Daily Schedule
Woman: So, what's your usual day like? You always seem so busy.
Man: Well, I usually get up around 5:00 a.m. and work on the computer until 6:00 a.m.
Woman: Why do you get up so early?
Man: Well, I have to leave home at twenty to seven (6:40 a.m.) so I can catch a bus at 7:00 o'clock . It takes me about twenty minutes to walk to the bus stop from my house.
Woman: And what time do you get to work?
Man: Uh, my bus takes about an hour to get there, but it stops right in front of my office.
Woman: That's nice. And what time do you get off work?
Man: Uh, around 5:00 o'clock. Then, we eat dinner around 6:30, and my wife and I read and play with the kids until 8:00 or so.
Woman: So, when do you work on your website? You said one time that you create it at home?
Man: Well, my wife and I often watch TV or talk until 10:00 o'clock. She then often reads while I work on my site, and I sometimes stay up until the early hours of the morning, but I try to finish everything by one or two.
Woman: And then you get up at 5:00 a.m.?
Man: Well, yeah, but it's important to live a balanced life. I enjoy what I do, but you have to set aside time for the family and yourself.
Woman: I agree.
Man: But I think my wife has the toughest job. She spends her whole day taking care of our family . . . taking the kids to school, working in the garden, buying groceries, taking the kids to piano lessons . . . [Wow!] It's a full-time job, but she enjoys what she does.
Woman: Well, it sounds like you're a busy, but lucky man.
Man: I think so too.

Người phụ nữ: Vì vậy, ngày bình thường của bạn như thế nào? Bạn luôn có vẻ rất bận rộn.

Man: À, tôi thường thức dậy khoảng 5 giờ sáng và làm việc trên máy tính cho đến 6 giờ sáng

Người phụ nữ: Tại sao bạn thức dậy sớm thế?

Người đàn ông: Vâng, tôi phải rời khỏi nhà lúc bảy kém hai mươi (6:40 sáng) nên tôi có thể bắt xe buýt lúc 7 giờ sáng. Tôi mất khoảng hai mươi phút để đi bộ đến trạm xe buýt từ nhà tôi.

Người phụ nữ: Và bạn có thời gian để làm việc?

Người đàn ông: Uh, xe buýt của tôi mất khoảng một giờ để đến đó, nhưng nó dừng ngay trước văn phòng của tôi.

Người phụ nữ: Thật tuyệt. Và bạn nghỉ làm lúc mấy giờ?

Người đàn ông: Uh, khoảng 5:00 giờ. Sau đó, chúng tôi ăn tối khoảng 6:30, và vợ tôi cùng đọc và chơi với những đứa trẻ cho đến 8 giờ sáng.

Người phụ nữ: Vậy, khi nào bạn làm việc trên trang web của mình? Bạn nói một lần bạn tạo nó ở nhà?

Người đàn ông: Vâng, vợ tôi và tôi thường xem TV hoặc nói chuyện cho đến 10:00. Sau đó, cô ấy thường đọc trong khi tôi làm việc trên trang web của tôi, và đôi khi tôi ở lại cho đến sáng sớm, nhưng tôi cố gắng hoàn thành tất cả mọi thứ bằng một hoặc hai.

Người phụ nữ: Và sau đó bạn thức dậy lúc 5:00 sáng?

Người đàn ông: Vâng, vâng, nhưng điều quan trọng là phải sống một cuộc sống cân bằng. Tôi thích những gì tôi làm, nhưng bạn phải dành thời gian cho gia đình và bản thân bạn.

Người phụ nữ: Tôi đồng ý.

Man: Nhưng tôi nghĩ vợ tôi có công việc khó khăn nhất. Cô dành cả ngày để chăm sóc gia đình. . . đưa bọn trẻ đến trường, làm việc trong vườn, mua đồ tạp hóa, đưa bọn trẻ đến lớp học piano. . . [Wow!] Đó là công việc toàn thời gian, nhưng cô ấy thích những gì cô ấy làm.

Người phụ nữ: Vâng, có vẻ như bạn là một người đàn ông bận rộn, nhưng may mắn.

Man: Tôi cũng nghĩ thế.

Curtis : Hi Spencer, I thought we might talk about fashion a little bit. Could you describe to me your style or your fashion sense?
