1. I really like Allison. She's such fun to be with. She always makes me laugh. Did she tell you the story about her first day of school? I don't think I've laughed so hard in my whole life!
2. I went out with this guy a couple of times. Ted Roberts. Maybe you know him. He's okay, I guess, but the guy's got no future. I think he just wants to spend the rest of his life surfing at the beach.
3. Tony Lee asked me out the other night, and I said no. You know, he is really embarrassing to be with. Last time I went out to a party with him, he nearly got into a fight with someone. And then he wouldn't leave the party, even after everyone else left.
4. I've been out with Sandra Bronstein twice. She's really an interesting person. I didn't realize her father is a pretty well- known artist and her mother is a successful stockbroker. I'd really like to meet her parents sometime.
5. Do you know Rod, the guy in our Spanish class? Anyway, he's invited me out on a dare. You know the guy I mean—he's kind of thin, very tall, with long curly hair. And he's got those dark brown eyes. Just my type!
6. I was stuck sitting next to Martha at a dinner party the other evening. No matter what I said or did. I couldn't get her to laugh. I wonder why she is so terribly serious.
