Speaker 1
I have twelve brothers and sisters. I live on the beach with my parents. I want to buy my own house. I love having horses and riding them. I will move to the country soon.
Speaker 2
I have blonde hair and blue eyes. My parents are both from the north. I lived in alaska for 3 years. I want to retire on a beach. I have a small smart car.
Speaker 1
I live in the city with other people. I have always had to share a room. I went to college. I live near an ocean where hurricanes occur. I have a car. I also have horses. I grew up living near the beach so I have lost interest in it. My hair is brown. My female horse is chestnut brown.
Speaker 2
I haven't bought a house before. I live in a city in Alaska. I don't live with my parents. My parents live up North from where I live. I don't like hurricanes. I like the beach. I am not interested in traveling. I am blonde. I have a blue eye.
Speaker 1
Hello! You know anything about buying houses?
Speaker 2
Nop.... I have no idea.
Speaker 1
That's cool. I want to move out of the city and get my own place.
Speaker 2
I am thinking of that too I have been living in alaska for 3 yrs.
Speaker 1
I never even had my own room growing up or in college.
Speaker 2
That is not too god my parent stays in north we are not together.
Speaker 1
We have always lived by the ocean, but I want to move away from hurricanes.
Speaker 2
I dont like hurricanes too do you have a car?
Speaker 1
I do. I would love to be out in the country with my horses.
Speaker 2
It will be great I dont like travelling just like going to the beach.
Speaker 1
When you grew up on the beach you get over it quickly.
Speaker 2
Okay, what is the colour of your hair mine is blonde.
Speaker 1
Mine is chestnut brown, like the color of my mare.
Speaker 2
Great... I habe a blue eye what about you?

Speaker 1
I have found a few houses outside of the city that I'm interested in touring. Want to see pictures? 
Speaker 2
How were you able to find it?
Speaker 1
I did some searching online and managed to find some great results.
Speaker 2
Are you going to look at a lot of houses? Are you looking to rent, or buy a house?
Speaker 1
I'm hoping to buy. I like the freedom of it. You don't have to ask your landlord for permission to do things with the house.
Speaker 2
Yes, that is true! Will you be able to bring your horses to the place you might buy, or do you board them someplace?
Speaker 1
I board them. It's just easier than trying to find a place with a barn and enough field space for them. Farms are expensive and there's a lot of maintenance that I just can't do on my own
Speaker 2
Yes, that makes sense. What did you study in college?
Speaker 1
Psychology. What about you? Did you go to college?
Speaker 2
Yes, that is how I ended up in Alaska. I wanted to go to college here and I liked it so much that I ended up ataying.
Speaker 1
Is it really cold up there year round? I live in Maryland so we get a good variety between the different seasons.
Speaker 2
We get decent summer weather. I really like that part of Alaska. I don't really like travelling, but I like the beach. Do you?

I am not interested in traveling. I am blonde. I have a blue eye.  I moved here because I was interested in going to college here. I like the summer weather in Alaska. I don't like traveling. I do like the beach.
Speaker 1
I toured one of the houses that I found online-- it was a nice place! I am going to place a bid on it and see if I can buy it. It is exciting because it is near the place that I board my horses at! 
Speaker 2
That is great that it is close to your horses. How big is the house?
Speaker 1
It has three bedrooms so I would rent 2 of them out. I don't want to live alone anyways. I think it's a good option. Do you prefer living alone or with people?
Speaker 2
That is good that you will rent two rooms out and be able to not pay so much yourself. I think I am in between liking living alone or with people. I like being able to interact with people, but I do not like the mess.
Speaker 1
Yeah, that's the idea. I think it's too lonely to live alone, plus you can pay for a housecleaner once a week. That usually saves a lot of arguments.
Speaker 2
Yes, it is to lonely sometimes being alone. But sometimes its good because you have it nice and quiet. That is a good ideal about a housecleaner once a week. When do you think they will accept your offer?  
Speaker 1
I guess that's true too. When I want to be alone I leave the house and go on a walk. I'm not sure if they'll accept the offer actually..
Speaker 2
That is good going for a walk when you want to be alone. Why do you not think they will accept the offer?
Speaker 1
I think so too. Because it can be competitive. Sometimes a lot of people are applying for the same home. We'll see. How do you like to spend alone time?
Speaker 2
Hopefully they will accept your offer. I like to listen to music and go for a walk. Or sit outside with nature.
Speaker 1
I hope so too, thanks. THat's nice. I like to listen to music too, especially while walking. What type of music do you usually listen to?
Speaker 2
I listen to a lot of music. It depends on how I am feeling that way. What about you?

I am looking to move to a new house. I am looking to live with roommates, or at least let strangers pay me to live in my house. I enjoy other people's company and would prefer to not be alone if I had the choice. I enjoy listening to music.
Speaker 2
I haven't bought a house before. I live in a city in Alaska. I don't live with my parents. My parents live up North from where I live. I live by myself. I don't like hurricanes. I like the beach.

Speaker 1
The real estate agent just called and the seller accepted my offer on the new house I wanted!
Speaker 2
That is the best news! Congratulations!!! Are you going to have to have roommates?
Speaker 1
Yes, I am actually searching on Craigslist, but am only finding sketchy people.  Any tips?
Speaker 2
Maybe look into a church or at work? Friends of friends? How did you find your current roommates?
Speaker 1
Some friends of friends, but my new house is further away.
Speaker 2
Well, it never hurts to ask. Maybe they know of someone up where the new house is? I don't know if I would advertise too much. You don't want those sketchy folks to know you're alone. 
Speaker 1
Yeah, I've lived with sketchy people before.  We always had random people stopping by overnight and I never really figured out what they were doing.
Speaker 2
That's scary. I don't think I could do that. I would rather live alone that have that experience. 
Speaker 1
I wouldn't recommend it. Have you ever had roommates?
Speaker 2
In college, but that's it. I like the idea of sharing expenses, but I do like to have my own space. Much quieter.
Speaker 1
I might decide to live by myself eventually, but I do like saving a lot of money on rent.
Speaker 2
That's true. I guess it's a tradeoff. I'm not willing to make that right now. Luckily, right now, I don't have to. Living alone suits me, at least for right now.

I like to reduce costs. I like to have my own space. I have enough money to afford living alone.
Speaker 1
I know you said you don't HAVE to think about roommates, but would you consider it if it was me?
Speaker 2
What would be a good reason for me to consider you as a roommate?
Speaker 1
well, I mean I think so.  I really want to reduce costs and plus I mean we know each other and I don't think we'd kill each other, lol.  What do you think about it?  hmm.?
Speaker 2
I like you well enough but I also like my peace an quiet. I really like being alone with my thoughts. 
Speaker 1
yeah yeah, I know, lol.  Just tosssing ideas around.  Must be nice to have all that financial security though, hahah.  But I think its more just having someone there, you know. But, it's fine. How did you find your place? 
Speaker 2
I will think about it for a few days. I do like the place. It has a very homey feel. I really don't need financial help but it is always nice to save a few bucks so I will consider you being my roomie.
Speaker 1
Ok, thanks.  No pressure.  I mean I am not like in a dire situation, it was just a random thought that came into my head, so I thought I'd just ask.  
Speaker 2
I'm sure if you are accustomed to not living alone it would be a really big change for you. I can see why you would feel lonely and bored.
Speaker 1
Well I mean I wouldnt say that, I just like being around familiar people.  At this point, I dont really want to get to know completely new people.  I am not lonely or anything - I mean I got my horses :). Whenever I get my own place, I want a backyard for a dog too :)
Speaker 2
Will your horses be moving in too? I always wanted one for a roommate but when I've asked they always say nay.
Speaker 1
hahahaha.  I wish I could bring the horse with me, but they are staying put :).  In some ways thats easier  for me.  What did you want to do this weekend?  I was thinking of trying one of those new restaurants that opened.  I love Italian food and its a new place!
Speaker 2
Italian would be great! You know me, anything edible...
