I had cancer but its gone now.

I'm retired and living the great life.

I've amazing children and grandchildren.

I do not have a smartphone.

My main transportation is my motorbike.

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

I waitress during the day to supplement my income.

I've light skin with big brown eyes.

I used to have a disease called lymphoma.

I enjoy being the master of my free time.

I love my kids and their kids.

I have a flip phone.

I ride a motorcycle nearly everywhere I go.

The primary colored stripes attract attention when I run.

I have a second job.

I am american.

[Speaker 1] Good afternoon. I hope you are well and healthy.

[Speaker 2] I am. Just thinking about taking my bike out for a spin

[Speaker 1] That sounds lovely. Are you an athlete?

[Speaker 2] Not really. I do race my bike though.

[Speaker 1] Wow. I wish my grandchildren were interested in something similar. But they like smartphones.

[Speaker 2] That seems to be the thing now. So expensive too

[Speaker 1] True. And I've come to know a great life does not come from expensive things.

[Speaker 2] So tre. I just wish I didn't have to wait tables to get extra money.

[Speaker 1] Its all tedious at first dear, but I know it will get better for you.

[Speaker 2] I guess it just really want to be out on my red bike.

[Speaker 1] Sounds like a true joy. I'm retired now, so you are inspiring me to try that.

[Speaker 2] Awesome. Maybe we could go out riding together.

[Speaker 1] I would love that. Life is too short to miss out on making new friends.

[Speaker 2] I have to go, talk to you later.

I have children and grandchildren.
I am retired.

I compete in bike races.
I am a waiter.
I have a red bike.

[Speaker 1] Are you part of a team that compete in bike races or do you compete individually?

[Speaker 2] I compete individually I started doing it as a teenager. How many grandchildren do you have?

[Speaker 1] I have four currently with another on the way. It is such a joy to be able to spend time with them. They are all so sweet.

[Speaker 2] That's great to hear! By any chance, if one of them is interested in learning to ride bikes I would be happy to teach them.

[Speaker 1] I have a grandson who is getting to the age where he is taking the training wheels off and I think he would love that. He's a wild one, so I bet he'd love to learn.

[Speaker 2] Start them young! I can start teaching him as soon as he's out of training wheels. I hope I can meet your other grandchildren as well, you can bring them to the cafe I'm working at as a waiter. I would love to treat them to some hot choco.

[Speaker 1] I will bring them by the next time they stay over at my house for the weekend. They love getting out and about and meeting new people.

[Speaker 2] That's great!! Let me know the next time they are over. What did you do after retirement?

[Speaker 1] For a while I just relaxed and got used to not working and spent a lot of time with family. I'm starting to think about new hobbies and getting into traveling now though. I just don't want to get bored.

[Speaker 2] Yeah its the time to relax and unwind. You remember me of my grandad, I should visit him soon and show him my red bike. I have a competition next time, and I want to invite you.

[Speaker 1] I would love to come! Just tell me when and where and I will be there!

[Speaker 2] I am super excited! I'll invite my grandad too. Maybe you guys can get along. He's also retired.

I have children. I have four grandchildren with another on the way. I love spending time with my grandchildren. All of my grandchildren are sweet.

One of my grandsons is about to be old enough to take the training wheel off of his bike. One of my grandsons is a wild one. My grandchildren love getting out and about and meeting new people.

I have a red bike. I compete individually in bike races. I started bike racing as a teenager.

I teach bike riding.

I work in a cafe as a waiter.

I have an upcoming bike racing competition.

My grandad is retired.

[Speaker 1] How many bike races have you won?

[Speaker 2] Quite a few actually! It was my life as a kid, and now my career as an adult. Do you think you'd get one of your grandkids into it, as the training wheels are coming off?

[Speaker 1] A lot of it, is listening to the kid, seeing where they are strong, and what they are interested in. I want to make sure my grand kids know how to use the breaks before I let them go on their own!  Love teaching confidence gradually to them.

[Speaker 2] That's great! How old is your bike riding grandkid?

[Speaker 1] He's just started school and is getting down the alphabet and the like. Need to find something to focus all that energy on. Do you have a workout routine for biking, regularly?

[Speaker 2] I do - a few miles every day in general, but when I'm training it's far more. I also do a lot of leg work. You may be interested in some biking holidays, actually, if you're looking for something like that.

[Speaker 1] Ah, something that might get the kid interested perhaps. If it's something that makes you happy, sure feel free to share the biking holidays!

[Speaker 2] My favourite 'track' (though not really a track exactly) is along the Venice Boardwalk. So much space, all that sea air!

[Speaker 1] Sounds intriguing. Do you plan your vacations around nice places to bike? I bet Europe would have a few great treks. Riding a bike in my neighborhood, that's just fine too. Where was your last holiday?

[Speaker 2] I do sometimes, but not always. Sometimes I like to have a chance to simply walk around. My last holiday was to Milan. The food is exquisite, as is the architecture. What about you?

[Speaker 1] I tend to stay within my region generally, and many times the kids help figure out the destinations. Been thinking about the new season, there are some great forests to explore for hiking and biking.

[Speaker 2] Sometimes the best places are right on our doorstep - that sounds amazing. Got any favourites specifically?

I am retired. I've mostly relaxed while I've been retired. I'm now starting to think about new hobbies and getting into traveling. I hate boredom. I usually stay local. I like hiking.

I teach bike riding. I bike every day. I work out my legs. I have biked the Venice Boardwalk.

I work in a cafe as a waiter.

My grandad is retired.

I like to walk on vacations. I like good food and architecture.

[Speaker 1] Do you bike to work at the cafe?

[Speaker 2] Yes, most days I do.  If it's raining I don't because I need to not be sopping wet at work.  But otherwise that's my preferred way to commute.

[Speaker 1] That's good. It's an environmentally friendly way to get to work! I'm glad you're reducing your carbon footprint.

[Speaker 2] Yes, I definitely try to do that.  It can be a faster way to travel anyway.  Traffic around here can be pretty gnarly.

[Speaker 1] Certainly. Sounds like you're pretty comfortable being on a bike, too, so that must be a plus.

[Speaker 2] Yes, for sure.  Say, before you said that you were retired.  What did you used to do for a living?

[Speaker 1] I was a petroleum engineer, ironically. I'd go out to oil fields and offshore rigs and help design the processes used for petroleum extraction.

[Speaker 2] Oh wow, that's amazing.  Did you have a degree in petroleum engineering?  Or chemical engineering?

[Speaker 1] I got a degree in chemical engineering. Many schools didn't offer degrees in petroleum engineering back in the day.

[Speaker 2] Interesting.  I remember seeing a list of degrees and what their starting salaries were and chemical engineering was very high on the list.  I remember that because my uncle was a chemical engineer and he seemed to get paid pretty well.

[Speaker 1] Yep, it's a very high-paying job. The oil & gas industry is pretty far away from God's work, but it is lucrative,

[Speaker 2] That's what my uncle used to say, too!  They don't teach you to say that in school, do they?

I used to be petroleum engineer.  have a degree in chemical engineering. My job was very high-paying.

I work in a cafe as a waiter. I usually bike to work. I try to reduce my carbon footprint. I live in a place with bad traffic.

My grandad is retired.

[Speaker 1] I decided I'm going to start riding a bike for exercise. What kind would you recommend I get, as someone who hasn't ridden in years?

[Speaker 2] I would get a trail bike that way you can ride the bike on the trails and ride the bike on the roads. What do you think?

[Speaker 1] That sounds like a good place to start. I like being out on the trials and in nature. It would be fun to ride with my grandchildren as well in the future.

[Speaker 2] Your grandchildren would love to be outside on the trials with you. Do they have bikes?

[Speaker 1] They are still really young so we have to find an easier place to go but they do like being out there with me.

[Speaker 2] Oh great, its good to start them off with hiking at a young age because it is healthy for them.

[Speaker 1] Yeah I want them to be outdoors and playing instead of video games inside.

[Speaker 2] Children spend way too much time playing videos games, it must be the generation. Now that your retired, you should have plenty of time to hike with them .

[Speaker 1] Yeah I can’t believe how fast the days are going though after I retired. I thought I would get bored but I always have things to do. I started gardening as a hobby.

[Speaker 2] Thats a wonderful hobby to start, especially when retired. Do you plant vegetables?

[Speaker 1] Yeah I plant peppers, onions, zucchini and a few different kinds of herbs.

[Speaker 2] Thats wonderful, you should get the grandchildren involved!


I love chemical free carrots.

I surf the web many hours a day.

I believe strongly in the power of women.

My house is heated by the sun.

I can only somewhat hear.
I show historical artifacts.
I plant flowers.
I love to read.

[Speaker 1] Hello, how are you doing?

[Speaker 2] I just got off work

[Speaker 1] Where do you work at?

[Speaker 2] I am a tour guide at a museum. What do you do for a living?

[Speaker 1] If you consider being a feminist a job, that's what I do.

[Speaker 2] Interesting. Do you have any hobbies?

[Speaker 1] I love browsing the web. What about you?

[Speaker 2] I like to garden. I grow roses.

[Speaker 1] Roses are pretty. What kind of a diet do you follow?

[Speaker 2] I don't follow any particular diet. Do you?

[Speaker 1] Strictly organic. Its best for our bodies.

[Speaker 2] Yes, maybe I wouldn't be partly deaf if I ate like that.

[Speaker 1] Possibly. Do you utilize solar panels?

[Speaker 2] No, do you use solar panels?

[Speaker 1] Yes, on my roof. You should look into them

[Speaker 2] I will. I think I've a book about them in the library at my house.


I live in canada.
My favourite food is shawarma.
I didn't graduate high school.
My grandfather served in world war a.

My favorite type of music to sing is folk music.

I'm a musician and hope to make it big some day.

I play the piano and guitar and sing.

I also work as a custodian to help pay the bills.

I reside in the far north of america.

I love middle eastern cuisine.

I think work experience can make up for not having a degree.

My grandpa is a veteran.

I often enjoy folksy tunes.

I work with music and I dream of success.

I am skilled in two musical instruments.

I'm a janitor at a school.

[Speaker 1] Hello, currently residing in canada, on the run. How are you?

[Speaker 2] I am okay. Tired from cleaning all day.

[Speaker 1] Do you eat shawarma while you clean? That's my fav food.

[Speaker 2] No, but I do sing folk songs to make work go easier.

[Speaker 1] Singing and cleaning. My grandpa and I served in the world war.

[Speaker 2] Together? That's interesting. Do either of you play any instruments?

[Speaker 1] Ya it was a great experience. Used to play wood blocks, you?

[Speaker 2] I tickle the ivories, strum on the guitar, and sing. I want to be rich and famous.

[Speaker 1] I am good at the sing instrument. I failed out of high school though.

[Speaker 2] Well, you made it through a world war, so you must have been smart enough.

[Speaker 1] I did ok. Was really good at chucking grenades.

[Speaker 2] I like explosions. But they do not let me use grenades while I clean the school.

[Speaker 1] That seems odd. My local school allows most weapons and explosives.

[Speaker 2] Maybe I should relocate. Your place sounds like more fun.

[Speaker 1] Ya a lot of brilliant people graduate from there. Maybe that is why I didn't.

[Speaker 2] Just keep a song in your heart, and your head held high. We will get through.

I live in Canada.

I love to eat shawarma.

I used to play the wood blocks.

I can sing. I flunked high school.

I was really good at throwing grenades.

I live near a school with a very tolerant attitude to weapons.

I don't eat shawarma.

I like explosions. I work as a school cleaner.

[Speaker 1] Say, can you play Semper Fidelis on the piano? I learned to play it on the wood blocks when I served!

[Speaker 2] I can!  We should play it together some time!  I bet it would sound amazing!  What other things did you learn how to do when you served?

[Speaker 1] I learned how to shoot guns and kill people from a long distance! I was a sniper! I think it would be great to play music together! What kind of folk songs could we play together?

[Speaker 2] I've always liked playing Hallelujah...do you know that song?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I love the version by that one guy... I could do a nice rendition of Hallelujah on the wood blocks I bet. What is that guy's name? Jeff something?

[Speaker 2] Yes, Jeff Buckley.  Do you know the words?  I'd love to hear you sing along!

[Speaker 1] I love to sing. You can play the piano and I'll sing. Or should we duet? I'm looking forward to this!

[Speaker 2] A duet would be fun!  Although I'm sure your voice is better than mine haha!  But I'll certainly try my hardest!  Are you free this weekend?

[Speaker 1] Yes, we should grab lunch and then meet at your house to work on our songs. We could take this show on the road!

[Speaker 2] Perfect plan!  What type of food do you like to eat?

[Speaker 1] Well you know I love shawarma, but I love all middle eastern food. What about you? You pick! You're hosting this jam session at your house so you can choose the food!

[Speaker 2] I've never had shawarma, but I'd be open to trying it!  I'm always up to try new things!  I'm so excited for our get-together!

I live in Canada.

I am a world war veteran. My grandfather is a world war veteran. I served as sniper.

I used to play the wood blocks.

I love to sing. I flunked high school.

I was really good at throwing grenades.

I don't eat shawarma.

I like playing the song Hallelujah.

[Speaker 1] We'll get you some shawarma before we jam. You'll be wondering why it took you so long to try!

[Speaker 2] That sounds great.  I love to try new food.

[Speaker 1] Great! We'll get you the plate, that way you can get the salad, rice, hummus and pita too. I'm thinking about adding some grape leaves and baklava in there too.

[Speaker 2] Yum!  I was going to ask if it was more like a meal.  Since we'll be jamming for a while it will be great to start with a full belly.  I've had a gyro before, and read it may be similar.  Really looking forward.  Did we set a time to meet up?

[Speaker 1] I was thinking we could set a time for 6pm one night. Is there a day that works best for you?

[Speaker 2] My work at the school ends at 5pm, so 6pm works great. Weekends of course are more flexible, but any day during the week works for me.  I already took my guitar out of it's case to get ready.

[Speaker 1] Haha, we can wait until the weekend. I have a few errands I need to run this evening.

[Speaker 2] You are always so busy.  My sister is coming over tonight bringing me dinner.  She is bringing BBQ over. Have you tried Beef Brisket?

[Speaker 1] I love beef brisket! Is she ordering it or is she making it herself?

[Speaker 2] She has had it in the smoker overnight.  All the talk you & I have been doing about food made me hungry.  When she called me earlier to tell me she was using her smoker, it was like perfect timing! I told her I HAD to have some.  Lol.

[Speaker 1] Haha! I wish I could be there! Now I'm getting hungry.

[Speaker 2] Maybe you can pick up some Shawarma while you're out running errands.  My break is about over.  Back to cleaning!

I live in Canada.

I used to play the wood blocks.

I love to sing. I flunked high school.

I was really good at throwing grenades.

I don't eat shawarma. I love to try new food. I have eaten a gyro before.

I play the piano. I play the guitar. I like to sing folk songs. My goal is to be rich and famous. I like playing the song Hallelujah.

I like explosions. I work as a school cleaner and I am done at 5pm.

I have a sister.

[Speaker 1] How was the beef brisket your sister made?

[Speaker 2] It was delicious.  I actually just bought a pellet smoker and I am about to smoke one myself!

[Speaker 1] wow you'll have to let me try it. i would love a smoker

[Speaker 2] I am excited.  It can be used as a smoker/ grill/oven.  it's pretty neat.  Have you ever had smoked brisket?

[Speaker 1] yes once at a bbq place in nashville

[Speaker 2] I see.   How was it?

[Speaker 1] really good, proably the best i've ever had

[Speaker 2] I really enjoy it too.  Smoking meat on a pellet grill is really easy.  You should try it.

[Speaker 1] i will do, do you know the name of your smoker?

[Speaker 2] Yes.  It is a reqteq grill.  They are based out of Georgia.  I did my research and they had the best reviews and their customer service is top notch.

[Speaker 1] thank you. i will give them a call! hopefully i'll have one in time for summer

[Speaker 2] If you cook the meat slow enough it is really tender.  You could slice it really thin and make a shawarma style dish out of it.

I live in Canada.

I used to play the wood blocks.

I love to sing. I flunked high school.

I was really good at throwing grenades.

I love all middle eastern food, especially shawarma. I have tried beef brisket in the past and love it. I hope to have a grill/smoker in time for summer.

I have a sister.

I just bought a pellet smoker and am about to smoke a beef brisket. I enjoy brisket. I bought a reqteq grill based out of Georgia.

[Speaker 1] I am thinking of grilling some jalapeno poppers on the grill when I get it while smoking a chicken.

[Speaker 2] That sounds delicious. The weather seems good for it too. Are you making it just for yourself or are you going to be sharing it?

[Speaker 1] Oh, I'll definitely share! That's my favorite part about grilling. Making dinner, folks show up, and all of a sudden it's a cookout with the best food. Nothing beats the grill.

[Speaker 2] That's wonderful! Any friends or family coming over?

[Speaker 1] Not sure yet, but you're welcome to come on by! We can jam too. Bring your guitar!

[Speaker 2] I'd love to! I have an electronic keyboard I can bring as well if you'd like!

[Speaker 1] That sounds perfect! Is there anyone else you might like to bring along?

[Speaker 2] I can ask my sister if she'd like to come along - she also sings! I'm sure you'd enjoy it. She's not shy either, so I'm sure she won't mind an audience.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, that sounds great. I'd love to have her over. Does she know I'm single now? ;)

[Speaker 2] She doesn't know, but I think she might be a bit too young for you! ;) But she's still a lovely person to be around!

[Speaker 1] Darn! I don't mind 'em young as long as they're legal, but I'll stay away from your sister out of respect for you. But hey, she could do worse.

[Speaker 2] Appreciate it man! And of course, nothing wrong with dating a veteran! I forgot to ask, do you have any kids or grandkids?

[Speaker 1] I am! I want to be a professional soccer player

[Speaker 2] Exciting! I played soccer in high school too, long ago

[Speaker 1] Did you enjoy it? I love it

[Speaker 2] Very much. Now I have bad knees and back from all the construction work

[Speaker 1] I'm sorry to hear. That doesn't sound fun

[Speaker 2] It is ok, I love building houses, no regrets

[Speaker 1] Wow seems like a lot of hard work

[Speaker 2] It is! Then I get to go home to my cats and a beer

[Speaker 1] I've never drank, is it fun?

[Speaker 2] As long as you drink responsibly it is


I plan to go to business school next year.

My parents are very wealthy bankers.

I graduated from yale in 2011 with a degree in finance.

I grew up in manhattan.

Eating is something I do when I am bored.

I like doing the treadmill and rowing machine.

I've short hair.

Two dogs live with me.

I am saving up money to further my education.

My mother and father make a lot of money.

I have a baccalaureate in business.

I lived in the city.

I have trouble with food when I don't have anything to do.

I love going to the gym.

I get a buzz cut every two weeks.

I've a couple of pets.

[Speaker 1] Hi there, my name is ali.

[Speaker 2] Good evening ali. Tanya here.

[Speaker 1] Hey tanya. I went to school with a girl named tanya back when I was at yale.

[Speaker 2] Cool. I have been so bored, so of course I eat!

[Speaker 1] Oh I understand that. I grew up with some of the best food back in manhattan.

[Speaker 2] Yum. Good thing I enjoy using the rowing machine and treadmill.

[Speaker 1] So did I! My parents had all kinds of equipment thanks to their banking job.

[Speaker 2] That's great. Any pets? I have a german shepherd and a schnauzer.

[Speaker 1] Unfortunately no. The dorms at business school doesn't allow them.

[Speaker 2] Do you long hair or short? I just tried a short haircut.

[Speaker 1] Long hair all the way. Although short hair may look more professional.

[Speaker 2] I've to get used to this. So any hobbies?

[Speaker 1] I love being in the stock market. I guess that's why I am going to finance.

[Speaker 2] That's your major? That will be great to know about money.

[Speaker 1] Well I already have one degree, but I'm going back to business school for another.

[Speaker 2] Go education!! Well, take care and good luck with your classes.

My name is Ali.

I lived in Manhattan. My parents are bankers.

I have long hair.

My name is Tanya.
I eat when bored.
I own exercise machines.
I have 2 dogs.
I dont know about money.

[Speaker 1] Hi Tanya, did you get used to your haircut yet?

[Speaker 2] Not really as I long my long hair just like you, so How is it to live in Manhattan?

[Speaker 1] Well I would say it is bit of Expensive but my parents can afford, I love to have pets but have not much space.

[Speaker 2] You may need to move to a bigger hour for having dogs, how long is remaining for your college?

[Speaker 1] I am in final year and will pass out next year, so what kind of dogs you have?

[Speaker 2] I have two poodles and they are adorable, so whats the big plans after passing out?

[Speaker 1] Well keeping my field in practice and become a Stock Trader in NASDAQ, and can teach you some about the money.

[Speaker 2] That is so nice of you for the offer, as I am trying to loose some weight as well.

[Speaker 1] yeah so what type of exercise machine you have?

[Speaker 2] Well its a multi-training module and help me a lot to loose calories.

[Speaker 1] So why you get bored that makes you eat more, won't you have more activites to do?

[Speaker 2] Well the days are very long and I live alone so most of the time its very boring.

My name is Ali.

I have long hair.

I am in my final year of college. I will pass out next year. I plan to become a stock trader in NASDAQ.

My name is Tanya.

I eat when bored. I live alone. I am often bored.

I dont know about money.

I recently had a haircut.

I have two poodles.

[Speaker 1] I just got my latest exam results for my Finance degree, I got an A

[Speaker 2] That sounds great. Bet you put a lot of effort into study. Makes me smile hearing about your success. How far along are you on the degree?

[Speaker 1] I just have to make up one class during the summer and i am done!

[Speaker 2] Getting close to that goal must feel fantastic. What particular degree in Finance are you getting? Bachelor, Master, etc.

[Speaker 1] Its my BA but i think i will continue to get my Masters. Enough about me heh, hows your work outs going? The new machine good?

[Speaker 2] It does the job, although getting a rhythm can take a bit of work. I'm keeping consistent, although it takes a bit of time to get going, 2 weeks usually for me before it's regular. Do you work out, and what do you do?

[Speaker 1] I try to hit the gym when i can but ive been so busy. I usually at least try to get a run in every day though. Helps with the stress.

[Speaker 2] Running can be great, at times I've been a runner. Used to be 3 miles, 3 x a week, goal was 10 miles a week. What's your distance like?

[Speaker 1] I think the path i take is about 2.5miles. So i usually try to get in one round before or after school.

[Speaker 2] That is a good amount, as it's enough to get your heart rate up to be sure. Many times, I have to be mindful of schedule and location, as it impacts how consistent I am. Bet you have favorite parts of the path. I love setting up goals to run past.

[Speaker 1] I do have some favorite trails but the path i take is around my apartment. Its close so i can get it done.

[Speaker 2] Location, and being close, that's helps my exercise. Although many times, just keeping up with the kids will give you plenty of exercise!

My name is Ali.

I went to Yale. I have been in college for awhile. I'm going to college and live in a dorm. My major is Finance. I got an A in Finance. I have to take one class in summer and then I will receive my Bachelor's Degree.  I think I will pursue a Master's Degree.

I have long hair.

My name is Tanya. I have kids.

I dont know about money.

I recently had a haircut.

I have two poodles.

I am trying to lose weight. I have a multi-training model exercise machine. It takes me about 2 weeks to get into a regular exercise routine. I used to run 3 miles 3 times a week.  My goal used to be to run 10 miles per week. Schedule and location impact my consistency when running. Choosing a close running location helps me to exercise.

[Speaker 1] I just signed up for my summer class, I'm so close to getting my BA in Finance now!

[Speaker 2] That's great! I think this summer I'll try getting into better shape by walking my poodles everyday.

[Speaker 1] Have you gotten back up to doing 10 miles a week?

[Speaker 2] Not yet. My schedule has gotten in the way and I've only been getting 6 miles done.

[Speaker 1] well 6 is better than zero.  Ive been missing my runs the past few days, been busy with school.

[Speaker 2] School must be stressful since it's your final year. It's hard to stick to a good exercise routine when life is constantly getting in the way.

[Speaker 1] It can be, Im hoping to get back into the normal routine during the summer.  Im only taking the one class so it should be easier.

[Speaker 2] My exercise machine is helpful for when I need a quick workout but can't find time to go for a run or walk.

[Speaker 1] I bet thats nice, When it rains here I feel like im missing out because I dont want to get wet.

[Speaker 2] I hate running in the rain. Does it rain a lot in your area?

[Speaker 1] off and on, its usually not too bad, but in the winter it can be bad with snow and ice.

[Speaker 2] I hate winter. I'm so clumsy that I'm always slipping on ice.

My name is Ali.

I went to Yale. I have been in college for awhile. I'm going to college and live in a dorm. My major is Finance. I got an A in Finance. I only have to take one class in summer and then I will receive my Bachelor's Degree in finance.  I think I will pursue a Master's Degree.

I have long hair.

I try to run everyday. I try to hit the gym when I can.  I've been busy lately. I try to run about 2 1/2 miles either before or after school. I take a running path near my apartment. I run but haven't been able to the last few days with school being busy. I hope to get back to my normal routine during the summer. I don't like to get wet when I'm running so I don't run when it is raining.

My name is Tanya. I have kids.

I dont know about money.

I recently had a haircut.

I have two poodles.

I am trying to lose weight. I have a multi-training model exercise machine. It takes me about 2 weeks to get into a regular exercise routine. I used to run 3 miles 3 times a week. I used to go 10 miles a week, my schedule lately has restricted me to 6 miles a day. Schedule and location impact my consistency when running. Choosing a close running location helps me to exercise.

I hate running in the rain. I hate winter, I always slip on the ice.

[Speaker 1] I just got the agenda for my summer class and it looks like it will be a bit easier than my last semester classes.

[Speaker 2] That's great! You'll be done with school before you know it.

[Speaker 1] Yeah I'll be trading stocks before I know it! How's your exercising going?

[Speaker 2] I'm really struggling. I just can't seem to motivate myself to get out there. How about you? Been able to get back into your routine?

[Speaker 1] I've not had much free time with school so it's been a week or so since I went for the run. I ate so many cookies at the weekend too :(

[Speaker 2] Well sometimes it's nice to just relax and eat cookies. What kind were they?

[Speaker 1] Chocolate chip - the best! What junk food do you like?

[Speaker 2] Oh chocolate chip are the best. I usually go more for the salty snacks. I love a good chips and salsa or a queso when I'm really splurging.

[Speaker 1] I love chips too! I've got too much of a sweet tooth, I love sugary snacks.

[Speaker 2] My favorite sugary treat is a cheesecake. What's yours?

[Speaker 1] Ooooh it has to be gooey chocolate brownies. Homemade are the best. Do you bake?

[Speaker 2] I don't. Baking is one thing I never learned how to do. What about you?


I ride my motorcycle everywhere.

I have a second job.

The primary colored stripes attract attention when I run.

I'm american.

I've light features.

I get annoyed with my roommate sometimes.

In order to afford tuition I serve drinks in the evening.

I'm a vegetarian.

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

[Speaker 2] Wonderful I just moved to a new place!

[Speaker 1] Oh that is neat. Where did you move to?

[Speaker 2] Close to my school in philadelphia.

[Speaker 1] That's neat. Are you male or female?

[Speaker 2] Female. With blue eyes and light blonde hair, yourself?

[Speaker 1] Female as well, light skin, blonde hair, and brown eyes. Hah!

[Speaker 2] What is your favorite food. Mine is strawberries

[Speaker 1] I will gladly take a nice slice of pizza any day.

[Speaker 2] Lol. Do you work? I am part time at a bar.

[Speaker 1] I do work! I waitress during the day, then I do side jobs during the evening.

[Speaker 2] I see! So you have any hobbies?

[Speaker 1] I like to ride my motorcycle when possible. I always have to have a helmet!

[Speaker 2] Safety first! My best friend is vegan. Which works well. Because chicken is gross


I would do anything for italian cuisine.

I enjoy rock music.

I'm a pet owner.

I'm afraid of traveling.

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

[Speaker 1] Hello how are you today?

[Speaker 2] Hi. Okay. Heartburn. 2 months until I am due. The twins are restless tonight.

[Speaker 1] That is funny, I do not get along with my wife

[Speaker 2] Oh, no. Sorry to hear that. Hubby and I disagree once in a while about the kids.

[Speaker 1] We fight about our cat, spook

[Speaker 2] Yeah. Well, I wish you luck there. We bought a cute 2 story house.

[Speaker 1] Nice, I don't think I have ever left ohio

[Speaker 2] You should travel if you get a chance. Its expensive to travel with kids.

[Speaker 1] Not if you like to hitch hike

[Speaker 2] I suppose, but that does not work with a pregnant woman and 3 kids

[Speaker 1] Sounds like someone has been busy

[Speaker 2] Yep. Between work at the bank and the kids, I am exhausted every night.

[Speaker 1] Yes you need to get more sleep

[Speaker 2] So true. Enough about me. Tell me more about you.

[Speaker 1] I should fly to england

[Speaker 2] Sounds like a lot of fun.


I'm a recovering alcoholic.
I now live in the city.
I grew up on a farm.
I'm a 45 year old male.

I own a house in florida.

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

I enjoy american sports.

I've a children and a dogs.

I used to drink a lot but not anymore.

The urban life suits me fine since I moved from the country.

I am from north dakota.

I am a middle aged man.

I've a home located in the great sunny state.

I'm a loyal employee.

I am a football, baseball and basketball fan.

My home has kids and animals in it.

[Speaker 1] Hello, how are you today?

[Speaker 2] Hey! Just watching a game of football with my children. You?

[Speaker 1] That's cool! I am an alcoholic who is recovering

[Speaker 2] Ah man congrats for trying to get back on the road!

[Speaker 1] Yeah, I live in the city now so its hard

[Speaker 2] Ah I live in florida man, I feel you. The city is full of temptations.

[Speaker 1] Yeah it really is tempting! I used to live on a farm though

[Speaker 2] Do you have a job currently? I'm a programmer for a game company.

[Speaker 1] I want to but I'm a male 45 year old who was an alcoholic

[Speaker 2] It must be hard making a living, I feel sorry for you pal.

[Speaker 1] It is ok! I'll hopefully get better

[Speaker 2] Do you have any hobbies?

[Speaker 1] Yeah I like to count the freckles on my foot

[Speaker 2] Haha you are a funny guy! Maybe you should be a stand up comedian!

[Speaker 1] Thank you! That would be really fun

[Speaker 2] Anyways man I gotta go walk my dogs soon, it was nice chatting with you!

I no longer drink alcohol.

I live in the city. I used to live on a farm.

I was an alcoholic.  I dont have a job.  I am 45 years old.

I dont have hobbies.  I am funny. I like fun jobs.

I have kids.  I like football.
I live in Florida.
I have a job in technology.
I like comedians.
I have dogs. I like to walk my dogs.

[Speaker 1] Hey how are you and your kids doing?  Howd the game end?

[Speaker 2] Florida won! Thank goodness. My kids are great. My oldest son is playing football now!

[Speaker 1] Hi!  You must be so proud!  Remind me again.  Do you support University of Florida or Florida State University?

[Speaker 2] The University of Florida. Go Gators! What about you? Are you fan of football? Who do you root for?

[Speaker 1] Haha there's a saying here that Gators wear Jorts (jean shorts)!  I'm a fan of football, but English football.  Soccer.  I support Tottenham Hotspur!

[Speaker 2] Oh that's cool, I don't know anything about soccer. I mean football! Is Tottenham Hotspur a good team. And by the way we DO NOT wear jorts! Hahaha!

[Speaker 1] I mean...if I *had* to pick an American football team to cheer for, it would be UGA. GO DAWGS!  Fitting since I'm a farm boy from Georgia.  How's your weather down south today?  It's crazy humid here.

[Speaker 2] It's humid here too, as always! How does a farm boy from Georgia become a fan of Tottenham Hotspur?

[Speaker 1] Keen observation, my friend!  Self loathing perhaps?  Haha!  Truth be told...I think the name is fun to say :)  So where did you take the dogs on your walk earlier?

[Speaker 2] We got up a five a.m. and took a 3 mile jaunt all around our neighborhood. It was great exercise and a great way to start the day! How did your day start today?

[Speaker 1] You're shaming us mortals with that routine!  I rolled out of bed, grabbed a cup of coffee, and watched the goats frolic while the sun came up.  Are you working today?

[Speaker 2] Nope I've got the day off! I got up super early, but I have to admit that I will probably take a nap. Tell me more about these goats!

I no longer drink alcohol. I was an alcoholic.

I dont have a job.  I am 45 years old.

I am a fan of soccer. I support Tottenham Hotspur. If I had to choose a football team to support it would be UGA. I am a farm boy from Georgia. It is humid where I live.

I live in Florida. It is humid where I live too.

I have a job in technology.

I like comedians.

I have kids. My oldest son plays football now. I like football.

I support the University of Florida.

I don't know anything about soccer.

[Speaker 1] How many dogs do you have?

[Speaker 2] I have 6 dogs. They're all poodles. We make quite the spectacle when we go out on our walks.

[Speaker 1] I can only imagine. I've only ever tried to walk two at once and that was hard enough.

[Speaker 2] You should see me try to give them all a bath at the same time. It's pretty funny.

[Speaker 1] How would that even work? You must have a massive bathtub! Or do you bathe them outside?

[Speaker 2] I have a swimming pool. I just drop in a gallon or two of bubble bath soap and then see how things go.

[Speaker 1] Sounds like a party. Have you ever tried a similar pool party for your kids? Just turining the pool into one big bubble bath to swim in?

[Speaker 2] Unfortunately my kids all have a rare disease and they're all allergic to water. Have you ever met someone allergic to water?

[Speaker 1] I've never met anyone allergic to water. I myself have no Allergies so I can only Imagine.

[Speaker 2] I'm only allergic to cats. My house is a no cat zone. What are your feelings on cats?

[Speaker 1] I love cats. I love all animals to be honest. It's actually animal therapy that helped me get past my alcoholism.

[Speaker 2] What was your drink of choice? I'm not much of a drinker, to be honest.

I dont have a job.  I am 45 years old.

I have no allergies.

I love cats. I love all animals. I used to be an alcoholic. Animal therapy helped cure me.

I have a job in technology.

I like comedians.

I support the University of Florida.

I don't know anything about soccer.

I have dogs and we went for a 3 mile jaunt around the neighborhood this morning. I have 6 dogs. They are poodles. I bathe my dogs in my swimming pool.

My kids have a rare disease that they are allergic to water. I am allergic to cats. I have no cats.

I don't drink much.

[Speaker 1] I found a doctor doing an experimental treatment for water allergies.

[Speaker 2] Oh, interesting. What's the procedure like?

[Speaker 1] i'm not really sure of the details but i've been told he is getting very promising results

[Speaker 2] Hmm, you might want to make sure you have more than anecdotal evidence that this guy's treatment works, especially if it's an experimental one.

[Speaker 1] yes i would definitely do some more research before i underwent a procedure

[Speaker 2] That's a good idea. By the way, why bother with this treatment at all? Aren't you not allergic to anything?

[Speaker 1] yes sorry i meant for you. fortunately i am not alergic to anything

[Speaker 2] Ah, makes sense. I guess I'll have to look into it, then. Where is this doctor located?

[Speaker 1] tampa! is that anywhere near you?

[Speaker 2] Oh, that's pretty close! I live in Orlando, so it shouldn't be too far of a drive.

[Speaker 1] i love orlando i have been a few times. do you like living there?

[Speaker 2] It's alright, I guess. Most people come here for Disney and whatnot, but the city itself is your sorta average, mid-tier American city. Maybe I could just move to Tampa altogether or something like that.

I dont have a job.  I am 45 years old.

I have no allergies.

I have been to Orlando.

I live in Orlando. It is humid where I live too.

I have a job in technology.

I like comedians.

I support the University of Florida.

I don't know anything about soccer.

I don't drink much.

I can drive. I own a car.

I'm not sure I like Orlando. I might move to Tampa.

[Speaker 1] So how are the dogs doing?

[Speaker 2] They are always full of energy which is why I have to take them out long trips. Plus having 6 of them is a real handful.

[Speaker 1] I can't even imagine! Do they always get along with each other or do they get in fights sometimes?

[Speaker 2] Sometimes they fight. They get a bit excited and having so many they just feed of each other. One way to calm them down to get them in the pool. It also keeps them clean.

[Speaker 1] Oh that's smart! But then I imagine you have to clean the pool more often, right? Pool maintenance can be a pain I bet.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I might have to stop doing it as their hair clogs up the filters. My kids are always complaining about it.

[Speaker 1] Have you thought about getting a smaller inflatable pool for them? I have one and it's a nice way to cool off in the summer.

[Speaker 2] Do you think that would work? I did consider it but I just assumed that they would end up bursting it.

[Speaker 1] I'm not sure. I guess it depends on how rowdy they are. Of course, there are better and worse quality ones.

[Speaker 2] Well, like I said, 6 of them together can be quite rowdy. It could be worth a try though, they are generally quite cheap.

[Speaker 1] Definitely. I got mine for about $50 if I remember correctly. Plus, it's fun to go shopping sometimes. Do you like shopping?

[Speaker 2] I am not a huge fan of shopping. I much prefer to get things delivered, that way I can get more time to other things.


My next language to study is french.

I'm a musician.

One of the languages that I am currently studying is spanish.

My favorite spanish word is trabajo.

I also study languages.

My parents are very wealthy bankers.

I graduated from yale in 2011 with a degree in finance.

I drive a bmw.

I plan to go to business school next year.

I know multiple tongues.

I enjoy music.

I take espanol at the local college.

I really like latin languages.

I am interested in the way foreign people speak.

My mother and father make a lot of money.

I've a baccalaureate in business.

I own a high end car.

I am saving up money to further my education.

[Speaker 1] Hi, want to get to know each other?

[Speaker 2] Sure! What do you do for a living?

[Speaker 1] I'm a student. I study languages, you?

[Speaker 2] I'm a student also, I have a degree from yale but I'm going back soon.

[Speaker 1] Wow, what is your degree in?

[Speaker 2] Finance, I am going back for business next.

[Speaker 1] Ambitious. I am just about fluent in spanish. I am starting french soon.

[Speaker 2] Wow that is awesome! Thanks, my parents inspired me. They're rich bankers.

[Speaker 1] Rich is probably nice. I would like more money for travel

[Speaker 2] Me too. They make me work for everything I have.

[Speaker 1] That's for the best. What do you do for fun?

[Speaker 2] Not much really. I stay pretty busy. You?

[Speaker 1] Well I try to. I play in a band on weekends

[Speaker 2] That is nice! Which instrument? I just bought my first car.

[Speaker 1] I play the drums. Like lane kim. What kind of car

[Speaker 2] Never heard of him. A 2000 bmw. Its not much but I'm proud.

I'm a student. I study languages. I am almost fluent in Spanish. I am going to study French soon.

I would like to travel.

I play drums in a band on weekends.

I have a degree from Yale. My degree is in finance. I'm going back to school to study business.

My parents are wealthy bankers.

I don't have much time for fun.

I just bought my first car: a 2000 BMW.

[Speaker 1] I just had a rehearsal with my band. If you ever want to hear me play, let me know and I'll get you into one of our shows.

[Speaker 2] It would be awesome to go to one of your shows! Do you have anything coming up?

[Speaker 1] I have a show 2 weeks from now. I can leave tickets at the door for you if you have time to come by. I know you are very busy since you are going back to school.

[Speaker 2] Okay, cool! How long do your band's shows usually last?  I just want to stay organized and plan out my schedule around it.

[Speaker 1] Our set is usually an hour long. I get it can be hard to stay organized. I am in school also, so I really have to keep my time managed. Are you happy to be going back to school?.

[Speaker 2] Nice, one hour seems like the perfect length.  I've been very happy with the decision to return.  I think it'll really open up some new job opportunities with more management responsibilities.  I feel like finance is so impersonal and isolated nowadays and I love the idea of managing people.

[Speaker 1] That sounds amazing! Will you be returning to Yale, or do you have another school in mind?

[Speaker 2] Probably not Yale, I'd like to stay closer to home this time, especially since I want to try and continue working while I attend.

[Speaker 1] That makes a lot of sense. You will save so much money by staying close to home and continuing to work, especially since you just brought a new car. How do you like the new car?

[Speaker 2] The new car has been wonderful! It's got such a smooth but powerful ride!  Have you ever driven a BMW?  If not, you need to experience it sometime.  They've got a heavenly road feel.

[Speaker 1] I am sure. I have not had the chance to drive one. I can't wait to buy my first car as traveling is at the top of my list of things to do. I would love nothing more than to take a cross country road trip and than expand internationally. I have to put all these languages I am learning to good use you know.

[Speaker 2] An international trip would be a great way to use your language skills.  Maybe you can start in Germany, rent a BMW, and drive through France into Spain?  I'd love to travel like that sometime in the future when I've got more spare time.

I'm a student. I study languages. I know different languages. I am almost fluent in Spanish. I am going to study French soon.

I would like to travel.

I play drums in a band on weekends. We play shows.My next show is two weeks from now.

I have not driven a BMW. I have never bought a car but would like to so I can travel.

I have a finance degree from Yale. I'm going back to school to study business. I am happy I returned to school. I think I will have more job opportunities. I like the idea of managing people.

My parents are wealthy bankers.

I don't have much time for fun.

I just bought my first car: a 2000 BMW.

I am busy. I plan my schedule.

I went to Yale but I would not like to return. I'd like to stay closer to home. I want to work while I attend school.

[Speaker 1] Where have you traveled to in the past?

[Speaker 2] I've done very little travel to be honest. I've had my nose to the grindstone just focusing on success so I could someday travel. But I've been out to Canada a few times.

[Speaker 1] I have heard that Canada is beautiful. I like your game plan of working hard now and traveling later. Where is the first place you would wish to go when you are done with school and work?

[Speaker 2] It is. I love it in winter. The first place I'd like to go is Greece. I've always loved Greek beliefs and culture; not to mention the food is supposed to be amazing!

[Speaker 1] Oh I would love to go to Greece as well. Talk about an amazing culture. I may have to attempt my hand at learning Greek next.

[Speaker 2] I've studied a little bit, in preparation you know, but with my current schedule I just don't have a lot of time to commit to it.

[Speaker 1] I can understand that. If you aren't careful, you will burn yourself out. Do will really have earned a vacation by the time you get around to taking one.

[Speaker 2] That's the plan. I hope to be able to take a few years to just travel and discover the world and much of what it has to offer. I feel it's required for my future growth.

[Speaker 1] Again, your plan sounds amazing! I am sure your parents are very proud of you.

[Speaker 2] They put a lot of pressure on me to succeed but also allow me to be myself. They're great and they've helped me along the way. I wouldn't be here if not for them and I merely wish to honor that.

[Speaker 1] That is great to hear. I have a lot of respect for my parents as well and enjoy when others have the same. I always try to honor my parents.

[Speaker 2] It's the least we can do for those who've brought us into this world and given us a chance to experience life.

I would like to travel.

I would like to travel to Greece. I would like to learn to speak Greek. I like the Greek culture.

I have respect for my parents. I try to honor my parents in my actions.

My parents are wealthy bankers.

I would like to travel. My parents make me work for things. My family allows me to be myself. I try to honor my parents in my actions.

I just bought my first car: a 2000 BMW.

I am busy. I plan my schedule.

I do not travel much. I have been to Canada a few times. I would like to visit Greece. I love the culture in Greece. I like Greek food. I have studied the Greek language a little. I would like to travel the world for a few years.

[Speaker 1] I know you don't travel much now, but did your family going on vacations when you were growing up?

[Speaker 2] yes we used to travel fairly often, we would go to canada a lot

[Speaker 1] That sounds like a lot of fun. What part of Canada would you visit?

[Speaker 2] mostly toronto but i have been to ontario and montreal too. would you like to travel to canada?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I would. I've heard they have some great national parks. Have you visited Banff?

[Speaker 2] no but i have heard amazing things. i love the outdoors

[Speaker 1] How is school going for you? Have you decided what you want to study?

[Speaker 2] yes i am studying business i hope to run my own company one day

[Speaker 1] That sounds awesome! What type of business would you like to get into?

[Speaker 2] anything really. to be in business you cant be picky

[Speaker 1] You're right, there is a lot of opportunity out there. When do you think you'll visit Greece?

[Speaker 2] hopefully soon, i love being there

I would like to travel.

My parents are wealthy bankers.

I just bought my first car: a 2000 BMW.

I am busy. I plan my schedule.

I have a family that used to love travelling. I have been to Toronto, Ontario and Montreal in Canada. I have never been to Baniff in Canada. I have been to Greece.

[Speaker 1] My parents revealed to me that I have some family members in Montreal Canada !

[Speaker 2] Oh wow, maybe you can visit them sometimes.  I love Montreal, such a beautiful city.

[Speaker 1] I would like to. I'm not sure how much snow I can handle though so I should probably go in summer.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, the weather can be a drawback.  I don't particularly care for snow myself, but you would enjoy the summer I think.  There are some beautiful parks and outdoor spaces in that area.

[Speaker 1] what would you recommend that I try to see while I'm there?

[Speaker 2] There's a park on the North side of the city that you'll definitely want to see.  They do some outdoor concerts there when the weather cooperates.

[Speaker 1] that sounds like a lot of fun. I'm going to have to contact my family members and get it all set up.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I think you ought to.  If you're still planning to take French lessons get a few of thus under your belt before you travel there.  You might get some real time practice with the language in that area.

[Speaker 1] Oh that's a very good point. I didn't even think of that.

[Speaker 2] Do you get to do much taveling with your band or do you stick to local venues?

[Speaker 1] we've traveled a little ways away from home, but not very far yet.

[Speaker 2] I guess it's wise to stick to the area where you actually have a fan base.  I have a feeling you'll get more and more opportunities to play farther away in the future.

[Speaker 1] Have you played any other video games recently?

[Speaker 2] I have been.  Just the other day I started playing "Kingdom Come: Deliverance."  Have you heard of it?

[Speaker 1] I haven't! I'm still obsessed with Call of Duty. Maybe that one could be my next video game.

[Speaker 2] It's a little bit like Skyrim if it were set in the actual Middle Ages and no magic.  Since you like Fallout, I think you will like it.  I wish I was better at COD, but I just die so fast!

[Speaker 1] Haha that used to be me in COD, until I started playing daily and getting good. I'll give that game a try! Is gaming one of your favourite things to do?

[Speaker 2] I don't always have time, but I do enjoy it when I can.  I guess I'm just so focused on my boyfriend.  Do you have a significant other and is it serious?

[Speaker 1] I guess you're a teacher too, so not a lot of time off. Yes! My husband and I are about to celebrate our one year anniversary! Going to New York. When are you planning on getting married?

[Speaker 2] Congratulations!  I bet you will have so much fun!  We are going to get married in July, but it's going to be a small event. We wanted to make sure we could still enjoy our vacation, but not take off any work.

[Speaker 1] Wow that's coming up fast, how exciting! Summer weddings are my favourite since they're so pretty. How did you meet your boyfriend?

[Speaker 2] There was a festival downtown a couple years ago.  He saw my car and asked me about it.  Then we spent the rest of the time together.  We really hit it off. How about your husband?

[Speaker 1] How romantic!! That's a good first meeting story. My husband and I met at the dog park. Our golden labs used to play together and I always thought he was cute. He eventually asked me for my number and we hit it off!

[Speaker 2] Awwww.  That is a beautiful story. We could write a book "Dogs and Cars: How we met our husbands!"  Is your husband into roleplaying like you are?

Donuts are my favorite food.

I like to action roleplaying events. I play Call of Duty every day.

I drive a ford pinto.

I am married. I have a husband. I have been married almost one year. I am going to New York.

Fries are my favorite food. I love to try new restaurants and dance for fun.

I went to college.

I have a maclaren. I like that car.

I have a boyfriend. I am getting married in July. I am going to go on vacation without taking time off work. I am going to have a small wedding.

I met my boyfriend a couple of years ago at a festival downtown, I hit it off with my boyfriend right away.

[Speaker 1] I am sending you a wedding planning book that was very useful to me.

[Speaker 2] did you incorporate your dogs into tje ceremmy?

[Speaker 1] That is a pretty good idea, Timing was a bit of an issue I think on that one. I like your curiosity. When the chemistry is right, I guess bring the dogs to the ceremony!

[Speaker 2] how do you think Ii can use my dogs in my ceremony?

[Speaker 1] I've seen it work sometimes with a basket attached, small, light, with rose pedals that slowly spill out or are scattered. Do you have thoughts about it?

[Speaker 2] interesting, Just on another topic, how re your labs doing?

[Speaker 1] They keep me exercised, that is for sure. They need to be walked daily, and it helps keep me active.

[Speaker 2] i like my dogs, but I wonde3r, should

[Speaker 1] That last sentence, looks a bit like experimental poetry? hehe. Maybe you could type your last text again more clearly. I like how much you love dogs.

[Speaker 2] I am sorry, what do you think of getting a daschund

[Speaker 1] That could work for some people, although the do have a shorter small build. I love having a dog to hike miles with sometimes. You considering a dachshund?

Donuts are my favorite food.

I drive a ford pinto.

I had a wedding. I used a book to help plan my wedding. My favorite weddings are summer weddings.

I met my husband at a dog park. I have a golden lab. My husband has a golden lab. I hike for miles with my dog sometimes.

I went to college.

I have a maclaren. I like that car.

I have dogs. I am thinking of getting a dachshund.

[Speaker 1] There is going to be a big event at the dog park this weekend, my favorite donut place is going to have a food truck there! It's a free event, would you want to come with me?

[Speaker 2] Oh, I'd love to! Tell me more about this donut place--what's so good about it?

[Speaker 1] They have a great selection and they make everything from scratch. What is your favorite type of donut??

[Speaker 2] Honestly, I'm pretty boring. I just like good ol' glazed donuts. How about yourself?

[Speaker 1] Glazed donuts are the best! I feel like I could eat a dozen of them sometimes. How is teaching going?

[Speaker 2] It's going pretty well. Kindergarteners can be exhausting sometimes, but it's an extremely rewarding job, and I feel very lucky to play an important role in these kids' formative years. You know, speaking of donuts, maybe I can bring some to class. I bet my kids will go crazy for them.

[Speaker 1] I'm sure they would! You could tell them all about the dog park. Maybe it will help you decide on what kind of dog to get.

[Speaker 2] That's a good point. Crowdsourcing opinions is great in and of itself, and likely even more entertaining when I'm sourcing my opinion from a crowd of 5- and 6-year olds.

[Speaker 1] Do your kids ever give you recommendations on the next video game you should play?

[Speaker 2] Not really, and only because I haven't told them much about my video game habits. I'm afraid Call of Duty is a bit too violent for kids this age. Now, if I taught 5th grade, I'm sure I'd share, and I'm sure they'd give me some excellent suggestions.

[Speaker 1] I guess you're right. Does your boyfriend play video games with you? I'm still trying to get my husband to play with me.

[Speaker 2] He does! We play multiplayer together. Maybe you should bribe your husband, haha. Take him to his favorite restaurant if he gets a certain number of kills per game.

Donuts are my favorite food.

I drive a ford pinto.

I love glazed donuts.

I am a kindergarten teacher. I like to paint. I love my job.

I went to college.

I have a maclaren. I like that car.

I am very familiar with fallout. I used to play fallout. I started the game Kingdom Come: Deliverance. I die too fast to be good at Call of Duty. I play video games when I have time. I play video games with my boyfriend.

I like glazed donuts.

[Speaker 1] I know you love donuts, so I'm wondering if you'd like to go to the dunut shop?  Maybe we can pick up a dozen for your Kindergartners.

[Speaker 2] I love fries, but my boyfriend loves donuts too. He says that's a great idea. Does your husband love donuts too?

[Speaker 1] He likes apple fritters which are kind of like donuts, but I'm the donut lover in our house! Well, and our dog. Our dog loves donuts, too.

[Speaker 2] Nice I love dogs too, do you have a dachshund?

[Speaker 1] Nope, a golden. She's a sweetie. We bond over our love of glazed donuts, lol.

[Speaker 2] I love glazed donuts too. Do you think a dachshund would love donuts as much as me and my boyfriend?

[Speaker 1] Haha, probably so. I find that my golden will eat or try to eat anything she sees us eating. I'm guessing dachshunds are pretty similar.

[Speaker 2] Nice, do you think a dachshund would enjoy fries as well?

[Speaker 1] Definitely. And probably milkshakes, too. Just not chocolate, since it's poisonous to dogs and all.

[Speaker 2] Does your golden enjoy fries?

[Speaker 1] Yep. She stole a whole box of them from my husband last weekend. It was half sad and half hilarious.

[Speaker 2] That sounds like me playing Call of Duty! Do you play any video games?


I play with my friends on the playground.

I love to sing songs from the movie frozen.

I am in the third grade.

Mickey mouse is my favorite character.

I currently work for a watch dealer.

My dream car is a rolls royce ghost.

I like to use the swings and monkey bars.

Show tunes are memorable.

I am in elementary school.

Pluto is great, but I like another individual better.

[Speaker 2] Sounds fun, yes I do! Shoes and watches are my favorites to shop for.

[Speaker 1] Frozen songs are the best what songs are your favorite?

[Speaker 2] Do you want to build a snowman!

[Speaker 1] Oh gosh of course! Do you go to school?

[Speaker 2] No, I'm just a watch dealer. My family do not like it

[Speaker 1] Third grade has been awesome. Oh no that stinks.

[Speaker 2] Third grade was so fun! Good for you.

[Speaker 1] Do you like mickey mouse?

[Speaker 2] I would like him more if he got me a rolls royce ghost

[Speaker 1] That would be cool. What is your favorite toy on the playground?

[Speaker 2] I like to swing on the swing sets. How about you?

I am 20 years old.

I like cartman.

I like to shop for shoes and watches. I like playground.

I had fun in third grade.

I like the swing sets.

[Speaker 1] What is the last watch you bought?

[Speaker 2] a vintage Bulova Valjoux 23. That is an old model of watch from a famous maker. It's not made any more. What a beauty! I was really luck to get it. How's third grade treating you this week?

[Speaker 1] That sounds like an expensive watch? How much was it? School is OK. Recess is my favorite part!

[Speaker 2] It wasn't too bad, about $750, and in moderately good condition. What do you play at recess? I hope kids still like to play outside and not just be on screens. I had so much fun at recess when I was in 3rd grade.

[Speaker 1] That is a lot of money! I only get $25 a week for allowance from my parents. We do play outside on the playground and on the blacktop. I like going on the swings and playing kickball and basketball.

[Speaker 2] I liked kickball A LOT at your age. Wow, $25 a week!!!!!!!!! I only got $1/week at that age. Wow. What do you do with your allowance, generally!

[Speaker 1] Only a dollar? I could only buy one candy bar with that. My parents make me save $10 of it, and I buy snacks and drinks from the school vending machine with the rest.

[Speaker 2] If you don't mind advice, I'd save more of it. Either long term for important things like college, or even for toys or video games or whatever -- soda and snacks are a waste.

[Speaker 1] Is buying soda and snacks really a waste? I like them, though. Maybe I'll save money for when we go to Disney World this summer. I can't wait to meet Mickey and Minnie Mouse!

[Speaker 2] Wow, Disney world! You'll have so much fun!

[Speaker 1] I hope so! Have you ever been there?

[Speaker 2] No, I've never had a chance. What rides to you want to go on?

I am 8 years old. I like Mickey Mouse. I like the playground.   I like the swings and playing kickball and basketball.  I have a lot of friends.

I like Frozen songs.

I get a $25 allowance from my parents each week.My parents make me save $10 of my allowance each week. I buy snacks and drinks with the rest.

I might save money for when we go to Disney World this summer.

I am 20 years old.

I like cartman.

I've never been to Disney World.

[Speaker 1] Where did you travel to when you were younger?

[Speaker 2] I visited a lot of civil war battlefields like manassas and gettysburg because my father was a big civil war buff.

[Speaker 1] That sounds fun. What did you like the best about 3rd grade?

[Speaker 2] I liked reading more challenging books and making friendships with other kids. Do you have any friends in the 3rd grade?

[Speaker 1] I have a lot of friends in my grade. Do you have a lot of friends being 20?

[Speaker 2] I have about four or five close friends, but it's harder to make friends at this age, especially when you're not in school. I've been thinking about joining a kickball team to make more friends.

[Speaker 1] Can you join a kickball team without being in school? I play kickball, but I play at school. Do you play basketball?

[Speaker 2] There are kickball teams for grown-up, although we can't play as often because we have to schedule around people's jobs. I used to play basketball when I was younger, but not anymore. Are you good at basketball?

[Speaker 1] I'm okay at basketball, but I am better at kickball.

[Speaker 2] I like kickball because there is not as much running as there is in basketball. I do not like to run.

[Speaker 1] I like to run, but I'm not very good at running and dribbling the basketball. That's why I like kickball better.

[Speaker 2] Are any of your kickball buddies going with you to disneyland this summer?

I am 8 years old. I like Mickey Mouse. I like the playground.   I like the swings and playing kickball and basketball. I am better at kickball than basketball. I like to run. I'm not good at dribbling. I have a lot of friends.

I like Frozen songs.

I am 20 years old.

I like cartman.  I like to shop for shoes and watches. I am a watch dealer. I do not go to school. My family does not like my job.

I liked reading books and making friends in grade 3. I had fun in third grade. I like the swing sets. I liked kickball a lot when I was younger. I only got an allowance of $1 per week when I was in third grade.

I've never been to Disney World.

I travelled to civil war battlefields.

I have few friends. I might join a kickball team. I used to play basketball. I don't like to run.

[Speaker 1] Did you find a kickball team to join?

[Speaker 2] Yes, our local park district offers one.  We start next week

[Speaker 1] Do you know anyone who's going to be on the team?  Either way this should be a good way to make new friends.

[Speaker 2] I know one other person, so that should be fun.  I can't wait to meet the other people that like the sports I like!  How's school going for you?

[Speaker 1] I am doing alright in school but now I'm struggling in math.  We just got introduced to long division and I don't really understand it.

[Speaker 2] Oh, long division is tough at first, but keep at it and you'll get it.  New things are hard to learn sometimes.  Is there a friend or someone that can help you ?

[Speaker 1] I tried to ask my parents but I didn't understand what they said to me and they started arguing with each other so I left.  Maybe I'll ask my friend Josh at school tomorrow.  He's pretty good at math.

[Speaker 2] Oh wow.  That shouldn't have sparked an argument.  Sorry to hear that.  But yea, I'd say talk to Josh.  Maybe he can give you a different way of looking at it than your teacher explained and it will be easier for you to understand. Have you played kickball recently?

[Speaker 1] We played it at recess today.  It was so fun.  I only got to kick once but I got a double so I was happy with that.  How many times a week is your team going to play?

[Speaker 2] Just once a week for games, but I'm sure our team will get together for practices when we can.  Everyone works or goes to school so we have to work around those schedules.

[Speaker 1] Yes, I can understand.  At school we have a hard time getting everyone organized to play at recess or lunch, and we all have the same schedule.  What position do you want to play in the field?  I like to play first base.

[Speaker 2] I'll play any position,  but I think I like catcher best.  First base is good too.

I am 8 years old. I like Mickey Mouse. I like the playground. I like the swings and playing kickball and basketball. I am better at kickball than basketball. I like to play first base at kickball.  I got a double in my kickball game. I like to run. I'm not good at dribbling. I have a lot of friends.

I like Frozen songs.

I like third grade. I am in third grade. I am struggling with math. I am not good at long division. My friend Josh is good at math.

I live with both my parents. My parents argue a lot.

I am 20 years old.

I travelled to civil war battlefields.

I have few friends. I used to play basketball. I don't like to run. I joined a local kickball team. My kickball team starts next week. I love kickball. I know one person on my new team. My kickball team has one game a week. My kickball teammates have busy schedules. I like to play catcher when playing kickball.

[Speaker 1] Now that you are 20, an adult, have you thought about visiting Disney World since you never did as a child?

[Speaker 2] Yeah I think I might go next summer. I have been pretty busy with kickball right now.

[Speaker 1] Will you tag along your friend in the team?

[Speaker 2] Yeah my friend Joey is pretty good at kickball. Maybe he would like to go to Disney World.

[Speaker 1] I guess that would be fun for you two. And btw, what kind of job do you do?

[Speaker 2] I have a part time job at Arby’s right now. I think it’s pretty fun plus I get free sandwiches. Do you like Arby’s?

[Speaker 1] Yeah, I do. I don't get why your parents do not like your job. The one dollar allowance was quite mean. How did you manage through?

[Speaker 2] I did alright. I didn’t have a lot of things I wanted to buy. My parents didn’t like me selling watches so I got a real job but I still sell watches on the side.

[Speaker 1] Do you still read books currently?

[Speaker 2] Just a little bit. I got the new Steven King novel. It’s about talking to the dead and the guy is a detective.

[Speaker 1] Ahaa, is it an easy one for an 8 year old to grasp?

[Speaker 2] Maybe it is a little too advanced for you. But who knows maybe you would like it.

[Speaker 2] Lot's of good coffee in that City. I was mostly awed by the building, itself. What a space to be in!. It was great to see many of the old Masters, but I especially liked the Egypt collection. What are you going to Paris for?

[Speaker 1] Wow! I'm super excited! I'm going there for a school trip. What better way to learn but to go and see it myself! My trip to Spain was awesome, but Paris has a different vibe that I want to experience. Are you not busy with school? I'm surprise you get to travel a lot.

[Speaker 2] Yes school is very consuming, but only another 8 months to get working. I haven't really travelled alot. I went to Europe once with a friend and that's about it. The dog keeps me from straying too far

[Speaker 2] I really enjoyed Paris! How soon is your trip to Paris?

[Speaker 1] Still a couple months away. It's a study trip for foreign art and dance.

[Speaker 2] Oh, that sounds cool! Are you going with a group then?

[Speaker 1] Yes. It's a school trip. Most everyone in my class will be going. I really hope the trip will bring us to see the home of Josephine Baker.

[Speaker 2] That would be interesting. Since your trip revolves around art and dance, I assume you will be visiting some museums?

[Speaker 1] Yes our first stop is the Musee d'Orsay.

[Speaker 2] Oh, I went there when I was in Paris! I think you'll really enjoy it. What other places will you be visiting?

[Speaker 1] We'll obviously be stopping at the Eiffel Tower, as well as a few other museums. Though I'm also super excited to see the Paris Opera Ballet School.

[Speaker 1] Yes, I love art and I am planning on visiting the louvre! I am very excited to get the opportunity to visit such an amazing and interesting place. Have you been to the home of Josephine Baker or the Eiffel Tower? There are so many places I want to see, I hope I have enough time for everything!

[Speaker 2] how long are you there for you need 2 weeks at least to see the whole city. i have been to the eifel tower it is huge

[Speaker 1] I will be there for 9 days on a school trip. It will be a busy vacation as we are going to try to fit as much in as possible. Will I be ok getting by without speaking French?

[Speaker 2] yes many people in france speak english you will be fine but i would suggest you learn a little bit

[Speaker 1] Good idea. I will try. Thank you. How is school going? Are you looking forward to graduating soon?

[Speaker 1] Not yet, but I plan to go soon. I really want to see the Eiffel tower and thhe museum Musee d'Orsay.

[Speaker 2] The Eiffel tower was amazing, you can see right across Paris from up there.

[Speaker 1] That sounds great! What art did you enjoy most when you visited the Louvre?

[Speaker 2] All of the art was god but the best for me was building itself, it is such an unusual shape.

[Speaker 1] Oh of course. The pyramid is an architectural master piece in its own right. What did you think of the Mona Lisa?

[Speaker 2] It was smaller than I expected. For some reason I thought it was this enormous painting.

[Speaker 1] I agree, I would think it would be huge. I guess its reputation is the biggest thing. I will definitely see it as well as the  Madonna and child with John the baptist. I hope its as big as its reputation.

[Speaker 2] Yes those ones you will enjoy. They have a certain overwhelming presence when you are there.

[Speaker 1] I'm looking so forward to going! I just hope my French is up to par by then. It would be awful not to be able to talk with anyone in French.

[Speaker 2] How long have you been learning French? I found the best way to get good at it was to be thrown straight into it. For example, going to France and trying to talk to the people there.

[Speaker 1] The previous coach was the father of another player and my best friend. I now am in charge of the team to help bring things into a natural calmness like before when he was here. Things seems to be going well.

[Speaker 2] I'm glad things seem to be going well. What is your baseball team's name?

[Speaker 1] Our baseball team name is Pirates. The children like the idea of doing what they want so as a team we decided that the name will be of people with the most freedom and that happened to be a pirate.

[Speaker 2] That's an interesting philosophy for the naming of a team. Do you plan on having any more children?

[Speaker 1] I don't plan on having any more children. I wanna focus on the kids I have right now.

[Speaker 2] That's a noble sentiment. I have my hands full with my grandchildren regularly.

I drink wine every night.

I drive a minivan.

I drink a lot of coffee.

I am not looking to have more children.

I like to sew.

[Speaker 1] What sort of things do you like to sew?

[Speaker 2] I like to sew anything that I can! Pillowcases, quilts, designs on shirts and underwear. Ribbons for cancer survivors. It keeps me busy in my retirement. How is your Little League baseball league playing?

[Speaker 1] It is going great except that the parents like to run things to much.

[Speaker 2] I think that is normal. Parents are usually so proud of their kids playing abilities, even if they aren't that good haha. Which one of your 5 sons play on the team?

[Speaker 1] Just the 5 year old's and they really like it.  Now tell me more about yourself. What type of cancer did you have?

[Speaker 2] I am a survivor of breast cancer. I have been in remission for 30 years.

[Speaker 1] Wow, congratulations on being in remission for so long!  My husband is in remission from lymphoma so I can understand a little about it.  There is always fear that it will come back.

[Speaker 2] I find that the best way to put the fear of relapse to the back of your mind is just to focus on the small everyday things that make you happy, such as your little league and your sons.

[Speaker 1] Yes, keeping busy is what really helps.

[Speaker 2] I am sure with 5 sons you keep plenty busy! My grandchildren also keep me very busy as well. Are your twins lookalike twins?

I drink wine every night.

I drive a minivan.

I drink a lot of coffee.

I am not looking to have more children. I like to keep busy.

I have a husband in remission.

I like to sew.

I am retired. I enjoy my retirement. I am a breast cancer survivor. I do not focus on fear.

[Speaker 1] My son won his game at Little League.

[Speaker 2] That's wonderful! Is his team doing well this season?

[Speaker 1] Yes, his team is doing very well. I mean they have only won one game but they are learning the fundamentals they’re getting along and they are playing the right way so yes they’re doing well

[Speaker 2] That is good, at such a young age it's important for them to learn to work together and get a good foundation.  My grandson's team hasn't won any of their games this season, but he's so happy that it doesn't even matter.

[Speaker 1] Well if you gone by our families no one will worry about the future of baseball in America…

[Speaker 2] Baseball will also be around in America, plenty of people love it and the kids that are having fun today will get more and more competitive as they get older.  I just hope I'm around to watch my grandson's high school games.

[Speaker 1] Well you believe in Heaven don’t you? I mean whether or not you physically on this planet you are going to be watching your grandson play baseball

[Speaker 2] Yes, of course.  But I would like to be there in person to congratulate them and let them know of my support.

[Speaker 1] I wonder if they know how much we really love them? Can they even comprehend?

[Speaker 2] I think that deep down they know, even if they aren't yet mature enough to express it.  I think about how I feel about my own grandparents who have long since passed and I believe that they must feel similarly.

[Speaker 1] Yes you are so right! What I wouldn’t give to go fishing with my grandfather just one more afternoon… he passed away 18 years ago now.

[Speaker 2] Yes, that is why it is important to savor every day.  Each moment, no matter how mundane it feels at the time, is a special memory in the making.

I drink wine every night.

I have 5 sons and a husband. My five children are 16, 14, 8, 5 and 5. My two youngest boys are twins. I like having teenaged kids. I am the coach of my kids' baseball team. I have a 5 year old playing baseball. My sons little league team is playing well this season. My sons team is learning the fundamentals of baseball.

I drive a minivan.

I believe in Heaven.

I used to fish with my grandfather. My grandfather passed away 18 years ago.

I like to sew.

I am a grandparent. I have four grandchildren. My grandchildren are 10, 12, 15 and 17. I have a grandson who plays baseball. My grandson loves to play Little League.

I believe in Heaven. I want to be alive when my grandson plays high school baseball.

I loved and admired my grandparents growing up.

[Speaker 1] What is your absolute favorite thing to do with your grandchildren?

[Speaker 2] Besides baseball, he likes going to the arcade. Can you believe those even exist anymore? I used to love going in the 80's.

[Speaker 1] Oh wow I had no idea they were around anymore. I remember going to them all the time. The one in the bowling alley was always my favorite

[Speaker 2] I remember my local bowling alley. They had the best pizza in town, but the place stank because of all their filthy shoes.

[Speaker 1] I always had my own bowling shoes when I bowled. Never wanted to wear ones other people did. Did you ever bowl?

[Speaker 2] I used to be pretty good in my day. I was the best at mini golf too. Now, I can barely fart without throwing out my back.

[Speaker 1] Oh that's hilarious. I know that pain. Having 5 kids is not good for the back. How many kids do you have?

[Speaker 2] I have two myself. If you can call them kids anymore. They're already older than dirt! How are your kids doing?

[Speaker 1] They're doing really well. My oldest gets his license next week!

[Speaker 2] Oh wow! You planning on getting them a car or letting them use the family one?
