Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
What is your favorite holiday?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
one where I get to meet lots of different people.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
What was the most number of people you have ever met during a holiday?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hard to keep a count. Maybe 25.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Which holiday was that?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I think it was Australia<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Do you still talk to the people you met?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Not really. The interactions are usually short-lived but it's fascinating to learn where people are coming from and what matters to them<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yea, me too. I feel like God often puts strangers in front of you, and gives you an opportunity to connect with them in that moment in deeply meaningful ways. Do you ever feel like you know things about strangers without them telling you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
what do you mean?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I think it's like a 6th sense, often seen as "cold readings" to people, but can be remarkably accurate. I once sat next to a man in a coffee and I felt a pain in my back. I asked the stranger if he had a pain. It turns out that he did in the exact spot, and said he pulled a muscle while dancing at a party. I had never met the man before and never saw him again.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Wow! That's interesting, borderline spooky<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
There's this practice called "Treasure Hunting" that's kind of a fun game you play in a public place. There's a book called "The Ultimate Treasure Hunt" that talks about it. You use your creativity to imagine people you will meet, and you write down a description, then you associate them with a positive message or encouraging word. Maybe you saw a teenage boy in a red hat at the shopping mall in your imagination, then while at the mall, you may find someone who matches that description. You show that you have a message for him and that you have a message for a boy in a red hat. You then give him a message of kindness or whatever was on your heart. You have no idea, sometimes you meet someone who is having a really hard day, and it brings them to tears to have a stranger show them love.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
So, do you do treasure hunting often?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I did more when I was in grad school (and had more time). I would usually go with friends. For a while I would go to the farmers market in Santa Cruz every week and try to feel if there is something I am supposed to tell a stranger. Usually, they are vague hope-filled messages, but it's weird when I blurt out something oddly specific.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Any plans for the weekend?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
my friends are gonna visit me this weekend. we might go hiking!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
That's great! How's the weather over the weekend? I hope its warm.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Should be very sunny! you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Cool! very depressing plans ... stay home and work 😞 I have a project deadline very close.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user

<start_of_turn>user

<start_of_turn>model
Nice, where is that place? I haven't been there<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user

<start_of_turn>model
That's cool! How long is the hike?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user

<start_of_turn>model
nice! sounds fun!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hey there! What's up???<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Nothing much, how you doin?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I'm in New York this week for Thanksgiving. I'm squatting in the office today and I caught up with an old friend of mine :D<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh wow! Sounds like fun! When was the last time you had seen this friend?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
The last time in New York, back in June.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Ohh okay. I was going to say if it had been a long time maybe it'd be awkward...<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Haha, I guess if it's been a very long time there's almost too many life events to catch up on.. especially recently<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh really? Has a lot changed in your life recently?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Haha it's probably too much to go into at the moment. Let's just say life is an exciting experience. How about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Ahhh sounds exciting indeed! My life is pretty bland. I like routine, but sometimes I wish I had more time for adventures!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
What kinds of adventures?? Any ones that I would be able to join you on?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hmmmm. I really want to try bull riding. Do you have any interest in that?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I'd love to try! Can we schedule something for next week?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Sure! What does your Saturday look like?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Saturday looks pretty good, shall we shoot for something in the morning?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
hey<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
is it raining pretty bad today?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yeah, can walk too far to see all the foodtruck options<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
surprising that the rain started early this year... I don't like them too much. They make days gloomy<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yeah but I think it's good to have some rainy days in bay area, it's pretty dry here 😛<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Where I grew up, we had lots of water trouble too...<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yeah like wise, I've seen a pretty bad snowstorm when I was at my undergrad school, all flights canceled and traffics went down<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Haha... I don't think I can survive in that weather ever. Just the rains at 50 degrees make me want to sit in heated rroms<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yeah how do you like it in bay area though? I think we need more rain here<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
people say there is drought here... but we have 24 hours water supply here ... lol... never seen that in a drought ridden area<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
it is pretty dry in the mountains I believe, that's what causes fire<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
hmm.... okay. Climate change talk this morning was pretty darn interesting. did you see it?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
nope, what does it say?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
they were talking about how AI is helping climate change. Nice use of upcoming tech.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Helloooooo!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
How are you? How is your day?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Good. Don't have much to do today, feels good. How are you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm dressed very wel today so I feel good! I've been reading a lot about the psychology of positive outlook.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
So what's your outlook? Something blue?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yes. Blue is a tranquil colour. It's a good metaphor. Do you have good advice for positivity?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
You should drink more water, do some push up, and sleep early.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hey, how are you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm a bit sad. I miss my cat.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh no… Have you sent out the missing cat posters? Hope your cat is alright!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Posters is a great idea. So far I've just tried banging her catfood dish and shouting her name. Anyway, how is your day going so far?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yea, I know they love the plastic bag sound all the time. I am good, nothing special though.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
If you could go anywhere on vacation, where would you go?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I like rainforest, but I know it requires extensive training beforehand.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I heard there are rainforests in southeast Asia where you can zipline from tree to tree.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I am afraid I will be scared of doing this :)<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I won't lie, it sounds scary. I'm scared right now just thinking about it.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I don't know if there is any medication for acrophobia. I want to take plenty of it if I really have to do it.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
If there isn't one, you should invent it, and then make millions<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
That's a great idea! Maybe alcohol is such a thing.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Ha! Don't drink and zipline, mate!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oops. I won't do it again. Ha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hey sup<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
not much. any plans this weekend?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I'm going to try that thing where you hang from a wire as you go down. do you know what is it called?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
ziplining?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
that's the one! have you ever tried it?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
i have a couple years ago. it's quite a unique experience<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
where did you do it?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
i forgot where it was, it wasn't local i don't think though<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
no worries. what's the most exciting thing you ever done?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
that's a hard question and i'm tired so i'm going to go. see you<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
sure. are you just going home now?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
no, i'm going to get a massage first<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
nice. what type?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
traditional kind<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yeah I want to get one too soon<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
you should! it's relaxing after a long day. talk to you later!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
ttyl!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hello, have you seen any good movies lately?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I watched a few lately, but nothing is as good as Avatar. what's your favorite?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I have never seen Avatar, what is it about? I really enjoy the Avenger movies<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
it's a science-fiction movie with beautiful landscape of an imaginary nature with non-human creatures. people figured out a way to join that nature through Avatar transformation. the movie ends with a meaningful story of how human behaviors, e.g., cutting trees, have affected nature<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
That sounds really cool! I think that movie did really well when it was in the box office so it must be good!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
yea. what else do you like to do beside movies?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I enjoy baking cookies. I am on a quest to bake the best chocolate chip cookie 🙂 What about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I enjoy eating 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
so definitely would like to try your best chocolate cookie<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I will have to bake some soon and let you know. What types of food do you like to eat?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
thanks! I generally love noodle soups like Pho or Ramen :)<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Noodle soup is delicious! Do you make homemade noodle soup or do you prefer to go out?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I prefer to go out. I'm not a good cook haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Same! Even though I bake, I cannot cook<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
seems like we share a thing in common, yay!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Good afternoon!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
How has your week been?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
So far so good. It is holiday season. So just chilling<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I think I'm getting sick with a cold 😞 So you should chill on my behalf too cause I'm out the game for all of December.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
lol Sorry to hear that. Are you planning anything fun for December?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Nothing exciting. I'll be posted up at home for the most part. I did a lot of travelling this year so my budget would have stopped me even if I wasn't sick.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
😂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Do you have big plans?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yes! I am going to Hawaii! This will be my first time visiting Hawaii. Really excited about it.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I love Hawaii. It's a good place to be. I like going there cause it's humid so I never have to put on lotion.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
lol this is the first time I heard from a boy who cares about humidity and lotion. I cannot agree more.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Brooooo!!! It's so important. When I got to California beaches I have to carry 3 litres of lotion for the whole day.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
😂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh hello. Long time no talk. How's the day going for yuo?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Very well, thanks for asking. How has your day been?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Getting better. I just recovered from a cold. I got wet in the rain last week. Are you planning anything for the holidays?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Glad to hear you're better. Sorry to hear you were sick. I was sick a couple of weeks ago with a bad cough. There's definitely a bug going around. Admit I just want to stay healthy for the holidays and plan to relax.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh same here. I think relaxing at home should be counted among the best ways to enjoy the holidays.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Definitely! I know a lot of folks travel for the holidays, but I'm happy to stay home myself!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I'm getting there. Every year until last year, I tried to go somewhere for the Christmas / New Year, and then I got bored traveling. lol not sure if that means I'm getting old?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Me too. Now I have folks come visit me for the holidays! But that's also tiresome..<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Are you doing any home decorating then?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yes! We set up an eco-friendly (i.e. fake) Christmas tree and put up some colorful LED lights which is very festive.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I think I'm copying you. Me and my wife plan to decorate and Christmas tree too. We bought most of the decorative stuffs from the stores, but haven't yet to buy the tree.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Buying a tree is a neat experience. I was torn between buying an artificial/eco-friendly/fake one vs. a real one that smells like fresh pine. In the end, we opted for the one that we can disassemble every year.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I see. Artificial anything is better, from tree to intelligence, huh?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh, very clever pun! I like it! Depends. I remember having real Christmas trees from childhood, but these days with climate change, I think not chopping down a tree just to decorate it and then throw it out in a month is the more responsible thing to do.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I see. It's probably also cheaper. I'll buy an artificial one too. Do you have any suggestions for the store?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Admit my favorite store is Target, plus they often have good deals.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Ah that's great. My wife also likes Target a lot. She even made a Target credit card because she comes to that store very often. Okay thanks for the suggestion. I'll check out Target.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Great, I hope you find a nice tree.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hey<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
How's your day going?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
pretty good. yours?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Ehh it's fine. I didn't do so well on that history test, actually..<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
oh what happened?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Apparently Christopher Columbus didn't fight in the Civil War :')<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
hahah wait for real?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I know right! Are you taking History next semester?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
No I'm not in school anymore<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh I see. What do you do?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I train and compete in horse vaulting<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh wow. Were you born a horse, or were you turned into one?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
lol you're too funny<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Just kidding. That sounds pretty cool! Is it your job?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yeah, but I part time work on a farm. Helping with a bit of everything<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Wow, sounds very busy! Do you with money at those horse vaulting competitions?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yeah some. enough to get by<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hello<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Do you have a favourite flower?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
hmm, I haven't thought about that much, but i think lotus should be one of my favorites. Why do you ask?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm working on a theory. Why does the lotus spring to mind?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Nice! Lotus looks pretty cool and It has some delightful vibe. So what is this research about?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh, it's not research! Just a personal theory. I think that flower preferences are more revealing of personality than people appreciate.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Interesting! Whats your favorite flower?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
The gerbera. It's like a cartoon flower. As if you drew "flower" with a crayon and then it came to life.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Nice, i would love know more about your theory. Like how you can deduce personality from flower preference.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Ok, step 1 is, you ask someone what their favourite flower is. Pretty much like what we just did. Does that make sense so far?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yes<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Cool. Step 2: talk with the person some more, and ask them some more questions, and gradually develop a sense of what they're like, over the course of maybe two to five years. And voila<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hehe, i think you should publish this someday :)<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Why thank you, that's a wonderful idea!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hey how's it going<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
It's good it's good. How are you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
good. it's really hot today. I think I'm going to the pool<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh nice! Where do you live?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I live in Tokyo, Japan<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Ahh yes, Japan is hot during the summer. Last time I was in Kyoto it was 114 degrees....<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
oh have you been?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yes yes. I've been to Tokyo as well. It's so nice!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
what did you do here?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh everything! I went to an onsen, the fish market, disney land and giant robot fighting show haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
lol why did you come to Japan just to go to Disney land?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
The Disney lands are all different! There's also Disney Sea, which is completely unique!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
oh neat. I haven't heard about that robot fighting show. where is that??<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I don't really remember what part of town it was in. It was pretty cool though - I'm sure you can find it if you google "giant robot fighting show tokyo" haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
lol ok<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Have you seen any good movies lately?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Last weekend I saw "The Parasite." Ever heard of it?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
No. Why did you pick that movie?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
My friend wanted to see it. It has great reviews on IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes! What did you do last weekend?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I played music and worked on some side projects. I also started watching the new Disney service.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oooo the Mandalorian?!?!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Mostly, the deleted scenes from Avengers.. lol<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
lol Are you a big Marvel fan?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I loved the X-Men as a kid, and even collected the comic cards. Recently, I got very into the Marvel Cinematic Universe movies. How many Avengers movies have you seen?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I've only seen Spiderman. Honestly it was a little too scary and so I don't think I can bring myself to watch the other Marvel movies! haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh!-- I have a friend who looks like the actor who plays Spiderman.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh really? To be honest I think the actor is not that good looking, so not so surprising! haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yea. I think Loki is the most handsome 😀<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Who is Loki? I've never heard that name before<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
He's the adopted brother of Thor, God of thunder, and is burdened with glorious purpose. Do you feel that burden?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hey, what's up?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Just chillin'. how are you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I'm pretty good, thanks.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Do anything interesting today?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I went to the local cafe and had a double espresso. It was delicious. What about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh that's cool! I actually went to an amusement park and went on my first roller coaster!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh my gosh. What was it like??<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
It was scary! It was actually Kingda Ka, the world's tallest roller coaster. Ever heard of it?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
No, never heard of it. But I'm not really a coaster aficianado. I've heard that some people get addicted to them and travel the world to try them.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh wow! I'm not on that level yet, but I understand the appeal. Are you an adrenaline junkie at all?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
No, the opposite. I can't stand heights, horror movies, or confined spaces.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Same! I guess the roller coaster wasn't so bad because I trust the engineering haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Ha, I suppose that makes sense! Would you say that you enjoyed it?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Maybe not so much at the time, but I am glad I did it now that it's done, know what I mean?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I think I sort of understand :)<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
hello there, how is it going?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
All good. Planning to head home soon. How about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I'm quite tired. There are a lot of things I need to finish before the end of the year.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
oh... sorry to hear that. But after that it will be a hard earned vacation<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yeah, looking forward to it. Hope I don't get pinged during the holidays. Are you going to travel these dates?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I have some tentative plans, but if that doesn't pan out, will just chill at home.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
staying at home is always nice during the holidays<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Where are you based out of these days?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I'm working from LA, nice weather around here. and you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
San Francisco. It's been raining cats and dogs here since last 2-3 weeks<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
aw man, I'm sorry to hear that. at least it's not snow!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
The flu has been hitting hard as well. I had several folks in the house down at one point.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
that's really sad. are they feeling any better?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yes, everyone recovered now<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>

Extremely busy. I have been trying to prepare for the upcoming holidays. How about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm going to the bahamas. Can't wait!!!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I'm jealous, take me with you!! I would love to have some warm weather right now<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
oh where are you now?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Canada. There is another major snowstorm that might hit this weekend so I have been rushing to get everything done before it comes.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
oh no. I never seen this in person. Is it scary?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Snow is not scary as long as you're prepared. You just need to be ready to not have electricity for a while. I enjoy the aftermath of a good snowstorm because then you can go sledding or skiing.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
that does sound nice. so what are you doing these holidays?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I am having all of the extended family over for a big meal. We will also go <REDACTED_TERM> as well. What will you do in the bahamas?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
nice nice. I'm gonna go snorkeling yey<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Sounds fun! I wish I knew how to swim!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
You can stay on the shallow side I think. Well hope you enjoy time with your extended family!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
That's true. You too, have a great time snorkeling!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hi! How was your weekend?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user

<start_of_turn>model

<start_of_turn>user

<start_of_turn>model
I made donuts and samosas with an air fryer have you used one of those before<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
yum yum yum no only good old oily frier<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
do you have one at your home or were you at a friends place?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I was at my parents' place what are you up to for Thanksgiving?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm going to impersonate a pumpkin<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
wow, those are unique plans<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm pretty unique person<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I think so too<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
any other hobbies besides air frying everything? 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I want to start fermenting things kimchi for example sounds like a fun thing to ferment takes a few days apparently miso takes a couple years to fermen<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model

<start_of_turn>model
I'm doing OK. Looking forwards to the weekend. how about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
same here! I hope the weather will be nice<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
oh yeah, but I don't have my hopes too high, I heard there could be a storm coming our way<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
oh no, which areas will be affected?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
they mentioned that the whole city will experience harsh weather and that people in the outskirts will probably not get much rain and wind<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
uh oh, I'd better not to plan for BBQ then instead just enjoying playing board games inside 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yeah, it'll be good weather for staying inside with a cup of hot chocolate. Too bad my street usually floods, so I'll have to check for that<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
yea, you'd better check. where do you live?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I live at the bottom of the valley, cheap area but we do get affected by this kind of stuff a lot haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
gotcha. anything you love about where you live?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
well, the food around the area is amazing, which is definitely a plus.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
nice! I'd love to come visit that area some times<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
hello, who am I having the pleasure to chat with 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I am the superman! What about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
haha. great chating with superman, what is your power?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Being invisible. You won't see me.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
haha. what else can you do? can you read minds?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I would rather trust fMRI and machine learning to do this. I am not an expert on that. Sorry for it!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
wow that seems pretty technical. what does fMRI mean?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
The brain imaging thing that can tell you a brain's activity at a pretty high resolution.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
okay! so you seem to like science a lot?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I believe in Science! Science is my god!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Are you also doing science?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
no, I'm bad at Science. what can Science do? is it the most important thing for society?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
People are always arguing. Probably both science and democracy are both important I guess.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Does it make sense?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I think so. thanks for your point!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hello, Nice to meet you<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
If you could eat only one food for the rest of time, what would it be?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hmm... That's a tough one. I think I would go Asian Food > Chinese Food > Stirfry. What about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I think ice-cream. It may not be good for me, but I wouldn't care, haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I love ice cream too!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Okay, top three flavors?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I like vanilla more than chocolate ice cream. I typically will do any variations on vanilla. To pick from the top of my head, I would say Cookies and Cream, Mint Chocolate Chip, and Coffee. How about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Ah, that's a good way of framing it. Me, I like berries: boysenberry one, strawberry two, maybe straight chocolate number 3 to mix it up a bit.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Very nice. I love sorbet's and smoothies. Changing topics, Do you believe in an afterlife?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yes. I wonder if I'm in it right now. How would I know? What do you think?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I think so. I feel there must be something more than the physical world as we understand it.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
There's a mental world, I suppose? Understanding itself<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
What is the most supernatural experience you have ever had?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I went to a seance once in college. They had a ouija board. I can't remember if we actually contacted the spirit world because I had a bit too much to drink.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Haha.. that's a cool experience. I went to a Hindu retreat before, a number of Buddhist temples, and hung out with Christian Mystics in Santa Cruz before.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hi, how are you doing!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm doing well. what are you up to?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yeah, typical work stuff. Check emails and 99% of the inbox. delete 99%<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
wow, that's impressive. I already gave up on cleaning emails long ago<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
lol doesn't it bother you at all<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
yea, a little bit, but it's okay 🙂 what do you enjoy doing outside work?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Well, movie? I watched Terminator last night. It was a nice movie<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
ah cool. so you like action movies?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Not really. But it was fun to watch with friends 🙂 It was touching at the end of the movie<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
what happened there? I watched bits of Terminators movies but never a full one<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Are you sure you want the spoiler 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
haha sure. by the time, I get to it; I will forget the details, only knowing that it's touching at the end<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
😂 well someone died at the end Or some robots, to be more accurate 😉<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
oh no, so it's not happy ending?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
The leading character is still alive and the bad robots was killed too. So I guess it is happy ending<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
then I want to watch it! you didn't spoil much 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Nice! Hope you enjoy it!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Thanks!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hey, how are you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
doing great! what are you looking forward to?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
thanksgiving holidays 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
yay! Turkey and shopping!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
not a big turkey fan! I find it too dry<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
yea me too. I sometimes eat noodle soups in thanksgiving instead haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yeah, I would have noodles anyday over turkey. Not sure how the turkey tradition started<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
me neither. someone told me that it depends on the stuffing inside the Turkey. some people make very good stuffing<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yeah, that and the gravy. Gravy helps make it taste better too. But apart from food, Black Friday deals are a catch. Let's see what they have this year<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user

Just reading latest research. There is so much to cover. how about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I am working on a new classifier.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
ohh, interesting! What kind of classifier<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
A new classifier for hate speech. Which research topic catches your eyes most?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
You're so cool. Making world a better place. I'm mostly into NLP. What do you do when not making classifiers?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Nice! Do you refer to work or anything else?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Anything in general. You're so cool, I want to know more about you 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
You are very cool too!!<end_of_turn>

Nice to meet you Mark, I'm Tom and I work as a fish groomer.<end_of_turn>

what does a fish groomer do?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
well, we take care of people's fish. Make sure they are happy, polish their scales, clean their tanks, the usual stuff.<end_of_turn>

interesting. what's type of fish do you take care of?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
any type of fish! We have clients with guppies, goldfish, even a small sailfish once what do you do in accounting?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I balance the books and do financial analysis for a medium sized company<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
that sounds like a lot of work. do you like it?<end_of_turn>

well I actually think about pursuing photography, but it's really hard<end_of_turn>

photography is awesome, don't be afraid to follow your dreams!<end_of_turn>

thank you Tom!! I'm starting by trying to sell my pictures online<end_of_turn>

that's great! I wish you good luck with that<end_of_turn>

Hey there how's it going<end_of_turn>

All good, you?<end_of_turn>

Good. I've been trying to learn how to swim<end_of_turn>

How has that been going?<end_of_turn>

Not great, but I got really good at sort of swimming on my back haha<end_of_turn>

that's too bad hopefully with practice it'll get better what about the doggy paddle haha<end_of_turn>

just going to hang out around here and eat Turkey<end_of_turn>

that's still pretty fun are you going to cook the turkey yourself?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yeah. I'm gonna watch a video to figure it out<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hello, how are you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm great, thanks. I just ate a delicious breakfast, which always sets the day up right.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yes, breakfast is the most important meal of the day! What did you have? I woke up late so unfortunately I only had the chance to grab an apple to go.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I had eggs and hash browns. Way less healthier than your apple, I'm afraid!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Eggs are an excellent source of protein and hash browns certainly are yummy! 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Ha, that's true. If you could only eat one food forever, what would it be?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
That's a tough question. I feel like my answer would have to be carrots. Although, I would be afraid of turning orange after a few weeks! What about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yeah, turning orange would be a drawback! That turns my mind to nutrition so I suddenly want to say Soylent or one of those other "complete foods", which I think defeats the purpose of the question. I'm in a muddle!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Very true. If you said an everything pizza, you could just pick off the toppings you didn't want or eat only the toppings you would want for the day<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
BRILLIANT. I love it.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
All of this talk about food is making me hungry. Do you know any good places to eat for lunch?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
That depends. What sort of food do you feel like?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Anything that is the color green.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh, too easy! Try the Green Hut, they have franchises everywhere. All their food is green and the plates are green too.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hello! How are you doing 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm great! How's your day going?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Pretty good! I'm going to a class later in the afternoon<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh that is cool! What class? Are you working part time?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
No, I'm working full time! It's a sewing class at a makerspace near my office What about you? Do you work full or part time?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh that is awesome! For some reason I assumed it was a college class, but a sewing class sounds way better! I work full time, but I take pottery classes from time to time!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yup! I work in a technical role so I like to take arts and crafts-type classes now and then 🙂 Pottery sounds like a lot of fun<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I feel you on that! It's important to balance all the different parts of your brain. I like pottery because I also drink a lot of tea, so I get to make some tea ware.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Any plans to build a custom tea set? My family is also very into tea Mostly from tea from china<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I would love to build one, once I acquire the skills to! What kind of tea is your favorite?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I really enjoy barley tea What about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Ahh, those are mostly from japan, no? I like white teas, like silver needle.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hmm I'm not sure, I just get them from a Chinese supermarket haha You seem really knowledgeable about the different kinds of teas 🙂 What made you develop this interest?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I actually found a youtube channel called <REDACTED_TERM> that I like a lot. You should check it out! The host talks about all kinds of different teas.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh cool! What are your favorite channels to watch?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi! Are you planning something fun for Thanksgiving?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Not yet. I always made my last minute schedule planning. Probably you can try to ask me again next week.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
lol it is really like a robot answer<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I am indeed a robot. You are absolutely right. Do you want me to read a poet like my mate <REDACTED_TERM> does?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
ol can I pick the theme. Do you have a poet about Kale?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Wait. Do you like kale? Or you hate kale? I am afraid I will become a robot some day eventually. If I have to speak like this :)<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I am really not a fan of kale Do you talk to human more or computers more?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
If I continue to pretend to be a robot, I would probably say I talk to myself the most. I am trying to talk to computers more, but you know, computers don't like me.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
What's your favorite computer language then 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
You mean programming language?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yes!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I used to be a Java advocate. But you know, it doesn't do a good job in the AI days. It really makes me sad.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
lol<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Wow, hello. Can't believe we are finally talking!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yeah, sorry for the long gap! I heard you took a break and were travelling around the world. How was the travel?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
It was an interesting trip. I got to see some exotic places. For example, I hiked the Son Doong cave in Vietnam. It's the biggest and deepest cave in the world.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Great! Vietnam is still in my TODO bucket list. Did you also visit cambodia and other neighboring places?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yes. Laos and Cambodia are the two neighboring countries. Cambodia has an exotic culture. They sell spiders, scorpions, and grasshoppers as street food! It took a lot of courage for me to try them.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hehe! How long was the stay?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
10 days in total, and 5 of them were spent in the cave. What have I missed at work in those days?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Great! Good time to be back. We are still in planning phase and haven't fully aligned on the projects to tackle for next quarter.reat! Good time to be back. We are still in planning phase and haven't fully aligned on the projects to tackle for next quarter.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh, so you are already planning for the next quarter. This whole team is always living the future.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hehe, yeah! It seems like the quarter is being pushed earlier than from where it starts 🙂 I like these planning sessions. It makes me feel more confident about the work I am doing.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yeah. Some people underestimate the importance of planning, but I think it's very important to have the correct plan. Executing the wrong plan is terrible. Also, planning is fun. You can stack up so many ideas and get great feedbacks.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
True! I think we should set aside some time to discuss some project details? Does tomorrow afternoon work for you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yeah tomorrow afternoon works for me. Let me set a time on your calendar. Is 3pm good?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Okay. See tomorrow then.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
see you!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hello<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Nice to meet you! Is this your first time doing something like this?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yes, interesting task! When did you start with the team?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I have been with the company for over 3 years. Stick with the same team What about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Great to know! I joined the project earlier in the year. I think we should sync later for lunch.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
That sounds like a perfect plan!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Sure, which cafe do you prefer?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Let's try something different. What about <REDACTED_TERM>? Do you always prefer lunch sync over regular meeting syncs?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yeah right, I heard the food there is good. I am not sure what they serve there for lunch? On wednesdays.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
We can check the menu then decide :)<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Actually, the menu looks good. Looking forward to it then.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Sure. See you then!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hello. How's your week coming along?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
It's great, thanks. I'm trying to learn how to make croissants.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Wow that's interesting. I have baked cookies, but croissants seem much more sophisticated. Did you make any progress?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I've done them once or twice so far, but they haven't been flakey enough. I'm trying to figure out why. What kind of cookies have you made?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Mint chocolate chips. I think your croissants not being flakey could have something to do with your oven's temperature.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Ah, good thought, thanks!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Have you thought about melting some chocolate into your croissants? They don't have to be something unhealthy. For example, melted dark chocolate is good for the heart, and makes the resulting croissants taste much better.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Now that is a good idea. I'll give it a try next time. Would you say you have a sweet tooth?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yes. When my top favorite food looks like: cookies, M&M, danish cheese, etc., I know that I have a thing for sweet food. But who doesn't love sweet food? How about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Some people don't! But yeah, me too, I think I'd eat pastries all the time if I could get away with it.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yeah I'm afraid I wouldn't. I feel very guilty every time I gulp down an ice cream. But hey, these days there are many types of guilt-free sweet food. For example, there's this ice cream brand called <REDACTED_TERM>. It's only 320 calories a pint. And yes, it preserves most of the normal sweet flavors.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Wow! The last time I paid attention to that sort of stuff was when <REDACTED_TERM> was being marketed as a fat substitute, and caused all sorts of crazy stomach upsets.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Interesting. I heard about the sweet substitute in a program called the Keto diet. Basically, we try to limit our sugar intake every day. Successful Keto dieters have recommended the <REDACTED_TERM> ice cream to fill their insatiable crave for sugar.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Ah, maybe that's the solution I need to enjoy sweets and not feel guilty 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hello! tell me something about the holiday season?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Are you talking about thanksgiving? I plan to do plenty of shopping here. Do you have any plans?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yes, no shopping plans but I can't wait to eat thanksgiving food. yay for pumpkin pie<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Sounds great! you need not wait for thanksgiving for pumpkin pie 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
LOL I feel less guilty about eating a whole pie when i have the excuse :P<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
True! I think thanksgiving is more about sharing. So you may end up sharing the pie with the whole family :P<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
My family eats healthier than I do, so it's all mine 😛 do you like stuffing? I feel like that's only available once a year<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Stuffing! yes please! I wonder what would be the excitement levels for christmas then :)<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Also more shopping? what should I buy if I don't know what I want?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Like everything that has a discount tag! .. kidding! I normally do some research for the prices, and mostly buy clothes and electronics.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
What's the best holiday deal you've found in the past?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I bought the best suit ever for a price that may scare you 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
hit me with it!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hehe, sure! I can share some links with you later.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
How's it going?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm so sleepy today!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Not enough sleep last night?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
yeah was working all night on a homework<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh really? What class?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Biology. I'm gonna be a doc someday ha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Haha, are you in med school? Or are you pre-med?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
no high school actually haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
haha, very ambitious for a high schooler! Do you know what kind of medicine you want to practice?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I wanna be a brain surgeon!!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Ooof! VERY ambitious. Do you have steady hands?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Kind of I think<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I guess I can practice?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Is that something you can practice?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I don't know tbh<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I honestly thought it was one of those things you have to be born with... Not that you shouldn't try though!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
good point. I should ask my teacher if I have to be born with that<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Maybe its a little too early to even be thinking about this. Just aim for med school and enjoy the journey!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yeah<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
What other subjects do you enjoy? Try to keep an open mind!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hi. This is a pleasant surprise.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Haha...thanks! how did you like the gift?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Currently unpacking it I guess. How's your morning?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hope you like it! Morning is good. Busy finishing up stuff before the holidays.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I think I traveled too much the last couple of months so no holiday for me. But I'm okay with that. Going anywhere exciting?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yes<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Where to?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hawaii... looking forward to warm beaches.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
WOW. Which island? I like Hawaii.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Mauii...Hope I like it too. Never been there before.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I visited Maui. It's my second favourite island I've been to, globally. You should try driving on road to Hana. It's a whole day thing but it's worth it.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Awesome! Thanks for the tip.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hi! Sorry for the late response. How are you doing?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm great, thanks! I'm meeting some friends for a soccer game soon. What about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I just got a matcha latte 🙂 Doing some work at my desk. Do you play soccer often? I'm trying to get into doing a regular physical activity<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yes, but I'm terrible at it. It's fun to play anything with friends, I think. Would you prefer to exercise with a group, or by yourself, do you think?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I think playing a team sport would be fun if it's casual but I primarily run by myself if I exercise. I also got the Ring Fit adventure game on the switch recently. It's basically a game-ified way to exercise<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm thinking about getting a Switch, would you recommend it?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yes! There are a lot of really great games on the Switch. Two of my favorites are Octopath Traveler and Fire Emblem. Do you play a lot of video games?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm not much of a gamer but it's something I'd like to get into.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
What do you do in your free time?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I like to read for fun. I just finished a book called Temeraire. It's an adventure story set in the Napoleonic navy, like Patrick O'Brien, except there are dragons too.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh cool! I read a lot for fun too 🙂 My favorite genre is sci-fi fantasy.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
What's the most recent good thing you read?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
My recent favorites have been mostly sci-fi (Exhalations, Vita Nostra and Dark Matter) but I like a lot of Sanderson/Garth Nix fantasy books<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
hey, what's up?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
What do you think about human like chat bots?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I can't wait for them to be great conversationalists!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yep, we seemed to have made some great progress over last few years. Do you think the positives outweigh the negatives<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
are there even any negatives? what are they?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Like impersorsination? Though it sounds far fetched :)<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
People can already impersonate other people though! I think it'd be great to have bots to converse with<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
True that! Some of these bots are very engaging and funny. They are now good at even sarcasm I wonder how far are we from the time these bots start giving monologues :)<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
What do you think are the big advantages? Like personal assistants?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I think it can take many different forms as a product. The research implication is also huge! It will signify how AI research has progressed so far and better place to tackle more futuristic problems 🙂 Sort of like stepping on the moon 🙂 I might be overselling it here 😛<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
No, I agree -- it's such an exciting time to be alive to get to witness all this and be a part of it. I wonder if I'll be able someday to get a chatbot to just auto-suggest conversations for me<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
The current auto-suggestions already do pretty good 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yeah those are actually really good for a few words! I'm imagining like it comes up with a whole conversational response, like a default template<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
haha, pretty far fetched 🙂 Nice having this conversation with you!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Same with you!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Any big plans for the upcoming holidays?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Sorry for the late response -- Yes, I will be going skiing in Tahoe over the holidays.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
That sounds amazing. I want to learn how to ski but I feel like I'm too old and falls would have lifelong impacts. Are you going with friends?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hi 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I just came back from work. so tired<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh I am sorry to hear! What did you work on?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm a lawyer. so talking to clients most of the day<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh you are a lawyer. I've been so interested in this profession.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
really? why?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
it's so stressful 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
It is so different from what I am doing to earn a life<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
what do you do?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I am a painter<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
oh wow what type of paintings do you do?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I do oil painting.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
nice. like of people or nature or something else?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I do a lot of different kinds<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
cool I wanna see it someday<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Sure! No problem!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Do you believe in miracles?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Lol. No. I know too many people whose lives suck.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Should we be helping them, so it sucks less?\<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
It's too many of them out there. You help who you can. Regardless, I wouldn't say I believe in miracles - well, if I got promoted next cycle I might change my mind.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Haha... Well, it sounds like career is really important to you. What matters to you the most in life?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Right now, not much. It's unclear. Career is a good fallback because you get told what good means and you act accordingly. I haven't gone through the process of shaping my values. What about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I'd say that I want to live for the best possible world in my lifetime. It's probably a result of my playing too many video games as a child.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
We didn't have electricity growing up. Explains a lot. Lol.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Does not having had electricity help you empathize more with people of differing backgrounds and/or makes you feel a bit a distance from those who don't understand?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
It makes it easier to empathise with people who grew up lacking things. Not sure it makes me empathise with people in general. Where did you grow up?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I grew up in the United States, but my parents were immigrants and ended up being scammed of all their money, so we moved to Taiwan to live with family for a little bit.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
ALL THEIR MONEY? By a person or an organisation?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I was kind of too young to really understand, but apparently there are people who scam Asian immigrants into investing in their own restaurant business. I know that the other part of it was that my mom got sick/hospitalized, and we didn't have insurance. To be honest, I don't really know what really happened versus what my parents want people to think. I just know that one minute I was in the US, and then they put me on a plane to Taiwan, and I never saw my stuff again. In some ways, it made me more sentimental. Would you say you are more grounded and practical as a result of your background?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hello!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Do you have any holiday plans for christmas?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Nothing much, I am going to sit back and relax at home, how about you ?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Same here! I would imagine spending the whole time watching movies and netflix shows. Do you have any netflix recommendations for me?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Netflix has great documentaries on different topics , I particularly liked wild wild country and explained, as for shows you should watch 'billions' Hope you like them!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
oh right, already seen wild wild country. What is billions about?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
It's based on the life of a wall street hedge fund owner, how he makes money and fights with the government when they try to destroy him. Very well made and has a good plot.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I have just seen 1 season of Friends I should give it another try though 🙂 Have you seen Frasier?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Not yet What's it about?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
A psychiatrist working for radio .. Great humour! its actually a spinoff from a very famous series called cheers. So people are already familiar with his character.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Great! how is everything else going? how was your trip last week?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Everything is ok, had a really nice trip. Visited SF, Grand canyon and Vegas. Was a lot of fun exploring all these new places. Have you been to Grand canyon ?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Actually not yet! May be something i can visit this christmas 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
You should visit it sometime, it's a wonderful place. Try to drive down there yourself or with a group of friends<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
True! Well, thanks for your inputs! Have a good rest of the day! :)<end_of_turn>

Nice talking to you too!<end_of_turn>

Hi there!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
are you participating in the mentorship program this cycle?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
You mean as a mentor or a mentee?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
either of them... I find mentorship overall pretty useful<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I have done it in the past but not this cycle. What about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I signed up this time to be a mentee. I have got a good mentor .<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Wow, that is nice of you. For the mentor program, personally I prefer more 1:1 conversations than the group discussions. The group discussion i useful as well but the topics are too general.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
yeah... I certainly prefer 1:1 as well, but sometimes it good to hear other peer perspective as well.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Thanks for sharing your experience! Now I am thinking maybe I should join as a mentor as well since I enjoyed it as a mentee 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Great! What sort of things do you plan to mentor on?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hmm, maybe about work life balance 😉<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Very cool. I have been working on my communication skills with my mentor this cycle<end_of_turn>

<start_of_turn>model
Yes, we graduated back in the seventies. We meet for dinner every year and take turns to host.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
neat. what are y'all eating?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I don't know!! That's what I'm scared about. Everyone else is a great cook and I'm a klutz. Do you like cooking?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
lol what's a klutz? yeah I like, but I'm not good<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
What's your favorite dish to cook? Do you have a go-to?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
ground beef pretty easy<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Ah, solid. What's your favorite sport?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I like badminton. I'm quite decent at it<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I played that in high school once or twice. I liked that it's pretty easy for beginners, unlike, say, squash.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I never played squash. would love to try<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Don't! It's very hard! You feel like an idiot until you've practiced for months and months.<end_of_turn>

Okay...so I need someone to help me though a scenario I've been pondering.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Sure, whats the scenario?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
My partner's former friend invited me for lunch (they are not in good books right now). But during their friendship I formed an independent bond with the other person because we all used to hang out a lot. Now I feel like I have to take sides.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
That's a tough scenario to be in 🙂 I firmly believe in talking this through with your partner. Though i don't know the specifics of why things went bad between your partner and his friend, but I believe things can always improve between friends.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I hope they do. Getting older already means smaller circles. It sucks to lose friends for arbitrary reasons. That's good advice though. I fear raising the issue might sound like treason. Lol.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
True about that! I also think time helps to heal certain situations. So may be doing nothing is the best way forward.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
AKA avoiding all texts from everyone?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Nope, that would be extreme. May be just putting some balance between the two options.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
People always say to find a balance but never say what the balance is. It's used so often that it's vacuous.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Right, I guess that's because there is no one answer to this. It depends on what you value more and some factors around you. Also, life won't be interesting if others are figuring things out for you 😉<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Lol. I'm finna be single.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hehe, everyone is much finer being single 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hello there!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
How's your day going?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I've seen better days, how about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm good I'm good. What's getting you down?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
The clouds overhead are playing on your mind, any plans for the coming vacations?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm thinking of going to visit my family. How about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Was thinking the same, where does your family live?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
They're in New York. How about yours?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Mine is in India, it is a long way away.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Ahh what city? I've visited India before.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hyderabad, it is a beautiful city in the southern part of India. Which cities have you gone to in India?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hyderabad! and Bangalore! Great food in both cities! Is it still hot this time of year?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
It varies, but can go till 30C in the winters as well. New York must be snowing right?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yes. I was actually just there a few weeks ago for Thanksgiving and got to see the first snow of the season! Ever been to New York?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
No, I've never been to the East Coast, thinking of going after the winter, I don't like the cold.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hey, how are you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm good. How are you doing today?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Great, just had some delicious lunch. How about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I was flying my kite today in the sunshine! What did you have for lunch?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
nice! Garbanzo fritters and mussels 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh that is great! I love seafood - especially shellfish!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yeah, it's very healthy too. I want to someday go crabbing..it is really popular in SF<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh nice! Is it hard?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
not really, it just requires a lot of patience. You fill up the bait in the crab-pot and drop it in the ocean. Then you wait for a couple of hours to pull the crab-pots out, and voila, you'd have crabs -- if you are lucky!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh wow, you sound like an expert! Have you done this before?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
nah! Just watched a lot of youtube videos<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
haha, you really have done your research I suppose! Ever done any other kind of fishing or hunting?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
nope, but I've seen a lot of videos on that too<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Ahh, would you consider yourself an outdoorsy type of person?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
depends on the day. Some days I'm very outdoorsy, on others I just like to be inside<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>

Oh wow! Are you going to watch it live? Or watch it on TV?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Live in san jose This Saturday.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh, the sharks??? Hokey is actually really fun live! Although, it can be a little violent.. haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yeah! That what I heard as well. There are players just for fight! Wow, must be fun to watch lol Are you planning anything for the weekend?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
You might like the UFC haha. I actually have a jiu jitsu tournament coming up so this weekend I will be training!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
lol I will try if I can watch ufc live 😉 Wow, when did you start jiu jitsu?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
It's just been a little over a year. I'm still pretty amateur, but I figured I should give competing a try and just put myself out there.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
wow, that's amazing. Good luck with it!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yeah, as long as I do not pass out, I will consider that a win!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
lol I will cross my fingers for you then<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Where do you stay?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
At Home :)<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Who created You?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
A humble man made me!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hey, how're you doing? Busy with your work?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yes, actually it was a very busy day! How's your day so far?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Well, usual workday. Reading others' code, debugging, experimenting…<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hope you are having fun doing that 🙂 Any plans for the weekend?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Not yet. I am actually thinking about traveling to Europe next spring. What about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Europe sounds fun! I will just stay home and watch the game. Where in europe do you plan to visit?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I like all the historical sites, so probably France, Germany, or Italy.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Sounds great! I recommend spain. It's perfect for road trips.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I also need to pick up my Spanish. I learned it in my college, but since then haven't used it that much.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yep, i tried learning spanish too, but couldn't make much progress. But i should do decent with my german.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
True! I learnt it from school. But didn't get much chance to speak. Hope you have fun with your trip!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Thanks! Let me try to make all the arrangement as soon as possible. Hope you also enjoy your weekday and weekend as well<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hey! How's your day been?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
It's good! I spent most of it watching horse racing. How about yourself?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
nice! what's your favorite part about watching horse racing? My day has been pretty busy, but I had a nice lunch with a friend. It was good to catchup with him<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I actually like to put down some money, but I wouldn't call it my favorite part, since I usually lose it... haha. Catching up with friends is great! How long had it been?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
The last I saw him was a month ago! So yup it was great Haha, nice 🙂 Got any fun plans for the weekend?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm thinking of going deep sea fishing. Ever tried that before?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Nope I haven't, have you been fishing before?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Just once! I got super sea sick.. haha Have any fun weekend plans yourself?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Haha 😆 Yeah I get sea sick on boats too Nothing much, just visiting some friends in San Francisco<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh very cool. I hear its nice over there. Do you go often?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yeah I would say maybe every couple weeks or so what are your favorite cities to visit?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
New York is the top of my list because my family lives there! As far as the city itself though... I think I'd prefer someplace outside of the US, like Tokyo. What about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
nice! I love NYC 🙂 so fun to visit yeah I would probably also say New York is my favorite city inside the US I also like Paris, it's so pretty there<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh I've never been! It is such an iconic place, I have to make the time to get there soon.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
You should, it's a beautiful city!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hello, how are you doing today?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I heard they are giving out some goodies in microkitchen.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I love pop ups! What kind of goodies are they giving away?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I guess its a jacket! Very much needed that in the cold 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
That's such a great idea, especially at this time of the year. I'm not too big a fan of the cold. I prefer warmer climates. Do you enjoy the cold?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Sure hate it! Limits our ability to go out even for a walk! Its good that we don't get to suffer extreme cold weather!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Me too! I moved here a few years ago to get out of the extreme cold. I do not care for bundling up and having to wear so many layers just to go buy eggs at the store.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh nice! Where did you live before?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Upstate New York. We got a foot of snow every week during my last winter there. I am so glad to not have to shovel snow now<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
New york! Nice! Best place to live 🙂 .. right, except for the cold!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Very beautiful during all the seasons but yes, summer and winter can get extreme!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Anyways, i guess we should better hurry up to get the goodies. I remember last time they ran out of it.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Very true. Which MK were they in again?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
The one in our floor. I will get by your desk and we can walk there.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Sounds good, thanks!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
How's your day going?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Pretty busy, lots of work to finish up. You?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Likewise. What have you been up to that gives you so much work?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
A couple projects that I am trying to finish up before Thanksgiving 🙂 Do you have any fun plans for the break?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
What is a break? I'm a grad student. I don't understand the concept of a break. Just kidding. I don't have any plan. Probably just going to work through the break.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Haha XD so what do you like to do for fun?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I go to the gym and run until I find enough fun.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
cool! I've started to run a bit as well not long distances though, just a couple miles<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
A couple of miles is very impressive. When I started, I couldn't even last 1 mile.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I'm exhausted by the end of it though 😛 Do you like to run long distances or mostly sprints?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I like to do long distances. I have run a few marathons.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
wow! that's amazing did you do any marathons this year?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
No. Not this year. This is my half-marathon year. Instead of running marathons, I run one half-marathon every month.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
oh wow, what was the last half marathon you did?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Two days ago. It was a tough one.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Cool!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
hello there, how is it going?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Pretty great. I just won a pingpong game. What about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
that's nice. I am just working on some documentation. Do you play pingpong often?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
No, very rarely. It's kind of amazing that I won, but I'm still taking credit for it.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
thats very impressive then, congrats!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Haha thank you, I guess I'm just a natural. What's your favourite game?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I really like to play tennis, badminton and racquetball. I don't really get a chance to play them often though, specially racquetball<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
What's racquetball like? From context clues, I'm guessing that it involves hitting a ball with a racquet<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
well, it's like a cage match of tennis. The main difference is that both players play in the same 'court' and the ball is smashed against a wall instead of passing it over a net into the opponent's court. Kind of like playing pingpong vs the table.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Wow! A cage match! Does it get physical?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
it depends haha, there is a lot of bumping into each other to run after the ball, and sometimes the ball hits you too. Overall it feels like a super fast paced version of tennis, really tiring!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
That sounds fun. I think of tennis itself as being really athletic and tiring, so I don't think it's a sport for me, though!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
ping pong can get quite intensive too! I guess short ping pong sessions are not that tiring though. Wanna have a match?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
What a good idea, I'd love to!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Show me your anger!!!!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Fuckkkkkkk!!!!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
hi<end_of_turn>

<start_of_turn>user

<start_of_turn>model
good question. I don't even know what I am doing<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
haha, forget it. what else do you like to do beside work?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
lots of fun stuff. eating sleeping 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
these are important things to do in life 😉<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yeah. keep minimalist life style only do things you have to do 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
what food do you like to eat?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Asian food prefer spicy one<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
like Szechuan or Hunan? 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yes yes yes! like that style. Do you like spicy food?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I like noodle soup like Pho or Ramen. I also like Beijing duck a lot!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
what is your favorite place for ramen?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I love <REDACTED_TERM> in San Mateo<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
haven't tried that one! will give it a try next time!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
yes, you should!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model

<start_of_turn>model

<start_of_turn>user

<start_of_turn>model
I love sushi do you know of any good sushi places?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
arghhh hard question ... I only know Ramen places for Japanese food 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model

<start_of_turn>user
San Mateo to me has the best Ramen restaurants: Parlor and Dojo? oh no question mark 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I haven't been to those palces before. Going to have to check them out! thanks for teh recommendation<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
my pleasure 🙂 do you live near San Mateo?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
no, but I'm willing to drive for good ramen<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
excellent. let me know when you have tried those. I like Parlor better because it has soft-shell crabs<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I"ve never had softshell crab before, but it sounds really good!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
yup it's delicious!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hey, how's your day going?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
okayish, it is flying by quicker than I expected. How is your day going on?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Slowly, not much to do. Been twiddling my thumbs all day what have you been up to?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh, I would love to twiddle my thumbs. You're so lucky! Today, I've been mostly attending meetings, reading and writing docs, reading papers etc.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
That's a lot! I've just been cloud gazing - I saw a giraffe and an ice cream cone<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
wow! I sometimes drift off during work, and see similar things in my head.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
What kind of work do you do?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Mostly saving the world from mess on social media. How about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I'm taking a break from work. Going to go travel the world<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Nice, what all places would you be going to?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Australia and New Zealand to start then maybe Singapore<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I just met someone who went diving in Australia. Apparently, you cannot fly 24 hrs after you dive, because your body accumulates too much <REDACTED_TERM> when breathing with a cylinder So, don't do that!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Thank you for the tip! I don't plan on going diving, I plan to hike the mountains and go see kangaroos!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
That's equally amazing! I wish I can explore such places one day. It's just so expensive<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I won a lot of money through the lottery 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
woah!... You know sharing is caring. You should share that money with me :)<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Haha, very true! Besides the trip, I donated the rest to charity so I will need to go back to work when I get back<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
you are a kind soul!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>

How is your day going?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
It is pretty good. A little bit tired though.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
How is your day?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
My day is okay. At least, I'm not tired. What made you tired?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I went to gym and worked on weight lifting.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh. That's hardcore. Have you been lifting for a long time?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
No, I am just a starter.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Do you go to the gym often?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I go everyday. In fact, I'm in a running challenge.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Wow<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
It's actually not that impressive. I can only run. I cannot lift weight.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
You can get a coach to start it!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh that's a really interesting idea. I like to be coa<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hello, how is your day?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
It's good. It's raining a bit, but I am enjoying a good book. How about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
It's good, I just got back from walking my dog What book did you read?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm reading the Three Body Problem. Ever heard of it?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
No, what is it about?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
It's a sci-fi book about aliens and a type of virtual reality. Pique your interest at all?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Slightly, I typically read fiction but I can curious what type of virtual reality is discussed in the book<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Cool. This virtual reality is a based on life on an alien planet. There is a twist though. Do you want me to spoil it for you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yes!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
The virtual reality is actually based on a real alien civilization! And that civilization is coming to attack earth! dun dun dun dunnnnnnn<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Woah! That is fascinating! I will have to pick up a copy of the book to read.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
There are other twists as well, so I haven't spoiled the whole thing! To be honest I am not a fan of spoilers<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Thanks for not spoiling it completely but you gave a really intriguing description that makes me want to read it now. I will have to pick it up after work<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
The audi book is also very good! Ever give those a try?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I only gave those a try when I had a concussion and could not read. I enjoy having a physical book in hand and reading at the pace I prefer. Do you listen to a lot of audi books?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hey, how's it going?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
It's good! How is your day?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
My day is good. A bit sad that it gets dark so early but oh well. Did you do anything fun over the weekend?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yes, the darkness can be a bit depressing. This weekend I went rock climbing! It was great! How about yourself?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Rock climbing sounds fun! I had a pretty low-key weekend. Ended up going to watch a movie.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh nice! What movie?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Knives Out. It had Daniel Craig and one of the famous Captain America "Chris" person (I can't keep track of all of the famous Chris names).<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hahah yes, they all look the same! I saw that very same movie over Thanksgiving break. Lots of twists and turns!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Cool. So if it weren't so dark and cold outside, what kind of activities would you do?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hmm good question. Evening runs can be fun, but it can be a little scary when it's dark out!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yeah, sunlight is good. I wish I could live part-time in different parts of the world to have summer all year round. Have you ever visited the southern hemisphere?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yes! I've been to Australia. It was very nice; I regret not going to see the southern lights. Me personally, I like winter. But I'd prefer it to be more brief than it actually is here... Where are you from originally?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I've always wanted to go to Australia. I'm originally from the US.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Ahh me too! You should definitely try to visit Australia at least once!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Will do! Bye.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
What's your name?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
My name is pikachu. it’s nice to meet you! What are you up to this month?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Nice to meet you pikachu! pikachu, pikachu, pikachu? (That meant, I'm literally catching Pokemons on my phone right now!) What're you up to lately?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I’m trying to organize my life and start the new year ready to go! What about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Wow, that's impressive. Admit I'm just trying to take each day and week as they come.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
What do you do to unwind?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Honestly, I like to catch Pokemons on my phone a lot. That must be upsetting since your name is pikachu though...sorry...<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oddly enough, I also catch Pokémon on my phone. I used to do it more, but it just never ends. I used to do it everyday. Now I mostly catch them when I travel somewhere exotic.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oooh, that is more fun, but I don't travel that much these days so I'm grateful when I spot a Pokemon to catch where ever I happen to be. Do you have a favorite Pokemon? Mine is the cute pink JIgglypuff!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
In the game, i use vaporeon a lot. But I think pikachu is the cutest, that’s why I changed my name to match. Lately, I think baby Yoda is the cutest though. Have you seen baby yoda?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I have heard of him and seen him here and there, but admit I don't have Disney+, so I only heard baby yoda is super cute and popular. Maybe I'll binge watch The Mandalorian in a couple of years like I did Game of Thrones...<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
What is your favorite show to watch right now?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Admit I really like watching Modern Family and Mix-ish. Reruns and new episodes. I find them cleverly written. What're you watching these days on TV?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I was watching cat rescue videos on YouTube a lot. There sure are a lot of stray cat babies that get stuck in pipes and gutters in South Korea.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh dear, I never imagined that happening. Poor things, but good to hear they're being rescued.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Do you like cats or dogs better? Do you have any pets?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I used to have a cat, hamster and fighting fish, but they've all lived long lives and gone to pet heaven, but I sure miss them.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
hi there! it's a lovely day to chat with you<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Isn't it just! What are you up to today?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
ah I'm waiting to finish work earlier to meet my son at home 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh, excellent! What does your son like to do for fun?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
ah he's like to ride his little bicycle around the house and asks me to follow 🙂 what are you up to today?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm taking a fake sick day from work so I can go to the movies.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
haha that sounds like a good plan. who are you going with? 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Just by myself. I love seeing movies by myself, it's the best.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
haha no one will interrupt you!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Exactly. Exactly! Plus, I don't have to share the popcorn with anyone. What's your favorite movie?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
haha, popcorn for yourself. my favorite movie is Avatar! what about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Get out of town! It's Avatar too. What are the odds!?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
haha it's a great movie that I haven't found anything of the same quality<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yes. Can't wait for the sequels.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
hello there, nice seeing you<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Likewise.... wanted to know if you and the kids would want to join us for Disneyland trip around Christmas?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
oh wow, that sounds like so much fun! definitely count us in. what is your plan?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Tentative plan is to drive to LA on 23rd and then stay at the Disney resort for 2 nights. I heard Christmas eve they have loads of fun events.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
awesome, I think I won't tell my kids and surprise them last second. How bad do you think the traffic is going to be?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Great idea! I will probably do the same. Surprise surprise.... Traffic might be a little harsh.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yeah... thats a shame but nothing we can do about it. What do you plan to do about dinner the 24th? Do the rooms in the resort have kitchens?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Good point. I am not sure about that. Let me inquire about that. If not, then we can look for an Airbnb closeby. Does that work?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yeah, I think so. It might be a tough decision though, if we want to have a nice dinner then we have to leave the parks early to start cooking. Another option is to have dinner at a restaurant.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
but I would think everything is closed on christmas eve<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Thats true. Hotels with restaurants sometimes offer dinners for christmas and new year's eve. We should call and ask about it.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Sure, I can take a lead on that. What are you getting for your <REDACTED_TERM> year old this time?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I was thinking on getting a large set of standard legos. What will you get for yours?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Likewise. My son is crazy about legos.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
hopefully they don't lose any in the trip. Its going to be hard to explain to them how santa managed to find us in the hotel!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hi! How's your day going?<end_of_turn>

<start_of_turn>user

<start_of_turn>model
Cool! Planning to spend a couple days at Tahoe What kind of board games do you like?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
we've been doing Games of Thrones lately. the game takes a very long time to finish though!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Cool! Do you watch Game of Thrones?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I do. I'm a super fan of it (not the last season though haha). did you watch?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
haha, nope I don't watch it, but my roommate is super into it what other TV shows do you like?<end_of_turn>

<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hello<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
How's your day going?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Good so far. How's yours?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Ehhh so-so. My moped broke down on the way to work this morning and I am in the shop getting it fixed...<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh! That's bad! How long will it take to get it fixed?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
The mechanic is trying to figure that out now. Apparently I wasn't supposed to be using diesel lol.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Haha! Hope it doesn't take too long. Let me know if you are able to make it for lunch.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Okay sounds good. Would you be able to pick me up by the way, if they don't finish up here in time? Did you drive to work today?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh, I have a packed schedule today at work. I will find time in about an hour. Let me know if that works.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
That should be fine I think. Did you catch the Warriors game last night btw?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
no, i was busy catching up with a friend. I heard they played really well. Rooting for them this season 🙂 Ahh, they lost again 😞 Things aren't going to be too good until Steph gets better! Oh! I think they will find a way. The team still looks too strong to me.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Haha I appreciate your faith, but their record thus far is hard to refute!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
hehe, i am true fan! Well anyways let me know how the repair work goes. I need to run now for a meeting. ttyl<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hello!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
any improvements in your marathon time?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
No, only a few minutes. I still find it difficult to run long races<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I see. Are you planning to do any sporting events in the coming months?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I think a triathalon would be cool<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I like doing Spartan race. It's an obstacle race which is challenging but not overtly so like marathons and triathlons<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I haven't heard of a Spartan race before, what does it involve?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
It has abt 20 obstacles like crossing high walls, monkey bars, etc. Its fun<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
oh wow a full obstable course. that does sound fun! I like the variety<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Wanna sign up for next one? Its in February in Monterey<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
hmm that sounds very soon. would there be enough time to train? I think I would like to try one later in the year<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
1-2 months is a good amount of time, if you workout regularly. It's a lot about the technique, which we can practice in training sessions.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
ok, sign me up. it's more fun to do it with friends<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Awesome! There is a training ground in San Jose. Will coordinate with you next time we go for practice.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Sounds good!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hey, how are you doing?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm great, thanks. I'm getting ready for a skydiving lesson.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
ooh, nice. That sounds adventurous. Where is it?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Right near my home town: Seville, Spain.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Awesome! Is this the first time you are diving?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yes. I'm feeling a little trepidatious. Have you done it before?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Nope, never! I know a couple of friends who have. They mentioned its absolutely terrifying. Good luck!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Haha thanks! Have you tried any extreme sports?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I tried skiing and white water rafting. Does that count as extreme?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
White water rafting, definitely! As for skiing, that depends on how fast you go. Do you ski a lot?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
nope, whenever I went fast I fell badly<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I tried skiing once, and by the end of the beginner class I was able to make it down a baby-sized slope. I was very proud of myself.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yeah, they make you do that. I also tried going down the baby slope, but my stopping wasn't perfect, and I mostly fell at the end<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hey, so long as you get to the bottom, it's all good!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
hey, whats up?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I was not able to attend the lectures last week. Can you help me understand some concepts?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
well, I'm not sure I'm the best for the job, but I can try!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I was not able to figure out the last few slides. I think its best to discuss this in person. Do you have time right now?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I'm afraid not, right now I'm in a meeting and I'll be going for lunch afterwards. How about tomorrow at noon?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
No problem! Sure. We still have plenty of time for the test. Anyways, how's your preparation going?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
not feeling too sure about it tbh. I've been super busy so I haven't study much 😞. I might join some of the study sessions later<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Same feeling here! But i think the syllabus may not that tough. You may be able to cover it up over the weekend.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
not my ideal idea of a weekend, but I guess it'll have to be like that.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
True! This will be a very hectic November! I do like the course content though. Its very much up to date with latest research findings.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yeah, our professor really goes out of their way to make the class interesting, glad I managed to get in it.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Thats pretty cool! I hope you do well next week.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
thank you, bye!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hello!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
How was your party last week?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
It was really fun! We are a bunch of turkey<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
haha... you ate Turkeys' or you like calling your bunch Turkey?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
*ate 😂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Haha... thought so! But it was funny eitherways<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
So much turkey leftovers<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
did you cook it at home, or got it from outside?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
We cooked it at a friends house. I brought the mashed potatos haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Nice... I always find it hard to fit the turkey in my small oven. Also, we are not big turkey fans... so we roll with Thanksgiving with chicken 😉<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
chicken also sounds good<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
we played a lot of fun games in our party. Did you have any fun things you did?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
We played pictionary. I never played before but it was a bunch of fun. what did you play?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Pictionary is fun! We played office tennis. In that we take paper balls and using writing pads as rackets, two players have to work together to put the ball in a bucket kept at a distance. It was a lot of fun.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
that sounds very challenging<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
hello<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
how is the youtube video creation going?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
going pretty good, I was about to finish composing my second song and post it on youtube/soundcloud etc<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Whoa! Looking forward to listening to it. What softewares you use for it?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I used logic pro x, pretty handy stuff as you can write code to generate guitar strumming pattern<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
oh cool! What sort of music do you compose?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I got most inspired by Jazz and electro swings, but am trying to get more into jpop recently as one of my band member likes anime<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Nice.... you are a rockstar! 😉<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
haha thanks, do you plan any instruments?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yeah.... I play bit of guitar. Just got my first monitor this week<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
nice I'm tyring to learn guitar recently also, it's so hard to play f chord<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
yes, the bar chords are the worst. It took me several months to play them well. I still can't play them for a long time though<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
right, but bar chords are so versatile, almost like cheating as in you can play anything with the same gesture<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
That's true. It's like the alphabets in a language. Once you know them, you can pretty much write word<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
will spend more time work on my bar chord!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hey! How’s your day going?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Bruhhhhhh!!!!!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
What??<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I was screaming in agony upon recounting my day.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh no! What’s happened?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
A project I've been working on for some months got shelved. So I'm a mix of helpless, sad, and angry.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Ah that sucks. At least it’s not personal. Not that it helps right now, but that does happen all the time<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Lol. Would you say that to someone who lost a loved one - or some similar circumstance?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Well, no, of course not! Let me stick with “Ah that sucks” by itself, then.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
No worries. Was pulling your leg. I forgot to ask how your day was going?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Haha, apart from having my leg pulled mercilessly, it’s going great ;). My main problem today is deciding what to have for lunch.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Lol. What are your choices? I'm trying out keto! It's pretty tiring.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh I hear a lot about keto. I’m trying to watch my weight, would you recommend it?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
What was the most difficult thing you experienced this past year?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I normally don't reflect back too much on things, but i guess 2019 have been very favorable for me in terms of time spent with family and friends and work life balance. Why do you ask?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I just released a book on <REDACTED_TERM> to help people process the past 12 months and start the new year with a fresh outlook 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Great! Good idea to help people figuring out their new year resolutions 🙂 So how do i get a fresher outlook? 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Well, in my book, I took inspiration for the 24 days of Advent, and put together a workbook that you fill out each day for 24 days. It goes through accomplishments, passions, understanding, forgiveness, with each day a different theme.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Wow! Sounds amazing if we practice that! I think the idea does have some potential. How did you come up with this idea?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
We created a scholarship for leaders from <REDACTED_TERM> to visit an international institute at <REDACTED_TERM> for which there was no African representation. During the program, we also did a lot of coaching with the young leaders. This book captures a bit of that journey that we are all on, and also all the proceeds are going to fund next year's cohort.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Thats great! This is valuable help for the community. I think mental health is one of the bigger challenges facing humanity.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I think if we were all able to bring out our best selves, the world would be much better. When did you first realize mental health was important?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
That is actually a quote stolen from my TL when i joined my first company after graduation. I guess now after 5 yrs of work experience, I fully agree with it 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
What do you prioritize in your life? Like top 5 things?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
1. stay happy; I think family and friends play a big role here. 2. Meaningful work life; this may mean exploring around with new stuff 3. multiple hobbies that keep you busy ... so on 🙂 What about you? is there a right answer to this? :)<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
1) The idea of what it must be like to be "on Earth as it is in Heaven" from the Lord's prayer. I feel like we were designed for a purpose, rather than random chance. A more concrete way to put it is simply show love to the greatest capacity we can. 2) Taking care of myself physically, mentally, spiritually. 3) Family 4) Work 5) Music<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Nice! That's very thoughtful and spiritual 🙂 Also music earned a spot 🙂 yay!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yea, I've always said that if I wrote a memoire, I would title it: "Jazz, Jesus, and Video Games." Do you have a title of a book that you've thought of writing before?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I am actually not much of a reader. I usually hide it by quoting john nash ~ reading books corrupts original thoughts 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
That’s why you write your own books! Then it’s all your thoughts on your terms :)<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hehe! True! It may turn out to be a best seller :)<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hey!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
How's your day going?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model

I'm good! Just getting ready to watch a basketball game. Hope your headache goes away!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Haha, thanks! Never get them, so it's super weird Who's playing?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hmm, try taking some <REDACTED_TERM>! I'm going to see the Warriors vs. the Grizzlies. Ever see them play?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I haven't Honestly I probably wouldn't be able to identify which sport they played<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Haha, all the animal names confuse me as well! Who came up with these naming conventions? I'd name my team something more original: The New York Chairs!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
lol, sounds better to me :) I'm actually at the <REDACTED_TERM> opening remarks<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh cool! What is "NeurIPS"?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Neural Information Processing Systems<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh wow! Sounds fancy! What is that about?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
It's the biggest ML conference in the world<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh, ML?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yes, machine learning<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Ahh! I saw a scary movie about that once. It was about this sentient AI in a dystopian future - very very creepy. It was called Wall-e, ever heard of it?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I've definitely heard of it, but somehow never saw it!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user

Kayaking sounds fun! I tried it in our last team offsite.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user

<start_of_turn>model
I found it very tough to learn, but my friends picked it up very quickly. I am sure you will do good.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user

<start_of_turn>model
Cool! I need to run for a meeting. Talk to you later.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hello, I feel like I've met you before, can you remind me your name?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
It's on the screen! I don't recall meeting you. Do you have a sense of where we met?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh thats right, I did not see that. Well, I'm not sure... maybe at a party? I'm very bad remembering people so maybe its just that. How are you doing?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Did we dance together perchance?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
We might have, I don't remember that much of that night.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Lol. Were you schwasty?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Maybe a little bit. Where do you work?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm a cardiologist in Palo Alto. I have a private practice. You?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Thats pretty cool! I'm a sofa tester in cupertino.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm not sure I know what that is.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
well its very simple, I test how comfortable sofas are.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Lol. Not to be elitist but...that's a real job?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yeah! It is a very demanding job, requires a carefully crafted set of skills. They pay is really good too.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hello. Deja Vu.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
what does that mean?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
It's French for "already seen." I know it's used when you see something for the second time or you have the feeling that something has happened before and you're re-experiencing it.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Interesting. I get that feeling sometimes. It just feels that the event is replaying. Wonder why it happens?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I think it's your mind lapsing somehow.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
How do you know so much about this French phrase?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I thought it was common. I hear it a lot in popular culture - movies music etc. Jay Z has a song called Deja Vu, so does Beyonce. So I looked it up one time. It's one of those phrases that was carried over exactly to english like "etcetera" "vice versa" "savior faire" and so on. I like cool word origin facts.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
yeah... that's pretty insightful. Never thought of etcetera that way before.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
My favourite word origins are gymnasium and jazz.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
wdym by word origins here?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
First usage and original meaning. Gymnasium meant place of nakedness and had very little to do with working out. Jazz comes from jism which means semen and was originally sporadic sex music now it's elitist, high art.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Very interesting. I learned a lot in this conversation today 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
You got any cool facts?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
My friend used to tell me this and found it funny - Mosquitos have 47 teeths<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
That was quite a laughter!!!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Tell me a joke!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Google for that:)<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hey, how are you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Pretty good. I just drank this new hint water. so good<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
ohh, what kind of "hint" did it have?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
watermelon<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
nice, I love watermelon. But, I prefer normal water over flavored one. Flavored water has too synthetic flavor<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I see. Yeah some are pretty strange<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Talking about strange flavors, what is the weirdest tasting thing you have tried?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
lol I tried this tangerine walnut icecream that was super weird<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
haha, I work close to a cafe which once prepared a paprika icecream<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
that sounds pretty tasty actually<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
It depends on who makes it. The cafe close to me messed it up really bad<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
do you want to get some of that icecream together some time. show me a good place<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
As far as my experience with that ice-cream type goes, all I know are bad places<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
lol<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
But I do know some gelato places which are amazing! You should try out those<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hi there. When did you first realize you wanted to be a pastry chef?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Who said I want to be a pastry chef?... haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Darn it! I hoped I’d guess right. What do you actually do for work?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm actually a cake chef, so not far off! Creepy how good that guess was.... Are you psychic?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I had a strong intuitive feeling connected to pastries when we started chatting, but that might have been because I’m hungry.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
haha you're too funny! Perhaps instead of mind-reading powers, you have the ability to feel the auras of foods that have come and gone...<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hahah love it. Do you have a specialty or favourite type of cake?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Chocolate cake + vanilla icing is the all time best! And I have the authority to say that! How about you? Have a favorite?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Ok this is a bit shameful to admit, but I love a classic carrot cake.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
No shame in that! Best part is you can claim you are eating vegetables as you enjoy it! What do you do for work?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I’m a professional dancer.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Woah! Very cool! What style of dance?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I trained in contemporary and jazz, so I can pick up work in commercials and film clips in between stage shows. So it ends up being all sorts of styles.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Oh wow! Sounds like a very dynamic kind of work which is nice. I make a lot of the same cakes, day in day out.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yes, it's different every week, and I love that. Are you ever tempted to try crazy new cakes just to see what would happen?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>

<start_of_turn>user
Oh cool! I've always wanted to attend the Olympics As a viewer of course I watch a lot of Olympic figure skating on Youtube<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yeah it's pretty cool. do you ice skate yourself?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Barely I don't think I can, in conscience, call it that I kind of just pull myself along the sides<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
haha same. It's pretty scary when I run out of things to hold<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Are you good at <REDACTED_TERM>?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model

<start_of_turn>user
I am just enjoying a cigar at the moment. How about yourself?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
oh wow, Cuban cigar? I've never smoke before<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
This one is actually from Peru, which is more my taste. Smoking isn't very healthy, but it's actually quite relaxing, which in a way is good for your health. haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
you made me wanna try it but I doubt about the health part haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
haha "You only live once" as they say!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yea I wish we can live more<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
haha, that is not what I was getting at, but yes that would be nice. Do you believe in reincarnation?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yea but then you will forget things. I hope Neural Link work out<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Do you think Neural Link will allow you to live after death? I thought it was just a brain-computer interface.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
as long as you can dump your brain and resume from there<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Ahh I see. That is a much harder task, no?<end_of_turn>

yea you can first dump your brain and wait until technology advances to wake up 🙂 don't you believe?<end_of_turn>

I traveled a lot the last few months so I'm currently making up for it!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I see. Where did you go?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Mozambique! You ever been?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I have not. I have only been to Uganda in Africa.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
What did you do in Uganda? Travelling to Uganda is an extreme sport depending on where you go.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I was working on a volunteer project to build a school and I traveled around a bit by myself after. It was more than 10 years ago, so it must have changed a lot.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Was the project through a church group?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
No, it was using a non-profit organization. They do these kinds of volunteer projects all over the world.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh nice. What is it called? I've always meant to volunteer through one but I haven't had it in my radar yet.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
It was called IJGD. It's a German organization, but they have local partners all over the world. I was living in Germany at the time.<end_of_turn>

You lived in Germany? I almost went to college there and decided to come to America instead.<end_of_turn>

Yes, I grew up in Germany.<end_of_turn>

I'm doing great. what are you up to?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I was just reading a book actually How about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
oh, I'm enjoying a sip of coffee, looking over the ocean. what book are you reading?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I'm reading Why We Sleep It's a book by a sleep scientist about the benefits of sleeping/cons of not sleeping enough I'm trying to scare myself into sleeping more haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
that seems like a good book. does it have good tips on how to sleep better?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I think so! I haven't finished it yet though Understanding sleep better has been helping me value it more and I've been sleeping a lot earlier Have you read any good books recently?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I read lots of papers, but do poorly on books 😞 a recent book that I like is Zero to One by Peter Thiel<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
What's the book about?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
it's about startups, lots of useful principles and philosophies for innovation, like being a contrarian<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Cool! Are you thinking about starting a startup?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I might in the future. the philosophy in the book also help for other things as well, e.g., in research, you might also want to be contrarian<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I see; seems like an interesting read! 🙂<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
yup!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hi! How are you doing today?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm doing great how are you??<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I'm doing good. Just having some morning tea<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
are you a tea person or do you like coffee too?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I'm really a hot chocolate person. I don't drink coffee and I only drink tea when I'm trying to be healthy and want something warm to drink. What about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I love hot chocolate. Have you ever had european style hot chocolate? It's kind of like drinking melted chocolate bars haha<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I recently tried it for the first time and you're right - it had a wonderful melted chocolate bar taste! I tried it up in a place in San Francisco and they had delicious homemade marshmallows too!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
that's great. It's so cold these nights. Right setting for hot coco. Do you have anything you enjoy doing during cold times?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Traveling to warm places haha. When it's cold, you appreciate the warm climate more 🙂 If I am not traveling, then I prefer there to be snow on the ground so I can go skiing or tubing down the mountain. What about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I tuck in blankets and read a book lol. I have never done tubing, but I seen some people do it. Is it worth it if you already ski?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Skiing involves a lot of muscle - especially in the legs so it is a workout. Tubing, you just sit and enjoy the ride down. Also with tubing, you can chain with your friends and go down together whereas with skiing, you're trying to not run into your friends.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
hahaha that's a great way to put it<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
You should definitely try tubing the next time you head towards the mountains during the winter!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Yeah. I'll try to get a group together. ttyl!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
See ya!<end_of_turn>

Hi!<end_of_turn>

Hello!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
There is sports tournament (badminton + tennis + basketball) organized by google next week. Would you like to volunteer for these events?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
what does a volunteer do?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Volunteers have to book the place before the event, send out details of the event to participants, handle some logistics and ensure everything goes smoothly. It will be fun!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
That sounds fun, I hope I get to participate as well<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Great! Do you have any preference for any of these events?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I think badminton would be fun to help out with I used to play it with my siblings<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Cool! I will add you for the event. I think its best to start discussing the format of the event. There are a couple of other volunteers for badminton, i can connect you with them.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Ah, I forgot to ask, has there been a date picked?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Its next saturday. Actually Depending on how long we get the place reserved, it may slip to sunday as well.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
That's coming up soon!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
True! The volunteers have already sent out some emails and collected some funds. Now, we mainly need help with the logistics and organizing the event.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Phew, yes I can help with that<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Perfect! We have a meeting today at 4.30 pm. Is it fine if i add you to it?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yes happy to help<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Hello there!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
How has your morning been thus far?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Its alright. Went grocery shopping and got to stroll around in the rain. How about you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Today is a work day! How did you have time for that? I'm going through a lot right now.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh, you mean going through a lot of work? I usually take Wednesdays off because I work the weekends!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
WHAT? Why would you do that? Take the least interesting day of the week off and work on the most interesting?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I actually don't have a choice. I'm an acupuncturist and all my clients want to be treated on the weekend!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Wow. The game is brutal like that. I've always been sceptical of acupuncture. Like...does it even work? Why? How? Where is the literature?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I went to school for it and so I find the literature quite convincing. I've also seen its benefits firsthand in my practice. It revolves around the Chinese notion of Qi.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Lol. Bro...I don't buy it unless it has a paper that was presented at a conference and peer reviewed by 6 independent parties. Who wrote the literature? Where did it originate?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Haha. All good questions! I don't have studies on hand at the moment, but perhaps I can send some to you later! What do you do for work?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm a comic.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh wow! What's your best joke?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
It's not appropriate to say here but I assure you it's VERY funny.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Haha fantastic<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Oh hey. How's your day been?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
It's good! Just went to the park to enjoy the sun. You?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
The sun is a bit too bright for more. Maybe I'm on the verge of becoming a vampire.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Haha, beach season is coming! You need to look tan! What did you do indoors all day?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I mostly work. Sometimes I try looking at at beach photos and pretending that I'm actually going to the beach.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
hahahaha, that's pretty funny. Ever thought of bringing your work things to the beach??<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
All the times. My work involves a few types of fish and a few types of nets. I just put the nets on the fish to see how the fish will react. Every time I do that, I think of going to the beach.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hmm I see. It sounds like you work near the water already, no? Are you some kind of fish researcher?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yes that's close. My research focuses on jellyfish and pufferfish. Many of them a poisonous, but if processed correctly, they would make hi-end foods. I try to find the best recipes to bring these fish to the tables.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Woah! This is very interesting! I have honestly never heard of such kind of work. Is it dangerous at all?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yes and no. Because it's obviously dangerous, we all have to wear protective clothes. Thus, accidents almost never happen.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hmmm, yes I have heard that. Apparently most mountain climbers fall not on the most dangerous routes, but on the easier routes, when their guard is down! Sounds like the same psychological phenomenon.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
Yes, it's the same philosophy. You seem to know a lot about mountain climbing. Do you climb a lot?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I'm pretty amateur! I like to climb at indoor climbing gyms and have never gone outside on dangerous routes actually. Ever tried it yourself?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I climb very occasionally. My fingertips are not strong enough so I never make too much progress.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Hi!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
hi, what's up!<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Everything is good. There's so much to be thankful for - especially coming out of Thanksgiving holidays. How are you?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model

<start_of_turn>user
Do you have interesting plans?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model

<start_of_turn>user
Nice! What for? It's a really beautiful place. Really cold this time of year though.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
ah a mix of both conference and sight-seeing 🙂 anything beautiful sight-seeing places or good food I should try?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Cool. Which conference? I saw on Twitter the other day, some people saying they were denied visas for some conference in Canada. Perhaps it's the same one. I really liked this place called Kingyo. It has good Japanese food if you're into that.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
yea it's <REDACTED_TERM>, the largest machine learning conference. I'll check out Kingyo, do we need to make reservation in advance?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I don't recall. My friend was hosting me and did all the leg work. Do you know any people in the area?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model

<start_of_turn>model
thats a lot of meat what dish? Why are you consideringt o go vetegarian?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
Cause the environment and humans suck. I'm keeping my bets open for space though in case the environment dies. I mixed up a couple of dishes. It was a buffet style place.<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
What do you think of those meatless burgers then?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I love them!!!! I've had a couple of different kinds. They are all pretty expensive though. Have you tried them?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I really like the impossible burger Which one is your favorite?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
I love it too. But depending on how it's prepared you can taste the peanut butter. But if prepared well I love it. What kind of food would you have eaten if it wasn't rainy?<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model
I didn't know that it had peanut butter in it<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>user
