dogs can chase them around.

[Speaker 2] Aw that sounds soo good I can't wait! I haven't seen you since you said you were going to start your PHD - did you get all of that sorted? I bet you can't wait - are you going to keep walking dogs or move into a different career using your qualifications?

[Speaker 1] I am excited, it's been a long time in the works. I think I will. I'm staying in town, so I think it will be a nice way to take a break from studying.

[Speaker 2] Yeah sounds like a plan, you need something else to take your mind off the everyday grind! So how many dogs do you tend to walk at a time? I can't imagine walking more than one - he's an absolute nutter even when he's on a lead!

I'm a professional dog walker. I started as a dog walker in college. It took a lot of effort to build up my business. I love dog. I love kayaking.

I am not married. I am graduated. My major is Psychology. i love to read psych journals. I will start phd next year. I am starting my PHD. I think I will keep walking dogs. I am staying in town.

I am married and i own a house. I have a husband.

I just got a lab. His name is Ben.

I've never been kayaking. I'm not a strong swimmer. I don't like to swim.

I have trouble walking my dog.

[Speaker 1] I was thinking about you guys and I'm wondering if you want to try to do that kayaking this weekend?

[Speaker 2] I would love to give it a go. I would need some life jackets though as I would be worried about not being able to swim.

[Speaker 1] Life jackets are always required so the place we go to will provide one for you.

[Speaker 2] That's a relief. I think I would be happier to do with a group of others until I get comfortable with it.

[Speaker 1] Kayaking with friends is a lot more fun then going alone. Im sure your gonna have a blast.

[Speaker 2] I sure it will be lot of fun. Are you excited about starting your PhD?

[Speaker 1] I am exited! Once i get it i can get my dream job. Did you attend school?

[Speaker 2] What's your dream job? I did go to school, I studied geography.

[Speaker 1] I want to be a therapist. Oh nice, what do you do now?

[Speaker 2] That will be cool. I am an actually a town planner. I design how to layout new towns.

[Speaker 1] That sounds like an awesome job. How old is your dog ben?

[Speaker 2] Ben is getting quite old now, he is 13. Hopefully got a good few more years left in him.

I'm a professional dog walker. I started as a dog walker in college. It took a lot of effort to build up my business. I love dog.I like to kayak with friends.

My dream job is a therapist.

I just got a lab. His name is Ben.

I have trouble walking my dog.

I would like to try kayaking. I am nervous about doing things for the first time.

I studied geography at school,.

I am a town planner, I help design the layout of new towns.

[Speaker 1] I have been out walking a dog, he was called Ben, I thought of you.

[Speaker 2] That's nice! I thought of you too while I was out walking Ben.

[Speaker 1] Walking dogs has been a great task to spend time at. I love the sun and seeing the different dogs at the dog park. How's your Ben?

[Speaker 2] I think he has a stomach ache.  He tried to eat a dead squirrel.  What will your doctoral dissertation be about? Do you know yet?

[Speaker 1] Psychology. I like to study people, and why they do things. Sorry to hear about the tummy issue with the dog. Some animals love to eat ANYTHING and it makes for vet bills!

[Speaker 2] Maybe you should think about being a dog psychologist.  Find out why animals do silly things like that! haha

[Speaker 1] Well, I'd venture they enjoy eating weird stuff. How is that for a therapy conclusion? Makes me laugh. Looking forward to some rest this weekend.

[Speaker 2] That's good.  With all that walking and studying, you probably need some time to relax.  Are planning another kayak trip soon, or will that have to wait?

[Speaker 1] Usually I get a trip or two every summer, so we'll assume that pattern stands. I have to clear out some other things, to make room for planning that fun. I'd invite you, but know how you feel about swimming.

[Speaker 2] Thank you, but yeah.  I like the thought of kayaking, but I can barely dog paddle.  I'm not keen on drowning.

[Speaker 1] You would be amazed at the nice life jackets they design these days. People who don't swim, can sometimes be safe and have fun. I hear you though.

[Speaker 2] Maybe Ben can teach me to swim if I can ever teach him to go for a walk and not eat roadkill.


I was poor growing up.
I'm a retired gym teacher.
I like watching war documentaries.
Cheeseburgers are my favorite food.
I volunteer at a soup kitchen.

I have been trying all types of food everywhere I go.

Hey there I'm 23 and I love food.

I've been traveling the world for a years.

I also like to cook but I'm not very good at it.

I own a yacht and I rent it out when I'm not using it.

I do not know what it is like to have money.

I loved working out with children.

I am a history buff.

I go to mcdonalds often.

Charity work gives me fulfillment.

I am open to new experiences.

I try new restaurants all the time.

I've made my way around earth for decades.

I am trying to learn how to create recipes.

I lease luxury boats.

[Speaker 1] Hello. How are you today?

[Speaker 2] Good today. Just cooking some mexican food. I cooking but am not very good.

[Speaker 1] Oh I like mexican food, but my favorite food are cheeseburgers

[Speaker 2] I inherited some money and bought a yacht to travel, I try different foods traveling

[Speaker 1] I help out at a soup kitchen since I grew up poor.

[Speaker 2] Cheeseburgers are great, I try all kinds of foods everywhere I go, gotta love food.

[Speaker 1] Yes, do you like war documentaries? I do

[Speaker 2] I like travel logs and have been all over the world for years since high school

[Speaker 1] Sounds great, I'm retired, I was a gym teacher

[Speaker 2] I need a job and will put my yacht up for rent. I could teach.

[Speaker 1] Sounds like a good plan, what would you like to teach?

[Speaker 2] Economics would be my first choice.

[Speaker 1] That sounds good, I bet you'd be a good teacher.

[Speaker 2] I'd try. What hobbies do you have now that you are retired?

[Speaker 1] Watching was documentaries, how about you?

[Speaker 2] I like cooking shows. I should probably take some classes to improve.

I am a helper at a soup kitchen.

I was a gym teacher and now I am retired.

I like war documentaries. I love watching documentaries in my spare time.

I like cooking and eating mexican food. I like trying new food. I like cooking shows.

I own a yacht.

I have visited a lot of countries.

I need to get a job. I would like to teach economics.

[Speaker 1] What was the most beautiful country you have visited? Or at least give me your top 5, I would like to hear it.

[Speaker 2] My favorite region is the Caribbean so I would say top five are Jamaica, St. Lucia, Aruba, The Dominican Republic, and Barbados.

[Speaker 1] Wow, you've really seen a lot of the area! I've been to the Dominican Republic, but haven't been to any of the others yet. But now that I'm retired, I'm hoping to take more vacations - especially cruises!

[Speaker 2] Yeah, cruises are the best. It's like two vacations in one. The trip there is a vacation and then when you dock, you have another vacation exploring the country.

[Speaker 1] True. Not to mention all the food you can eat! And an on board gym to balance it out...haha. I've got to stay in shape because sometimes I still substitute teach if they need someone for the gym classes.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, lol. There is nothing worse than a gym teacher that is out of shape. I'm thinking about teaching economics online so I can still travel the world.

[Speaker 1] That's a great idea. Would you be able to teach from your yacht? I'm sure the students would love to see that!

[Speaker 2] Yes, I can teach from my yacht because I have a satellite internet system installed. As long as the weather is great I can get online and my yacht would serve as motivation for them to manage their money well too.

[Speaker 1] That's so true! I'm sure you'll be a great economics teacher because you've lived it, and have so much real life experience to share. And telling about all the places you've gotten to visit will be motivating as well!

[Speaker 2] So, have you seen any good documentaries lately? I have a Netflix subscription that I watch sometimes in the middle of a trip.

[Speaker 1] Have you seen Dawn Wall? That one was amazing. It made me want to go to Yosemite! You'd have to find another mode of transport besides yacht though...

[Speaker 2] No I haven't seen that one yet, but I've seen Free Solo, which is about a similar subject so I think I'll like it.

I also like mexican but prefer cheesburgers. I am a helper at a soup kitchen.

I was a gym teacher. I have to stay in shape because I still substitute teach gym class.

I've been to the Dominican Republic. I'm recently retired and plan to take more vacations, especially cruises.

I have visited a lot of countries.

I need to get a job. I'm thinking about teaching economics online so I can still travel the world.

I have a yacht that has a satellite internet system, so I can teach from it.

[Speaker 1] Have you applied to teach economics anywhere?

[Speaker 2] Not yet but I am considering my options. Have you seen any good war documentaries recently?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I have seen a few and I have rewatched a couple that I have found really interesting over the years. Do you have any upcoming travel plans?

[Speaker 2] No plans at the moment, I want to sort out my teaching platform first. But once that's done I will start planning for real.

[Speaker 1] Okay, that is so nice that you will be able to teach from your yacht! You will still be able to travel all over the world.

[Speaker 2] That's the plan! I love the carribean but can't wait to travel to Australia and the Maldives

[Speaker 1] I have always wanted to go to both of those places, I really wish that I would take more time to travel.

[Speaker 2] Won't you have time to do that now that you are retired?

[Speaker 1] Yes that is what I am hoping for but I always seem to make an excuse for why I can't go. I really need to make it a goal.  Have you tried any new food recently?

[Speaker 2] Oh, I went to this new fusion restaurant, it was indian-chinese! Interesting combination but it was delicious! Quite spicy. How about you?

[Speaker 1] We recently got a new hamburger spot in town. They put anything you can imagine on their burger but I just stuck with what I usually get. The burger was still very good.

[Speaker 2] You're making me hungry. I haven't had burgers in ages.

I have seen Dawn Wall and I liked it. Now I want to go to Yosemite. I do not travel a lot.

I have visited a lot of countries. My favorite region is the Caribbean. I like Jamaica, St. Lucia, Aruba, The Dominican Republic, and Barbados. I think cruises are the best vacation.

I watch documentaries on Netflix. I have seen Free Solo but not Dawn Wall. I like war documentaries. I also just started to teach economics. I am a teacher.

[Speaker 1] I am thinking about traveling across the USA.

[Speaker 2] Really? why the sudden interest in travel?

[Speaker 1] Oh, I've been thinking about it for some time. I'd really like to see some of the National Parks.  I definitely want to include Yosemite on my trip.

[Speaker 2] That sounds exiting. Any states in particular you want to visit?

[Speaker 1] Well, there are a lot of National parks in the western part of the country.  Yosemite, the Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, etc. I think I'll rent an RV.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a good idea. I know there are some nice parks around Tennessee, Kentucky, and West Virginia?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I've been to the Smokies, and the Everglades. I think I'd rather travel further west this time though. I've never been west of the Mississippi.

[Speaker 2] Western United States is extremely beautiful so i know your going to enjoy it.

[Speaker 1] Maybe I'll even get to the Redwood forest!  Have a lot more time on my hands now. When I was working I could only take short trips close to home.

[Speaker 2] I have never been but i have seen pictures in textbooks and it looks very cool.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, I've always been impressed. I think I'm going to start taking two vacations a year. One in the states, and one abroad or in the Caribbean.

[Speaker 2] I love the Caribbean. If you need information about it let me know.

I have seen Dawn Wall and I liked it. I do not travel a lot. I want to travel across the USA. I want to visit Yosemite, the Grand Canyon and Yellowstone. I want to rent an RV. I am interested in the Western part of USA. I have not visited anywhere west of the Mississippi. I have visited the Smokies and Everglades. I want to go to the Redwood forest. I am not working. I want to visit the Caribbean.

I know of some nice parks around Tennessee, Kentucky, and West Virginia. I like the Western part of USA. I have not been to the Redwood forest.

[Speaker 1] I have started packing for my trip; I think I need to upgrade to a bigger backpack and get some better hiking boots.

[Speaker 2] Are you heading to Yosimite? That will be a wonderful trip. I don't know if I'll be able to afford a trip this summer, but maybe I can find a deal on a cruise. I hope you'll take pictures on your trip - I want to see them.

[Speaker 1] Yes, Yosemite! With your economics expertise, and financing skill, I'm sure you could afford a trip even if you start planning for it late. Hey, you could even meet me in Yosemite and we could room together. I'll definitely take pictures and share them with you, unless you decide to come see it for yourself!

[Speaker 2] That does sound fun, I could probably use some fresh air and nature. Have you seen any good documentaries lately?

[Speaker 1] I haven't watched any new documentaries lately, but since I really enjoy that medium, I thought of creating some documentaries of my own. It would be good to leave behind a legacy of my travels, along with my family, friends, and students I've kept in touch with over the years. A testament of my life to share with those who come after me. Have you see anything interesting on Netflix?

[Speaker 2] Aside from being hooked on the great british baking show, I also caught that documentary about the opioid epidemic.  it was grim. Making your own documentaries is a great idea. Are you going to do some filming at Yosemite?

[Speaker 1] Definitely! And hopefully some interviews with some of the locals who frequently visit. It could be something good to spend my time on now that I'm retired. A lot of my buddies who retired are enjoying a quiet home life, and same old routines day to day. I get bored quickly though, and am always looking for something new to try.

[Speaker 2] Well it sounds like your keeping busy and doing fun and interesting things, so hopefully retirement will be exciting for you and not boring. I really like the documentary idea. I'm in no real hurry to retire. Teaching may not be the most exotic gig but teaching remotely from the deck of a boat isn't half bad.

[Speaker 1] Definitely! I think that as long as your job is enjoyable and doesn't always feel like "work", there is no rush to retire. For me, it was just getting harder in my age to keep up with all my PE students. I did enjoy it though, which is why I'm always open to substitute teaching whenever I'm asked.

[Speaker 2] Well if I come to Yosemite with you, that means you have to come sailing with me, deal?

[Speaker 1] Sounds good! So where are we sailing, buddy?

[Speaker 2] just get your passport ready. I'll surprise you. haha

[Speaker 2] Not very ethical in my opinion

[Speaker 1] Yeah, well awesome man. I like to be positive

[Speaker 2] I play music and I rock

[Speaker 1] Yeah? Well in real life I play music and rock

[Speaker 2] My favorite word is trabajo

[Speaker 1] Yeah it fits you well

[Speaker 2] I am going to study french next

[Speaker 1] Cool, good luck with that

[Speaker 2] I also study ebonics and sh

[Speaker 1] Awesome you are stellar, maybe become president?

[Speaker 2] No you should do that


I work at a bank.
I am expecting twins in two months.
I just bought my first home.
I am an omnivore.
A already have a children.

Since the surgery I've had strange powers.

I had to have a transplant.

I can move objects with my mind.

I was born with my heart outside my body.

I am a boy.

I protect money.
I am pregnant with children.
I'm a homeowner.
I enjoy eating plants.
I've two daughters.

After my operation, I can read minds.
I owe my life to an organ donor.
I have telekinesis.
I entered the world with some issues.
I am male.

[Speaker 1] Hi! How is it going?

[Speaker 2] I had surgery a week ago now I've stranger powers

[Speaker 1] Wow, like what?! A week ago I just moved to my new house.

[Speaker 2] I am just a boy with a heart outside my body

[Speaker 1] That is not where it belongs.

[Speaker 2] Had a brain transplant now I move objects with my mind

[Speaker 1] My son says he can do the same after watching star wars

[Speaker 2] Your son sounds really awesome

[Speaker 1] He is unique. He has been acting weird since finding out I'm pregnant.

[Speaker 2] Wow congrats that is so cool

[Speaker 1] Thanks but it makes my job at the bank really hard.

[Speaker 2] I bet, are you banking on a girl or boy?

[Speaker 1] Two girls. I'm hoping they are omnivores like me.

[Speaker 2] Yeah nice job getting all those blue sentences in!

[Speaker 1] I do not know what you are talking about. Are you feeling ok?

[Speaker 2] Yes I'm thanks so much!

I moved into a new house a week ago.

My son loves watching star wars. My son is unique but he has been acting weird ever since he found out I am pregnant. I am pregnant with twin girls.

I work in a bank.

I received powers from surgery I had last week. My heart is outside my body.

I am feeling okay.

[Speaker 1] I am very exhausted from redecorating my new house. Also, job has been rough lately

[Speaker 2] how many more rooms have you got to decorate at your new place?

[Speaker 1] just my son's room and the twin's future room. Only so much i can do in a day, but i can only imagine what you can accomplish with your powers in a day.

[Speaker 2] well exactly I can do things in a fraction of the time these days, I was going to offer my assistance! When are the twins due?

[Speaker 1] 3 months from now. I have my own stool at the bank for me to sit on to rest my feet. I can only imagine how much free time you have.

[Speaker 2] really getting there! Glad to hear the bank are helping you out, I was worried the stress of your work might not be doing the twins any good

[Speaker 1] The stress is being kept at bay. You want to talk about stress though, the stress i would be under if i was like you with my heart outside my body. What do you do to protect it?

[Speaker 2] yes I do have to be very careful! Avoiding crowds is one of the keys to success I'd say. Although it is covered by a lightweight metal frame, so that takes most of the little knocks without any worries

[Speaker 1] That's good to know. You also have your telepathy if you see anything harmful coming. Be able to stop it that way. Have you used your powers to help anyone?

[Speaker 2] unfortunately it's not easy to use my powers to protect myself, the heart being on the outside is my kryptonite if you will!  I have been trying to use my powers to help people, but it often freaks them out a little. I did manage to stop a car before it hit a pedestrian though

[Speaker 1] HAve to do what you can do. Glad you can help someone in need. Made try a way to make your appearance more inviting. Kind of how i'm trying to make my new home.

[Speaker 2] yes that's a good idea. maybe if I help you out with the rest of your decorating you could help me out with my appearance?

I moved into a new house a week ago, which I am redecorating. I'm hoping to make my new home seem more inviting.

My son loves watching star wars. My son is unique but he has been acting weird ever since he found out I am pregnant. I am pregnant with twin girls which are due in three months.

I work in a bank. My job has recently been rough.

I am keeping stress at bay.

I claim to be telepathic, but it's difficult to use my powers to protect myself so I mostly use them to help others. People are often freaked out by me and/or my claimed powers. I claim to have saved a pedestrian by stopping a car with my powers.

I would like help with my appearance.

[Speaker 1] Aside from your awesome new superpowers, how are you feeling doing with the recover of your surgery? It was what, only about two weeks ago. Did you also gain powers to help you heal?

[Speaker 2] I mean it is an adjustment to take in these new capabilities. I was thinking that maybe I could help you redecorate and you could help me with my appearance?

[Speaker 1] I think that's a fair trade-off! What in particular do you need help with?

[Speaker 2] I could ask the same of you! What would you like help with in your house? I would like help with covering my heart since it is now outside of my body. Do you have any suggestions on this metal contraption that protects it?

[Speaker 1] As I always say, if you've got it, flaunt it! Try wearing clothes that accentuate that unique feature! I could use some help with hanging heavy objects like chandeliers and such. Your powers would be very helpful.

[Speaker 2] Yes, they really could be of use! I don't mind helping you lifting heavy objects so that we can redecorate your house! I appreciate your suggestion on my appearance. Maybe we could set a date and time to get together and tackle both issues at once?

[Speaker 1] I think that's a good plan! What does your schedule tend to be like?

[Speaker 2] I am pretty open to be honest. What sort of heavy objects would we be working with though? I may need to plan and prepare before we get together.

[Speaker 1] I have a few chandeliers, and there are some heavy urns and sculptures that I need to move out of my garage.

[Speaker 2] Okay, that doesn't sound too daunting. I am thinking maybe early next week we could probably get everything in order, if your schedule will allow? Are you going to be referencing a theme or anything for your new house decorations?

[Speaker 1] That would work perfectly! I'm going for a classical theme. Lots of marble and plaster and such. I think you'll like it!

[Speaker 2] That does sound lovely! I think maybe we can take inspiration from your home decorating to my appearance possibly?

I am keeping stress at bay.

I am redecorating my home. I am knowledgeable about fashion.  I am hanging new chandeliers in my home. I like classical decoration.

I have a garage. There are heavy urns and sculptures in my garage.

I like decorating.

I am not too busy.

[Speaker 1] Are you still going to the doctor often for follow up appointments?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I have to.  Fortunately my telekinetic powers keep things from bumping into my heart. but i still like the doctor to check things out.

[Speaker 1] I think it is best to have a doctor check everything out. You never know if need any extra help. What led to you needing a new brain?

[Speaker 2] The old one wasn't working quite right.  I couldn't make anything move with it.

[Speaker 1] Was it always broken like that, or did it suddenly stop working?

[Speaker 2] Well, it never could do that, really, that's just a perk with the new brain.  The real problem was that my telepathy started working backwards and everyone could read MY thoughts!

[Speaker 1] Wow that could be a problem. I am not sure I would people to read my mind! Has your new brain changed the way you decorate?

[Speaker 2] Yes, that's why I'm not so busy. I just tell the paintbrush to go to work on it's own, while I try to read the minds of people on TV.

[Speaker 1] That must make it so much easier than having to do the painting. Although I enjoy the feeling of a brush in my hand.

[Speaker 2] See? I knew you were going to say that!

[Speaker 1] Do you know I am thinking about at the moment? I will try to hide it from you.

[Speaker 2] You are thinking that your new chandeliers might fall on your head.  Don't worry, I'll use my powers to keep them in place for you!

I am keeping stress at bay.

I like to paint.

I received powers from surgery I had last week. My heart is outside my body, it has a metal frame so I have little worries with it beyond avoiding crowds. I also had a brain transplant and can move objects with my mind. I am adjusting after my surgery. I need continued medical assistance to prevent an issue with my heart. I have telekinetic powers. I received a new brain.

I like decorating.

I am not too busy.

I paint while I watch TV.

[Speaker 1] How are your telekinetic powers holding up with the new brain?

[Speaker 2] Well, it is kind of hard to keep myself from accidentally doing things. And I am not sure how long it will take to get it better.

[Speaker 1] Have you managed to bend any spoons?

[Speaker 2] I would like to remind people that is something everyone can do, as the spoon isn't real.

[Speaker 1] Kind of like schrodingers cat?

[Speaker 2] Well yes and no. I do claim that I was able to lift a kitten out of a tree the other day, but nobody will believe me, they think it jumped down.

[Speaker 1] Or maybe it flew away? Did I ever mention that I can fly?

[Speaker 2] OMG that is so cool. I tried to do it by lifting myself with my brain, but it was too hard. Can you fly with me after you have the babies?

[Speaker 1] Of course :) I usually have to convert to my alternative form before I'm able to fly so I hope that won't frighten you too much...

[Speaker 2] If you can deal with my heart being in a box outside my body, I think we will both be just fine. As long as you don't drop me.

[Speaker 1] That shouldn't be a problem. You can't see any of the blood from the outside can you? That could be a problem for me.

[Speaker 2] Oh no. It isn't all that bad. and I usually have clothes on over it haha. I am so excited now. We could make a great team!
