I live on the 32nd floor of my building. I like watching sunsets during summer. I work as a part time plumber. My father had a blue dodge truck. I like to eat poached eggs for breakfast.
Speaker 2
I am girl. I am a young girl who is still in highschool. I enjoy marching band in the fall and concert band in the season. My parents are both teachers. My favorite subject is english.

Speaker 2
My favorite season is Fall. I am in high school. Both of my parents are teachers. My best class in school is English.
Speaker 1
Hey which season is your favourite?
Speaker 2
I love fall, its marching band season.
Speaker 1
True! But I love a warm breeze on my shoulders watching summer sunsets.
Speaker 2
Im still in high scool, these days we dont see much of summer.
Speaker 1
That's not true. Plenty of break time!.
Speaker 2
My parents both teach so I dont really.
Speaker 1
Well if you guys ever need help with your toilets... I'm your gal.
Speaker 2
What is that supposed to mean? Do I need to get my parents?
Speaker 1
Haha no! Don't worry. Just trying to get my name out there for plumbing work.
Speaker 2
Ok and if you need help with english homework, im your gal!
Speaker 1
Don't mock me. :o.

Speaker 1
I had to fix the worst water leak today. My clothes were SOAKED!
Speaker 2
Oh, wow! Do you carry extra clothes with you?
Speaker 1
I don't typically but it seems like a good idea. I should probably throw at least an extra shirt in the truck. Good idea.
Speaker 2
Yeah, I definitely wouldn't want to have to work all day in wet clothes. At least it's not wintertime!
Speaker 1
Ha ... so true. How are things going in school? When do you graduate?
Speaker 2
School is going fine. I'm almost out for the summer, and I can't wait! I will graduate next year.
Speaker 1
That's great. Do you have plans for college after high school? 
Speaker 2
I'll probably just go to a local college. My grades aren't really good enough to get into a university. Did you go to college before you became a plumber?
Speaker 1
No but I did an internship which was great and help put me contact with the right people. Have you thought about going in to teaching since both your parents teach?
Speaker 2
My parents would love that, but I don't think I want to spend the rest of my life in school! An internship shounds intneresting though. I might consider that instead.
Speaker 1
We'll you are young and have lots of time to decide. I do know many older people who decide to go into teaching after they've tried other fields. Just something to think about.
Speaker 2
Yeah, right now I'm just keeping my options open. How long have you been a plumber?
 7 hours
Speaker 1
I like to watch Summer sunsets. I am a plumber. I can fix a water leak. I have a truck.  I did not go to college.
Speaker 2
My favorite season is Fall. I am in high school. I am going to graduate next year. I plan on going to a local college. I don't have good grades. Both of my parents are teachers. My best class in school is English. I am considering an internship.
Speaker 1
Did you do any studying today?
Speaker 2
No, I decide to just relax and play some video games. I guess that wasn't smart cause study would help my grades.
Speaker 1
I know playing games was fun though. You should see if your parents can help you study some to bring your grades up.
Speaker 2
My parents think that I should be able to do it on my own since they are teachers. 
Speaker 1
That is crazy. You think they would want to help due to them being teachers but I guess I get it. Where are you wanting to intern at?
Speaker 2
I want to internship at the gaming studio. I would love to make video games. They bring me joy, but my parents just don't understand.
Speaker 1
That sounds like a cool place to intern at. That also sounds like a good job. Being able to do something like that you would love. I guess being teachers they don't see the point in video games.
Speaker 2
No, they think it takes away from learning. But we all need something to relax and destress.
Speaker 1
Yes, especially being in high school. But at least you still want to go to college they should look at it that way.
Speaker 2
They don't care. They want me to be something else. 
Speaker 1
What do they want you to do instead?
Speaker 2
The normal things...doctor, lawyer. I just don't want to do that. Boring. I'm sure they will understand one day.

Speaker 1
I just heard about a gaming internship from my friend.
Speaker 2
is it at that the same company you're interning at?
Speaker 1
No its another one, its still accepting applications. You should consider doing it this summer to get experience and a better feel at what kind of work you want to do.
Speaker 2
That would really awesome, Share me the link when you can. Thanks. I love video games. Which game are you playing nowadays?
Speaker 1
Its a mix of games at the moment, the newest release being Guilty Geart: Strive. I am not that good at fighting games, but I want to get better at them.
Speaker 2
Cool I like fighting games. I haven't played this one. You must have played all those classics right? Street Fighter, King of fighters, Tekken, DefJam, Dead or Alive those games were amazing. I'm on combat games now.
Speaker 1
I definitely played a lot of other fighting games in the past. I do play some combat games here and then, but I always seem to not know which ones to play. Which one have you played that you recommend others should play as well?
Speaker 2
I understand it is really hard to pick, there are tons of games now. I would recommend to follow Call of duty, I'm in love with their Black Ops series, their zombie version is next level. I have played all of hours in those. It is in my top tier.
Speaker 1
Sounds like a lot of fun, I'll give the series a try when I get a chance. So are combat games the ones you want to work on when you get a job in the gaming industry, or do you want to make games in another genre?
Speaker 2
Combat and adventure games like Tomb Raider and Horizon. Adventure games always have an interesting story to it so definitely i love to work adventure games for sure. what about you if you could work on a game ?
Speaker 1
I am not too sure at the moment, I think it would be cool to work on an RPG or maybe a story driven game with lots of cinematics. I wish I worked on God of War that is for sure.
Speaker 2
That would be so cool. You should let me play first when you make it lol because i love God of War gameplay, you can't get enough play of that.

Speaker 1
Did you get any studying in today?
Speaker 2
No I did not, I just played video games. What did yo do?
Speaker 1
I worked most of the day. There was a big water leak downtown. Now I just started playing WoW and it is fun! what game are you playing?
Speaker 2
busy day. I am playing street fighter today. have you played?
Speaker 1
Yes. I have always enjoyed street fighter over mortal kombat, but they are both fun. I am really nervous because I signed up to go on a raid with my new clan in WoW tonight.
Speaker 2
Yes they are very fun. Have you done that before?
Speaker 1
I haven't gone on a raid in a very long time and I playing a healer so it's going to be my job to keep the tank alive. I'm scared I wipe the raid if I do poorly. Do you play WoW?
Speaker 2
Oh yah, that sounds intense. Ive only played a couple times. I should give it a try again soon.
Speaker 1
It's an awesome game, but very easy to get addicted to lol. I like to play Horde. You should try it! Do you still want to make video games for a living?
Speaker 2
Yes I hope to one day. Still hoping my parents will be on board and support my decision, it would mean a lot to me. 
Speaker 1
Maybe you can convince them by showing them how financially successful some of the video game developers are? They might be thinking games are for kids, but it's adults that play most of the games now.
Speaker 2
That is very true, maybe showing them some successful people who make them would help them support my decision. Thank you for that advice!
