This is something I over heard in class. Two friends were just talking about how boring their spares were.
Girl 1: I was so bored during my spare
Girl 2: Why didn’t you read a book?
Girl 1: I don’t have one (Said with laughter)
Girl 2: So, go to the library and take one out.
Girl 1: I don’t have a library membership.
Girl 2: A membership? What is it, a gym?
Girl 1: Well, what do you want me to call it?
Girl 2: A library card.
Girl 1: Oh my God, does it really matter?
Girl 2: Yeah, it does matter because it sounds stupid.
I thought this conversation was pretty funny because the one girl is overreacting about the girls choice of words. This conversation kind of reminds me of something that would be said in a sit-com or in a stupid show like family guy because what they are saying is pointless, and yet I was still drawn to listen to their argument.
While Eavesdropping, I also noticed that the two girls were opposite in personalities. Girl 1 was not much of a talker and was usually forced by girl 2 to start a conversation. Girl 2 was a lot more talkative whether it be with her voice or with the text messages she continuously sent and received in class. I found it intriguing how two girls with opposite personalities were- or seemed to be- best friends. I guess the saying "opposites attract" stands true in this situation.

wow! sympathize with girl 1. it sounds like her "best friend" is in a way pressuring her to use vocabulary she wants to hear. and mabey girl 1 is just shy to talk. mabey she doesnt want to say something dumb in front of her best friend because she may call her "stupid" again. oh well i guess they'll both sort it out for themselves. but you're right "opposites do attract" =) im sure no matter what type of vocabulary girl one uses and no matter how many times she is told shes stupid, they'll both remain best friends =)
Girl 2 didn't call her stupid. She said it sounded stupid. :) Not the same thing. It could be seen as her trying to help her out. No?
