ScriptSofia: So at home in Bulgaria I like to go out and be

with my friends, you know, have fun. We are all so busy with school and all, studying all the time, so then on the weekend we like to get together and do something. We go to movies or we go shopping, you know, just walk around and look at the stores to see the latest fashions, what clothes to wear. Or sometimes we play sports, like swimming or tennis. Or sometimes we do nothing, you know, we just hang out and talk and relax and not think about anything important. My parents are really strict. They want me to study hard all the time. So when I have a little free time, I like to hang out with my friends and do something fun. Laugh. I think it’s the same everywhere, isn’t it?

ScriptKaitlin: Yeah, I guess it’s the same. I live near Los

Angeles. My friends and I, we study pretty hard, but not so much, really. I mean, we got OK grades, but we weren’t studying all the time. My parents weren’t happy about that. They got angry with me, but I don’t know. I’m more of an action person. I like to get out, do stuff, have some fun, be with people. I just can’t study all the time, so I had a part-time job at a café for a couple of years. Yeah, so, anyway, my friends and I, we all like to hang out together. We go to movies or shopping at the mall and, uh, we go to the beach a lot.

ScriptEmi: For me, it’s kind of similar. My friends and I, we

all study a lot. And on the weekend, it’s about the same. I hang out with friends, go to movies, or go shopping. Oh, and go to Karaoke. We all like to go to Karaoke and sing really loud, especially after a big exam. We finish the exam and we just go and scream really loud and laugh and forget about school. It feels great! Sometimes we go to dance clubs on the weekends. I don’t go very often, but some of my friends do. We are so busy with school, so I like to be with friends when I can.
