　　Maria: I would like to be more studious for school because I am not that much of a stay-at-home-all-nigh- to-study person. I look at my textbook and I really try but then I realize I could be doing something else so I just go out and do something else and I don't do my homework and I don't fail because I am at least smart enough to pass but sometimes it's a struggle to get through. So yes, I would like to be more studious and more maybe hesitant in my answers because I talk before I think at some point sometimes. I do like my open personality though, like being for example when we went out partying yesterday, I was talking to everybody which was very nice and people seemed to like that open-attitude and as long as you're not being open and arrogant³ because I try not to.

 

　　Alex: Yeah.

 

　　Maria: If you're being open because you're interested in the person you're talking to then you get more positive responses so I do like that.

 

　　Alex: But being so open has caused you problems as well. I remember that guy thought that you liked him because you were so nice to him.

 

　　Maria: That wasn't supposed to happen. I can't help it. There was a guy in my school, I don't know the guy, he's probably in his forties, who went over and talked to me and it was just impossible for me to say go away so I ended up giving him my phone number and now he calls me every night at half past twelve on my phone which is very loud and very annoying.

 

　　Alex: Every night?

 

　　Maria: When I pick up, well he stopped now because I don't pick up any more, but in the beginning he just, I pick up the phone and he said hi and then I said what do you want and then he said nothing much but how are you, like really he didn't even want anything. He just wanted to talk to me and yeah that kind of problem happens more than often because I can't help it.

 

　　Alex: What would you like to change about your status like a new house, a job, a boyfriend, anything like that?

 

　　Maria: I would not mind finding⁴ a nice guy. I would not at all. I don't know about the specifics⁵ and I'm not even sure I can handle a relationship right now, maybe I just want to meet somebody to try and work it out with but that's probably not the most important thing because I love where I live, I love my study, I don't have a job and that's really nice. I do have, I've saved up money before traveling so I do have a lot of money right now so I don't need to work and it's nice.

 

　　Alex: At the moment?

 

　　Maria: At the moment.
