But the amazing thing was here we were, all these different people, with all these we were, all these different people, with all these different accents, and we could communicate.A: Wow, that’s cool.4.A: I can’t believe it!

What are you talking about?Steve: Look at this. I just bought a donut. I’m so sick of the clerk wrapping each pastry individually, then taping the bags shut, then putting those bags in another bag, folding it down, and then taping that bag shut. I can’t take it anymore. It’s crazy and it’s bad for the environment. Trish: How long have you been living here? Don’t you know that’s the way it is?Steve: I just want them to stick ‘em in a napkin for me , so I can eat while I’m walking to class. Trish: There you go again. Don’t you know it’s rude to eat while you walk?Steve: I’m so tired of this place. I don’t have time to sit down and eat. People here are too inflexible, and they have too many rules.Trish: Yeah, right, Steve, so you’re gonna convert everybody here to your way of doi ng things? Steve: Yeah, there has to be more individual freedom to do whatever you want.Trish: Why don't you just relax and go with the flow?Steve: Go with the flow? The whole system is a waste of my time. The clerks here should learn how to be more efficient, like in the U.S.Trish: What are you talking about? When I was in the U.S., the clerks were really rude. They just ignore you, and seem offended if you want anything. Don't you think it’s better this way? Steve: Are you kidding?Trish: Well, I kind of like it. It’s nice to relax and enjoy the moment while your packages are being wrapped. I like all of the traditions, and the care and attention that people give you, and the manners.

The color is pretty impressive, too, don’t you think?Bob: Yeah. You always have the latest, don’t you?Andy: You bet. This machine is right on the cutting edge of t echnology. You wouldn’t believe how much it can do. Apart from e-mail and free Internet service, I can watch TV on it while surfing. With this new desktop program, I can watch TV, e-mail, streamline videos, and scan artwork. And it’s not that expensive to upgrade, either. Uh, speaking of computers, how’s yours?Bob: Yeah, it’s fine. Thanks!Andy: I know I gave you a good deal. It was only a year old. Still, are you sure it meets all your needs? Maybe you should think about upgrading.Bob: you know me – the only things tat I need a computer for are e-mail and word processing. Andy: Yeah, but does it give you room to expand? If you want to be able to do more two years from now, will your computer be able to handle it?Bob: Well I don’t know. But I kind of doubt that I’ll need a new one anytime soon.Andy: Yeah, but with computers, there’s always a new model coming out that can do so much more. If you don’t keep up with technology, you'll get left behind.Bob: well, what’s wrong with that?ScriptDoctor: Hi, Julie. How are you?Julie: Her, Dr. Cassidy. I’m actually fine. It’s just that I’ve been a little tired the last few days, and my stomach is kinda upset.Doctor: Well, that doesn’t surprise me. I have some news that you might find exciting. You’re pregnant.Julie: No way!Doctor: Yes, you’re going to have a baby.Julie: Are you kidding me? Ah, I need a cigarette.Doctor: That’s the last thing you need. You need to stop smoking, and immediately.Julie: But I can’t stop smoking.Doctor: For your baby’s health, Julie, I’m afraid you have to.Julie: But smoking is the only way I can relax! It helps me when I’m stressed out.Doctor: Now, there are a number of things that are extremely important for pregnant mothers, and not smoking is only one of them. Another is to stop drinking alcohol. Do you drink?Julie: Well, I have a glass of wine with dinner, but I’m not an alcoholic. And I thought a little bit was supposed to be good for you anyway.Doctor: If you drink while you’re pregnant, your child coul d have birth defects. I cannot emphasize enough, Julie, the importance of quitting.Julie: Okay, then. What else is there?Doctor: Well, coffee.Julie: Do I have to give up everything I enjoy? I need coffee to wake me up in the morning. Doctor: I’m afraid,Julie, you’ll have to stop drinking that, too. Caffeine affects the baby’s heart rate. And, it’s also important to get regular exercise.Julie: You’re kidding! I have to quit smoking, stop drinking alcohol and coffee, and on top of all that, I have to start exercising? Boy, it is amazing that anybody ever gets pregnant.Doctor: I really hope you’ll take this seriously, Julie.ScriptSue: Randy, what’s going on in this picture? It looks like you have blood all over your shirt. Randy: No, that’s not blood. It’s ketchup.Sue: Ketchup? What happened?Randy: This happened when Tim and I were traveling around Asia. We were in Bangkok.Randy: …and we had reservations to catch an overnight bus to Chiang Mai.Sue: Yeah.Randy: And we were waiting at a ki ng of restaurant that was sort of a travel agency…and we went early, but the bus didn’t come, and I was getting kind of worried.Sue: Yeah…but what’s that got to do with ketchup?Randy: So, I was beginning to wonder if we’d been cheated, because we’d alrea dy paid for our tickets in advance.Sue: Right.Randy: Then, finally, a van pulled up , and we thought, no , this is not the bus…but then everyone else who was waiting pushed right past us and jumped in , and, bam!—just like that, the van drove away. And then this sweet little Thai woman, who was the tickets, came up to us.Sue: Yeah, and …Randy: …and she said, “Why you no get on?” And Tim was like, “ That wasn’t the bus, was it?” “Only one, why you not get on?” And I didn’t know she was talking about…Sue: So what happened?Randy: Well, the travel agent jus shrugged and turned and went inside her shop. Neither of us could believe it. I started to get really angry , like we’d been cheated, and now it’s dark and we’re stranded in this little restaurant…Sue: Oh, no…Randy: I followed her inside, I started arguing. I told her, “We paid for the bus. You didn’t tell us to look for a van. Now you have to get us a taxi to Chiang Mai. Now.” And I started pointing at the clock. I think that was the last straw for t he woman, because she started shouting. “You no go. You no go Chiang Mai!” She grabbed a ketchup bottle off the table you know, one of those plastic squirt ketchup bottles, and she squirted ketchup at me!Sue: No! She didn’t!Randy: Yeah! She did. And then she threw the bottle at me. And Tim snapped the picture. Just then the same van pulled up and the woman said, “Now you go.”Sue: So you got on the van.Randy: Yeah, we ended up at the bus terminal, where this big, air-conditioned tour bus was waiting to go to Chiang Mai. And all the people who had pushed ahead of us earlier were there, waiting to leave. I felt SO stupid for getting angry at the woman and making such a fool of myself. Sue: You must have felt terrible.Randy: Yeah, I wished there was some way I could go back and apologize to her. I realized that I have to be more patient, especially when I’m in another country.ScriptEd: Are you worried about having enough money? Are you worried about paying your bills? Well, worry no more!Customer-1: I use d to watch every penny. But now I’m worth four million dollars, and it’s all thanks to Steven Crowe!Customer-2: I used to get headaches from worrying about money.

Then I got Steven Crowe’s videos, and learned how to make real money.Ed: “Real money.” That’s the name of this 3-video set by Steven Crowe. Let Steven show you how to become financially independent buying and selling real estate.Steven Crowe: Hi! I’m Steven Crowe. I used to worry about money, too. I felt like a victim of the system. But then I found a way to make the system work—for me.Ed: What’s the trick, Steven?Steven Crowe: There’s no trick, Ed. It’s simple, once you understand how real estate really works. All you need to know is how to buy low and sell high. And that’s exactly what my videos teach you to do.Ed: And you can get really rich?Steven Crowe: Just ask some people who have “Real Money.”Customer-1: After I got the “Real Money” videos, I bought my first house, following Steven’s simple rules. Six months later I sold it and bought two more houses. A year after that, I had enough money to quit my job.

The stupid train was late again, and I missed my connection, and…gosh, I’m tired already, and the day hasn’t even started.Lori: How long is your commute?Carrie: Almost an hour and a half, on a good day. Three hours of my life every day, five days a week, you know. I’ve got to wake up at six in the morning just to make it in to work by nine or so.I feel like a techno-self.Lori: that is long. I can walk here in 15 minutes. But you know, at least your commute is green. You can look at the trees and small towns…it must be nice.Carrie: For the first 20 minutes yeah. But as soon as the train gets closer to the city, it is all concrete and steel. That’s when it starts to get really crowded. Today so many people were in the train that I felt like a sardine in a big sardine can.Lori: Well, you could always move closer to the office.Carrie: But I love living in the country. The air is so fresh and clean, and I can have a bigger place and it’s safe and all that. I just wish I had more time to enjoy it. Sometimes it seems like my whole life is get up early/take the train/work all day/take the train home/go to bed, and then wale up and do it all over again.Lori: Wel l, can’t you find a way to make the trip more worthwhile?Carrie: Well, I read the newspaper and sometimes I bring a book, but I don’t really enjoy it. Lori: How about audiotapes or CDs? There’re novels or language learning tapes, relaxation tapes, relaxation tapes , all kinds of stuff on tape and CD.Carrie: Yeah, good idea, maybe I’ll look into it. Anything will be better than complaining about this commute all the time.Lori: Yeah, that’s for sure!ScriptAnna: Margaret, what’s the scariest thing that ev er happened to you?Margaret: The scariest thing? Surviving the San Jose earthquake.Anna: You were in the San Jose earthquake? Tell me what happened.Margaret: Well, I was living in an apartment downtown with my friend Julia. And we were still sleep on a Tuesday morning, and a little after six o’clock, there was this horrible sound and the floor was just bouncing and rolling like waves, all at the same time.Anna: Oh my gosh! What did you do?Margaret: well, it took a second or two to figure out what was going on—that it was an earthquake. Then I climbed out of bed and under the table, and I shouted at Julia to come, but she just pulled the covers over her head like it was a bad dream or something.Anna: Whoa!Margaret: It lasted 24 seconds, and then it stopped. And Julia and I could hear people talking outside, so we tried to go out the front door , but it was jammed shut. And then the first aftershock hit.Anna: That must have been horrifying!Margaret: Well, I remember that someone shouted, “Get out of there, quickly!” And we shouted back, “We can’t! The door won’t open.” So they said, “Well, come out the window.” But I called out, “it’s too high up,” because we were living on the second floor. “Not any more,” the person shouted back. So, we looked out the window and , sure enough, we were down on the ground! Anna: Your second floor apartment was on the ground?Margaret: We couldn’t believe it. We opened the window and crawled out, and somebody helped us over all this rubble. Once we were down safely, we turned around and looked back at our apartment building.

They’re very traditional, so I’m afraid of telling them that I’m engaged. I’m worried that they won’t let me marry him.Dr. Monroe: Hmm.Sunhee: I can’t go against my parents’ will, but this is the man I want to marry.Dr. Monroe: Hmm. That’s Sunhee’s problem, folks. Now, what’s your advice to her?Sunhee: Hello. What’s your advice for our worried friend?Carla: Hello. I’m Carla, from Canada, and I married a Chinese man five years ago. When I first told my parents I wanted to marry a foreigner with different religious beliefs, they were very angry. You see, they’re very traditional. They’ve always expected me to marry someone Canadian, from the same religious background.Dr. Monroe: Then what happened?Carla: For four years, they hardly talked to me, and they never came to visit us. it was like they disowned me…Dr. Monroe: Four years, you say. After four years something changed?Carla: Yes. When our little girl was born, I sent my parents a picture of her, and wrote, “Your granddaugh ter would like to see you.” A week later they called, and a month after that they came to see us – well, they came to see my daughter, any-way. Now they’re trying –they still aren’t comfortable with my husband, but they’re trying to understand him.Dr. Mo nroe: So, what’s your advice?Carla: Don’t give in to tradition. Marry the person you love. But have your first child soon –don’t wait four years like I did. That’s too long to be divided from your parents.Dr. Monroe: Sounds like good advice to me.ScriptSarah: You know, Richard, I really think we ought to fix up our apartment a little.Richard: What for?

We can go there and get a few simple things, just make it feel like a home.Richard: A few things? Oh, man, this is going to cost money.Sarah: it doesn’t have to cost a lot.Richard: Why can’t we just leave it the way it is? I like it. I feel comfortable here. You start putting a lot of nice things around and it’s going to be a museum.Sarah: But, Richa rd, we’re not the only ones that are going to be here. We want to have friends over, you know, have people over to study. They’ve got to have places to sit.Richard: Hey, that’s a good idea. We could get a couple of psychedelic posters and a lava lamp. Get a black light. Crank up the stereo. We could have cool parties here.Sarah: Parties, Richard? Richard, we are not going to have any time to party. We are going to be way too busy studying. That's what we’re in college for!Richard: College is about having parties about having friends over. I don’t want something that looks like my parents’ house.Sarah: Look. It doesn’t have to look like your parents’ house. We just need a few simple things like chairs. Maybe some plants you know, it’ll just make it nice a nd homey.Richard: Homey?
