The feelings in my life...

Lesson 39 - Going Cross-Country John: Have you ever gone cross-country? Kathy: Yeah. When I was in high school, my parents rented an RV and took us on a road trip for a whole summer. John: What states did you see? Kathy: We went from California, all the way to Massachusetts. We even took that famous highway, Route 66. John: Cool. So what was your favorite state? Kathy: That’s a tough call, bu..

Lesson 38 Worst Vacation Kathy: I heard your trip left a lot to be desired. John: Don’t remind me. I don’t even want to go there. Kathy: Why? What happened? John: The rain wouldn’t let up the whole time I was there. Nobody told me it was monsoon season there. Kathy: What a bummer. So what did you do? John: I was stuck inside the whole time. I was bored out of my mind. Kathy: I guess you g..

Lesson 37 Navajo Indian Reservation Kathy: Can you recommend some places to visit around here? Desk clerk: If you’re a nature person, you can visit the state park about 10 miles from here. Kathy: I’ve come across so many parks already. What else is there? Desk clerk: Well, there’s an Indian reservation nearby if you’re interested. Kathy: That sounds intriguing. What can I expect to see ..

Lesson 36 Going Backpacking John: Are you all set for your vacation? Kathy: Almost. I only have to work out last minute details in the itinerary. John: Is this your first backpacking trip? Kathy: No. I’m an old veteran when it comes to backpacking. John: Did you say that you were going to Africa? Isn’t that a little risky for two female travelers? Kathy: Not at all. We’re not really going ..

Lesson 35 Live Gig Kathy: What are you up to tonight? Anything special? John: I’m going to see a live gig at the House of Blues. I have VIP tickets. Kathy: You lucky dog! I hear they have great concerts there. John: Only the finest. I’m going to see an up and coming blues group called “Bobbyblue.” Kathy: Didn’t they open for Hoobastank while they were on tour? John: Yeah! So you’ve ..

Lesson 34 Getting the Tickets From the Scalper Kathy: Look at the line of people who’re waiting for tickets. We don’t have a snowball chance in hell of getting in! John: You’ve got nothing to fret over. I’ve already got the tickets. Kathy: You did?! How did you manage that? John: I got them from one of the scalpers in front of the theater. Kathy: You sly thing. That option never crossed..

Lesson 33 Going Clubbing Kathy: Those bouncers knew you by name! You must be a regular here. John: My friend is a part owner of this place. He lets me in whenever I want. Kathy: Wow, lucky you. It’s nice to have a friend with connections. John: It pays to know people in high places or with money. Kathy: No kidding. They come in real handy sometimes, don’t they? John: They sure do. Kathy: I ..

Lesson 32 Something to Help Me Wind Down John: Over here, Kathy! Kathy: Wow! This place is jam-packed! It looks like this is the place to be. John: I heard about the place through word of mouth. Everyone’s been raving about it. Kathy: You sure know how to keep up with the latest social scene. John: I wouldn’t have it any other way. I live for this stuff. Kathy: So what should I order? I nee..

Lesson 22 Don’t be Arrogant Tim: I was wondering if you’d like to have dinner after work. Kathy: I’m sorry but I’m completely swamped with work. Tim: You still have to eat. I know a fantastic four star Italian restaurant near here. Kathy: I don’t really care for Italian. Tim: How about a Jim Carry movie that opened last week? You could blow off some steam with some humor. Kathy: I’m..

Lesson 20 - Skin Trouble John: What’s wrong with your face? Kathy: I’m not sure what’s wrong with my face. My face broke out all of a sudden. John: Are you stressed out about something? Kathy: Not really. I think I’m allergic to my new makeup. John: It looks serious. Kathy: This has never happened to me before. I rarely have skin trouble. John: This is the first time I’ve seen you like..
