[speaker001:] so, how's your course going? Do you like it?
[speaker002:] i like my professors and the classes, but it's a lot of work.
[speaker001:] what are you specializing in?
[speaker002:] right now, I'm doing some research into the languages of different African tribes.
[speaker001:] that sounds really interesting. Can you speak Swahili?
[speaker002:] yes, I learned how to speak it when I was little.
[speaker001:] really? How did you do that?
[speaker002:] well, I grew up in Africa, so I learned quite a few different languages.
[speaker001:] that's amazing. Are you doing well in your classes?
[speaker002:] I don't know because I haven't received my test results yet.
[speaker001:] when did you take your exams?
[speaker002:] about two weeks ago.
[speaker001:] how do you think you did?
[speaker002:] I left feeling pretty confident about my score, but I heard that my professors are very strict graders, so I'm a bit nervous.
[speaker001:] I'm sure you'll do well. Did you study hard?
[speaker002:] You know me; I'm always studying!
[speaker001:] don't worry. If you don't do well, no one can!
[speaker002:] Thanks for the vote of confidence, Justin!
