ESSAY 6: DIALOGUE

Last Saturday I met Laia in the bus station, I hadn’t seen her for 10 years…

JUDIT: Oh my god Laia! It’s been such a long time!

LAIA: Judit? Oh, It’s a great surprise! Look at you, you’re exactly the same as you were 10 years ago…

JUDIT: What are you doing? What’s about your life? Did you come back from the USA?

LAIA: Yes, er… but I spend here only a few weeks. I came to visit my grandparents and old friends.

JUDIT: That’s fantastic! And what about your life in the USA? Any new story to explain?

LAIA: I’m really happy! The USA are a very beautiful country to live in. I’m very lucky!

JUDIT: You study medicine, don’t you?

LAIA: Oh, yes, when I arrived in the USA I entered the NY University, the most important University in the USA and I began to study medicine. Now, I’m in my third course, I have a lot of work but I love medicine and I think I may be an excellent doctor!

JUDIT: I don’t have any doubt about it! I remind went to school and we played with the other classmates, you always wanted to be the doctor. I have really good memories of those times…

LAIA: Me too!

JUDIT: I’m very happy to meet you! We can meet another day and talk about our lives.
