What are your interests?

Dean: So do you get much free time Megan?

Megan: Free time? Ha! Not really, but when I do, I really like to read.

Dean: Oh read?

Megan: Yeah, I like all kinds of books. I read in the evening after dinner, and in bed. See reading is good because it doesn’t cost much, and I can borrow books for free from friends and the library.

Dean: I love reading, but there is just one problem.

Megan: What’s that?

Dean: It makes me sleepy, I sometimes fall asleep while I’m reading.
