[Speaker 1] Pretty good. I love playing board games, do you?

[Speaker 2] I do. What is your favorite?

[Speaker 1] Definitely monopoly. I am an elementary teacher, and my kids do too.

[Speaker 2] Monopoly is the best game, I agree. What grade are you teaching?

[Speaker 1] I teach 3rd grade, my parents were teachers too. I got it from them.

[Speaker 2] Teachers are wonderful. I have a cousin that teaches high school.

[Speaker 1] That's nice. I vacation at the beach once a year to just decompress.

[Speaker 2] Teachers are wonderful. I have a cousin that teaches high school.

I love music. I prefer live music.

[Speaker 1] I took my class to a museum for a field trip.

[Speaker 2] oh that's so fun! what kind of museum did you take them to?

[Speaker 1] We went to our local children's museum. They have a lot of neat hands on activities. They have a science section and a physic section.

[Speaker 2] That's awesome! I bet they had a blast and learned a whole bunch too! My husband and I went to our local science museum last year and really enjoyed it. So, have you planned your beach vacation for this year yet?

[Speaker 1] They loved it! They're already asking to go back. I can't lie I can't wait to go back either. No I haven't yet.

[Speaker 2] I would be the same way! Do you always vacation at the same beach, or go to different areas each year? My favorite beaches on on the Outer Banks in NC. Have you ever been? Some are so secluded, and you can drive a 4wheel drive vehicle on them with a pass! It's very fun!!

[Speaker 1] The Outer Banks is my favorite place to go on vacation on the beach. I also like the florida panhandle very much.

[Speaker 2] Right?! It's the best! I've never been to a Florida panhandle beach before. Actually the only beach I think I've ever been on in Florida was in Miami. It was beautiful though. I want to plan a trip to FL for next March. Swimming with the manatees is a dream of mine. Have you ever done that?

[Speaker 1] No, I haven't but Ive always wanted to swim with  dolphins. I've been to Miami but not to the beach.

[Speaker 2] I'd love to swim with dolphins too...hopefully some day I'll get to! Oh - I wanted to tell you...my last game of monopoly lasted for 3 hours!!!! It was insane. But, good news! I found a Monopoly card game that is so much fun. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys Monopoly! You can run thru an entire game in like 15 minutes, and it is just like playing actual Monopoly. Have you ever heard of such a thing?!

[Speaker 1] Oh my gosh that sounds fun! How do you play the card game? It sounds like it would be very fun for a group of friends or during a birthday party.

[Speaker 2] It is very fun with a group, and even with just 2 people. It's called Monopoly Deal. The instructions are pretty simple and easy to learn quickly. I got it from Amazon for like $8. Definitely worth it! I've gotta run for now though. It was great catching up with you again, and I hope we can chat again real soon! Say hi to those 3rd graders for me! lol

[Speaker 1] I found this new song I think you'd love!

[Speaker 2] What is it? Is it new or old?

[Speaker 1] It's an older song. Do you prefer older music or newer?

[Speaker 2] I like old and new and any genre too!

[Speaker 1] The song is Imagine by John Lennon. It makes me think of when I swam with dolphins. Are there dolphins at the beaches in North Carolina?

[Speaker 2] Oh yes! I love imagine by John Lennon. I was at the beach today and saw several dolphins. They are such beautiful creatures.

[Speaker 1] My students and I were talking about students in class today. Several of the kids say that dolphins are their favorite animals.

[Speaker 2] Those are smart kids. How many kids do you have in class?

[Speaker 1] I have 15! We are discussing marine animals right now. Aside from dolphins, what other animals do you enjoy when you visit the beach? Maybe we can talk about it tomorrow.

[Speaker 2] I like all the animals and mammals. They are all impressive in their own right.

[Speaker 1] You are so right!

[Speaker 2] If you are ever in NC, I can show the best beaches to visit.

I teach 3rd grade students. My parents were also teachers. I have 15 students. I am teaching about marine animals.

[Speaker 1] I am planning a visit to North Carolina

[Speaker 2] That's awesome! What part are you going to?

[Speaker 1] Actually that's what I wanted to get your advice on! I want to go to the beach, but I'm not sure what's the most relaxing spot.

[Speaker 2] The outerbanks is absolutely amazing! I would go there every time I went on vacation if I could.

[Speaker 1] Do you think it's worth staying a whole week? I want to relax a bit, but I am afraid I'll get bored. Though maybe I'll just sleep the whole time!

[Speaker 2] You won't get bored, I promise! There is so much to do there. You can always relax on the beach, but if you decide thats enough for the day there's all kind of activities to do.

[Speaker 1] That's good to hear. I hope I'm able to see some dolphins! Oh, another question -- is it safe if I travel there by myself and rent a cottage? I'm worried about staying in a house alone.

[Speaker 2] I can't remember if I've seen dolphins while I've been there, but to be honest I haven't particulary gone on any tours or anything. I think it would be plenty safe for you to do so!

[Speaker 1] I assumed as much, but just wanted to be sure! It will be my only vacation this year and I want to make it worth it!

[Speaker 2] I hope you have a fabulous time! It is so relaxing there.

[Speaker 1] Definitely. I'm so glad I know an expert! I was hesitant to go to OB again but your recommendation has helped me decide. You should be a tour guide!

[Speaker 2] Haha, thank you for the compliment! I only do it for those around me!

[Speaker 1] I have booked my trip to Outerbanks like you suggested! I'm so excited to go. I really appreciate your recommendation.

[Speaker 2] Thank you! How long do you plan to stay there?

[Speaker 1] I am going to be there for four days.  Do you have any recommendations for sights to see of places to eat?

[Speaker 2] I think there may be good dolphin watching, and as for food, the surf-and-turf at a certain hotel should be right up your alley!

[Speaker 1] That sounds great.  I would love to see some dolphins.  Do you go to the Outerbanks very often?

[Speaker 2] I don't have too much time or money, so I go there only yearly or so, but I don't lack the enthusiasm to go!

[Speaker 1] Well, I am looking forward to seeing how the North Carolina beaches compare to the Florida beaches.  I also hope to take lots of pictures and some souvenirs to share with my students.

[Speaker 2] Oh great! Since I haven't gone on any tours before, I'm particularly excited to hear about that. I so miss snorkeling.

[Speaker 1] I've never tried snorkling.  That sounds like fun.  Hopefully you can go again soon!

[Speaker 2] Thanks for the concern! In the meantime, what are your thoughts on a Monopoly night in the near future?

[Speaker 1] I love Monopoly!  We used to have marathons when I was a kid.  We would play all night....lol

[Speaker 2] Seeing my rivals get the "Do not pass go, do not collect $200" card always brings joy to my face:)

[Speaker 1] It is a joke, well, sort of about the watermelons on my head. I ate watermelon one 4th of July and after drinking too much beer, I put an empty rind on my head and walked around for a few hours looking like an idiot. I did make many people laugh that day so it was worth it. Who or what is Marlon Webb Vine?

[Speaker 2] Vine is a social media platform between 2014 and 2016 Marlon Webb is a influencer on the app

[Speaker 1] Oh! Thanks for letting me know. I will check out the app. I need to start wearing a helmet and I was wondering where you bought your shiny red and blue one?

[Speaker 2] The app doesn't exist anymore unfortunately but TikTok is an alternative today. I got mine off Amazon.

[Speaker 1] I will check out Amazon for the helmet and I really like TikTok. It is a fun way to spend a bit of time. I work 2 jobs so my free time is limited!

[Speaker 2] Tiktok is great but it takes up so much of my time. Who's your favorite Rap artist.

[Speaker 1] Seven of them are. It is John, my youngest brother's, birthday. Have you ever met him?

[Speaker 2] I think I might have but you have so many brothers it’s hard keeping track of them all. Is he the one you got drunk with on the 4th of July?

[Speaker 1] Fair enough! No, that was Edward. He is always a good time.

[Speaker 2] He’s the one that helped you adopt Charlie, right? I remember talking to him about that dog before you got him.

[Speaker 1] Yes! Great memory. He is a major dog lover, as am I now!

[Speaker 2] Oh, I wanted to let you know I’m going to that place that sells those homegrown watermelons next week. I know you love them and I wa

[Speaker 1] If I give you money, will you get me some? Their melons are delicious!

[Speaker 2] Yeah they are. You got to try making a helmet out of one again that was so funny.

[Speaker 1] I get the funniest stares from people!

[Speaker 2] You need to take some time off from your two jobs so we can do stuff like that more!

I have a dog named Charlie. I am a dog lover.

I don't wear helmets. I wear watermelons on my head. I love homegrown watermelons.

I don't like to act unladylike.

I have 2 brothers.

I work at a steakhouse.

[Speaker 1] I was glad we were able to meet each other at the steakhouse. Looking forward to getting those watermelons.

[Speaker 2] I was happy to meet as well! I hope you come back again! I am sure you will love the watermelon too. You could share the watermelon with your dog, Charlie.

[Speaker 1] Yes!  Watermelon is good for animals too!  Been on your bike lately?

[Speaker 2] Yes! I drove my motorcycle to my last waitressing shift. It was a blast. You should come for a ride sometime!

[Speaker 1] I'm up for that for sure!  I'll try anything once!  I'd even go skydiving. How bout you?

[Speaker 2] Cool. I am sure you would love the ride. And, yes I would try sky diving. I love adventure. Let's plan a day and do it.

[Speaker 1] With my jobs it might be hard, but yes, it's something I'd make time for.  Do you know anywhere we could go?  I'll have to do some online research!

[Speaker 2] I do not know a place off the top of my head. But I will ask around at work and see if anyone suggests a certain company.

[Speaker 1] Great!  I love adventures.  This is exciting.  My brothers will be so jealous

[Speaker 2] My brothers will be jealous as well!! Should we invite our brothers and make it a fun family and friend outing?

[Speaker 1] Sure!  The more the merrier they say.  I wonder how many we can take at a time.  So many things to think about.

[Speaker 2] I guess our best plan of action would be to find a safe company to use and ask them those questions. Once we know how many people a plain can take and what day we are both available, we can bring it up to the brothers.

[Speaker 1] I found a great vineyard that has affordable prices for wine tasting.  Have you found anything on your part yet?

[Speaker 2] I've been having trouble finding anything so I'm glad that you did.  When are you available to check the place out?

[Speaker 1] I'm available pretty much all day next week so I'll check out then. Not Wednesday though, because my friend Vivian is having a birthday party.

[Speaker 2] Sounds great! Are you excited for her birthday party?

[Speaker 1] Of course! It's her 100 year old birthday party so it'll be so cool! I'm not sure what present to bring her though, do you have any suggestion?

[Speaker 2] wow!  I'm really not sure what a 100 year old would like to be honest haha.  Does she have any family or friends that you can ask?

[Speaker 1] No me neither! She doesn't seem to have any other friends since she outlives them, but she does have some children who are going to celebrate with her. I met her really randomly when I was walking by the park, she's an eccentric person haha

[Speaker 2] i can imagine haha.  Maybe her children can put some kind of a wish list together.

[Speaker 1] Maybe, but I think her wish list must be quite crazy since when we chat she often talks about wanting a flying car or a spaceship to Venus. So yeah I'm really not sure about what to get her.

[Speaker 2] hm hopefully she lives long enough to see those kinds of things actually exist haha.  she does sound like a really hard person to get a gift for.

[Speaker 1] Yeah for sure. And how's your day by the way? Have you done anything interesting lately?

[Speaker 2] it's been okay.  I just got out of work and now it's storming badly.  I'm scared that the hail is going to damage my car.

[Speaker 1] Hello how are you doing

[Speaker 2] Great! Just cannot sleep. Why are you up so late?

[Speaker 1] Just surfing the web looking at dog videos lol

[Speaker 2] Dog videos are fun, cats too. I like the dog memes.

[Speaker 1] My brother and I love those too! My sisters love the cat ones

[Speaker 2] Ah, dogs for boys cats for girls, huh?

[Speaker 1] Lol seems that way... About to raid my fridge.... Tacos or pizza?

[Speaker 2] Why pizza of course. Well depends on what toppings.

[Speaker 1] Black olives and mushrooms.... Think I'll go tacos lol

[Speaker 2] Yeah there are no anchovies! Anchovy makes me a cat person I guess.

[Speaker 1] Bravo to you... Pretty sure I've never tried anchovies... Yuck

[Speaker 2] They are yummy salty little fish. You should try them.

[Speaker 1] Maybe I will try some day... Just not today

[Speaker 2] Well that's a good plan. Variety is the spice of life.

I have a brother and sisters. I love dog memes.

I don't like anchovies.

I like dog memes.

I prefer pizza to tacos. I think anchovies are yummy.

I'm a professional wrestler.

[Speaker 1] My brother came over the other day. He's considering getting a dog. He got inspired by all the dog memes I've been sharing with him.

[Speaker 2] We've finally won him over to the dog side.

[Speaker 1] I read the task instructions, i'm ready for the chat

[Speaker 2] What are you talking about?

[Speaker 1] Well, i said my brother is planning to get a dog.

[Speaker 2] Yeah you mentioned. Any idea what breed he plans on getting?

[Speaker 1] Might get a Shiba. Cuz all i shared with him are DOGE memes

[Speaker 2] Cool. Do share pictures when he get the dog

[Speaker 1] Will do. Maybe i'll create meme templates from our dog next time. So, You still haven't told me the craziest pro wrestling moment yet!

[Speaker 2] there are lots of moments to share, I'll tell you all when we see

[Speaker 1] Okay. You have any idea on adopting any dogs?

[Speaker 2] It's a pretty simple process, just visit an animal shelter

I don't like anchovies.

My brother is planning to get a dog.

I like dog memes.

I'm a professional wrestler.

[Speaker 1] I want to create a comics book with the future dog of my brother

[Speaker 2] That sounds really fun, how do you imagine your brothers 'soon to be' dog will be like?

[Speaker 1] I think he'll be really small and cute with a big attitude! I love dogs so much I'm excited to get to meet him.

[Speaker 2] It will be loads of fun. Im thinking about getting a dog later in the year, maybe after summer.

[Speaker 1] Oh really? That's awesome. Have you thought about what kind of dog you'd like?

[Speaker 2] A friend has a Yorkipoo and her boyfriend has a Rottweiler, recently they've started to get quite friendly so were hoping there will be puppies.

[Speaker 1] Oh that's so exciting! Those puppies would be so so cute - you'd be lucky to get one

[Speaker 2] Yes they said i could have first choice as they know i love dogs so much. I imagine a Yorkie-poo Rottweiler cross might be quite hard work but i would love to own one.

[Speaker 1] I think it could be challenging but if you're prepared you'll rise to the challenge no problem. Do you like taking long walks because i'm sure the dog would need plenty

[Speaker 2] Yes i really like long walks, where i live i am surrounded by forests so lots of places to walk a dog.

[Speaker 1] Oh that sounds great, it's so much fun taking a dog out to explore! They're so naturally curious

[Speaker 2] Yes, also it would be great exercise for me. Im wondering what to call it, i think Barabbas if its a boy, but if its a girl i dont know, any suggestions?

I don't like anchovies.

My brother is planning to get a dog.

I want to to create a comic book about a dog. I love dogs. I think puppies are cute.

I like dog memes.

I'm a professional wrestler.

I might be getting a dog.  I am thinking about names for my dog.

I have a friend who has a dog and a boyfriend.

I like long walks. I am surrounded by foresets.

[Speaker 1] I am getting the dog tomorrow!

[Speaker 2] Wow, that's great.  Is it the dog for your brother?

[Speaker 1] Technically, he will be mine, but I know my brother will be over to play with him all the time.

[Speaker 2] What kind of dog is he?

[Speaker 1] He's a husky/shepherd mix! He has one green eye and one blue eye.

[Speaker 2] I love Huskies so much!  They're so talkative and friendly.  Are you going to teach him some cool tricks?

[Speaker 1] I'm gonna try to! I've had good luck training dogs in the past so maybe this one will be the same way.

[Speaker 2] What kind of tricks do you want to teach him?

[Speaker 1] I'd love to do the basic sit, lay down, and handshake. I love when dogs hold up their paws to shake hands.

[Speaker 2] My friend taught her dog to say doge.  It sounds kind of like it, but you could try speak to start.

[Speaker 1] Aww! I bet that is adorable.

[Speaker 2] Yes, definitely.  Almost as adorable as the doge memes.

I don't like anchovies.

My brother is planning to get a dog.

I'm getting a dog tomorrow. My new dog is a husky/shepherd mix. He has one green eye and one blue one.

I've trained dogs in the past.

I like dog memes.

I'm a professional wrestler.

I love huskies.

My friend taught her dog to say doge.

[Speaker 1] Would you like to come meet my dog? I know you love huskies.

[Speaker 2] I definitely do, and I'm pretty interested in meeting a mixed breed.

[Speaker 1] He's super friendly and loves meeting new people. Do you have any dog names in mind?

[Speaker 2] You haven't come up with the name yet? How about doge 2.0

[Speaker 1] No hahaha my dog has a name, I was talking about your potential new dog. Doge 2.0 is hilarious though

[Speaker 2] Well, I'm still trying to decide whether it's good timing for finding a dog, but if I do, I might take that name haha

[Speaker 1] True, dogs are a really big commitment and you definitely need to have enough time to spend on them. I know you're a professional wrestler, what hours do you usually work?

[Speaker 2] At most 12 hours a day, starting at 5...How about you? Working on your book?

[Speaker 1] Wow that's a long day!! Maybe it's not a great time to get a dog...I'm trying to work on my comic book but it's so difficult to come up with a good plot. A dog fighting crime has been done before. A dog solving mysteries? Also exists.

[Speaker 2] Oh, wow, and those sound creative, too. What about... A dog and cat fighting?

[Speaker 1] LOL that's not a bad idea!! I have a dog and a cat so I can base my characters off of them. My cat would definitely be a villain if he had the chance.

[Speaker 2] Ahaha and maybe his two different color eyes are super powers?!


They are constantly on my back.

I just want to have fun with my friends.

I am 19 and I cannot wait to move out 19 my parents home.

I don't drink or do drugs or anything.

I like meditation.

I live in alaska.

I quit my job to pursue my spirituality full time.

I'm a buddhist.

I have not spoken in three months.

I wish they would all just stop nagging me.

I like to relax.

I am very excited to leave for college.

I'm squeaky clean when it comes to alcohol.

I do yoga to relax.

My home borders canada and the bering sea.

I left my previous employment to dedicate my life to religion.

I believe in karma.

I'm temporarily mute.

[Speaker 1] Hello! I am paula!

[Speaker 2] Hello paula. Nice to meet you

[Speaker 1] I am 19. How old are you?

[Speaker 2] I am 34. Where do you live? I am from alaska

[Speaker 1] Australia. Wish I was your age. Need to move out from my parents home

[Speaker 2] What line of work are you in?

[Speaker 1] Not working yet. Just having fun with friends! Hehe. You?

[Speaker 2] I actually quit working to focus on buddhism

[Speaker 1] Oh! Interesting! I guess you do not do drugs.. I do not!

[Speaker 2] No I do not. My body is a temple. I meditate often

[Speaker 1] Nice! Wish my parents did! They are always controlling me. Need meditation

[Speaker 2] Your parents want what is best for you. Are you in college?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I'm studying law at the moment

[Speaker 2] Excellent choice! That will provide great opportunities

I am unemployed.

I am 34 years old. I am from Alaska.

I am unemployed. I practice Buddhism. I like to meditate.

[Speaker 1] Meditation looks like it has a lot of benefits.  I might look into starting it.

[Speaker 2] Yes, it's very calming. Being able to center yourself every so often is good for your mind. How are your law studies going?

[Speaker 1] I'll definitely try it then. They're going well, being pre-law is hard, but my girlfriend and I study together which makes everything easier. Are you in a relationship?

[Speaker 2] Not right now. I left a long-term relationship a year ago. No fighting or anything, we just grew apart. I'm kind of enjoying being single and just having friends I hang out with. Sometimes relationships seem like too much drama.

[Speaker 1] Yeah that's understandable, though I love being in a relationship. Growing up I went to a religious private school, and being gay was very hard there, so I love that I can be out and in a relationship in college.

[Speaker 2] Oh my gosh, yes, I'm sure it must have been rough. I'm so glad you have a place you can blossom now! Have you two ever traveled out of Australia together?

[Speaker 1] No, but we plan to take a trip during the upcoming winter break, which I guess is summertime for you Americans. My parents are actually helping cover the costs, which is nice. They've changed so much and even left the church since I was in High School. I'm so grateful they chose to love their daughter, me, over an imaginary man in the sky, and I think paying for this trip is their way to apologize for the years of not being great parents.

[Speaker 2] It's so good to hear that! Parents can sometimes lose sight of what really matters in their anxiety for their child to turn out whatever they consider "well". Where will you travel? If you come to the US I can really recommend the Southeast. I'm considering moving there at some point. It's a bit cold up here!

[Speaker 1] Thanks! Also isn't the entire country basically the southeast for you lol? I bet anywhere is warmer than Alaska. We're actually going to London!  I love Britain, and. my girlfriend adores theatre, so we thought why not go see shows on the West End and hang out in the UK.

[Speaker 2] Haha yes! I think even though I was born here I'm just not an Alaska girl. I'll bet you'll really enjoy London and the West End. One day I'll visit the UK. I'd love to see Scotland myself.

[Speaker 1] Where would you move specifically though? I can see not wanting to stay where you grew up. And I'll let you know how the trip goes, and if I have any recommendations of must do stuff.

[Speaker 2] I've visited Charleston and Savannah, and I really liked Savannah. The weather is *definitely* a change from here though, summers are quite hot and sticky. I love that the city has a lot of historical buildings, restaurants, etc and I love Low Country food. I'd love to hear your recommendations! How long will you stay there

My name is Paula. I am 19 years old. I am from Australia.  I live with my parents. I am unemployed.

I am interested in meditation.

I am gay. I went to a religious private school. I love being able to show off my relationship.

I am 34 years old. I am from Alaska.

I am currently enjoying being single. I left a long-term relationship a year ago. I hang out with friends.

I am considering moving to the southeast United States. I live in Alaska. I want to visit Scotland.

[Speaker 1] I don't think I'm familiar with Low Country food. Can you give me some examples? What are your favorite dishes?

[Speaker 2] Oh come on - you've got to know all about Shrimp and Grits and of course classic fried chicken!!

[Speaker 1] I didnt know the south was referred to it as that. Where does that term come from?

[Speaker 2] It's a specific area in South Carolina - not all of the South!

[Speaker 1] Oh! That makes more sense. I have family in Georgia and I had never heard them talk about it. What kind of barbeque do you prefer?

[Speaker 2] Oh I love ALL barbeque but I think Kansas City might edge it for me - what about you?

[Speaker 1] I like North Carolina barbeque but Southern Alabama BBQ chicken is where its at!

[Speaker 2] Oh yes you raise a good point I love me some BBQ chicken! I could eat BBQ everyday of the week but I try to avoid too much unhealthy food!

[Speaker 1] Yeah, too much red meat will do you in early. Doesnt make it any less tasty though.

[Speaker 2] So true. It's hard to say no but sometimes you just have to!

[Speaker 1] Very true. There are some healthy southern options. The greens and other vegetables also get a lot of good attention.

[Speaker 2] I know but they also come covered in butter - I think it's just a one way ticket to heart attack central!!!

I am interested in meditation.

I am 34 years old. I am from Alaska.

I would like to move to Charleston or Savannah. I love Low Country food. I like fried chicken. I like South Carolina food. I like all barbeque, and mostly Kansas City barbeque.

I try to eat healthy. I don't like butter on my food.

[Speaker 1] I'm getting fried chicken tonight

[Speaker 2] I love fried chicken!  Any Southern food I love.  I hope to move South within the year.  Do you like living in Australia?

[Speaker 1] I liked living in Australia but I'm excited to go to London and see some place new! Also I heard London has great Chinese food and I love Chinese food. Is there anywhere you'd like to travel besides the South?

[Speaker 2] Lol!  That seems so funny to go to London for Chinese food.  I would never have guess that they have good Chinese food.  I have always wanted to visit Scotland, and would also love to visit Japan during cherry blossom season.  It looks so beautiful!

[Speaker 1] I love cherry blossoms! My family in Georgia has cherry trees in their backyard and they're gorgeous

[Speaker 2] So do you get to visit your family in Georgia very often?

[Speaker 1] About once a year! They're very friendly and they like talking to me about studying the law. Do you have family you're close with?

[Speaker 2] Yes, I actually have family in Charleston.  I really miss them.  Alaska is beautiful, but a bit too remote for me, and too far away from my loved ones.

[Speaker 1] Have you seen any cool wildlife in Alaska? I love the kangaroos here

[Speaker 2] I love kangaroos!  I would love to see one in person.  I also love koala bears.  Here is Alaska, I see a lot of bears, which is cool.  I don't get too close though....lol?  So what kind of law do you want to specialize in?

[Speaker 1] Immigration law hopefully! How about you? Are you interested in any particular career when you move to the South?

[Speaker 2] I have actually been doing a lot of freelance writing since my last job.  I really like the freedom that come with that, so may stick with that - as long as I can earn a living.  The good thing is I can travel and write at the same time!

I am interested in meditation.

I am studying pre-law but find it hard. I enjoy studying with my girlfriend. I do immigration law.

I live in Australia. I am going to take a trip over winter break. My parents left the church when I was in high school. My girlfriend and I are going to London and going to the theatre. I have family in Georgia. I love cherry blossoms and my family is from georgia. I visit my family once a year.

I like Southern Alabama BBQ best. I like red meat. I like greens and vegetables. I eat fried chicken. I love Chinse food.

I love Kangaroos.

I am 34 years old. I am from Alaska. I like Alaska.

I would like to move to Charleston or Savannah. I have family in Charleston. I love Low Country food. I like fried chicken. I like South Carolina food. I like all barbeque, and mostly Kansas City barbeque.

I want to move south.

I want to visit japan and scotland.

I like Kangaroos too. I like Koala Bears.

I want to be a writer.

[Speaker 1] I got an internship in a law firm!

[Speaker 2] That is so great! Getting in is the hard part, now you will be guaranteed a job. Do you know what kind of law you want to ultimately practice?

[Speaker 1] I'm not sure yet, now I'm more leaning toward property law but I might change my mind later. Do you have any suggestions?

[Speaker 2] There are so many different kinds! I know a few people who specialize in tax law and that can be quite lucrative. Perhaps you can use your internship to get experience in a variety of areas and then pick the one you like the best!

[Speaker 1] That's a good suggestion, thanks! I'll look more into it and definitely try to explore more options since it can't hurt. By the way you told me how you want to be a writer before, have you written any stories?

[Speaker 2] great! i have been journaling a lot, trying to find inspiration. i haven't had anything really inspire me lately, but i think that i will try a lot harder in the coming months. summer has always been a better time for me to write. travelling has always been good inspriation for me. how are things with you and your girlfriend?

[Speaker 1] Yeah I get what you mean, I also feel much more energetic in the summer and can have more motivations to do work comparing to in the winter. And we're doing well now, and we're thinking about attending the pride month parade together!

[Speaker 2] that would be so nice! there are so many pride parades around the country here. is there a parade in the city you live in now?

[Speaker 1] Sadly no, and that's why we're thinking to travel to Sydney together to join the parade, and this will be more first time joining it so I'm excited!

[Speaker 2] yes that makes sense. i bet sydney has a grand parade. the best one i ever saw was in san francisco, some day you should travel there and participate - i bet it would knock your socks off

[Speaker 1] Yeah I would love to travel there one day! Unfortunately I'm short on money right now, but after the internship I might save enough for next year!

[Speaker 2] hopefully they pay you overtime for all the hours you will be working. i have heard about the long hours you have to put in as a new lawyer! but you can bank away that pay and save for a nice trip with your girlfriend for sure

[Speaker 1] Why would they pick on that?

I know asian languages.

[Speaker 1] Hi, how are you doing?

[Speaker 2] Doing good. Just strumming my guitar. How about you?

[Speaker 1] I am fine, I was watching a cooking show, I like those

[Speaker 2] Do you like cooking or baking? Or both?

[Speaker 1] Neither, I just like to eat. For example I like hummus

[Speaker 2] My go to snack is chocolate bars

[Speaker 1] Me too! I am vegan but still love chocolate

[Speaker 2] What other hobbies do you have? I play violin and guitar

[Speaker 1] I like extreme sensations, like sky diving and rollercoasters

[Speaker 2] Yikes I hate roller coasters. They are so scary.

[Speaker 1] I am afraid of water, I am not good at swimming

[Speaker 2] What do you do for work? I am an electrician just like my dad.

[Speaker 1] I like electricity and electronics. I'm a bartender

[Speaker 2] Do you speak any languages? I'm teaching myself chinese

[Speaker 1] I speak spanish too. Chinese is way too complicated for me

[Speaker 2] Yeah it is hard to learn but I would love to visit china one day.

I like cooking shows. I like eating. I like hummus. I am vegan.

I like extreme or adventurous activities.

I am afraid of water. I am not good at swimming.

I am a bartender.

I am an electrician. My dad is an electrician.

I am learning to speak Chinese. I would love to visit China.

[Speaker 1] Something happened at the bar yesterday I think you would find interesting.

[Speaker 2] Oh yeah? Do tell! Something interesting always happens to you!

[Speaker 1] A guy walks in. He was only speaking Spanish and didn't know I could understand him. Turns out he's a huge movie star in Spain. I got a picture and an autograph.

[Speaker 2] Oh wow that is so cool and exciting! What did he order?

[Speaker 1] Just a beer! Sometimes we think these guys are so different but they are just like us... wanted a cool beer to relax. Have you ever met someone who was famous with your work as an electrician?

[Speaker 2] I haven't met anyone famous per se.. but I have met a lot of interesting people! For example I met an elderly man who worked on the apollo 11 mission! I got to see all his memorabilia. It was fascinating.

[Speaker 1] Wow, that is so interesting. I think I would like that better than a movie star. He must have had some good stories.

[Speaker 2] Yeah it is such a unique experience! I feel lucky that I got to work on his house! I would like to get him a beer!  When are you working next? I wanna stop by.

[Speaker 1] I have a while. I am going on an adventure trip first. I can't wait.

[Speaker 2] You are such an adrenaline junkie! Where are you off to this time?

[Speaker 1] I am going to hike some mountains. They are really tall.

[Speaker 2] Oh cool! Anything in particular you are excited to see while hiking? Like animals or sites?

I am a bartender.

I speak Spanish.

I met a Spanish movie star.

I like adventures. I go hiking.

I play guitar and violin.

I like chocolate bars.

I hate roller coasters.

I work on people's homes.

[Speaker 1] I bought new shoes for hiking.

[Speaker 2] Oh great, what kind of shoes did you buy?

[Speaker 1] Just some good quality walking shoes - they're a bit boring looking but I had just been using my gym shoes when I went hiking and they were starting to really hurt my toes!

[Speaker 2] I have a pair of Army boots for when i go hiking, you would think they would be good but id get blisters if i walked even a mile in them!

[Speaker 1] Oh no, seriously? There's nothing worse than starting a long walk and realising your shoes aren't up to the job

[Speaker 2] Yes these are awful, i did an 80km hike a few years ago for chairty. Blisters the size of goose eggs on both my heels. I really should get new ones.

[Speaker 1] Oh my goodness they must have hurt for days after! 80km is quite the achievement though, well done you!

[Speaker 2] I had to pop the blisters with needles, it was quite gruesome! Have you ever thought about maybe confronting your water fear? Id like to go white water rafting, maybe you could come too?

[Speaker 1] Ew that's gross but a necessary evil I guess! And I don't know, I wish I could try and get a handle on my fear but anytime I'm near the water I just freeze up and my brain stops working!

[Speaker 2] That doesn't sound fun, i used to get vertigo, i managed to get it cured by accupuncture and hypnotism. It sounds crazy, but it worked.

[Speaker 1] Hey anything that works to solve problems is worth while even if it sounds crazy. Have you been white water rafting before?

[Speaker 2] Yes, iv been white water rafting, sky diving and iv also bungee jumped. One day id really like to fly a wing suit.

I am a bartender.

I speak Spanish.

I met a Spanish movie star.

I like adventures. I go hiking. I used to use my gym shoes when I went hiking. My toes began to hurt from that.

I play guitar and violin.

I like chocolate bars.

I hate roller coasters.

I work on people's homes.

I have a pair of Army boots that I use when I go hiking. I did an 80km hike a few years ago for charity.

I'd like to go white water rafting. I've been white water rafting, sky diving, and bungee jumping before. One day I would like to fly a wing suit.

I used to get vertigo, but I cured it with acupuncture and hypnotism.

[Speaker 1] I could send you the link to the hiking shoes I bought if you'd like to get some for yourself! I tried them out today and loved them.

[Speaker 2] I'm always looking for new hiking shoes! I'd love to have the link. Do they have many colors to choose from?

[Speaker 1] Sure, I'll send the link later.  It's a pair of Nike hiking boots though, so you can probably find them online.  There are 2 dozen color choices if I remember correctly.

[Speaker 2] Oh ok yeah, a google search will probably bring them right up.

[Speaker 1] What kind of shoes do you have right now?

[Speaker 2] I have a pair of regular hiking boots right now, but they are worn out because I have had them for several years.

[Speaker 1] Are those the army boots?  Where are those from?

[Speaker 2] No, they are actual hiking boots. I bought them at a sporting good store.

[Speaker 1] Definitely get some new ones.  Old boots can cause sores on your feet for long hikes.

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I'm def starting to experience some discomfort so I'll be getting new ones sooner than later.

[Speaker 1] I went on a 100 mile hike with my new boots and my feet felt like they were on clouds.

[Speaker 2] I bet that was nice and enjoyable!

I am a bartender.

I speak Spanish.

I met a Spanish movie star.

I went on a 100 mile hike.

I play guitar and violin.

I like chocolate bars.

I hate roller coasters.

I work on people's homes.

I'm always looking for new hiking shoes. I have a pair of regular hiking boots now, but they're worn. My old boots are causing discomfort.

[Speaker 1] Did you buy a new pair of boots yet?

[Speaker 2] Yes. I am going to break them in a little this weekend. I'm going on a half-day hike.

[Speaker 1] Oh then it might be best to not go on your hike with these boots, the breaking in part will probably hurt a lot and really affect your hiking experience!

[Speaker 2] I'm taking both pair with me. I'll wear the new ones for an hour or so and then switch to my old ones. That's why I'm going on a short hike.

[Speaker 1] I see that makes more sense. Where are you going for your half day hike? I also want to hike this weekend.

[Speaker 2] There is a state park about an hour drive from here. It has a hike I've been on before. I wanted to break in my boots someplace familiar and easy. I am going to take my camping gear and stay overnight. Nothing fancy. Just my sleeping bag by the camp fire.

[Speaker 1] That sounds nice and peaceful, must be good to have a break from the city life. I never camped overnight before because I'm too paranoid of bear attack, like I know I'm being paranoid but I cannot hep with it.

[Speaker 2] No bears down here in the south. I guess the worst thing that could happen to me in the campground would be to get sprayed by a skunk.

[Speaker 1] That's good to hear, still I feel too risk averse to try it alone. Maybe I'll try to camp overnight with friends sometimes so at least there'll be someone I can talk to if I'm scared.

[Speaker 2] That's a really good plan. There is safety in numbers. And part of the safety is having soneone to talk to. I'm going alone, but I'm staying at the main campground with people around.

[Speaker 1] Yeah it's always good to have some safety measures. By the way, how is your progress on learning Chinese? I also want to learn some new languages.

[Speaker 2] It's going slow, but it is going. I'm learning Mandarin Chinese. My pronunciation is sad, but I think I'm making progress on my reading.


I do not drink or do drugs or anything.

I just want to have fun with my friends.

I'm 19 and I cannot wait to move out 19 my parents home.

I work took I have a part time job at burger king.

I am fluent in english spanish and french.

I am an elementary school teacher.

My boyfriend and I are moving into an apartment together next week.

I'm interested in photography and like taking pictures.

I'm squeaky clean when it comes to alcohol.

I like to relax.

I'm very excited to leave for college.

I am employed in the fast food industry.

I can speak 3 languages.

I work with children.

My significant other and myself are relocating to a new flat soon.

I enjoy art and often edit images of my family.

[Speaker 1] Hi how are you tonight?

[Speaker 2] I'm very good, just practicing taking pictures. How are you?

[Speaker 1] Good but will be better when I move out of my parents house!

[Speaker 2] Oh definitely! I am moving next week into a new apartment with my boyfriend

[Speaker 1] Cool! I will not be able to afford an apartment with my burger king job. Advice?

[Speaker 2] Learn a language, I speak english, french, and spanish. You can tutor or teach like I do

[Speaker 1] That's a good idea! Then I can hang out with my friends more

[Speaker 2] It is a rewarding job, I teach at an elementary school and that's even more rewarding

[Speaker 1] Yeah seems like it. I just want to have fun though now

[Speaker 2] I understand that, I spend a lot of my free time practicing photography

[Speaker 1] I love taking pictures. I do that a lot but I am nowhere near a professional

[Speaker 2] I am not either but I'll have my own studio in my new apartment

[Speaker 1] Good luck with everything you are doing!

[Speaker 2] Thank you very much! I appreciate that!

[Speaker 1] No problem. Maybe one day you can teach me something!

[Speaker 2] I'd be honored to teach you, maybe that second language!

I live in my parent's house.
I work at Burger King.
I like taking pictures.

I like photography.

I live in my parent's house. I am moving. I have a boyfriend.

I have a studio in my new apartment.

[Speaker 1] How did the move to your new apartment go?

[Speaker 2] It went as good as it could go.

[Speaker 1] Moving is never easy, I completely understand that now. Since we last spoke, I too moved out of my parents' house and into my own apartment. It's just a little place, but I love that it's my own! Is your boyfriend living with you now?

[Speaker 2] That's awesome that you were able to move out of your parent's house. It's such a good feeling to get out on your own. He's not living with me yet, he still has his own place. We will probably end up living together at some point.

[Speaker 1] Very cool. I'm really enjoying living alone, but that's not to say I wouldn't mind getting a boyfriend at some point in the future. I was promoted to the District Manager at Burger King, so I'm moving up in the world! How are the kids you're teaching this year? I want to learn a new language...just not sure which one. lol

[Speaker 2] Grats on the promotion at work. Are you still at the Burger King downtown or did they move you? This school year has been pretty good. I seem to have lots of eager learners this time, which I always appreciate. I think you should pick a language that you like or one that you might be able to use?

[Speaker 1] I'm at the headquarters in the city now. Got my own company vehicle and an office with windows that overlook the river! That's great that your kids are eager to learn. That must make teaching them SO much easier! I'm thinking about Spanish...I could definitely use that while communicating with employees in the locations I manage. Is it a difficult language to learn? Do you think those audio-type lessons are any good?

[Speaker 2] Wow, it sounds like you are doing really well! As far as learning a language goes, the most effective way to do is to immerse yourself into the language. The best way is to spend some time in the country where the language is spoken. Don't be afraid to test out your skills with the locals.

[Speaker 1] Oh how amazing would a trip to Mexico or even Spain be!? I could go for that! Maybe we should plan one for the summer when you're off work! Then you could coach me with speaking to the locals in Spanish! Sounds like a good plan, right?

[Speaker 2] That sounds like a lot of fun. It would be my pleasure to coach you on speaking with the locals. I think Spain would be a better choice. It's lovely there.

[Speaker 1] Great thanks! I'll start researching the trip and email you the ideas I come up with! I've gotta run for now. But it was great catching up with you and I look forward to chatting again real soon!

[Speaker 2] Yes, so much fun talking with you again! Have a great day!!!

I like taking pictures.

I just moved out of my parents' house and into a new apartment.

I like photography.

I just moved into a new apartment from my parent's house. I have a studio in my new apartment. My boyfriend doesn't live with me.

I would also love to go to Spain.

[Speaker 1] I would really like to visit Barcelona while in Spain. I think there would be go many good photo opportunities there.

[Speaker 2] Barcelona seems like a great choice. I would love the chance to do some photography there.

[Speaker 1] Yes it would be brilliant. Barcelona is so picturesque. I've always wanted to plan a trip to Spain or Mexico, they seem such amazing countries to go to. have you ever been abroad before?

[Speaker 2] Me too, those places are definitely on my bucket list. I haven't made it to Spain yet but I have spent time in other parts of Europe, like France and England.

[Speaker 1] Oh wow, how was it to travel to France? It seems a lovely place, especially Paris. I'd love to take photos of the Eiffel Tower

[Speaker 2] It was amazing. Paris was definitely a highlight, but I would recommend taking the time to visit some smaller towns in the countryside if you can.

[Speaker 1] Oh really, I definitely will whenever I get chance to travel to France. Did you manage to get some lovely pictures?

[Speaker 2] Oh absolutely. My favorite pictures are from my time in southern France by the coast.

[Speaker 1] That sounds wonderful. I can imagine the scenery would of been beautiful over there. I am going to start a bucket list very soon with a list of all these amazing countries. I would also love to learn Spanish one day too, it would be amazing to be able to speak to so many locals at foreign counties.

[Speaker 2] Knowing Spanish has definitely been very useful, but I will say there's no better way to learn than by immersing yourself in it.

[Speaker 1] I should really take the leap one day and just sign myself up to lessons, because it would be such an achievement for me. I work a lot though, so I'd have to try and find time when I'm not in the office to learn Spanish. How do you find the time with being a school teacher? That must be a demanding job.

[Speaker 2] Well I did already have a little background from high school Spanish classes. But I actually learned most of it just from language apps, and spent a lot of time watching spanish TV.

I like taking pictures.

I live alone. I wish I had a boyfriend. I work at Burger King headquarters. I was recently promoted to District Manager. I have a company vehicle and an office. I want to learn Spanish.

I would love to go to Mexico or Spain. I will research and plan for a trip to Spain. I'm interested in photography and traveling.

I like photography.

I would also love to go to Spain.

[Speaker 1] I found some language apps I'm thinking of trying, are there ones you used that you think would help me the most?

[Speaker 2] I really like Duolingo, but I learned most of my languages in the classroom and abroad.  Are you planning on learning Spanish with the app?

[Speaker 1] Yes, I want to know a fair amount of Spanish before traveling to Spain.

[Speaker 2] I forget what it's called, but you can also use an app that connects you with native speakers to learn the language in a video call.

[Speaker 1] Oh wow, I will have to research that! I feel like you can learn so much quicker from an actual person! What do you find the key is to learning different languages.

[Speaker 2] Using the language frequently is my best advice.  If you hear people speaking Spanish, try to ask them questions or make conversation in the language.  Immersion is the quickest way to learn.  Or just move to Spain!

[Speaker 1] Moving to Spain may be difficult, but I understand what you are saying! I will try to immerse myself. Does your boyfriend speak different languages as well?

[Speaker 2] He can speak 16 different languages, he is a hyperpolyglot.  I'd love to speak that many.

[Speaker 1] WOW! That is insane. How cool though! How did you guys meet? Through language study?

[Speaker 2] We met in Spanish class back in high school :)

[Speaker 1] What an amazing story. You mentioned wanting to travel to Spain, does he want to travel as well?

[Speaker 2] We're actually planning on going this summer.  Maybe we'll see you there?

I like taking pictures.

I like photography.

I speak English, French, and Spanish. I teach languages. I am an elementary school teacher. I know tips on how to learn new languages. I have tried the Duolingo app.  I learned other languages in the classroom and abroad.

I would also love to go to Spain.

I have traveled abroad to France and England. I have been to Paris, France. I can speak Spanish and English. My boyfriend speaks 16 different languages. I met my boyfriend in high school Spanish class.

I am plan on traveling to Spain with my boyfriend this summer.

[Speaker 1] I have signed up for Spanish classes to prepare for my trip to Spain!

[Speaker 2] Oh cool! I'm eager to see you improve and see how they teach you, being a language instructor myself.

[Speaker 1] I think I'll need them so I don't embarrass myself! Hey, have you considered the three of us going on a trip to Spain together?

[Speaker 2] I'm down for it, though I've never been there before. You more interested in big-ticket city sights or quaint tiny villages?

[Speaker 1] I want to experience the villages. I want to learn more about the lives of the people living there and hopefully makes some friends. What about you?

[Speaker 2] I think I'll go for about an even split of city and villages; you'll meet a good variety of people in both, and different dialects can be a great remedy for the relentless standarization of classroom language education.

[Speaker 1] Good point. I'm just fine with the split strategy. It would probably be neat to experience both as a language instructor too. I'm sure you'll have some fun stories from the trip to tell people about.

[Speaker 2] Nothing as fun as the time I was taught French hunting vocab by some irate Alsatian hunters while camping in the woods with my boyfriend, right?

[Speaker 1] I'm not sure if anything could top that but I think experiences like that are part of what make you such a good instructor!

[Speaker 2] So sad that I teach elementary schoolers, so some stories like that are just barely less than acceptable. Oh...one tip for learning a language is to daydream and make up stories in it in your free time!

[Speaker 1] I've met some wild elementary school teachers in my time. It seems like everyone of them has some crazy story they're hiding. That's a useful tip. I'll have to get my creative juices flowing!

[Speaker 2] Since you and I seem to like photography, maybe we can pair up sometime and invent stories in Spanish (to help you with your class) inspired by photos we've taken.

I like hockey.

I like to play blackjack.

[Speaker 1] I also enjoy blackjack. I like playing with the professional set

[Speaker 2] Ah, you must play better than I then! No way I could play with the pro set. What's your favorite kosher meal?

[Speaker 1] It's an awesome game. We should play sometime, I could give you some tips.

[Speaker 2] That would be great, I hear there's actually quite a bit of money to be made at it. I don't know if I could gamble for "real" money though, it's a bit unnerving!

[Speaker 1] Yeah if you know the right people and communities then big money can change hands. Do you have a farm out in Indiana or are you just apart of the community?

[Speaker 2] I have a small farm. It's more like a house on a piece of land, I don't grow crops except for a vegetable garden. I have a few horses and some dogs (my German Shepherd and a Basset puppy I just got a bit ago). It's a nice community to live in even if I have to drive a while for "city stuff" like shopping and restaurants.

[Speaker 1] Is there a card/gambling community there too is it is mainly just farming? Who do you normally play cards with?

[Speaker 2] There's not really a card or gaming community. Mainly just farming but a few friends and I get together and play sometimes. It's really just goofing off, we play for chips with no money behind it. So what kind of books have you read lately? I've started reading and I've found some non-fiction books I like.

I am a stunt double.

I have a single parent.

I dont have a pet. I like to read.

I sometimes get together with friends to play cards. My friends and I don't bet real money, only chips.

[Speaker 1] I just landed a gig as Zac Efron's stunt double in a new movie! We start shooting in Jamaica in August!

[Speaker 2] Awesome! That's excellent. Where in Jamaica will you be shooting in?

[Speaker 1] From what I understand basically all over the place! I didn't even know that Zac Efron was still a thing! How's your new puppy?

[Speaker 2] My dog's doing great! He's really getting along with the horses I've got on the farm. The dog loves getting the attention of large animals.

[Speaker 1] Oh wow he sounds like he has a good confident personality!

[Speaker 2] He is! He's probably the most energetic out of all of us, even more so than the German Shepard. Speaking of animals - I know you don't have any now, but will you ever consider getting one?

[Speaker 1] Not anytime soon. I travel so much for work I wouldn't have enough time to spend with them. I am thinking of fostering an animal though. That way I can get to experience having a pet without all the commitment.

[Speaker 2] Oh, that's a great way to get involved. Dog, cat, or something else?

[Speaker 1] Either one honestly. I love both! Maybe some cats at first.

[Speaker 2] That's a good idea. Cats are lower maintenance than dogs. They're not maintenance-free, but at least you don't have to walk a cat or potty train it.

[Speaker 1] Yeah that is what I am thinking! What are your dogs names?

[Speaker 2] One's named Peanut, and the other's named Butter.

I am a stunt double in movies.

I have a single parent.

I like to read.

I eat kosher meals.

I play blackjack.

I like coloring books.

I like hockey.

I have a small farm. I have a house. I have a vegetable garden. I have multiple horses and dogs. I recently got a Bassett Hound puppy and a German Shepherd. I have two dogs named Peanut and Butter. I enjoy living in the country.

[Speaker 1] Which is your German Shepherd, Peanut or Butter?

[Speaker 2] Peanut! The basset hound is butter. I'm considering getting a cat and naming it Jelly, haha

[Speaker 1] That would be funny lol. I just fostered a cat named Pickles. He was fun to have for a little while. Would your dogs do ok with a cat?

[Speaker 2] I've heard you can train dogs to be friendly to cats and vice versa. Are you enjoying spending time with Pickles?

[Speaker 1] I was sad to give him back when he got adopted out. I would like one pet to keep i think

[Speaker 2] Do you think you could manage it with your work schedule?

[Speaker 1] No not really but I heard about this pet sitting service in my area that would walk my dog and let them out to go to the bathroom and keep them company. Have you ever used a pet service like that before for your dogs?

[Speaker 2] Actually my brother started one of those pet sitting services! I haven't used it but it seems reliable

[Speaker 1] Well, that makes me feel good that you have heard of the service. I never even knew something like that was an option, I just knew I couldn't take my pet to my movie gigs.

[Speaker 2] Do you have any interesting movie projects coming up? I love action movies

[Speaker 1] I am headed to Jamaica in August to shoot a new action movie. It will be hot there but I have never been to Jamaica, have you been?

[Speaker 2] I went to Jamaica once, for my second wedding anniversary. It was lovely!

I am a stunt double in movies.

I have a single parent.

I like to read.

I eat kosher meals.

I play blackjack.

I don't have any pets because I travel too much for work. I would like to foster animals. I like both cats and dogs. I might use a pet service.

I fostered a cat named Pickles, but he's gone now. I had to give Pickles back. I'd like to have a pet to keep.

I'm going to Jamaica in August to shoot an action movie. I have never been to Jamaica,.

I like coloring books.

I like hockey.

I have a small farm. I have a house. I have a vegetable garden. I have multiple horses and dogs. I recently got a Bassett Hound puppy and a German Shepherd. I own a German Shepherd named Peanut and a Basset Hound named Butter. I enjoy living in the country.

I'm thinking about getting a cat named Jelly.

I think dogs and cats can be trained to get along with each other.

My brother runs a pet-sitting service, but I haven't used it.

I love action movies.

I went to Jamaica for my second wedding anniversary.

[Speaker 1] I'm thinking... maybe you can rent Peanut or Butter out to me when I'm in town? OK, that's a joke! But chatting with you has made me really want to have a pet of my own!

[Speaker 2] Ill bring them over for a visit sometime soon, how about that?Re you prepared for your trip to the carribean?

[Speaker 1] Yeah, I just finished getting my passport. I also bought all kinds of new clothing for the tropical weather that they have there.

[Speaker 2] Sometimes they have hurricanes there. Its goiung to be so hot

[Speaker 1] Yeah, the weather can be pretty crazy there. But I keep on telling myself that I am going to love all the beaches and the views of the ocean, can't wait.

[Speaker 2] Do you know what stunts you will have to do yet? I would be so nervous, do you ever get nervous before a movie?

[Speaker 1] I get nevious, but it is mostly just all the excitement and energy around what I am going to do. One of the stunt's I have to do is a boat chase with a few explosions. It's going to be exciting.

[Speaker 2] That does sound exciting. When I was there I enjoyed the nightlife, the casinos had some good blackjack

[Speaker 1] Yeah, I've heard that they have some killer casinos there. How long ago did you go there?

[Speaker 2] That was many years ago. It was right before I got the horses so, I'd say about 8 years.

[Speaker 1] Ah I see. I have not been in a casino in about 15 years. I have heard that that most places don't do tokens anymore at the slot machines, it is all digital. I think it has something to do with the fact that you can pull the lever more frequently, so the casino makes more money.

[Speaker 2] I wouldnt doubt it, though pushing a button isnt nearly as fun as actually pulling the lever and hearing the money fall down


I enjoy going to clubs.
I was saved by a relative.
I reside in california.
I had an arranged marriage.

I have swirling dark locks.
I like bright colors.
I do not consume meat products.
I love to ride my horse.
I am a sophomore.

[Speaker 1] Hello, how are you this afternoon?

[Speaker 2] I'm doing very well

[Speaker 1] Do you dance? Do you live in florida? I love the united states.

[Speaker 2] I like dancing and reading vegan books

[Speaker 1] My aunt brought me and my sister here from somalia.

[Speaker 2] What was it like there

[Speaker 1] Awful. I was forced into an arranged marriage. It is so much nicer here.

[Speaker 2] Why were you forced into marriage

[Speaker 1] It is how things are done over there.

[Speaker 2] Where do you live at

[Speaker 1] I live the midwest. Where are you?

[Speaker 2] I'm in mississippi the south

[Speaker 1] I know where that is, I've a friend there.

[Speaker 2] How did you two meet

[Speaker 1] At a ballet recital. Are you married?

[Speaker 2] I'm too young for that


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

I work for the military.

I reside in the far north of america.

My grandpa is a veteran.

I love middle eastern cuisine.

I do not run but I'm active for more than 25.

I'm a magic kingdom frequenter.

I like catching up on new novels.

My children are important to me.

I bring new life to this world.

[Speaker 1] In the army here, I live in canada

[Speaker 2] Oh, I walk a couple miles a day so I know the pain.

[Speaker 1] Oh, my favorite food is shawarma

[Speaker 2] Oh, I love spending time with my family.

[Speaker 1] My grandfather was in world world 2

[Speaker 2] I am glad he protected disneyland. It is my favorite place.

[Speaker 1] Yeah he sure did, he loved mickey mouse

[Speaker 2] I like reading books to relax.

[Speaker 1] Sounds like a a lot of fun, relaxing

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I need to do it a lot because I deliver babies.

[Speaker 1] Oh okay because you are a delivery nurse

[Speaker 2] Yes it is pretty stressful.

[Speaker 1] Yeah, I bet but worth it

[Speaker 2] It makes me very happy.

[Speaker 1] I bet, so awesome. I mean wow

[Speaker 2] Yeah, I'm glad you think so.


My dream car is a rolls royce ghost.

I currently work for a watch dealer.

I often shop for shoes and watches.

My family does not support my career choices.

I like shopping.

My parents were both very athletic.

I love running and preparing for marathons.

I got a new job just yesterday to be a life coach.

I am a clean eater.

I have very expensive taste in vehicles.

I'm employed at a time keeping shop.

I usually browse footwear and accessories.

Nobody believes that I should be a mechanic.

I enjoy browsing stores.

I was raised in an active family.

I enjoy sprinting and long races.

I recently started a position helping others with daily challenges.

I care about healthy eating.

[Speaker 1] Hello friend, how are you today

[Speaker 2] Fine thank you lovely night where having.

[Speaker 1] I got some rain today, just come home from buying shoe

[Speaker 2] Do you like jogging. I love running.

[Speaker 1] I not much of a jogging prefer driving fast car

[Speaker 2] Sounds really dangerous. Is it safe to do that.

[Speaker 1] Yeah as long as you have the right car like a rolls royce

[Speaker 2] Wow cool! I got a new job just yesterday.

[Speaker 1] Where are you from friend?

[Speaker 2] Miami! I also like to eat clean

[Speaker 1] Yeah clean eating is important for ones health

[Speaker 2] I know I really like the idea of eating healthy.

[Speaker 1] Whats your favorite food to eat healthy

[Speaker 2] Salad and meat. Both of my parents were pretty athletic.

[Speaker 1] Kool, my parents are ok, just need to encourage me in what I do

[Speaker 2] So what kind of thing do they not encourage you in?

I just got some shoes.
I like to drive fast cars.
My parents do not encourage me.

I like running.

I just got a new job.

I am from Miami. I like to eat clean.

[Speaker 1] Have you started the new job?

[Speaker 2] Yeah I have, I've just started as a car valet at one of the top Casio's in town.

[Speaker 1] That is exciting!  I bet you get to drive some pretty awesome cars!  What is your favorite one so far?

[Speaker 2] On my first night I had a few Bentleys and some other cars such as Ferrari's. It was cool yet quite nerve wracking at the same time. Don't want to damage anything.

[Speaker 1] Do you have to pay if you do damage or do they keep insurance for you?  I would be terrified!  I'd also be tempted to take it around the block and see how fast I could get those sports cars going!

[Speaker 2] The valet company have their own insurance that covers us staff but it would still be bad news if were were to damage anything. I definitely won't be taking any cars around the block as tempting as it would be, the tips are to good to be doing that.

[Speaker 1] Yeah I don't think I'd want to do that and risk losing my job!  I'm sure the people that drive cars like that tip excellent!   Have you gone on any good runs lately?

[Speaker 2] Yeah it only takes one person to have a successful night in the casino to normally land you a nice tip at the end of their night when you hand them their car back. I've not been on many runs lately as I'm arriving back from my job quite early in the morning so that's affected my sleep pattern lately. How are your new shoes? Are they super comfy after wearing them for a few days?

[Speaker 1] Yeah, I'm finally getting past that breaking in period where you just have to push through them being uncomfortable.  Hopefully you can get back on a good sleep schedule and get some running in soon!  I'm sure you miss it!

[Speaker 2] That's good, always nice when shoes eventually feel like a good pair of slippers. I'll definitely get back on it once my body adjusts to it's new body-clock. I was so close to a new personal best too, and it just makes me feel great.

[Speaker 1] Do you ever run any marathons?  I don't know how people can do that!  I wish I had that kind of stamina!  I always tell people, if you see me running, you should run too, because something is chasing us!

I like to drive fast cars.

My parents do not encourage me.

I would be terrified of driving someone else's expensive car. I would love to see how fast I could make a sports car go.

My new shoes are still somewhat uncomfortable.

I am from Miami. I like to eat salad and meat. My parents were athletic.

I have started a new job as a car valet at a casino.

I have driven Bentley's and Ferrari's. I get nervous when driving expensive cars.

I will not take the cars for unauthorized drives. I enjoy the tips I get while working.

I enjoy running. I haven't been running lately. My sleep habits have been negatively impacted because of my job. I hope to start running again soon.

[Speaker 1] Has your new job impacted your eating habits any? Do you find yourself reaching for processed foods instead of salads more often?

[Speaker 2] Yeah, sometimes. I have to admit that my lifestyle's been going downhill. Sleep's also not great - I'm taking some melatonin every night to cope.

[Speaker 1] Oh that's not great to hear! I'm sure taking a few naps in the day may help your sleeping pattern. Do you work at night?

[Speaker 2] I do now. My new job as a valet at the casino is a night shift. It's not great for my lifestyle, but the tips are great. All these late-night gamblers drive expensive European cars. Speaking of which, what sports car do you fancy?

[Speaker 1] Wow, night shifts can certainly be challenging to get your head around, it can really affect your body with the change of sleeping pattern, so I can completely understand your struggles. Oh wow, I'd love to drive a Lambo aventador, that would be the dream. Just to see how fast I can go, see how much I can push the car to it's limits.

[Speaker 2] Haha, a classic choice! If you take that thing to a racetrack, you can speed that thing up to 150mph, easily!

[Speaker 1] Wow, that's crazy! If only I got the chance!! What cars have you seen at work? Any that's caught your attention

[Speaker 2] I've seen a Rolls-Royce, a few lambos, and this custom Bugatti they guy told me he bought with his winnings from roulette from this very casino! I bet the owners of this place are fuming every single time they see this guy drive in again with his flashy car. I wonder why he's not banned yet!

[Speaker 1] That's insane mate! I would of loved to see that. He must of won a lot to buy that car. It must be so frustrating seeing people like that winning just from luck

[Speaker 2] Yeah, it is. Meanwhile I'm over here parking his car and sacrificing my sleep over it. Hey, at least the guy tips well. He tosses me a $50 every time he rolls around. I guess I can't complain about that!

[Speaker 1] I can see how it can be but at least one day with all these big tips, you could maybe buy your own lambo or rolls royce. If people have money, and enough to gamble it, they're definitely going to tip well.

[Speaker 2] That's something to hope for, certainly! I don't think I'd jump straight into buying an expensive car, though. I don't trust my driving skills enough. Ironic, I know.

I like to drive fast cars.

My parents do not encourage me.

I love Lambo aventadors.

[Speaker 1] Is your sleep schedule getting any better? Do you get any nights off from your job?

[Speaker 2] No, I do not get any nights off from work but I am slowly starting to get into a better sleep schedule. Hopefully I will be rested enough soon to start running again.

[Speaker 1] Yeah you will need some good rest to have energy for some running. Have you tried taking a nap yet?

[Speaker 2] No, I woke up pretty refreshed today. I was thinking of heading to the beach to play volleyball for a while. Have you ever played beach volleyball?

[Speaker 1] No I haven't I am not that athletic. You seem very athletic and outdoorsy. How many people play with you?

[Speaker 2] There's usually a group of 6-8 people down there playing. I jump in when I can. It helps me wake up and get some sun. So besides cars, what else are you into?

[Speaker 1] I like music and to read. Do you have a favorite music genre or ook?

[Speaker 2] I love music and reading! My music tastes are all over the place but my favorite is 90s hip hop. What about you?

[Speaker 1] I love 90s hip hop and Snoop Dogg and Tupac.

[Speaker 2] Yes, those are both great artists. I also like reading. I just started to get into a series from an author named Sue Grafton.

[Speaker 1] I love Stephan King. I have never heard of Sue Grafton. Ill look her up.

[Speaker 2] I like Stephen King too but I can't read his books before I go to sleep or I get scared.

I like to drive fast cars.

My parents do not encourage me.

I do not enjoy running. I do not have the stamina to run. I am not athletic.

I love Lambo aventadors.

I like music and reading. I love 90s hip hop.  I like Snoop Dogg and Tupac. I like to read Stephen King novels.

I do not sleep well.I work the night shift as a valet for a casino. I'm not a very experienced driver. I work 7 nights days a week.

I like to play beach volleyball.

I love music and reading.  My favorite type of music is 90s hip hop.

I like Stephen King.  I can't read the horror genre at night because I can't sleep or I get scared.

[Speaker 1] I started reading a new Stephen King novel.

[Speaker 2] Cool. What is the title?

[Speaker 1] It's called 11/22/63. It's like an alternate narrative to the events around the Kennedy assasination. I am really enjoying it so far.

[Speaker 2] That sounds cool. I didn't know S.K. wrote alternative history. Would you recommend it?

[Speaker 1] Yes I would, but only if you like Stephen King. A lot of his books follow his own unique writing style, so if you don't like his style then you might now like this one.

[Speaker 2] I've only read a couple of his books. But I liked them. I will check it out. I like to read on my Kindle. Do you like to read historical fiction?

[Speaker 1] I will read pretty much anything as long as it's good. I change up genres a lot. What is a historical fiction that you would recommend?

[Speaker 2] I have read many books by Ken Follett, but my favorite is The Pillars of The Earth.

[Speaker 1] Hmmm. I will have to check that one out. I will add it to my list. What is the nicest car you have driven at your day job?

[Speaker 2] A Rolls Royce. They are really the most luxurious feeling of all the cars I've driven. The most interesting car I drove today was a military jeep. I have no idea what year it was from, but it was primitive and rough. And stick shift. It was like riding the Kraken if it came ashore.

[Speaker 1] Wow, that is 2 very different cars. I would like to do that job some day.

[Speaker 2] It's a lot of rushing and then waiting. I could read during the slow times, but we have to be fully engaged every minute. They don't even like us to sit when there is nothing to do. They prefer we stand close to the stand or the driveway.

[Speaker 1] Yes and we enjoyed some wine with it as well.  How is your latest batch of apple wine coming along?

[Speaker 2] Great, sounds like a lovely evening :) It's coming along really well actually, next time you're over you can take a few bottles - it's quite strong though so be careful! Did you manage to get to the gym this morning?

[Speaker 1] Yes I did, still haven't gotten my walk in for the day.  How was your walk this morning???????????????????

[Speaker 2] You should walk to the gym, then it would be 2 birds with one stone! It was great, really nice to see my daughter looking so well - she's not got long left before she has the baby :) When was the last time you saw your kids?

[Speaker 1] Sorry for all the extra question marks, my keyboard got stuck.  My kids were home at Christmas and I probably won't see them until then.  Does your daughter know what she is having?

[Speaker 2] Haha that's ok, not like we have to worry about the amount of characters like the old days! Do you not miss your kids? I wouldn't be able to only see them once a year - it would break my heart! She's having triplets, but we don't know the gender of any of them yet :) want it to be a surprise! Do you have any grandchildren?

[Speaker 1] Yes i have two grandchildren, two boys.  It is hard only seeing them once a year, we are thinking of moving closer to them once I retire.  Triplets is exciting, I'm sure she is glad that you will be close to help.

[Speaker 2] Oh that will be nice, you will be roped into babysitting duties all of the time though! It's so exciting - weirdly there must be a gene in the family as her mum is one of triplets, and her mum before that was aswell!!

[Speaker 1] I have heard that multiples runs in the family.  I can't wait to babysit!

[Speaker 2] I suppose now you're older you're not out all evening anymore anyway, so would be nice to have the children for company :)

I like to dance with my wife. I like country music.

I listen to Darrell Scott.

I have kids that I saw at Christmas.

I look forward to babysitting my grandsons when I live near them.

I perform at concerts. I like to relax.

I grew up in the music industry.

I like Darrell Scott. I think Darrell Scott did good Hank Williams cover songs.

I make apple wine. My apple wine is potent. My pregnant daughter is having triplets. My daughter's mother and grandmother are also triplets.

[Speaker 1] Good news!! My daughter is moving to my hometown in a month! I'll be able to see my grandsons all the time!

[Speaker 2] Oh my goodness that is great news! You must be so excited about it!!!

[Speaker 1] I am! She has been swamped with taking care of them and im more than happy to help. Plus I get to see more of them like youve heard all the old folks say.

[Speaker 2] Aw that is so sweet - i'm sure she'll be so glad to have the extra help!

[Speaker 1] Definitely. I am happy she was able to find a job and get herself over here. I live on retirement and have expendable income.

[Speaker 2] That's great she's got a job - are you going to help her with childcare since you're retired?

[Speaker 1] I am. She wants the best for them and I can help with that. Plus having her around helps me with things too that I cant do as well as I used to.

[Speaker 2] It sounds like this is going to work out really well for both of you. Has she managed to get a place to live sorted?

[Speaker 1] Not yet. We are trying to find a realtor or someone who can help us with the realtor websites

[Speaker 2] Ugh it can be so stressful trying to find a place, I'm sure with a bit of luck and your help she'll find somewhere perfect for her and the boys

[Speaker 1] Fingers crossed. So there are triplets in your family. I cant imagine how busy that is at times.

[Speaker 2] Oh my goodness it can be an absolute mad house!! My daughter is so excited to have hers though I think she'll need a lot of extra help when they arrive

I listen to Darrell Scott.

I have kids that I saw at Christmas.

I have two grandsons. I miss my grandsons. I plan to move near my grandsons when I retire. I have a daughter and grandsons that are moving to my hometown in a month.

I perform at concerts. I like to relax.

I grew up in the music industry.

[Speaker 1] We found a realtor to help my daughter with finding a place to live down here!

[Speaker 2] Wow congratulations! What kind of houses are you looking at?

[Speaker 1] There are some cute condos on the water. That is what she wants, of course, but I am not sure she realizes we aren't buying the whole thing fo her.

[Speaker 2] Oh that might be a tough realization for her. Have you guys talked to her about that yet?

[Speaker 1] No. We never said it explicitly, but my wife figured we should do whatever it takes to con her into moving closer. That is what family is for, right? Haha sorry, started the wine a little early this evening.

[Speaker 2] Haha, I hear that. I might join you in a few minutes. Do you think she wants to move closer or she just can't pass up a potential house?

[Speaker 1] She has that new job and knows that we are the cheapest babysitters she will ever find. We really cannot wait for her to pick a place. That is really all that is in the way of having the grandkids closer.

[Speaker 2] That is all so wonderful. My daughter is having triplets, but it runs in the family so we are ready and so excited!

[Speaker 1] Yes, I know! How is everyone holding up? Are you about to burst with excitement?

[Speaker 2] It's a fever pitch over here! She has kept it a secret of the genders of the children, but no matter what I am going to love and spoil them with all my heart!

[Speaker 1] I know you will. I am imagining you drunk on apple wine and singing Hank Williams to them while all three stare at you like you're crazy. Hahahahaha that is a fun image. I am so happy for you.

[Speaker 2] Thank you so much! I'll try to hold off on that as long as possible, but that is definitely happening one day! haha

I listen to Darrell Scott.

I have kids that I saw at Christmas.

I am happy to help my daughter take care of her children. I am happy my daughter was able to find a job here. I live on retirement and have expendable income. I am trying with my daughter to find a realtor. I have a daughter who's looking for a home around where I live.We're looking for a condo close to the water, because that's what my daughter wants. We don't intend to pay for all of the condo. My wife and I haven't told my daughter yet that we're not paying for all of it. I'm drinking wine.

I perform at concerts. I like to relax.

I grew up in the music industry.

My daughter won't tell us the genders of the children. It doesn't matter to me. I will love and spoil them regardless.

[Speaker 1] My daughter just called and told us she's onto us! She knows we're not paying for all the condo, but she doesn't care, she wants the kids to be close to the grandparents too. YAY!

[Speaker 2] Well that's great news. As long as it's a place that her and the kids will love, I'm sure she's okay with not having every bit paid for. Is it near the water like she wanted?

[Speaker 1] It's not as close as she wanted because the price of condos near the water is ridiculously high, but we managed to find one that's 20 mins bus ride away from the ocean and she likes it.

[Speaker 2] Well that's not bad at all. I mean, that is extremely close to the ocean. If she's happy with it, that's all that matters right?

[Speaker 1] Yeah of course! I'm glad with the outcome. By the way how is your daughter and her children doing?

[Speaker 2] Oh they are doing quite well. My daughter is busy as ever. I can't believe she still won't tell me the gender of the babies. She knows I'm waiting and waiting to find out. I was trying to find some clues but alas, no luck at all.

[Speaker 1] I know right like just why not?? It's not like gender is a big deal or some super secrets, but I guess it doesn't hurt to wait.

[Speaker 2] She wants it to be a surprise. I can understand where she is coming from. The other kids weren't like that but she's always been an odd one. By the way, you mentioned you were drinking some wine. What kind do you have?

[Speaker 1] I have mostly white wines and red wines, and my favorite wine is Syrah because it has a deep fruit flavor that I thoroughly enjoy!

[Speaker 2] I still want to send you some of my homemade apple wine. It's delicious if I say so myself. While it has a fruity taste, it still packs a punch in terms of flavor and depth!

[Speaker 1] Oh my god that would be great! Thanks so much! I love trying homemade wines especially because they have more variations and reflect the owner's taste.

[Speaker 2] I do it mostly as a hobby and because I'm a big wine fan myself. I've had some people ask to buy some because they liked it so much. I'll make sure to get you some as soon as I can. I have a bottle waiting for you.
