Its red with blue stripe so it shiny when I race.

I've light skin with big brown eyes.

My main transportation is my motorbike.

I wear a motorbike helmet to protect my head.

I am a doctor.
I'm now looking for a new job.
My favorite movie is friday.
I enjoy going to the park.

The primary colored stripes attract attention when I run.

I am american.

I ride a motorcycle nearly everywhere I go.

I ride my motorcycle everywhere.

My job is a gynecologist.

I'm seeking a different employment opportunity.

A film named after the last day of the work week is the best.

I like being outdoors.

[Speaker 1] Hello! How are you this fine day?

[Speaker 2] Good. Enjoying the park today. How about you?

[Speaker 1] Just got back from a motorcycle ride. Did you have a picnic?

[Speaker 2] No, just walking for exercise and then going to see friday at the cinema.

[Speaker 1] I'm not an exerciser. I take my motorcycle everywhere even in rain.

[Speaker 2] Be careful on slippery roads. I'm looking to move out west soon

[Speaker 1] Yeah. I wear my helmet to protect my head. Bumped it before. Where to?

[Speaker 2] Near ca. I'm applying for jobs in the south at hospitals.

[Speaker 1] I'd get burnt there with my fair skin and brown eyes. You a doctor?

[Speaker 2] Yes, what do you do?

[Speaker 1] I'm a vet. Primarily on farms

[Speaker 2] Interesting. School is very expensive. I have a lot of loans I'm paying back

[Speaker 1] Yeah. I use my shiny blue bike with a red stripe to save on gas.

[Speaker 2] I've an electric car.

[Speaker 1] Is it reliable? I'd be afraid it would lose charge too fast.

[Speaker 2] More charging stations are being installed lately

I do not like to exercise. I ride my motorcycle everywhere. My motorcycle is blue with a red stripe. I wear a helmet when I ride my motorcycle.

I have fair skin and brown eyes.

I am a veterinarian.

I am planning to move to California.
I am a doctor.
I have a lot of student loans to repay.
I have an electric car.

[Speaker 1] Have you had any luck with your applications to the California hospitals? Any interviews lined up?

[Speaker 2] No not yet and its not helping this loans disapear either. Hows the vet life treating you?

[Speaker 1] It's been really great.  We were very busy up until last month but things are starting to slow done and feel more normal now.  Hopefully I'll be able to make time for a vacation soon!  I'm thinking California.

[Speaker 2] Maybe ill finally move there by then and we can meet up! Do you plan on bringing your motorcycle? A lot of nice roads to ride on.

[Speaker 1] That would be just perfect if you were there by then! If not, it'll jsut give me an excuse to visit again :).  I'd love to do a motorcycle ride out west, maybe take Route 66 the whole way and stay in classic motels. When are you thinking of making the move?

[Speaker 2] Hopefully really soon. I would like to have the job lined up before commiting, but it seems i might have to make the move first.

[Speaker 1] That's a good point, I

[Speaker 2] At least when i drive cross country ill save on gas with my electric car, haha.

[Speaker 1] That will help immensely!! Every time I fill up my motorcyle, which is frequently, it hurts the old wallet a bit!  Anyway I know there are a ton of great hospitals for you to choose from in CA and I'm sure you'll find something in no time!

[Speaker 2] Thank you, i think so too. Just a bit frustrating, its a big change and i want to get it started!

[Speaker 1] I bet, well hang in there!  And if you need help moving,I can always hitch a trailer to the back of my motorcycle and help you out.  Any excuse for a roadtrip :)

[Speaker 2] I will keep that in mind. Did you get that new helmet to match the colors and stripe of your bike?

I have fair skin and brown eyes.

I am a veterinarian.

I am going to the vacation to California. I'd love to do a motorcycle ride the whole way and stay in classic motels.

I have a trailer.

I am planning to move to California.

I am a doctor.

I have a lot of student loans to repay.

I have an electric car.

I make  applications to the California hospitals.

[Speaker 1] Are you happy owning an electric vehicle?

[Speaker 2] Yes I love my EV. I never have to worry about gas or how much is costs or if it's available

[Speaker 1] I have always wondered how they work. Do you plan on switching your car anytime soon?

[Speaker 2] No, not at all. There are plenty of options for me to recharge and keep my vehicle powered so I don't think I should fix what isn't broke

[Speaker 1] I completely understand. What color is your car and is a small? Are all electric cars small?

[Speaker 2] No, they are not tiny cars at all, although some are but it's not because they are electric.

[Speaker 1] If I wanted one do you have any recommendations on which one I should get?

[Speaker 2] I love my Tesla.. It's large and I have not had any problems at all with it

[Speaker 1] I saw a video of a Tesla yesterday. They are absolutely amazing. What feature do you love the most?

[Speaker 2] I just love that it is electric, most other features are available in regular cars as well

[Speaker 1] I saw that you could watch tv on the screen. I was shocked to find that you could even watch youtube. That's also an awesome feature.

[Speaker 2] Yeah I don't really care about that stuff. I use my car to drive and not play around. People can do that stuff on their phones\

I have fair skin and brown eyes.

I am a veterinarian.

I have a trailer.

I like Teslas.

I am planning to move to California.

I am a doctor.

I have a lot of student loans to repay.

I have an electric car. My car is Large. I own a Tesla.

I love my EV.

[Speaker 1] I took a test drive of a Tesla

[Speaker 2] So cool! How did it handle?

[Speaker 1] Smooth as butta'! I thought about never returning it. In fact, I still have it...but I think I will take it back.

[Speaker 2] Good call. It's probably best to avoid trouble. You can always take my beast for a spin on the weekends.

[Speaker 1] I don't know. I bet one of the farmers I know would let me store it on their property for a bit while I decide.

[Speaker 2] Living life on the wild side. Respect. What would your clients say if they know how much of an outlaw you are?

[Speaker 1] Some would love it and some would leave, so I better choose my hideout wisely.

[Speaker 2] Oh you! You might just have to run from the law all the way to California!  Your life is kind of like an action movie.

[Speaker 1] Oh my goodness! You are right. I need to but my bike on the trailer and just go or it. I gave them a fake name when I took it. I don't know why. I swear this wasn't planned. But that means I can still be a vet in CA!!!

[Speaker 2] I have met some shady vets so I think this might actually be feasible. I'm starting to like this plan.

[Speaker 1] Are you on board? I could head to you first and help you pack. Then our Teslas can hit the road and start a whole new life!

[Speaker 2] I sure am! We could even start an outlaw YouTube channel.

I have fair skin and brown eyes.

I am a veterinarian.

I have a trailer.

I like Teslas. I test drove a car. I considered not returning the Tesla I drove. I used a fake name to test drive the Tesla. I own a bike.

I am planning to move to California.

I am a doctor.

I have a lot of student loans to repay.

I love my EV.

[Speaker 1] What's your favorite feature on your Tesla?

[Speaker 2] I love the detailed map on the giant ipad looking screen. What do you like the best about the Tesla?

[Speaker 1] That's mines too! The ipad looking screen really makes the whole thing looks much more technological and fancy! By the way do you drive to work?

[Speaker 2] Yes everyday, it is nice because in California we get to use the diamond passager lane so avoid the traffic if you have an EV. What part of California are you planning to visit?

[Speaker 1] I'm not sure yet, I'm currently looking online for good places to go. Do you have any suggestions?

[Speaker 2] San Diego, especially Coronado Island is the best. Going there next weekend for my birthday. The hotel del is great.

[Speaker 1] Oh wow happy early birthday! What else do you plan to do for your birthday? My birthday is in December so there are still months before it.

[Speaker 2] Thank you, planning on having a friends dinner when my gf and I get back from san diego. Happy half birthday lol. Do you ride for your birthday or is it too cold?

[Speaker 1] That sounds great! And nah it's too cold for me to ride, and I'm not the type of people who torture themselves to go outside in the winter, I'm such a hermit in the winter.

[Speaker 2] same here, that's why i live in california. That probably explains the fair skin lol. If you won the lotto where would you live?

[Speaker 1] Honestly if I win to lotto I might just stay in the same place but buy a better house and invest the rest of the money so I don't have to work anymore. But maybe I will move to Thailand.

[Speaker 2] Lots of motorcycles in Thailand, you will fit in great there, lol. Have you traveled there before?

[Speaker 1] Was your father able to fix the lights in your basement? Hopefully you've been able to get back to playing ping pong.

[Speaker 2] He hasn't fixed them yet, so I'm considering trying to do it myself. Any tips? Because I have no clue what I'm doing lol.

[Speaker 1] Hmm, maybe it's best to ask an expert on this sort of thing. I know electric guitars but I don't know electric, hah.

[Speaker 2] Electric guitars? I thought you were into classical! I'm just a fan of anything with some good bass.

[Speaker 1] Oh, I love all kind of music, but especially classical. Do you have a favorite producer?

[Speaker 2] I have such a difficult time choosing favorite things. I'm pretty sure the only favorite thing I've ever been 100% certain of is the color purple. It's been my favorite for as long as I can remember, but everything else is so complicated lol.

[Speaker 1] Purple is a great color, but you don't feel as strongly about chocolate? I'm a fellow chocolate lover. Definitely a favorite.

[Speaker 2] I do love chocolate, but who doesn't? lol. I want to try some new chocolates, do you have any recommendations?

[Speaker 1] I don't know the brand, but there's a great chocolate my church sells as a fundraiser every year. I wish I could remember...

[Speaker 2] I might just have to go to your church. It's been such a long time since I attended. How's everything been going for you there?

[Speaker 1] Oh, I love it! You know the music I like most, so it's a great environment; best of both worlds! What denomination are you?

[Speaker 1] so is that it, we definitely playing? is it game on? :-)

[Speaker 2] Yep. Can you come over this weekend? We can play some music and then hit the table.

[Speaker 1] that sounds like a plan do you fancy having a small wager on who will be the winner?

[Speaker 2] Well, whatever you want to lose... ha!  Hey, have you been practicing the electric guitar lately?

[Speaker 1] I have actually. I standing in awe at the genius of Jimi Hendrix. and Jimmy Page to be honest!

[Speaker 2] Fun.  I'd like to listen to you sometime if you don't mind. I bet you're pretty good.

[Speaker 1] I am ok I suppose. why don't I bring my guitar around when we get together and I'll play some music for you? You might need to provide the baseline though!

[Speaker 2] Sounds like a plan. Let's do it.

[Speaker 1] shall we get something to eat like takeout? what kind of food do you like?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, my dad got me into him. I have a dad.

[Speaker 1] I love classical music too. What instruments do you play?

[Speaker 2] I used to be super into drums, but now i've moved on to more bass. What about you?

[Speaker 1] I play electric guitar and I want to learn drums and piano. Could you teach me drums?

[Speaker 2] For sure, I'll order you a drum set. Does red sound okay?

[Speaker 1] My favourite! We could play games and gamble after if you wanted?

[Speaker 2] That sounds fantastic. We can start a band called "dark chocolate".

[Speaker 1] Sure why not. Do you ever play poker?

[Speaker 2] Just a little bit, I'm more into ping pong myself. Do you believe in the paranormal?

[Speaker 1] The drums have arrived today, thank you so much for ordering them for me.

[Speaker 2] Of course, I want to help out anyone that wants to learn the drums!

[Speaker 1] Who knows, maybe one day I will be as good as Hendrix haha.

[Speaker 2] Hendrix played the drums too? I did not know that!

[Speaker 1] He did indeed, most people don't know it.  The worst thing happened yesterday night, lost $100 in a bet!

[Speaker 2] Oh no, what did you bet on this time? I keep telling you to be more calculated with your bets!

[Speaker 1] It was a stupid bet, on who could eat the most chocolate in 30 minutes.

[Speaker 2] How did you lose?? You love chocolate!

[Speaker 1] well, the person who I betted would win lost! I adore chocolate, I should probably start eating less of it though. We should go for pizza sometime.

[Speaker 2] Oh silly me, I thought you bet on yourself to eat chocolate. You should have...you totally would have won! Yes! let's get some pizza. I haven't had a good cheese pizza in a minute

[Speaker 1] Neither have I, what toppings do you like most on your pizza?

[Speaker 2] If I have to have toppings I go for sausage and bacon, but they actually have to put bacon on there, not such a little bit that you can barely see it

[Speaker 2] Nope, when I was 16 I was probably shopping for watches and shoes.

[Speaker 1] Well I was not so privileged

[Speaker 2] I am so sorry to hear. That is a rough life.

[Speaker 1] It was. I am gonna cry

[Speaker 2] I have no pets. I'm a recording engineer. I have a studio.

[Speaker 1] That sounds interesting. I get in trouble a lot for not picking up my toys.

[Speaker 2] You should always pick up your toys.

[Speaker 1] If I picked up my toys, I could go play with my best friend next door more.

[Speaker 2] That's true. So there you go.

[Speaker 1] I really like playing with my dolls. I always take care of them.

[Speaker 2] Do you live with your mom and dad?

[Speaker 2] Sorry. I was painting my kayak. You sing or dance. I do both.

[Speaker 1] What do you do in your free time?

[Speaker 2] What is free time? My mom and dad were street walkers.

[Speaker 1] I personally give back by volunteering at the homeless shelter.

[Speaker 2] Great! My family lived in a shelter before. We learned to survive there.

[Speaker 1] What is a street walker? Does it mean homeless? Survival is key

[Speaker 2] They were sex workers. I read psychology journals sometimes. Do you?

[Speaker 1] Wow that's crazy, no wonder you are into psychology

[Speaker 2] Yes I know! I love kayaking to get away from everything. You kayak?

[Speaker 1] No I love to travel.

[Speaker 2] Wow that's great. I wish I could travel with my dog. You have dogs?

I volunteer at homeless shelter.

I love traveling.

I walk dogs as a job and I like reading.

I sing and also dance.

My mom and dad were street walkers. Me and my family used to live in the shelter. My parents were sex workers.

I also love kayaking.

[Speaker 1] Volunteering is keeping me busy and is quite stressful but I love feeling of being able to help someone

[Speaker 2] It sounds like it would be a worth while life.  How often do you get to volunteer?

[Speaker 1] I go at least once a week. More if I can, depending on my teaching and travel schedule. Were you able to finish painting your kayak?

[Speaker 2] I did.  I am letting it dry and cure well.  I plan on going down river next weekend.  You love traveling.  Have you tried taking on an outdoor trip like kayaking?

[Speaker 1] No, I haven't! Maybe next time I travel I'll look into it. Which river will you be kayaking on?

[Speaker 2] I am down south in Alabama right now.  I am actually kayaking several.  They have some smaller rivers that have great scenery.  I am excited.  Have you every traveled south?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I have! I love the South. I've never been to Alabama but I found Southeast Georgia and coastal South Carolina to be beautiful. Have you ever done a kayaking trip there?

[Speaker 2] I have not been to Georgia, but I have traveled to South Carolina several times and not just for kayaking.  Charleston is a beautiful city.  They have several great music venues too.  I bet you would love it.

[Speaker 1] I've been to Charleston and I did love it! We only got to hear a bit of live music but we had a great time. We stayed at the Francis Marion. What kind of music do you like to sing? Did you find any while you were in Charleston?

[Speaker 2] I travel with several musicians.  We usually stick to acoustic rock.  But we also love blues if the time calls for it.  What is your preference?

[Speaker 1] Being a piano teacher I do a lot of work with classical music, of course. But for live music I like folk, especially Celtic music. Have you ever gone to a Celtic show?

[Speaker 2] I have not.  A friend of mine I travel with loves it.  He plays it a lot when we are on break.  I might give it a shot one day.

I am piano teacher so I spend a lot of time playing music. I like classical and celtic folk music.

I volunteer at homeless shelter once a week or more.

I sing and also dance.

I also love kayaking. I have a kayak.

I am in Alabama. I have traveled to South Carolina several times, including Charleston.

I am a rock and blues musician.

I have not gone to a Celtic folk music show.

[Speaker 1] My volunteer work at the homeless shelter is going well, but the volunteering and teaching is keeping me very busy. I can't wait until I can travel again.

[Speaker 2] where would you like to go first?

[Speaker 1] I really want to travel around Europe. So many different countries and cultures within such a small space.

[Speaker 2] have you ever been overseas before?

[Speaker 1] I went backpacking around Thailand once for 6-months. it was like a real adventure. there are some parts of it that people never visit and it is almost undiscovered by the West.

[Speaker 2] that sounds facinatoing, do you speak the language there?

[Speaker 1] no way. apart from picking up a few simple words it's a very hard language to learn I think. In Europe though I think I've had a good go at speaking French.

[Speaker 2] I speak some french, and some german. It seems easier in german. when do you think you will be going to europe?

[Speaker 1] For the summer I think. but it is more expensive to travel in the summertime so I don't know really. I just want to hit the road again!

[Speaker 2] have you thought about taking a ship across rather than flying?

[Speaker 1] I have thought about it actually but I do get seasick.

[Speaker 2] deamamine helps, an it gets very exciting.  would you like to go together with me?

I volunteer at a homeless shelter once a week or more.

I love traveling. I have not tried kayaking. I have traveled to Georgia and South Carolina. I have been to Charleston, South Carolina. I went backpacking in Thailand for 6 months. I do not speak Thai. I can speak French. I might travel to Europe in the summertime.

I get seasick.

I sing and also dance.

I also love kayaking. I have a kayak.

I am a rock and blues musician.

I speak a little French and German.

[Speaker 1] I tried Kayaking for the first time yesterday. It was fun!

[Speaker 2] That's awesome! Did you enjoy it?

[Speaker 1] Yes! It was such an adventure. I am so sore now, though. My arms were not used to all that rowing. Have you read any books in French?

[Speaker 2] I'm really glad you enjoyed it. When I haven't been in a while it really makes my shoulders and upper arms hurt the next day. No, I've never tried to read a book in French. I don't think my French skills are good enough yet!

[Speaker 1] Oh, you should give it a try. Reading a book is a great way to improve your language skills. The little prince is a great book that is easy to read and is much better in  French.

[Speaker 2] I've heard that the Little Prince is meant to be a lovely book. And I guess as it's mainly aimed at children that the language isn't too complicated?

[Speaker 1] Yes. I'm not sure if it's really aimed at children, but it's simple enough that children can understand it. The nice thing is that is also complex enough that adults enjoy it too.

[Speaker 2] I like the kind of story which is relevant for adults and kids. Well, I'll certainly have a look at trying to read it in French then! Have you thought any more about your plans to visit Europe in summer?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I know I want to go to France (because I speak the language). I am not sure where else I would like to go, or if I just want to spend the whole time in one place.

[Speaker 2] I've only every been to Paris in France, though I've heard that the south of France is beautiful. And there are also the French Alps if you like mountains.

[Speaker 1] I think I would like to climb the mountains. Have you done any mountain climbing?

[Speaker 2] I've visited the Austrian Alps before, but we went up the mountains in cable cars because we had older family members with us. It would be awesome to climb a mountain though!

I love traveling. I have not tried kayaking. I have traveled to Georgia and South Carolina. I have been to Charleston, South Carolina. I went backpacking in Thailand for 6 months. I do not speak Thai. I can speak French. I am planning to go to France this summer.

I get seasick.

I went kayaking for the first time yesterday.

I sing and also dance.

I also love kayaking. I have a kayak.

I am a rock and blues musician.

I speak a little French and German. I am learning French.

I have been to France. I have been to Austria. I have not done any mountain climbing.

[Speaker 1] I just found a great new book in French that you might like to read.

[Speaker 2] Nice! What's the name of the book?

[Speaker 1] L'Ange de la Magie: L'Alchimie Spirituelle par les Rites du Soleil.  It's about self care and meditation.  It helped me with calming techniques.  I thought it may help you in the future and coming to terms with your past and using it for good.  Music is a wonderful way to help you through your feelings.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a solid recommendation. I love to learn multiple things at once so that book's next on my reading list. Do you ever listen to music when you're reading?

[Speaker 1] Of course!!  Usually when I'm reading, I like to listen to something soft and a little solemn like Adagio for Strings by S.L. Barber.  But if I am just in a foul mood, I'm rocking to some Dio.  What about you?

[Speaker 2] Dio is my go to for foul moods! I usually just put on some classic rock at a low volume for some ambience. What's your favorite Dio album?

[Speaker 1] Oh, that's a hard question.  How can I pick?  He's a rock God.  Holy Diver is gold, Last in Line is amazing!  I mean, even his Rainbow albums are priceless.  Could you pick one?

[Speaker 2] I actually have a flag of Holy Diver on the back of my door. It really is hard to choose just one. Rainbow was truly a magical time. Props to you for having such good taste in music.

[Speaker 1] Thank you, thank you.  You have a Holy Diver flag!!  I'm so jealous.  Did you ever get to see him in concert?  I wish I could have...he was rocking till his final days.

[Speaker 2] Only in my dreams, friend. We were born too late to see RJD in concert but his presence will light the halls of the rock underworld forever!

[Speaker 1] Truly agree.  I think it was amazing that he never warmed up.  He said, "You either got it, or you don't."  That man had it.  He had it all.  He will forever be missed.

[Speaker 2] His legend will live on in people like us. Did you ever listen to Ronnie James Dio & The Prophets? It's crazy to think about how much he grew as a singer.


My favorite toy as a child as my lite brite.

I was born in the early 80 s.

I also like old school hip hop.

I take dance lessons once a week.

I like playing basketball.
I have one older sister.
My mother is a dentist.
My favourite artist is travis scott.

My parents bought me everything I wanted when I was little.

I'm in my late thirties.

I enjoy oldies music.

I have gotten much better at salsa dancing.

I can shoot hoops.

I have a sibling who was born before me.

I get my obsession for clean teeth from my mom.

I love listening to the guy who got kylie jenner pregnant.

[Speaker 1] Hi how are you today?

[Speaker 2] Alright, just finished a game of baseball. What about you?

[Speaker 1] Nice! I just got home from dance lessons.

[Speaker 2] What kind of dance do you like?

[Speaker 1] Jazz. I also like hip hop, because I enjoy listening to the old school songs.

[Speaker 2] I like hip hop too! My favorite is travis scott

[Speaker 1] Nice, I grew up with hip hop in the eighties.

[Speaker 2] Did you enjoy the eighties in general or just the music?

[Speaker 1] I love the eighties. My all time favorite toy is lite brite.

[Speaker 2] I love the lite brite! My older sister used to have one but I swallowed a piece

[Speaker 1] That sounds scary! Did you have to have it removed?

[Speaker 2] I just waited it out, mom is just a dentist but she said it would be fine

[Speaker 1] Well kids will be kids right? Lol

[Speaker 2] Very true, everyone has an embarrassing story from childhood

I take dance lessons. I like to dance to jazz. I like hip hop dance. I enjoy old school songs.

I grew up in the eighties.

I like lite brite.

I play basketball.

I like hip hop. I like Travis Scott.

I love lite bite. I have an older sister.

My mom is a dentist.

[Speaker 1] I heard that travis Scott has a new song out, have you heard it yet?

[Speaker 2] Unfortunately I haven't yet, I was out of town so I haven't listened to much music lately :(

[Speaker 1] Aw that's too bad. That's nice that you went out of town though! Where did you explore?

[Speaker 2] My sister and I went to Fort Worth and did our yearly BBQ run, hit up some delicious eats for a few days

[Speaker 1] That sounds like a great time. I've never been but would be curious to. Do they have good places to dance out there?

[Speaker 2] Oh yes, there's a lot of those! I think you'd have a lot of fun! You're more than welcome to come along next trip we take

[Speaker 1] Yeah definitely let me know when it would be! What else are you up to nowadays. Have you been able to play basketball recently?

[Speaker 2] When the weather is cooperative, yes! We were supposed to have some time to play yesterday but the rain washed us out .

[Speaker 1] Yeah weather really hasn't been so great lately. Can't wait for a sunny day to come out.

[Speaker 2] Same here. I love spending time outdoors with my friends and sipping mimosas but we can't do that right now

[Speaker 1] Yeah, I would love a lite bite in some nice sun and warm weather so badly these days.

[Speaker 2] Let's get together and make that happen then!

I grew up in the eighties.

I like lite brite.

I have never been to Forth Worth.

I enjoy being outdoors in the sun.

I like hip hop. I like Travis Scott.

My mom is a dentist.

I have been out of town recently. My sister and I went to Fort Worth for a BBQ. We have BBQs in Forth Worth annually.

I play basketball. I like being outdoors. I like hanging out with friends. I like mimosas.

[Speaker 1] What is the best champagne to use for mimosas?

[Speaker 2] That's a great question, it doesn't matter too much, just whatever is cheapest.

[Speaker 1] Oh really, I would of thought the more expensive the champagne the better taste it would have. But if it tastes just as good with cheap champagne then that's even better! Do you and your friends love mimosas or is it just you? Lots of girls love Gin now don't they?

[Speaker 2] Who doesn't love mimosas?! Expensive champagne is better but it only makes a small difference. Gin is a good option too! Personally, I save mimosas for brunches and gin for nights out.

[Speaker 1] Well they do taste great, especially when the weathers nice, being able to enjoy brunch in the sun makes all the difference sometimes. It's always great to catch up with some friends after a long time of not seeing each other, there's always some gossip to chat about.

[Speaker 2] And there's so much to catch up on these days! Nothing like a good brunch or BBQ to bring everyone together again

[Speaker 1] Exactly. BBQ's are great to bring family members together as well, listening to some great music outdoors with a few drinks and some amazing food. How was your annual BBQ? Was it nice weather?

[Speaker 2] Weather was excellent! The BBQ was really great. What are your favorite things to do with friends?

I grew up in the eighties.

I like lite brite.

I have never been to Forth Worth.

I enjoy being outdoors in the sun.

I enjoy listening to music, especially outdoors.

I like hip hop. I like Travis Scott.

My mom is a dentist.

I don't have a champagne preference. I am fond of mimosas but I prefer to drink them at brunch. I prefer to drink gin in the evenings. I enjoy going to brunch and bbqs.

[Speaker 1] I did a little taste test with my roommate and compared expensive champagne versus cheap and you were right! We couldn't tell the difference at all.

[Speaker 2] That's especially true when you drink them in mimosas! Did you make a mixed drink with the champagne?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I don't like orange juice so I mixed it with cranberry juice. It was delicious.

[Speaker 2] That sounds delicious! I will have to try that myself. Were you celebrating anything in particular? Or just enjoyng your weekend?

[Speaker 1] Nothing special, just a quiet night in and I wanted to try something new. What was the last new thing you tried?

[Speaker 2] Fair enough. I haven't tried anything new recently, but was considering going kyaking this upcoming weekend.

[Speaker 1] That sounds exciting! I love being outdoors but I'm not a very good swimmer so kayaking may not be for me.

[Speaker 2] That definitely might be a hinderance. What do you like to do out-of-doors?

I grew up in the eighties.

I like lite brite.

I have never been to Forth Worth.

I enjoy being outdoors in the sun.

I drink alcohol. I don't know a lot about different types of champagne. I can't tell the difference between expensive and cheap champagne.

I have a roommate.

I don't like orange juice. I like cranberry juice.

I'm not a good swimmer.

I like hip hop. I like Travis Scott.

My mom is a dentist.

I don't have a champagne preference. I can't tell the difference between expensive and cheap champagne. I am fond of mimosas but I prefer to drink them at brunch. I prefer to drink gin in the evenings. I enjoy going to brunch and bbqs.

I kayak.

[Speaker 1] Tell me more about kayaking. How hard is it to learn? Where do you go most often when you kayak?

[Speaker 2] There's a steep-ish learning curve to it, but it's not too bad. I just go to Southlake and kayak there.

[Speaker 1] That's cool. Do you think it would matter that I'm not a strong swimmer if I wanted to learn?

[Speaker 2] I think it's fine, as long as you wear a life jacket. Having strong swimming skills would be an advantage, however.

[Speaker 1] Have you ever been on any crazy rapids and gotten thrown in the water?

[Speaker 2] Not really. That's my next step. I want to make sure I develop strong basic kayaking skills before I plunge into something like that.

[Speaker 1] Oh ok, that's cool. So did you just start kayaking?

[Speaker 2] I've been doing it for about a year, but I don't do it often (e.g. I only kayak every weekend or so).

[Speaker 1] Gotcha. Well I am always looking for new outdoor activities so  maybe I should try it out! Could we go together since you aren't real advanced yet?

[Speaker 2] We definitely can! You'll have to visit Fort Worth first, though!

[Speaker 1] well ok! Is there any place to kayak there?

[Speaker 2] Well, there's Southlake, which is a suburb midway between Fort Worth and Dallas. It's about 30 minutes from downtown Fort Worth by drive.


Charity work gives me fulfillment.

[Speaker 2] Cool. I would love to do that. Not many soup kitchens here in canada.

[Speaker 1] In my free time I watch war documentaries

[Speaker 2] That's great, my grandfather served in world war ii

[Speaker 1] My family didn't make a lot of money growing up

[Speaker 2] Mine either. I had to drop out of high school to help support the family.

[Speaker 1] I retired a year ago as a gym teacher

[Speaker 2] Great. Do you cook a lot, with all your free time?

[Speaker 1] I like to go fishing with friends

[Speaker 2] I'd love to go fishing but I know little about the sport.

[Speaker 1] It is a very exciting time

[Speaker 2] I hope to try fishing one day.

[Speaker 1] You should come fishing with me

[Speaker 2] I'd love to do that.

[Speaker 2] I am 56 years old and amazing. I am female and living it up.

[Speaker 1] I am a 61 year old gym teacher

[Speaker 2] Do you like the world. I am trying to take it over.

[Speaker 1] It is a hard world, in my childhood we were poor, now I volunteer

[Speaker 2] I paint in my free time because my family will not visit.

[Speaker 1] That is sad. In my free time I enjoy war documentaries.

[Speaker 2] I think the mona lisa is cool art

[Speaker 1] Yes it is nice. What is your favorite food? Mine is cheeseburgers.

[Speaker 2] I clean houses all day. People can be dirty.

[Speaker 1] So true, being a gym teacher I can attest to how people can and be dirty.

[Speaker 2] I like raw steak and eggs. Bring on the bacon.

[Speaker 1] Cheeseburgers are where it is at for me. I love bacon on my burgers though.

[Speaker 2] When I take over the world I'll grant bacon to everyone

[Speaker 1] Awesome. Everyone at my soap kitchen would love to have bacon, not often on the menu.

[Speaker 1] I had the worse day at work yesterday, a lot of the kids got sick and you wouldn't believe what happened.

[Speaker 2] Sorry about your day. Tell me what happened?

[Speaker 1] There was a cold going around and I felt so bad for the sick kids.

[Speaker 2] Sorry dear, but it's beyond your power to do anything, you can only help make them comfortable

[Speaker 1] You're right. That is very good advice. Do you have any other life advice for me?

[Speaker 2] haha, just trying to make you feel better. Do you still volunteer?

[Speaker 1] Yes I still volunteer. I am a social worker and help underprivileged kids.

[Speaker 2] That's great, was thinking of joining, any advice?

[Speaker 1] You have to have a lot of empathy. These kids are in tough times.

[Speaker 2] I do have empathy, can't say a lot, but I know I love kids a lot

[Speaker 1] Then you would be a perfect fit!

[Speaker 2] You think so? I just hope I don't get tired of it

[Speaker 1] It would be so engaging if you show me your paintings!

[Speaker 2] I would love to! I am pretty lonely these days so it would be nice to have someone come to visit me.

[Speaker 1] Do you have any paintings that you have done recently?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I try to paint a least a little bit every day. I have set up a studio in my spare bedroom, and sometimes I even try to go outside and paint the beauty that I see in nature.

[Speaker 1] Thats great! I love nature paintings.  Maybe I could come over and we could grill out some cheeseburgers.

[Speaker 2] That sounds great! I can also cook up some bacon for the burgers and make a salad with bacon bits in it...of course! I have a nice fire pit we can sit around.

[Speaker 1] Yes bring on the bacon!  Nights are a little cool these days so a fire pit sounds good

[Speaker 2] Do you play any instruments? I find it is nice to have a little sing song session around the fire with my guitar.

[Speaker 1] I can play the tamborine but thats about it, and you certainly don't want to hear me sing!!

[Speaker 2] It's just for fun! I know some great campfire songs and we can even roast marshmallows and make s'mores!

[Speaker 1] I love smores!  Do you like your marshmallows burned or just toasted?

[Speaker 2] I like them to be almost burnt to a crisp! How do you like yours?

I am 61. I am a gym teacher.

I was poor as a child. I volunteer.

I like war documentaries.

I like cheeseburgers. I love bacon. I like s'mores. I have a soap kitchen.

I sing and play guitar.

[Speaker 1] I got plenty of hamburgers and bacon and marshmallows for our campfire sing-along!

[Speaker 2] Yay I'm excited! Haven't had a nice gathering for a long time, the family's always so busy

[Speaker 1] Do you like smores? We could make some at the camp!

[Speaker 2] I don't like smores...I LOVE them! haha. Are you good at grilling burgers too? I am only good at eating them lol

[Speaker 1] You'd be crazy not to love smores lol! I love burgers and bacon so we could do both. Do you enjoy volunteering with kids? I find it so rewarding to see their happy faces.

[Speaker 2] It's definitely something I'd want to do, I'm thinking of volunteering at the art gallery to teach kids how to paint

[Speaker 1] Aww that sounds so much fun. Could I help? I have a lot of free time since retiring.

[Speaker 2] Yah for sure, I know you enjoy painting landscape, we can even do a painting class outside

[Speaker 1] I suck at painting but I'd like to learn. What else do you do in your free time?

[Speaker 2] I like playing my guitar, are you still playing your tambourine?

[Speaker 1] Yeah I'm thinking of starting a folk band.

[Speaker 2] Ouu that's exciting. You'll be the coolest gym teacher there is! Coah with a band

I am 61. I am a gym teacher.

I was poor as a child. v

I like war documentaries.

I enjoy landscape paintings. I want to learn how to paint.

I am a bad singer. I can play a tambourine. I do not play any other instruments. I might start a folk band.

I'm going camping. I bought food for the trip.

I'm retired.

I am 56. I am a female.

I like raw steaks. I like eggs.

I sing and play guitar.

I haven't been on vacation in a long time.

I love smores. I'm not good at grilling.

I want to volunteer at an art gallery.

I play the guitar.

[Speaker 1] You should bring your guitar to the camp ground.

[Speaker 2] Yeah that's what I'm thinking, it'll be so peaceful to play it by the bonfire in the camp!

[Speaker 1] Certainly! I'll be sure to bring extra smore materials for when you play. I'm sure the kdis will love it.

[Speaker 2] Yeah of course! I'm also thinking of bringing some hot dogs and corns to grill them even though I'm not so good at grilling. Do you have any other recommendation?

[Speaker 1] Cheeseburgers would be great! And don't worry about grilling, I can help you out with it,

[Speaker 2] Do you grill often? I'm just so worried that my clothes will catch on fire and I'll start a whole forest fire!

[Speaker 1] I grill tons. It's nice to switch things up at the soup kitchen during the summer.

[Speaker 2] What do you usually grill? Cheeseburgers?

[Speaker 1] Yeah, they're my favorite, but I also enjoy cooking steak and such. The kids really enjoy hot dogs, so I've gotten pretty good at that too

[Speaker 2] That's great the kids enjoy it! And how are things going with the kids by the way? Have their illness gotten better?

[Speaker 1] We're taking things a day at a time, but thankfully everyone seems to be doing a little better.

[Speaker 2] That is really great to hear! Hopefully you can get more rest since I know working with kids can be hard at times. Maybe when you're free, we can paint together sometimes!

[Speaker 1] Me too! I am getting in spring. You married?

[Speaker 2] No! I am actually a retired gym teacher but not married

[Speaker 1] Oh okay. You know verna jean? She was a gym teacher too. You sing?

[Speaker 2] Mainly in the shower lol! I like to volunteer at soup kitchens! You?

[Speaker 1] No I do not volunteer anywhere. My friends and I eat out.

[Speaker 2] My family was poor but now that I am older I can eat out as well!

[Speaker 1] My friend verna jean like to eat out too but now she dead.

[Speaker 2] Oh that is really sad! I am sorry

[Speaker 1] I am sorry your family had to eat at soup kitchens. Sounds rough.

[Speaker 2] That's okay! That's why I volunteer now!

[Speaker 1] Good! I'm marrying a man with a big heart in the spring.

[Speaker 2] That is great! I bet it will be a beautiful wedding

My name is Tracy. I am 24 years old. I look like Taylor Swift.

I like to eat out with my friends.

My friend Verna Jean passed away.

I love cheeseburgers. I love watching war documentaries.

I like to volunteer at soup kitchens.

I grew up poor.

[Speaker 1] I have been working hard at wedding planning these last few days.

[Speaker 2] Oh, that sounds like a dream! How is it going for you? Will you have everything ready for Spring?

[Speaker 1] This is a very complicated process planning a wedding but it is so exciting! Maybe we will cook out cheeseburgers at the reception if the spring rain holds off.

[Speaker 2] Oh, you know you're speaking my language! It's just important to balance the high calories with plenty of physical exercise.

[Speaker 1] My friend Verna that just passed away was exercising when she passed. Her heart was pressed to far while running a marathon.

[Speaker 2] I'm sorry to hear that, and sorry for your loss. It can be just as important to take it easy when needed.

[Speaker 1] So much unpredictability in life. She was good food eater and cheeseburgers were off limits however she will not know the joy of foods that like that.

[Speaker 2] I couldn't give them up if I tried. You?

[Speaker 1] Same here. I try to workout a couple days a week to offset the indulgence. How do you exercise?

[Speaker 2] I like to go back to the basics. Plenty of cardio followed by sports! Do you have a routine?

[Speaker 1] Yes, hand weights for upper body and treadmill for cardio. I use a Fit Bit to track my progress do you?

[Speaker 2] Those are awesome! I have a more generic version. I try to be thrifty.

I like to eat out with my friends.

My friend Verna Jean passed away. Her heart failed while exercising.

I workout a few days a week. I do weights and cardio. I use a Fitbit.

I like to volunteer at soup kitchens.

I grew up poor.

I like cardio and sports. I have a generic fitbit.  I try to be thrifty.

[Speaker 1] You mentioned being thrifty.  As I continue planning this wedding costs are skyrocketing.  Do you have any ideas for how I could save some money?

[Speaker 2] I have seem but I don't know if you can be interested.

[Speaker 1] I'm very interested. I would love to hear about what I could do to save money for my wedding.

[Speaker 2] First it will be good that you avoid unnecessary expenditure and save that money

[Speaker 1] That's a great first step. I like spending money but haven't bought anything yet. Are you interesting in getting married?

[Speaker 2] Yeah some time later thou I have no idea how to go about it can you help?

[Speaker 1] I would be happy to give you some pointers on how to find someone you can marry. You should start saving money now.

[Speaker 2] Thanks for the tip is there anything else

[Speaker 1] I would start by trying some dating apps. You'll be able to talk to other people who want to get married as well.

[Speaker 2] well i would like to know how I can pick somebody interested

[Speaker 1] I would start by trying to find someone who also likes cheeseburgers. What other things would you look for?

[Speaker 2] I like cheese burgers and cakes do you have kids

I like to eat out with my friends.

I am a retired gym teacher. I am not married. I would like to get married someday.

I like to volunteer at soup kitchens.

I grew up poor.

I like cardio and sports. I have a generic fitbit. I am thrifty.

I like cheese burgers and cakes.

[Speaker 1] I managed to find a reasonably priced venue for the wedding.

[Speaker 2] Thats awesome. Where is it at?

[Speaker 1] It's only about 45 minutes from where we live, and it's got beautiful gardens and a large converted barn for the reception. I'm so excited!! I should start thinking about sending out invites soon. Have you been to any weddings over the past couple of years?

[Speaker 2] Oh yes. I fall into that old saying Always a bridesmaid, never a bride. LOL. My favorite one I was in was in a venue like yours. It was the least expensive one as well I helped the bride do alot of DIY with decorations and flowers.

[Speaker 1] I am sure you'll be the bride one day (if you want to be, that is!). Often the least expensive weddings feel a lot more personal don't they, as there's a bit of DIY going on. That's amazing you were able to help with the decorations and flowers, I need to start thinking about those too!

[Speaker 2] One day ( knocks on wood).  I concur completely, they feel more like a real family celebration than a big event. With doing a bit of DIY with decorations, flowers and little wedding favours. I believe they saved around 1500$.

[Speaker 1] Wow that's quite a saving, that's great. What did they have for favours, out of interest? I keep changing my mind about what I want!

[Speaker 2] Since it was in a converted barn for the reception they kept with a chic western theme had plastic little pails filled with M&Ms in the wedding colours and a ribbon tied on it that simple said their names and date.

[Speaker 1] That's adorable! So simple and yet both delicious and personalised. I do think something edible is a very good idea, thank you! I remember you saying you love cheeseburgers; would you want them to be part of your wedding catering?

[Speaker 2] You are welcome. Well because Im very thrifty, I would probably hire a mobile BBQ to do the main catering. That way they cook right there and there wont be any wasted food and it will be hot and fresh.

[Speaker 1] That's a great idea. Hot fresh food off the BBQ is making me hungry even just thinking about it. You sound like you could go into wedding planning - have you ever considered it?

[Speaker 2] No I never thought it of it really. Im just happy to help. If you need me Im at your disposal.

I am getting married to a man in the spring. I am planning a wedding in the spring. I would like to save money planning this wedding. I'm cost-conscious.

I like to eat out with my friends.

I like less-expensive, personalized weddings. I keep changing my mind about what I want for the wedding. I want food at my reception.

I love watching war documentaries.

I like to volunteer at soup kitchens.

I grew up poor. I enjoy helping others.

I like cheese burgers and cakes.

I know how to do-it-yourself. I like fresh food. I don't like to waste food.

[Speaker 1] Are there any guys out there you're interested in as a prospective husband?

[Speaker 2] Nope. I just want to get married, nobody specific yet. I'm just tired of doing everything myself! hahaha

[Speaker 1] You sound like a great candidate for an arranged marriage, ha! So you never dated anyone in the past who you thought would make a good husband?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, until they proved me wrong!

[Speaker 1] That does seem to happen from time to time. Better that you discovered it before getting married. Have you tried online dating?

[Speaker 2] Nope, I probably should try that. Good idea!

[Speaker 1] A few of my friends have gotten married to partners they met online. So far, so good. I can help you set up a profile if you would like. Then pretty soon, you can be wedding planning too!

[Speaker 2] That's inspiring! I guess the wedding is a cool part of getting married that I didn't really think much about.

[Speaker 1] It can be fun, but also overwhelming. It sounds like you are very creative though, and I bet you could do most, if not all, the planning and prep work yourself! That would save you a ton of money and probably make your future spouse very happy haha. But other than that, I was meaning to ask you if you wanted to join a fitbit challenge with me. So that we can both stay motivated with our steps

[Speaker 2] Definitely! It's a great way to inspire myself to push harder, especially if I'm trying to compete! I usually get 17,000 steps a day.

[Speaker 1] 17000! That is so many! I dont think there is any way I could beat you, but at least I could stay motivated to do my best. I aim for 10,000. Maybe I will take up running to try and beat you

[Speaker 2] 10,000 is the recommended average. It greatly reduces the odds of getting heart disease and many other preventable illnesses. There's a big campaign on motivating people to get 10,000. I only get 17,000 because my life is constant movement, and then there's a 3 mile jog and a lot of outdoor playing.


I spend my day talking to people.

My spouse has an extreme shopping habit.

I am a middle aged man.

I'm so unhappy in my marriage.

I mow the lawn.

I love competing in 4 h contests.

My dad grows crops and tends to animals.

I need background noise when I work.

[Speaker 1] Hi how are you I am a car salesman are you looking to buy a car soon

[Speaker 2] Hi! No, maybe a new tractor for the farm.

[Speaker 1] I want a farm but I an broke due to my money spending wife

[Speaker 2] Lol. The horses are my favorite

[Speaker 1] Mine to maybe after my divorce I can buy two horses

[Speaker 2] Ditch one thing and get two others. Haha

[Speaker 1] The food was great I want to be a librarian.

[Speaker 2] You should reach for that goal! I love food! I like cooking but I can't lol.

[Speaker 2] Yum!! What do you do for work?

[Speaker 1] Cool that is good because times are so hard.

[Speaker 2] They really are. Well its been a pleasure chatting with you, have a good night.


My mother is very traditional while I prefer to be more free spirited.

My favorite music genre is death metal.

I'm studying to be a computer programmer.

My family and I are from india.

I am a swim coach at my local pool.

I have a children and a dogs.

I work in it and have been at the same company for 15 years.

I am a male.

I enjoy american sports.

I am a hippie but my mom isn't.
I listen to punk.
I'm a student.
I'm not from the us.
I love being in the water.

My home has kids and animals in it.

I'm a loyal employee.

I am a man.

I am a football, baseball and basketball fan.

[Speaker 1] My family likes to live in the past. Especially my mother.

[Speaker 2] That is interesting. I'm rather boring I've worked in it for 15 years

[Speaker 1] Great. I am going to school for computer programming. Do you like it?

[Speaker 2] It is a good subject to study. You have to update your skills throughout your career though.

[Speaker 1] Were you born here? We are from india. I love it here.

[Speaker 2] Yes, I am an all american male, who enjoys sports. Do you miss india?

[Speaker 1] Some things. People are very poor there. But some things are beautiful.

[Speaker 2] Perhaps I will be able to visit one day, once my child is grown.

[Speaker 1] I learned to swim in the ocean. I coach here at the pool.

[Speaker 2] That is great! I take my dogs to the beach every morning.

[Speaker 1] With your child? How old is he or she? In school?

[Speaker 2] He's 4, he will go to school next year. He also loves the ocean.

[Speaker 1] India is not interesting for children. Only for adults.

[Speaker 2] Why is that? Kids can find interesting things no matter where they are.

[Speaker 1] Poverty is everywhere. Some people have no money for clothes.

[Speaker 2] That is sad, I wish I could adopt children who need a good home.

[Speaker 1] For some reason the children from there are very intelligent.

[Speaker 2] I'm sure they're. Kids who have difficult lives, learn very quickly.

I have a mother.

I am from India. There are things I miss about India.

I am a swim coach at the pool.

I am a man born in America. I enjoy sports.

I have dogs. I take my dogs to the beach every morning.

My son is four years old.

[Speaker 1] What kind of things do you like to do with your son?

[Speaker 2] We play with his toys, I'm trying to get him into football but he's a bit young yet. We also go to the beach together, he loves the sand! Do you live near any beaches?

[Speaker 1] Aw, the beach is great! One of my favorite places to be. I could help teach swimming!

[Speaker 2] Yeah, although I imagine swimming in the ocean is very different from in the pool. I don't go to the pool a lot, I mainly swim in the ocean near my house.

[Speaker 1] Oh, it's definitely quite a bit different. Good to know the basics, though. My mother loves the swimming pool to do her exercises, so I'm always happy to be there.

[Speaker 2] Did your mother move away from India with you? I'm glad you both have an activity you can enjoy together, I hope to have that with my son.

[Speaker 1] Yes, she did. I was originally going to return to India after getting my degree, but I've fallen in love with this place and encouraged my family to come with me. My mother absolutely loves it. Of course, we still miss many things about India but it's still nice. I'm sure you'll find plenty of activities to bond with your son! Other than sports, what do you think you'll get him interested in?

[Speaker 2] I'm hoping he also grows up to love animals like I do, he loves our dogs so I think we're off to a good start! I'm hoping he enjoys school as well, I want him to be able to get a good job when he's older.

[Speaker 1] It's easy to teach children to love animals when you love them yourself. Just keep being that example to him and he'll grow into a great man. Education is so important! There are many different paths to take in life, but no matter which one we take we should always be learning along the way.

[Speaker 2] You are very inciteful! How are your computer programming studies going, are you enjoying learning this field still?

[Speaker 1] It's very exciting work to me! I enjoy very technical fields and it has been the perfect challenge. Have you considered studying anything new or are you quite happy in your current field?

[Speaker 2] I'm glad you are still enjoying it, I'm sure you're going to go really far in this field, best of luck to you (not that you need it)! I'm quite happy in my field, I also had to do a lot of studying to get here so I'm happy to keep going for now!

I am going to school for computer programming. I enjoy computer programming because its exciting.

I am a swim coach at the pool.

My mom likes the pool for exercise.

Mother moved from India with me.  She misses some things but loves it here.

I've worked in my field for fifteen years. I'm happy in my current field of work.

My son is four years old. I want my son to like football.  I go to the beach with my son. I want to have an activity both my son and I enjoy together.

I live near the ocean.

I want my son to love animals like I do.  My son loves dogs.  I want my son to like school.

[Speaker 1] I just had a space open up in the swim class I teach.  Are you interested in signing your son up to learn from me?

[Speaker 2] I'm not. I used to swim competitively for school.

[Speaker 1] That's cool! What made you stop?

[Speaker 2] When i started college I was too busy to stay in the best shape possible for the sport

[Speaker 1] That's a good thing to do, what do you do to stay in shape now?

[Speaker 2] I hike when I have the time

[Speaker 1] That's always fun, do you bring your doggies?

[Speaker 2] I dont, im afriad that a coyote will get them.

[Speaker 1] Aw, they would love to join you! What about your son?

[Speaker 2] My son is too young to be able to handle the trails unfortunately. I do have a work friend that goes with me from time to time.

[Speaker 1] Fun stuff, how are you doggies doing with the son? I'm guessing they've been getting along swimingly!

[Speaker 2] Definitely, they keep him entertained and they also keep him safe while were distracted.

I am a swim coach at the pool.

My mom likes the pool for exercise.

I live near the ocean.

I used to swim competitively. I went to college. I hike.

[Speaker 1] Did you enjoy you time at the beach with your son and dogs?

[Speaker 2] Yes we had a lovely time thank you. It was so windy and rainy here last week, but we managed to choose the perfect time to go when then sun was out and the breeze wasn't too strong! Do you live near a beach?

[Speaker 1] Yeah, but one with hot sun but cold ocean. So different from my native India which at least has warm water you can lounge in for an hour. But beach volleyball is cool

[Speaker 2] Ah yes, I hadn't thought about the fact that India would have warm water in its oceans. I've never actually played beach volleyball before but I want to try! Do you play it?

[Speaker 1] Yeah I tried it for a while, but my gangly arms failed me. Do love swimming though.

[Speaker 2] Haha! I'm sure you don't have gangly arms. Did you just play for fun or did you play in competitions? I enjoy swimming too, though I haven't been in ages.

[Speaker 1] I played for fun, but swam in competitions (wasn't that good, got up to county level backstroke champ). Where do you hike?

[Speaker 2] About an hour's drive away there is a hilly area with a massive forest. It's great for hiking in summer because the trees allow you to walk in shade rather than scorching sun. Do you hike at all?

[Speaker 1] I think I hiked a bit in the state parks around me and love the massive redwoods. I ought to take my mom out from India just to see them.

[Speaker 2] I've never seen the redwoods, but it's on my list of things to do over the next few years. I'd love to go there will my son. Is there a particular time of year you would recommend visiting?

[Speaker 1] Sorry...my mom is already with me here (not in India) but still she hasn't seen them. I can't recommend a time; I only go in the summer, when my college lets me out.

[Speaker 2] Ah yea of course I forgot you'd have to fit it around college. Well, I hope you're able to take your mom to them soon!

I am a swim coach at the pool. I love swimming. I have swam in competitions. I was a county-level swimming backstroke champ.

My mom likes the pool for exercise.

I live near the beach. I have tried volley ball.

I hike in the state parks around me. I love massive redwoods. I want to take my mom from India to see redwoods. My mom is living here. I go to the redwoods in the summer.

I live near the ocean.

I want to try volleyball.

I enjoy swimming, but I haven't swam in a while.

[Speaker 1] Have you ever taken your dogs for a hike?

[Speaker 2] Not yet, but I would like to. Maybe I can find a state park nearby. When do you think you might get to take your mon to see the redwoods?

[Speaker 1] I am not sure yet, school has been really busy at the moment. How is your son getting on these days?

[Speaker 2] He's doing well. I'm encouraging him to try to read more books on science or technology. I think he might be interested in that.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, that'll help him out in the future. I was thinking, would you like me to help you brush up on your swimming skills, I know it has been a while

[Speaker 2] Yes, that would be great. Maybe I could take my son along and you could talk to him about computer sciences as a field to pursue.

[Speaker 1] gladly, you could bring the dogs along too if you want.

[Speaker 2] Sure. I was wondering, what do you miss the most about your homeland? Did you live in an urban or quiet neighborhood?

[Speaker 1] I miss the food and the people, I should probably go back there to visit. We lived in the suburbs. Have you been out of America before?

[Speaker 2] Yes, but only for a very short time. I've been to Tijuana for a day many years ago. We brought back a nice blanket and some carved trinkets.

[Speaker 1] That sounds nice, do you think you'll go on vacation again?

[Speaker 2] Yes, we try to go once a year. Not too long ago we went to California to Muir Woods National Monument. I have a picture of my son inside the hollowed out tree.

[Speaker 2] Cool. Sounds like a fun job. Do you like it?

[Speaker 1] Yes I love dogs, 3 of my own.. What do you do?

[Speaker 2] I will try, which color do you hate the most?

[Speaker 1] I like all colors really? Do you hate one? Do you use a lot of technology?

[Speaker 2] The color I hate the most is orange and I use some technology.

[Speaker 1] I don't even own a smartphone. Maybe I should try it out.

[Speaker 2] A smartphone is good but being on it 24 7 is terrible for your eyesight.

I am now cancer free.
I'm retired. I have grandchildren.
I like all colors.
I don't own a smartphone.

I dance. I work in a bookstore. I studied Chemistry.

I hate the color orange. I use some technology.

[Speaker 1] What kind of dancing do you do?

[Speaker 2] I do salsa dancing and ballet.

[Speaker 1] How quickly did you learn the dances?

[Speaker 2] They were easy to learn, it took me about 2 months.

[Speaker 1] Do you prefer salsa or ballet? which is your favorite?

[Speaker 2] I prefer salsa because it is more fun.

[Speaker 1] Do you think it's a dance that a Grandfather can learn?

[Speaker 2] Yes definitely! Anyone can learn it.

[Speaker 1] I feel like i would need to have some rhythm to do salsa.

[Speaker 2] Don't worry about it. It will come to you!

[Speaker 1] How often do you dance?

[Speaker 2] I dance all the time.

I hate the color orange.

I do salsa dancing and ballet. It took me two months to learn to dance. I Prefers salsa to ballet. I dance all the time.

[Speaker 1] Guess what?! I finally gave in and got a smartphone.

[Speaker 2] Heck Yeah! You'll love it, it might take some time getting used to though. Do you operate with tech like smartphones and computers well?

[Speaker 1] Well I have never had a smartphone or been the best with technology, so it's going to be a new experience for me but I am certainly up to the challenge. I'm going to get my grandchildren to set it up for me.

[Speaker 2] How old are your Grandchildren? My husband and i have a kid and he's crazy smart with that kind of stuff

[Speaker 1] Well there are three, Andew, Jason and Lucy. Andrew is 8, Jason is 13 and Lucy is 18. I swear kids are amazing with technology nowadays, they can spend hours on their phones. I remember when I was little, we didn't have technology to keep us entertained, we had a ball to kick about and it would entertain us for hours on end. How old is your boy? He seems very intelligent.

[Speaker 2] My boy is 12. It's crazy how much more advanced schools are nowadays, He's already learning Algebra. Who's the mother of you Grandchildren?

[Speaker 1] Oh 12 is a lovely age, I bet your boy would get on well with our Jason. I know, schools are really improving their quality and level of education nowadays, they have so many resources it's brilliant. My daughter Sophie is the mother, she is doing so well with the kids whilst working full time. Her partner isn't so active with the children so they often visit when she's busy with work, for me to take care of them. Do you plan on having more kids?

[Speaker 2] Me and my husband work a lot so i doubt we could handle another child very well, so well just focus on our one, Levi. Does her partner work a lot or are they just distant?

[Speaker 1] Yes that's a good decision to make, I can tell you from experience it's not the best decision to have too many children and too little time. Our Sophie unfortunately struggles with that. Well he was active at the start of the children's lives and worked part time to help with the bills but unfortunately something changed in him, he just left one day without explanation so Sophie had to get another job to pay for her bills.

[Speaker 2] Oh that's horrible! Why in the world are people like that, I hate that!

[Speaker 1] I know, some people are just a waste of time! I can understand children are very challenging at times however you would think after the first two kids, you'd realize if you cannot take care of them. You said you love dancing, does Levi ever partake? It would be lovely if he enjoyed Salsa too.

[Speaker 2] Haha no, he gets weirded out when me and my husband dance together. Levi is a little bit of recluse in his room, although he's a smart young boy. Does your youngest grandchild have a smartphone?

I am now cancer free. I'm retired.

I like all colors.

I am not good with technology.

I have three grandchildren. Andrew is 8. Jason is 13. Lucy is 18. They are good with technology.

I hate the color orange.

I am married and have a kid. My son is 12. Me and my husband work a lot.

I like dancing with may husband.

[Speaker 1] How did your sons algebra lesson go in school today?

[Speaker 2] He seemed like he enjoyed it actually! We'll see when it comes to test time how it goes for him! How's your daughter been doing recently?

[Speaker 1] she's been really busy.  She's really stressed out and hasn't had much time for herself.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, that's understandable with everything going on. I hope she's not keeping herself busy to avoid the emotions though. Have you been able to spend time with the grandchildren to help her get a break or is she not having it? haha.

[Speaker 1] I've been spending way too much time with them and now I'm feeling just as crazy as she is haha

[Speaker 2] haha! I know that feeling. Maybe we can all get together. I think my son would enjoy hanging out with Jason and Andrew. Lucy is more than welcome too but I think she'd get bored hanging out with the boys so no pressure there!

[Speaker 1] that would be awesome! That would be a much needed break.

[Speaker 2] We have a pool in the backyard the kids can hang out in. Lucy's more than welcome to bring a friend if that would make her more comfortable. What other activities could we do to keep them busy and give us a break? haha

[Speaker 1] Honestly they all love technology so much that we can probably give them phones or tablets and they'll leave us alone haha

[Speaker 2] Haha. It's sad that's the way things are right now. I remember just loving going for a bike ride with my family or walks. Hanging outside doing nothing seemed entertaining when I was a kid. I try to limit screen time around here because I think it makes kids so disconnected.

[Speaker 1] I know.  I try to keep myself from falling into the same trap.  I used to play sports outside all the time and now I just sit inside watching TV and playing on my phone.

[Speaker 2] Haha maybe we can go camping sometime... I'm not sure if that would be a break for us, but it would be an adventure!

I am now cancer free. I'm retired.

I like all colors.

I didn't own a smartphone. I have a smartphone. I am not good with technology.

My daughter works full time. Her partner isn't active with the children. I take care of them when their parents are busy. My daughters husband left his family so she has to work harder. My daughter is stressed.

I have spent a lot of time with my grandchildren.

I used to play a lot of sports. I spend a lot of time watching TV and playing on my phone.

I hate the color orange.

I like dancing with may husband.

I have a pool in my backyard.

I loved going for bike rides with my family as a child. I loved going for walks with my family as a child. I limit screen time for children.

[Speaker 1] Have you ever watch Strictly Come Dancing?

[Speaker 2] No, but you know I love to dance! What is it about?

[Speaker 1] It is the British version of Dancing with the Stars.

[Speaker 2] Oh ok! I thought it was a movie! I don't really watch lot of tv, but I have  heard of Dancing with the Stars!

[Speaker 1] It's British, so the judges are a bit snarkier and less politically correct.

[Speaker 2] That sounds entertaining! I'd rather be out dancing than watching it though! Do you or your grandkids like to dance?

[Speaker 1] The grandkids do...for me, the only dancing I do these days is the pp dance due to my weak bladder

[Speaker 2] Hahaha! You are so funny! I'm getting older but that's not a problem for me yet!

[Speaker 1] Old age comes on very fast, you go along well and then it's like falling off a cliff.

[Speaker 2] Well shoot, maybe you should give me some pointers so I can be prepared!

[Speaker 1] Keep dancing and keep your swimming pool in good shape.  When you get older, the pool is a good low impact way to stay active.

[Speaker 2] I'm very happy to know that dancing can keep me young! I want to dance for as long as I can!

[Speaker 2] I imagine it would. I speak a little spanish, not much. I like reading though.

[Speaker 1] I bought back one of my favorite chocolate bars from china, I speak spanish as well.

[Speaker 2] I'm a grad student and I eat my share of chocolate during late night studying.

[Speaker 2] Is not tha the truth? It leaves little time for much else.

I play ping pong.

I play the violin.

[Speaker 2] That's great. I am so jealous. Do you have a holiday planned in China?

[Speaker 1] Yes I do. I'm returning in a few weeks for a month-long vacation, and I may look for work there. I feel like I really need a change in life right now. Are you planning on traveling? I know you had wanted to.

[Speaker 2] That's exciting. Yes. i hope to visit  Spain when i save enough money. Maybe brush up on my Spanish while there

[Speaker 1] That would be lovely! What are you studying in Grad School again? If your course load isn't too heavy you could take a Spanish class or even study abroad, which would help with language and cost!

[Speaker 2] I am studying Psychology. After my exams i'll have more time to focus on my business and save up. I am done with studying after this post grad

[Speaker 1] Oh is this your final semester of grad school? That's exciting. Do you have a job lined up for after you finish your finals?

[Speaker 2] Yes. will be finished soon. My dog walking business will be my job for a while till I get back from a holiday. I am not looking for  new jobs yet.

[Speaker 1] That's a pretty successful dog walking business then! Do you have any idea of where you want to apply for the long term? Are you going the clinical psychologist route?

I play ping pong.

I play the violin.

I am a grad student studying Psychology. I like chocolate.

I hope to visit Spain when I save enough money.

I have a job line up for after I finish my finals. My dog walking business will be my job for a while till I get back from a holiday.

[Speaker 1] I need to get ready for my holiday vacation.

[Speaker 2] What part of China will you be going to?

[Speaker 1] i am going to Beijing where i plan to walk along the Great Wall.  Where in Spain do you hope to visit?

[Speaker 2] I'm going to the Basque country

[Speaker 1] Oh fantastic, do you like Spanish food? i love tapas. hopefully you will save the money you need to go there soon.

[Speaker 2] I love tapas as well. Spain has such a rich tradition in food. I hope so too, its slowly coming together.

[Speaker 1] Oh fantastic, best to visit Spain in the summer. When do you start your new job and what is it that you will be doing?

[Speaker 2] After I get my degree. I will practice clinical therapy in the city.

[Speaker 1] That sounds exciting, are you looking forward to it? Will you move house?

[Speaker 2] No, I went to school in the same city I want to practice in.

[Speaker 1] Ok which city is that?

[Speaker 2] I have been living in San Francisco for school and will also work here.

I play ping pong.

I play the violin.

I am going to China. I have a holiday plan in China. I really need a change in life. I will be traveling to Beijing, China and hope to visit the Great Wall.

I love tapas.

I am a grad student studying Psychology, after which I plan to practice clinical therapy in the city. I will practice in the same city I go to school in. I currently live and will continue to live and work in San Francisco.

I like chocolate.

I'm going to the Basque country in Spain. I love tapas.

[Speaker 1] Did you go to school in San Francisco knowing you'd want to stay and work there too, or did you just decide you loved it too much to leave after you finish school?

[Speaker 2] Well a little of both. I had always wanted to live there but wasn't sure how much I'd like it. Then I fell in love with the city!

[Speaker 1] i dont blame you, i love san francisco too. i thought about living there for a time too when i was younger. since you love chocolate, have you visited the ghiradelli chocolate factory there?

[Speaker 2] Yes! Amazing. I bought so much chocolate for myself and my family. Have you been there? Now I'm hungry for some chocolate too

[Speaker 1] i have been there! not in a really long time. it is really good, not quite as good as my favorite chocolate from china, but pretty close! i know, now i am craving chocolate as well! i will have to stock up when i make my trip! i bet there is some good spanish chocolate as well, you will have to try it out when you go to spain and let me know how it is. have you started planning your trip?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I have a couple of guidebooks and I'm making lists of all the things I want to do, trying to map out what is nearby each other, and which things I could accomplish in one day.

[Speaker 1] that is really smart. travelling can be overwhelming. one of my favorite trips ever was to barcelona, but i've never been to basque counrty. how is your dog wakling business going? i've always been curious about that - it is easy to get several dogs to cooperate and walk together at the same time>

[Speaker 2] Well it's a challenge especially when a new dog is added to the mix. When they all know each other they cooperate more but sometimes it seems like they all want to go in different directions at once. Do you like dogs?

[Speaker 1] that makes sense. i do like dogs, but am more of a cat person. i think that when i am more settled down and not likely to travel as much it might make sense for me to get one. do you think you would get one, or does walking them scratch your dog itch for now?

I play ping pong.

I play the violin.

I love tapas.

I believe it is best to visit Spain in the summer. I love San Francisco too. I have been to San Francisco and am going there. I'm hungry for chocolate.

I like Barcelona. I've never been to Basque country.

I like dogs, but am more of a cat person. I am not settled because I travel a lot.

I like chocolate.

I visited the Ghiradelli chocolate factory in San Francisco.

[Speaker 1] I bet you can't wait to sample the restaurants in Madrid! How's the planning going for the trip?

[Speaker 2] Fantastic. All the dog owners I work for have each pitched in a different piece of advice or idea for the trip. It's going to be the trip of a lifetime!

[Speaker 1] Definitely sounds like a fun trip! Will you go anywhere else in Spain?

[Speaker 2] I want to go to Zaragoza and a few other areas, especially to learn more about the anarchist history of Spain.

[Speaker 1] Nice! Have you floated this idea with your dog owner clients? Are they receptive towards it?

[Speaker 2] Yes. Some of them have even been to Spain before. One of them even got me a huge discount on some hotels there!

[Speaker 1] Oh, that's excellent! How much have you budgeted for the trip?

[Speaker 2] After all the travel costs and lodging etc, I will have about $900 cash to spend on food and entertainment. It should be a pretty good time!

[Speaker 1] That sounds like a good budget. How much will you be spending on travel and lodging, now that one of your clients offered you a large discount?

[Speaker 2] It's around $4,000. There's plenty of other things I could spend that money on but really, I just want to go to Spain and hope I get stuck there so I don't have to come back to America.

[Speaker 1] Haha, that would be cool. Don't you have a job lined up in San Francisco though? Would you be able to work remotely?

[Speaker 2] It's dog walking though. I own a dog walking business. I can have someone else fill in for me and I could probably expand my business internationally, organizing dog walkers in Spain while I'm there.
