[User] ha ha.  It was amazing!  I really didn't feel sick because I hadn't eaten lunch or dinner with how busy the day was.  It is so sinfully rich though. Double layered with icing in the middle.

[User] It was awful. I had a piano solo with a band that I joined and we play all over the place. Anyway, I bombed it and forgot a section so skipped forward and fumbled with the notes. Crushing.

[Assistant] They will get over it

[User] One night, I was abducted by aliens. They probed me and I'm afriad they will come back.

[Assistant] That's a pretty wild story. Why do you think the aliens chose you in particular?

[Assistant] Well be sure to lock your doors and windows before bed tonight, hopefully that will keep them out.


[System] terrified: I promised my daughter I would watch IT with her tonight. I keep postponing it because I am too scared.

[Assistant] I promised my daughter I would watch IT wih her tonight.

[Assistant] Oh wow, that's a pretty scary movie.  I'd want company while watching it too.

[Assistant] I am too scared though. I don't like horror films at all

[Assistant] I get what you mean.  Some films just aren't for some people.  It takes some courage to watch.

[Assistant] I promised so I hope I can do it

[Assistant] Good luck.  But besides it being scary it's a good film in general.  Hope you two can enjoy it.


[System] confident: I have a test at work tomorrow to see if I can get a promotion.

[User] It very well could have been. I'm sorry, that sucks.

[Assistant] IT does. I am wondering if it will turn up. Trying to be optimistic


[System] disgusted: A kid I went to school with is in jail for harming a puppy!

[User] A kid I went to school with is in jail for harming a puppy, what a vile human!

[Assistant] That is terrible.

[User] It really is, what possesses someone to do that?

[Assistant] I don't know. They should be locked up though. Hurting a person is next.


[System] anxious: I was super nervous about the day today as a semi family member has been acting up and I didn't want them to ruin anyones day. They did unfortunately. I'll just never understand people who like to make everyone else miserable just because they are.

[User] I was super nervous about the day today as a semi family member has been acting up and I didn't want them to ruin anyones day.

[User] Oh, that is nerve-racking.You have to be on-guard. Did they behave themselves?

[User] They did unfortunately. I'll just never understand people who like to make everyone else miserable just because they are.

[User] Ugh. I don't understand that either. And they make everyone so anxious just be existing.

[User] Sorry they DIDN'T. I know right! Always walking on eggshells! I'll never get it! Just be in peace or behave. One of the two


[System] jealous: I wish I was my cat.  My cat gets to sleep all day.  Or eat.. Or sleep..

[User] I had to take my car to the mechanic the other day.  I don't know anything bout cars, but I know my guy is honest.

[User] Its nice to have a reliable person like that

[User] Yeah, it's hard to know who to trust, but I've known this guy for years, so I know I can count on him.

[User] I am sure he will do a good job


[System] impressed: My daughter showed me a poem she wrote. It was really good. I was plesantly surprised.

[Assistant] My daughter showed me a poem she wrote earlier today

[User] oh cool, what was it about?

[Assistant] IT was about going back to school. She had average grades in English last year. I was surprised it was so good.

[User] Wow that's nice, how old is she?

[Assistant] She is almost 14.


[System] angry: I was pretty mad tonight when my friend canceled on me. I was wanting to go out

[User] I was pretty upset tonight. My friend canceled plans on me

[Assistant] Did they have a good reason?

[User] None that they told me

[Assistant] Well maybe you can reschedule and do something even more fun


[System] angry: My son just wasted my soda all over his school papers. I am so upset

[Assistant] MY son just wasted my soda on some important papers.

[User] I am sorry, how important were they

[Assistant] I have to turn them into the school tomorrow. Now I will be late for work because I have to do new ones at the school in the morning.

[User] I am sorry, that sounds stressful

[Assistant] I hate being late but I have to get the papers in


[System] joyful: I was very happy when my friend invited me over tonight. It had been awhile

[User] I was happy when my friend invited me over tonight. It had been awhile

[User] It's always nice to visit with friends you haven't seen in a while.

[User] It was a good time too

[User] I'm happy to hear you enjoyed yourself!


[System] excited: Just recently started a new job for higher pay. Can't wait to see my paycheck!

[User] I recently got a job with better pay. I'm stoked to see my first paycheck.

[User] More money is always nice

[User] Oh yeah! And I don't have to work many more hours, which to me is the best part.

[User] That sounds awesome


[System] anticipating: a few weeks ago, my friend threw a birthday party and invited all my friends. i hadn't seen my any of them in awhile and had been kind of lonely.  for a week straight, i was so excited about the party that it was all i could think about

[User] i went to my friend's birthday party a few weeks ago

[User] Did you have fun?

[User] i did. i was looking forward to it all week, and it met my expectations.

[User] It's always nice when an event lives up to the hype. Was it at a bar or a house or where?


[System] proud: My daughter got straight As all year! She's so smart!

[User] My daughter got straight As all year long! She worked so hard!

[Assistant] That's great. I wish my daughter was determined like that.

[User] Does she try at all?

[Assistant] In the classes that she likes. It is pretty frustrating for me


[System] excited: I am so excited for my next birthday. Im turning 35

[Assistant] I'm turning 35 next year. I can't wait

[User] I hear 35 is the new 25!

[Assistant] Is it? lol. I plan to go on a cruise with my close friends. Hopefully they don't flake.

[User] I hope they don't either! Sounds like the perfect birthday celebration.

[Assistant] It will be whether they show up or not


[System] terrified: So I was coming home last night.. kinda late.  It was really dark and then a duck scared me to death.

[User] So I was coming home last night kinda late and It was really dark outside my house..

[User] There are some apps that allow a friend to follow your progress as you home. Will that make you feel safer?

[User] well what happened is i was putting my key in the door and this duck scared me half to death

[User] Ducks are scary, but they are more scared of you than you are of them.


[System] impressed: I was really impressed with this book I read. The author is a genius.

[User] I read this amazing book. The author is so smart!

[User] Whats it about?

[User] It's about black holes!

[User] oooh all that physics makes my head spin


[System] afraid: I was just diagnosed with breast cancer, just at its first stage, and I don't even know how to feel or what to do.  Its terrifying.

[User] I was just diagnosed with breast cancer, just at its first stage, and I don't even know how to feel or what to do. Its terrifying.

[User] Oh love! I can only imagine the feelings you must be experiencing. Do you have a good support system in place?

[User] I have a wonderful family and a couple close friends that have been with me through my other illnesses so I know they're be with me through this.  I wish I had gone plant based sooner because dairy is linked with very high risk of breast cancer.

[User] I'm so glad you have people to lean on -- though obviously, your experience is *yours* and no one can know exactly how you're feeling. Are you familiar with Kris Carr, with your interest in a plant-based approach to diet?

[User] Thank you. no, I haven't heard of him/her.  I am reading a lot of Dr. Joel Furhman's books. I will look into it.  Thank you so much!

[User] She's very inspiring -- you'll love her! Sending you ALL the best in healing vibes, love, and light!


[System] disappointed: My out-of-town relatives are visiting, and there was on relative whom I really enjoy speaking with, that I didn't get to hang out with much while they were here. I won't get to seem them for a while, so it kind of stinks we didn't make the most of our time this weekend.

[Assistant] My out-of-town relatives are visiting, and there was on relative whom I really enjoy speaking with, that I didn't get to hang out with much while they were here. I won't get to seem them for a while, so it kind of stinks we didn't make the most of our time this weekend

[User] Oh well, there is always next time

[Assistant] Yeah, that's true. I'm hoping we can maintain our friendship despite the distance. At least with social media and what not, that kind of becomes easier. But I'm worried about us growing apart in terms of personalities.

[User] Just try and keep in touch when you can


[System] confident: I just knew I was going to get this job. I prepared well for it

[User] I knew I was going to get this job. I was prepared for it

[Assistant] I'm really glad to hear that! What kind of job is it, if you don't mind me asking?

[User] Its in production

[Assistant] Oh, that sounds pretty cool. I kind of had my eye on a career like that when I was in school, but ultimately didn't go that route. What will you be doing specifically?


[System] disgusted: While hiking I found a dead deer with maggots eating on it.

[User] I was hiking the other day and I ran across a dead deer with maggots eating on it. It smelled so bad!

[User] I bet that was disgusting! I would bring a noseplug from now on.

[User] I actually had to hold my nose and run off. Almost ruined my hike.

[User] I love hiking, I can't imagine happening upon something so gross. Would probably ruin my hike as well!


[System] caring: I took care of my sick cat over the weekend. I just cared for him as much as I could

[User] I took care of my sick cat over the weekend. I just had to care for him as much as I could

[User] That's really sweet of you. I hope your cat is doing better!

[User] He is as of now

[User] Well I'm sure with you taking care of him, he'll be fine!


[System] prepared: I spent the last month getting ready to go on a trip around the world.

[User] The entire last month I was getting ready for a trip around the world. Takes a lot of planning!

[User] That does sound fun though

[User] Yup. Now that I'm finally ready, I'll be taking off in about a week.

[User] I hope you have fun


[System] nostalgic: Looking at pictures of a recent vacation I took with my girlfriend to the Colorado Mountains. It stinks because we're long distance, so not only do I have to be sad about the vacation being over, but also sad about being far apart again. But at least seeing the pictures brings back great memories.

[Assistant] Looking at pictures of a recent vacation I took with my girlfriend to the Colorado Mountains. It stinks because we're long distance, so not only do I have to be sad about the vacation being over, but also sad about being far apart again. But at least seeing the pictures brings back great memories

[Assistant] That's what pictures are for. Are you guys ever going to live together?

[Assistant] We will eventually. But I'm in school right now, and she has a good job, so neither of us are able to move, and haven't been able to for a few years. We'll get there eventually though.

[Assistant] We that's good. The photos will keep you close


[System] disgusted: I tried escargot this summer on a cruise. I don't know why but I will never have it again

[Assistant] I had excargot over the summer on a cruise

[Assistant] The snails? Yikes. Well, I've always thought it probably gets a worse rap than it actually should, and probably doesn't taste that bad. Half of why I think it's probably gross is simply because they made it seem gross in old cartoons. So, how did it taste?

[Assistant] Everyone else was trying it so I did too. It was terrible but I can now say I did it

[Assistant] Yeah, that's true! Especially since you were on a cruise, it sounds like it's all a part of the experience. At least you can say you didn't chicken out. I'm glad you decided to go that way, because now you have a special memory tied to that vacation;


[System] sad: My daughter is graduating middle school this year. I have always been stressed about her going to high school

[Assistant] My daughter will be in high school next year

[User] Oh man, I feel for you.  Kids grow up so fast.  Do you feel prepared for it?

[Assistant] I don't. She is a young woman now and its too much for me lol

[User] I hear you.  I have a 8 year old daughter and it feels like she was born yesterday.

[Assistant] I am going to cry now lol


[System] furious: Someone just stole my car.

[User] Someone just stole my car.

[Assistant] That sucks? Did you see anything?

[User] No, I was asleep.  I have never been so mad in my life.  The police say I should just expect to never see it again.

[Assistant] I can imagine. I had a car stolen once while I was at work. Broke my heart


[System] surprised: I can;t believe I like the show Power so much. I was never really into shows like that

[Assistant] I have really gotten into that show Power.

[User] I've never seen it. Why do you like it?

[Assistant] I don't usually like shows like that, but the writing is so good. I watch it every Sunday

[User] What is it about?

[Assistant] Drugs. That's why I was apprehensive


[System] sentimental: I'm taking care of my two nephews this weekend while their parents are out of town, and it's nice to see how the older one takes care of the younger one, despite them just being 7 and 2, respectively. It's awesome to see brothers caring for each other for a change, and it made me feel good about them.

[Assistant] I'm taking care of my two nephews this weekend while their parents are out of town, and it's nice to see how the older one takes care of the younger one, despite them just being 7 and 2, respectively. It's awesome to see brothers caring for each other for a change, and it made me feel good about them.

[User] That's great, so you enjoy looking after them?

[Assistant] They can be a handful. They're not the most socialized, so especially when we have other children over, they don't quite interact well, and they easily misunderstand situations. But I do appreciate the brotherly bond they have. It's something to be envious of.

[User] Yeah I can understand that! Well at least they have each other, and hopefully they will grow more social together


[System] guilty: I canceled on my friend tonight and felt bad. I was just tired

[User] I had to cancel on my friend tonight. I felt bad when I did too

[Assistant] That happens sometimes. Sometimes life just gets in the way. Heck, sometimes you just decide you can't physically do a night out, and that's okay, too. I'm sure they'd understand no matter what. Maybe you can make it up to them somehow.

[User] I hope I can too

[Assistant] Maybe take a few days to think it over, and then when the weekend comes, think of a way to surprise them in order to make it up to them. Or if nothing else, just be as honest as possible and not try to cover anything up when you need to bail on them. They'll appreciate that the most.


[System] sad: My girlfriend and I had an argument this afternoon, while she's about to go away to see relatives for a week. It's kind of a bummer because we don't really communicate that well, especially when it comes to arguments. It usually devolves into us rather not talking instead of trying to fully speak out our issues.

[Assistant] My girlfriend and I had an argument this afternoon, while she's about to go away to see relatives for a week. It's kind of a bummer because we don't really communicate that well, especially when it comes to arguments. It usually devolves into us rather not talking instead of trying to fully speak out our issues.

[User] I am sorry, I guess some friends just argue like that

[Assistant] Yeah, which is fine if we were just friends, but we're significant others and we plan to get married, so it's kind of worrisome that after years being together that we're not better at communicating, or at least working through an argument. It's hard for us to put aside our personal feelings and be objective, but only when it's with one another, for some reason.

[User] I am sure you guys will make up


[System] anticipating: I could not wait for last weekend. We were going to some new breweries

[User] I could not wait for last weekend to get here. We were going to see some new breweries

[Assistant] I love visiting breweries! What's your favorite kind of beer?

[User] I love a good saison

[Assistant] Not my favorite but I had a really good one the other day with some kind of fruit in it, I could have downed a gallon of the stuff.


[System] jealous: My friend bought a new car.

[User] Pretty envious that my friend can go out and buy a new car with the snap of a finger.

[User] Ohhh gotta hate that friend!   What do you drive?

[User] An old beat up car that I need to replace but can't afford to.

[User] I drive a gianormous conversion van


[System] nostalgic: I wish I was 18 again.  Things were so different back then.

[User] Ahhhh I wish I was 18 again.. Things were so different back then..

[User] In what ways do you mean?

[User] well i had my parents back then.. and sodas were only a quarter.

[User] Wow they were over $2 when I was 18!

[User] Candy bars.. 25 cents too.  Cigarettes.. 75 cents


[System] proud: My son pass his exams at school with good grade.

[Assistant] My son passed his exams at school with good grade. I am so proud of him

[User] Wow, congratulations to him! He must have been studying very hard for his exams.

[Assistant] Yes, he is smart and a hard working boy.

[User] I'm sure he has a bright future ahead! Tell him to keep up the good work.


[System] sad: I moved to a different state for my husband's job and left the rest of my fammily behind.

[Assistant] I moved to a different state for my husband's job and left the rest of my family behind.

[User] oh, dear. That sounds lonely. How are you holding up?

[Assistant] I'm doing okay. It was for a good reason, his new job is so much better. But it can get lonely

[User] I can imagine. But you'll make new connections there, I'm sure.


[System] lonely: I moved away from my home town last year and I regret it.

[User] I moved away from my home town last year for a new job. I sort of regret it since I don't have many people to talk to.

[User] I know how you feel.  I moved about 3 hours away from my hometown for school and stayed for 3 years and hated it.  I moved back to my hometown and am so happy now.  I'm sorry you're having a tough time.  Have you gotten out and tried to meet people?

[User] I have. I'm pretty introverted so it's hard for me to meet new people. I'm considering a move back.

[User] I would go with your gut.  Sometimes things don't work out, but you might just need more time to meet people and might want to hang in there.  I hope you meet a best friend soon!


[System] joyful: I wasn't able to go to California for a family reunion and a friend of mine paid for tickets for my husband and me! I haven't seen my family in years and she made my year, my century!

[User] I wasn't able to go to California for a family reunion and a friend of mine paid for tickets for my husband and me! I haven't seen my family in years and she made my year, my century!

[User] That is a great friend! I'm happy you were able to see your family.

[User] It was amazing!  I was there a whole week.  She got a bonus from work and wanted me to have it.  I have never had anyone do anything like that for me before!

[User] She sounds like one of a king! Not many people are that generous.


[System] disgusted: I went into the bathroom at work today and someone had clogged it.

[User] I went into the bathroom at work today and someone had clogged it.

[User] Wow that's really frustrating.

[User] It was more than that, it was horrifying.  I have never seen anything more disturbing in my life.  The toilet was overflowing onto the floor.

[User] Oh yuck! That is so gross!


[System] hopeful: I read this story about climate change. I'm really optomistic that we will solve this problem

[User] I'm really optomistic about climate change. I think wed really can solve this crucial issue.

[User] I do, too.  We just need to take better care of the resources we have and plant more trees.  Do you do anything "green".

[User] Yeah I recycle.

[User] If we could just get more people on board to do that we would be on the right track.


[System] faithful: I just knew my dad was going to get better. He had the flu but I knew he would get better

[User] I knew my dad would pull through when he had the flu in a bad way. I just had faith

[User] I am glad that he did. It is always good to stay hopeful.

[User] Yeah, it was scary but good in the end

[User] That's great. Health scares are very real and scary.


[System] nostalgic: I saw an ad for Disneyland and I remembered the first time I had ever been there. I was just a little kid, but I loved it

[User] I saw an ad for Disneyland and I remembered the first time I had ever been there

[User] I LOVED Disneyland growing up! Did you go often? How old were you and what was your favorite ride?

[User] Splash Mountain, of course :D I was maybe 9 or 10, and I've only been once

[User] Ha! I hear you on that. I also loved the Matterhorn! And the Haunted House. We used to spend summers in Tucson with my grandparents, and they would drive us to Disneyland every year ;-)


[System] surprised: I was shocked when my aunt made my graduation. She lived out of state

[User] I was shocked in a good way when my aunt made my graduation. She lived out of state

[Assistant] That's awesome! What a nice surprise. And congratulations on graduating. That's a big accomplishment. What did you graduate in?

[User] It was in english

[Assistant] Oh, very cool. I thought about majoring in English, too, but decided to go a different route. I hope your new degree helps you land the job you want! You're now in the exciting unknown part of your life.


[System] angry: Somehow a LEGO got stuck under my front-door to my house, and now it helped to crack the frame of the door, and it needs to be replaced. What's worse is I had just gotten done telling my child that they need to make sure they're more responsible with their toys, and to put them in their appropriate places. I'm trying to be patient and not overreact in the situation, but it's hard.

I'm trying to be patient and not overreact in the situation, but it's hard.

[User] Just try and teach them to be more careful with them

[Assistant] Yeah, it's hard, since I feel like what I'm trying to communicate to them isn't getting through. They repeat the same thing a dozen times,and then maybe they start making some progress. It's hard for me to see them run into the same wall over and over, so to speak. But you're right.

[User] I am sure it will get beter


[System] grateful: My car broke down recently, now my brother in law helps me get around and I can't thank him enough.

[User] I've been having car trouble lately, but my brother in law has been helping me get around. I'm so thankful towards him./

[User] That's so nice of him to do. No one wants to help anyone out these days but I'm glad for you.

[User] I wouldn't know where to turn if he hadn't offered to help. I hope I don't burden him for too long though.

[User] There's always Uber!


[System] devastated: My mom lost her battle with cancer.

[User] My mom lost her battle with cancer, I was prepared for it but it still hurts so bad.

[User] I am so sorry to hear that! Cancer is such a horrible disease.

[User] It is, I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.

[User] I've actually lost two family members last year, so I can relate. It's something that will stick with you until the day you die.


[System] guilty: I used to steal from my mom. She caught me once and I felt bad.

[User] I stole money from my mom's purse. I'm so ashamed.

[User] That's unfortunate. Does she know that it happened?

[User] Yeah she caught me and yelled at me.

[User] I am sorry to hear that. Maybe next time you can just ask her.


[System] hopeful: I am waiting to see if I got that new job I applied for. It was a tough competition, so I'm excited to see!

[User] I am waiting to see if I got that new job I applied for

[User] Best of luck to you. The tension and nerves must be killing you!

[User] Absolutely! I have faith, but you never really know until it's all done

[User] It's a tough market out there, but I have faith that you get what you desire!


[System] sad: I have been struggling with a flare up from my Lupus after I had such a long period of feeling good.  Its depressing to be in bed all day and fail your family in what you need to be doing.

[User] I have been struggling with a flare up from my Rheumatoid Arthritis after I had such a long period of feeling good. Its depressing to be in bed all day and fail your family in what you need to be doing.

[User] I am sorry you have that. It must be rough

[User] Thank you. Yes, chronic illness can be really hard.  I try to stay positive because I know it makes a different on my health to stay optimistic.  But this flare came suddenly and its horrible to be back in bed.

[User] I can only imagine


[System] anxious: I was so nervous starting my new job. I had no idea what to expect

[User] I was pretty nervous starting my new job. I was not sure what to expect

[User] Wow, congratulations on getting a new job!  I think butterflies are good to have to make us do our best and it shows your job is important to you and you want to do a good job.  What do you do?

[User] Its in production

[User] That sounds fun. Have you done something like it before or is the whole kind of job new to you?  Good luck and I know you'll do great!  Act confident even if you don't feel like it. Sometimes that can help.


[System] embarrassed: At a office party, I tried to invite a female coworker for a drink. She rejected me in front of everybody. I felt bad.

[Assistant] At a office party, I tried to invite a female coworker for a drink. She rejected me in front of everybody. I felt bad.

[Assistant] Ah, that's rough. That was a very bold move on your part. But sometimes fortune favors the bold, as they say. I think you'll be happy later on not having to wonder "what if." Still though, she could have maybe been more discrete about things.

[Assistant] She has been mean and making sure that everyone knows. That is the thing.

[Assistant] Ah, I see. Well, it's a good thing you were rejected thing, maybe. At least now you know what kind of a bullet you dodged. Plus, this is just another step in your overall confidence and character building. The next time you ask someone else out, it will be easier.


[System] grateful: I was in line getting fast food today, and the person in front of me paid for my meal! I offered to do the same for the person behind me, even though I always think that's cheesy when I hear about it. But it was still kind of a cool event that happened, as I'm sure it carried on a while.

I offered to do the same for the person behind me, even though I always think that's cheesy when I hear about it. But it was still kind of a cool event that happened, as I'm sure it carried on a while.

[Assistant] That is very nice of him.

[Assistant] Yeah, it was. Of course, I was just one person he paid for, and I ended up paying for three.. so I lost out a little bit. But I try not to be cynical about it. It's still a cool thing that happens.

[Assistant] Yes, a very cool thing.


[System] lonely: It was a pretty lonesome weekend. My friends were busy

[User] I was a lonesome weekend. All of my friends were busy

[User] Sometimes that can be a good thing? It's not always so bad!

[User] I guess, I got through it

[User] Maybe next weekend will be better for you!


[System] annoyed: I'm getting a cold sore on my lip right before my big job interview!

[User] I can feel a cold sore coming on on my lip! Quite a frustrating thing before a big job interview I have!

[User] I hate when those come around

[User] They take forever to go away!

[User] I am sure it will soon


[System] guilty: I wanted to be alone today so I lied to my friend about being too busy to hang out.

[User] I lied to my friend today and told him I was too busy to hang out because I just wanted to be alone. I do feel sort of bad.

[Assistant] you should not feel bad ,we all need alone time

[User] I agree with you, but I can't help it. Maybe I should have just been honest with her.

[Assistant] honesty is great and all , but sometimes you need some time to yourself, i feel you on that tho


[System] excited: my friend go a new job

[Assistant] my friend got a new job recently , a 2nd job if i may add and im really happy for him

[User] Oh wow, that's great! Only bad thing is he will be very busy with two jobs.

[Assistant] yes he will be busy , but his life will also be better , im just over all really happy for him

[User] That's great to hear!


[System] apprehensive: I was a little unsure about going to see a movie alone tonight. It just didnt feel right

[User] I was a little unsure going to a movie alone tonight. It did not feel right

[User] There is nothing wrong with that at all. I've done it a few times before. Nobody in the theater knows or cares that you're there alone.

[User] Yeah it wasnt so bad

[User] If you always wait for somebody to come with you, you may miss out on a movie that you want to see as well. So there's that.


[System] anxious: Getting on a flight in a couple of days. Kind of nervous because I've never flown before, and I just have a weird feeling about it. Like, I know it will be fine, but I'm worried about the safety of plans, I'm worried about getting lost, I'm worried about being far from home.. Just a little overwhelming.

[Assistant] Getting on a flight in a couple of days. Kind of nervous because I've never flown before, and I just have a weird feeling about it. Like, I know it will be fine, but I'm worried about the safety of plans, I'm worried about getting lost, I'm worried about being far from home.. Just a little overwhelming.

[User] where are you going

[Assistant] I'm going to North Carolina to start my first semester of college! So, that's a part of it, too, is I'm going to a completely new place, away from family, and doing it in a way I haven't done before that kind of wracks my nerves.

[User] oh thats cool


[System] excited: i was excited when i got to leave work early

[User] i was excited when i got to leave work early

[Assistant] I'm glad to hear something positive happened to you. Were you able to do something fun or productive with the time off? And what was the occasion?

[User] no i was not i was able to go home and wait for the family the we went out to eat

[Assistant] Ah, pretty cool. It's nice that you decided to have family time instead of just alone time. I bet they were excited, too. Hopefully work rewards you more often like that.


[System] jealous: People going on vacation all the time.

[User] It must be nice for people to go on exotic vacations every time they turn around.

[User] I would love to do that as well

[User] Where would you go first?

[User] I would love to go to hawaii


[System] proud: I was kind of happy with myself tonight. I ate really healthy

[User] I was happy with myself tonight. I ate really healthy

[User] That's great! It's hard to do that sometimes, especially on the weekends!

[User] Yeah it really is

[User] I'm proud of you for sticking to it!


[System] afraid: I was home alone and heard what sounded like scratching underneath the floor. I was worried an animal was under the house, and that it might be able to get into the house, and that it might be something dangerous.

[Assistant] I thought I heard an animal trapped under my house last night.

[Assistant] Oh yeah? What kind of animal do you think it was?

[Assistant] I think it might have been something large. There was a lot of noise and scratching.

[Assistant] Maybe it was an armadillo. I get them in my yard sometimes.

[Assistant] It could be! Sometimes what I imagine it to be is worse than what it is in reality.


[System] trusting: Some people say I am gullible. I usually believe anything I hear. One time someone convinced me they were a celebrity.

[Assistant] I have been told that I am too gullible. One time someone told me they were a celebrity and I believed them.

[Assistant] Oh no, what did they say to convince you?

[Assistant] They said they knew the Kardashians and have a helicopter. I guess I need to be more skeptical.

[Assistant] Maybe I'm too gullible as well because that would convince me!


[System] grateful: I am happy that I wasn't part of the recent lay off.

[Assistant] The company that I working for is having financials issues. I am happy that I wasn't part of the recent lay off.

[User] That is a relief. Did any coworker friends get laid off?

[Assistant] Yes, that was the hard part of it. I saw some of my coworker escorted by security. It is a sad thing to see.

[User] I've been there. It's so sad, but it will get better.


[System] jealous: I'm jealous of my co-worker, who seems to be in such good shape and able to have the willpower and patience to work out so much, and eat a healthy diet, while doing the same workload as me. I would love to look like he does, but I just don't have the patience. I wonder what his secret to success would be, if I asked.

[Assistant] I'm jealous of my co-worker, who seems to be in such good shape and able to have the willpower and patience to work out so much, and eat a healthy diet, while doing the same workload as me. I would love to look like he does, but I just don't have the patience. I wonder what his secret to success would be, if I asked

[User] Maybe you can change that jealous energy into positive energy! Do some research into fitness and start a new journey.

[Assistant] Yeah, I know you're right. I believe you. The hardest thing is the dieting. I just have no interesting in most of the diet strategies, and it's hard to be on a diet and stay social. Every time I go to a party or out with friends, it doesn't allow for me to be very healthy. Something I'll have too figure out.

[User] One tip I tell people is that they don't need to change WHAT they eat, only how much. Calorie intake is the important factor, not what type of calories.


[System] devastated: My dog was ran over yesterday after sneaking outside.

[User] My dog managed to slip out the door yesterday and ended up going straight for the road and got ran over. I feel so horrible.

[Assistant] Holy cow, that's terrible. I really feel for you. My dad had that happen to him and his dog when he was young, and he's told me about it as a warning to make sure I'm safe with ours. I wouldn't wish it on anyone. I hope you get through the grieving process okay.

[User] It's going to be hard, and I don't think I'll be able to have another dog anytime soon. It'll take a while before I'm comfortable enough,.

[Assistant] I would definitely take as long as you need, so you don't put unhealthy pressure or expectation on the animal to live up to a memory it can't live up to. But if you feel comfortable with the idea, then I would consider it when the time is right. You'll know when that is.


[System] surprised: My friend randomly gave me a gift out of nowhere. I wasn't expecting it at all as there wasn't any specific occassion

[User] My friend randomly gave me a gift out of nowhere!

[User] That's great, what did he give you?

[User] He gave me a $100 gift card!

[User] Do you know why he gave it to you?


[System] angry: Took son to ER because of sore throat.  They said it was just a virus and sent him home.  Still sick 2 days later, took to his doctor.  Just sore throat, heres some antibiotics.  Getting worse, took to ENT, Severe strep throat,  here is the correct antibiotic.  That worked.  ER visit bill, DR bill and ENT bill, for a simple sore throat!

[User] Took my son to ER because he had a sore throat.  They misdiagnosed it and it got worse.

[User] Oh no! That's not good at all. It's hard to diagnose things sometimes

[User] Well, after a few days of getting worse, took him to his primary dr.  He gave antibiotics for a sore throat.

[User] Well I'm glad he got some antibiotics for it. I hope that helped enough!

[User] Nope.  Got worse, went to an ENT and finally got the correct antibiotics.  ER bill, Dr. bill and ENT bill for what started as a simple sore throat.


[System] anticipating: I'm hoping to move soon (buy a home), and I am feeling a lot of anticipation regarding moving.

[User] I plan to buy a home soon, and will be moving.  I'm really anticipating having to pack everything up and what a new house will feel like.

[User] Oh now that's exciting! I moved two years ago and it was a very weird process. I was happy to have a new home but anxious at the same time.

[User] I think our current house is problematic enough that all the effort and anxious feelings will be worth it.

[User] Well that's great. I'm happy to hear you guys are getting out of a bad home.


[System] jealous: My friend who trains with me has been training for the same amount of time but looks much better than I do.

[User] I have a friend who's been weight lifting with me for years now and he looks better than me. I wish I had his genetics!

[User] Oh, I totally understand.  It's frustrating when you feel like you're putting in the same effort (or more!) and it works better for other people.

[User] It sure is frustrating, but I can't say I haven't made great progress myself. But his progress is insane!

[User] Well, it's good that at least you're making progress!  It would be crazy frustrating if you weren't.  Congrats on your hard work paying off.


[System] nostalgic: I miss the times when me and my cousins were going to the beach when we were young.

[Assistant] I miss the times when me and my cousins were going to the beach when we were young.

[User] Ah yes, does it bring back good memories? Nostalgia is a powerful thing.

[Assistant] It bring back always good memories.It was nice. Nothing to worry about. Just playing.

[User] I'm so glad that you had the chance to make those memories with your cousins!


[System] disgusted: We were at a family gathering, and my relatives were in town for the weekend and we were saying our final goodbyes before they headed back home. My nephew stood up in front of everyone and farted. He's 11... He should be able to know better. I cringed,.

[Assistant] We were at a family gathering, and my relatives were in town for the weekend and we were saying our final goodbyes before they headed back home. My nephew stood up in front of everyone and farted. He's 11... He should be able to know better. I cringed.

[User] That sure is embarrassing, did he get talked to about his behavior?

[Assistant] No. His parents weren't there to hear it or witness it. I didn't feel like ratting him out or dealing with it, either. Kind of lazy on my part. Everyone just kind of shrugged it off and laughed awkwardly, but you could tell everyone was thinking, "Really? Why?"

[User] I agree, at that age kids should definitely know better and think before doing something. Unbelievable.


[System] joyful: My child said his first word the other day! It wasn't mama or da-da, but at least he's making progress! His first word was "one." Not the most meaningful or memorable, but I'm just proud of him anyway.

[Assistant] My child said his first word the other day! It wasn't mama or da-da, but at least he's making progress! His first word was "one." Not the most meaningful or memorable, but I'm just proud of him anyway.

[User] You should be proud. These are the moments you are never going to want to forget.

[Assistant] Yeah. I didn't want to sit there and video tape and just be lost in my phone and behind a screen while he did it, especially because I wanted him to see my face clearly and all that. But I do kind of wish I had it so I could play it back over and over again. I wish we had a recorder in our eyes somehow!

[User] Yeah, but don't worry. More memories are yet to come!


[System] lonely: I miss my childhood.

[User] I'm really said. I'm missing my youthful vigor.

[Assistant] Your youthful vigor? You think you're too old now? You're only too old if you allow yourself to be. My girlfriend's 90-year-old grandfather was a full-of-life WWII vet who lit up the room when he came in. Of course, you're not as physically active, but you have to learn to utilize your life in different ways.

[User] Yeah, I just don't have the energy I need to do things I want to.

[Assistant] Well, maybe it's an opportunity for introspection. For you to take time out of your day to think about what you need and want, and what are the best ways to achieve that. Maybe you need a better diet, or sleep schedule, or meditation, or an exercise routine. Sometimes you have to spend energy to feel energized. It's a slow process in the beginning, but it can be life-changing.


[System] anticipating: I can't wait until Friday!

[User] Why? What's going on on Friday?

[Assistant] Any plans for Friday?

[User] I am leaving for vacation! I can't wait!

[Assistant] That's awesome! I bet these next few days will fly by


[System] surprised: For my last birthday I told my husband I didn't want a gift but he got me a laptop... I was very happy!

[Assistant] For my last birthday I told my husband I didn't want a gift but he got me a laptop... I was very happy!

[User] I bet you were! What kind of laptop was it?

[Assistant] I'm not sure, I dont know much. IT's a LEnovo but he says it can handle video games and everything so Im excited

[User] My husband also has a Lenovo. He really likes it!


[System] impressed: I went to a minor league baseball game last night and saw a guy throw 101 miles per hour.

[User] I went to a minor league ball game last night and I saw a pitcher throw over 101 miles per hour!  It was amazing to see in real life

[User] Wowza! That's impressive. I wonder how long until he's called up.

[User] The way he was was pitching last night, it might be soon

[User] You will be able to say you saw him before he was famous!


[System] furious: Someone slammed into my car and totaled it while it was parked.  I am so mad because I didn't have insurance on it yet since I just bought it. The worst timing ever!

[User] Someone slammed into my car and totaled it while it was parked. I am so mad because I didn't have insurance on it yet since I just bought it. The worst timing ever!

[Assistant] I'm really sorry to hear that... That's the worst scenario too, because you're parked and probably not even there, so you were completely powerless in the situation, and then you come back to your car to just have this bomb dropped on you. Maybe there's something that can be worked out, since you just purchased it.

[User] Thanks.  Yeah, I'm trying to figure out what kind of coverage I have if I just purchased it.  It might have still been on the other persons insurance.  I had to take off work and am losing money all around.

[Assistant] There has to be something. It can't just be this weird vulnerable loophole. I really hope so, for your case, because that's just unfair. I'm sure your work will understand, but it's still a crummy situation that is probably affecting all areas of your life. Transportation gets taken for granted. Hope things get better soon.


[System] lonely: My parents came and visited me from out of town. It was so great to see them again, and they brought so much energy back into my small crummy apartment and isolated life. But now they've gone back home and it's back to an empty room and not having anyone to talk to.

[Assistant] My parents came and visited me from out of town. It was so great to see them again, and they brought so much energy back into my small crummy apartment and isolated life. But now they've gone back home and it's back to an empty room and not having anyone to talk to.

[User] I'm so glad you got to visit with them!  I know how you feel to be far from family and home alone.  Take heart that you are loved by your family and friends even when they aren't around.

[Assistant] Yeah, that's true. Absence makes the heart grow fonder--that's the truest statement ever spoken. I'm one of the lucky ones who has good parents that I wish I could be around all the time. They're funny, they don't nag, they're supportive and encouraging, and always insightful.

[User] I can see why its even harder on you when they leave.  That's wonderful that they are such a part of your life.  Take care and get out with friends soon to brighten your spirits!


[System] terrified: Someone is banging on my door in the middle of the night!

[User] It's the middle of the night and someone is banging on my garage door!

[Assistant] That's quite scary!  Are you able to see who it is?

[User] No, I can't see anything and I'm too scared to look out a window!

[Assistant] You might want to call 911 if they continue banging on the door.  Better safe than sorry!


[System] impressed: I was watching a friend of my show of his juggling skills recently.  I got to say, I was quite dazzled by his skills!

[Assistant] I was watching a friend of my show of his juggling skills recently. I got to say, I was quite dazzled by his skills!

[User] Wow, how long has he been juggling for?

[Assistant] He was able to juggle 5 bean bags for about a minute and a half.  I had no idea he was that coordinated.

[User] I wonder how people figure that thing out about themselves? Very cool, though.


[System] guilty: I once was travelling at a speed in excess of the speed limit.  A police officer was waiting off the side of the road just beyond the hill I crossed, and I immediately knew he had me.

[Assistant] I once was traveling at a speed in excess of the speed limit.  A police officer was waiting just off the side of the road beyond the hill I had just cross, and I immediately knew he had me.

[Assistant] Sometimes you just have to concede defeat. I admire your resigned attitude.

[Assistant] What is interesting is that I was certain he had caught me, but what I didn't realize was that one travelling behind me on the interstate must have been going faster than I was.

[Assistant] Then it was your lucky day. I usually follow someone like that and they will end up getting pulled over before me.

[Assistant] I did pull over, and the police officer ended up behind the two of us.  He told me to move along.  Lucky day, ... indeed.


[System] guilty: I felt so bad when I ate all of the Christmas cookies I baked. I didn't save any for my neighbors. They were just so good!

[Assistant] When I baked Christmas cookies last year I meant to bring some to my neighbors. But I had to eat a few first.

[Assistant] Oh, no.  I think I see where this is headed.

[Assistant] Well a few turned into a few more and before I knew it there were none left to share. I felt so bad. Next Christmas I will make up for it.

[Assistant] LOL.  Do you really think so?  That has happened to me before.  Sometimes, it's just too hard to pass up.  Thank you for sharing.


[System] proud: I was able to achieve my diet goals finally. It has been one year that I am diet.

[Assistant] I was able to achieve my diet goals finally. It has been one year that I am on diet.

[User] Congratulations on making a plan and sticking with it. What kind of diet are you doing?

[Assistant] I wanted to loose weight. I proud of myself to have finally acheived my goals.

[User] You can do anything (realistically) as long as you stay consistent and take it one day at a time!


[System] surprised: Yesterday I was doing shores outside and was just finishing up when a lizard jumped on me out of nowhere!

[Assistant] Yesterday I was doing shores outside and was just finishing up when a lizard jumped on me out of nowhere!

[User] did it bite you!

[Assistant] No.  They are really harmless, but I just wasn't expecting it at all!  It made my heart skip a beat!

[User] oh thats cool then


[System] angry: i was mad when i returned to my car and noticed someone put a dent in my door

[User] i was mad when i returned to my car and noticed someone put a dent in my car

[Assistant] That would really anger me as well.  What did you do?  Did you find the person who did it?

[User] no i didnt find them.. sucks that people dont care about other peoples property

[Assistant] Yeah, it blows my mind that people think they can damage other peoples belonging and just go about their day.


[System] content: I barley graduated and got a job in the bank. Also, my dream girl told me she been wanting to go out with me.

[User] Im really happy about how my life is going and i cannot wait for the future.

[User] I'm happy for you! Everyone deserves to be excited about life.

[User] I appreciate your kind words, and I hope everything goes your in the future too.

[User] Thank you very much. Much success to you!


[System] disappointed: I cooked a meal for family and it came out horribly.

[User] I cooked for family last week and it tasted pretty bad. I know they noticed, but they didn't say anything.

[Assistant] Your family was being polite. If I did that my family would order a pizza, hah.

[User] I can tell they were just being polite too. I let myself down. I'll have to focus more next time.

[Assistant] It's all good. Maybe you should try something simple like Hamburger Helper. Can't really  mess that up.


[System] anticipating: I can't wait for the next Avatar movie to come out. I have been waiting so long. It is going to be great.

[Assistant] I am really looking forward to the next Avatar movie. It seems like I have been waiting forever.

[User] I didn't even know they were making another, I loved the first!

[Assistant] It is going to be a trilogy with possibly another trilogy after that. James Cameron has been very busy!

[User] That is friggin' awesome! I sure hope they can keep up the quality in the upcoming movies.


[System] surprised: I have been high nutrient vegan for 3 months now and got on the scale today only to discover that I have lost 34 pounds! I was shocked!

[User] I have been high nutrient vegan for 3 months now and got on the scale today only to discover that I have lost 34 pounds! I was shocked!

[Assistant] Congratulation.

[User] I haven't been weighing myself because its about health and longevity but I needed to lose weight and I figured that would just be a byproduct of healthy eating.

[Assistant] You had a good idea. Each of us need to find the correct way to lose weight.


[System] confident: Tomorrow, I am doing a presentation to my CEO. I am sure that I will give a good impression.

[Assistant] Tomorrow, I am doing a presentation to my CEO. I am sure that I will give a good impression.

[User] Wow, good luck.  I hope it all goes well. It sounds like you're confident that it will. Have you done one before?

[Assistant] To the CEO of the company, no, I didn't. I feel confident.

[User] I know you're do great then!  Hope it brings you a lot of success!


[System] nostalgic: Did you know Double Dare came back? My favorite show of the 90s! I feel like a kid again.

[User] Did you know Double Dare came back? My favorite show of the 90s! I feel like a kid again.

[User] Really?  That is awesome.  I used to watch reruns of that show all the time.

[User] It's such a great show and still just as good today!

[User] I will have to try to watch it.  Sounds like a good time


[System] caring: I watched a documentary about puppy mills and and organization getting them rescued.  I was very moved

[User] The other night I was watching this documentary about a puppy mill getting busted and the dogs getting rescued.  I wanted to adopt everyone of them

[User] Those poor dogs! I hate puppy mills so much and unfortunately I live in an area where they are very common.

[User] Really?   We actually have a lot of rescue places in my town.  They do not take kindly to people abusing animals in my neck of the woods.

[User] There are laws here but they find ways around them. People are cruel and only care about money.


[System] terrified: i was scared when i saw that owl staring at e

[User] i was scared when i saw that owl staring at me

[Assistant] Oooh I don't like owls... they creep me out

[User] yea he was very creepy

[Assistant] was it big


[System] nostalgic: I found an old box of photos today. It was so nice looking through photos of my childhood. I'm glad my parents capture those moments.

[Assistant] I found an old box of photos today. It was so nice looking through photos of my childhood. I'm glad my parents capture those moments

[User] did you get to keep them?

[Assistant] Yes they recently gave me a lot of them

[User] thats awesome


[System] surprised: I got a raise lately and I wasn't expecting one this big!

[User] I got a raise lately and didn't expect a raise this big!

[User] That is awesome, did you ask your boss for one or was it unexpected?

[User] It was unexpected, so it was even better!

[User] That must mean you're a hard worker. You should keep at it then!


[System] annoyed: My cubicle neighbor at work really bothers me.  He eats all day long and is always chewing loud foods with his mouth open!  I can barely think with him chomping like a cow!

[Assistant] My cubicle neighbor at work really bothers me. He eats all day long and is always chewing loud foods with his mouth open! I can barely think with him chomping like a cow!

[Assistant] I hate that. That's one of my biggest pet peeves. That's such an awkward situation, because you don't want to come off as high maintenance and ask them to stop, but it'd be so easy for them to have better manners, too. I wish I had better advice. Maybe go to HR?

[Assistant] I could go to HR, but I don't want to be "that guy" if you know what I mean.

[Assistant] Yeah, absolutely. That's what I meant earlier, too, about being high maintenance. I don't know, maybe earbuds? But I'm sure you've tried that. Who knows how they would respond if you asked them personally, and if they actually did improve, they'd probably just forget and revert back in a few days anyway.


[System] proud: Starting to get better at jogging. Last summer I could only jog a couple of miles. Now I'm working up past 5 miles, to 7 and 8 miles each time I go out. I need to get a lot better with my mile times, but I'm starting to get interested in the idea of a half marathon.

[Assistant] Starting to get better at jogging. Last summer I could only jog a couple of miles. Now I'm working up past 5 miles, to 7 and 8 miles each time I go out. I need to get a lot better with my mile times, but I'm starting to get interested in the idea of a half marathon.

[Assistant] Wow!  That is impressive!  You must be really prod of yourself!

[Assistant] Yeah, I am. I mostly just do it so I can eat as many cheeseburgers as I want and not get too fat. But now that it's a little bit more of a realistic possibility to do something like that as an achievement, it's become a little interesting.

[Assistant] Haha!  That's funny!  I work out to drink and eat bad food as well!  Awesome achievement with your running!  Keep at it!


[System] embarrassed: i got super late to work

[Assistant] one time i got to work and my manager said where have you been , i didnt think much of it i said in bed relaxing , shes like your late 3 hours i guess i wrote my squedule wrong, it felt so bad

[Assistant] Hey, honest mistake. Obviously you didn't come up with some dumb lie and make it seem like they made the mistake and not you. You owned up to it. I'm sure they appreciate that more than you would figure.

[Assistant] my manager laughed and said dangit man get to work , lol thanks for your input it made me smile

[Assistant] I'm glad! It's the honest truth. Everyone screws up. And I bet it will motivate you to never make that mistake again, too. So in the end, they have someone who's sharper about things. Good to hear it worked out in your favor.


[System] surprised: Was grocery shopping, and saw my old best fried in the dairy aisle. Haven't spoken to them in like ten years, even though we used to be really close. We caught up a little bit, and exchanged numbers to talk more later. Funny how small the world is sometimes.

[Assistant] Was grocery shopping, and saw my old best fried in the dairy aisle. Haven't spoken to them in like ten years, even though we used to be really close. We caught up a little bit, and exchanged numbers to talk more later. Funny how small the world is sometimes.

[Assistant] yes dude the world is a trip, i made many friends over the years online and when i bump into them i make sure i go up to them and chit chat and shake hands, you never know when someone will pass away ,

[Assistant] That's actually a really good point.. I do online gaming, so I have tons of online friends, almost all of which I'm sure I'll never meet. And I definitely have lost touch with most of them, just because it's so easy to. I don't really do social media either, so I don't have that to kind of glue things together. Wonder why it's hard for adults to keep friends

[Assistant] i have in real life friends , and a regular job , but because of back problems and sciatica ive made many friends online i consider to be like brothers social media has let me make relationships while in bed lol

[Assistant] Really appreciate your perspective. That's awesome. Online friends are every bit as good. I'm with you there. Hope things stay good with yoou


[System] furious: My boss just informed me that I will be getting a bunch of unfinished work from a coworker that was promoted.  I am so mad that I have to do my stuff and someone elses incomplete work!

[Assistant] My boss just informed me that I will be getting a bunch of unfinished work from a coworker that was promoted. I am so mad that I have to do my stuff and someone elses incomplete work!

[Assistant] That's so unfair. I would complain very loudly if that happened to me!

[Assistant] I would, but my boss has too much control over how much our bonuses are.  I will just have to scream in a pillow and suck it up.

[Assistant] I feel your pain. Life is really unfair sometimes.


[System] excited: I am so looking forward to the next season of Stranger Things. I can't wait to see how eleven uses her powers. I love the show so much!

[Assistant] I can't wait for the next season of Stranger Things to get released. I want to see how eleven uses her powers.

[Assistant] Stranger things is one of my favorite shows!  It stinks that the next season has been pushed to next summer though.

[Assistant] Yeah I don't want to wait that long. It is going to be so hard for me.

[Assistant] I feel ya.  The kids will be all grown up by then!


[System] joyful: i was happy when i saw lebron james go to the lakers

[User] i was happy when i saw lebron james go to the lakers

[Assistant] That is awesome!  He is such an amazing athlete!  Any team that has him is lucky!

[User] yea i hope they can do some damage

[Assistant] I guarantee they will!  That's raw talent right there!


[System] terrified: I am going zip-lining in Colorado in a week.  There is only one problem  I am really scared of heights!

[Assistant] I am going zip-lining in Colorado in a week. There is only one problem I am really scared of heights!

[User] wow .. so am i .. i could not imagine doing that. its great that you are going to do it though

[Assistant] If not for my wife pushing me to do it, I don't think I could be brave enough!

[User] i wish you good luck..


[System] terrified: This morning I found a garden snake in my yard! It wasn't very big but I don't like snakes.

[Assistant] This morning I found a garden snake in my yard! It wasn't very big but I don't like snakes.

[User] Oh, my dad use to play with those all the time when we were young and he'd let us touch them!

[Assistant] Really? I would probably run the other way lol

[User] I never did want to hold it, but I was curious enough to touch it! They're actually kind of cute.
