TRANSCRIPT
You know what time it is? It’s story time. Hey, I said it’s story time. Alright, so remember during the lesson I taught you all the expression. Indy and everybody, and I promised you that during story time. I would tell you about one of my friends and how Indy and everybody relates to her.
So when I was in South Korea, this was during my last two years in South Korea, maybe last two or three years in South Korea, one of my closest friends from college, she also came to Korea and she was an English teacher, a missionary English teacher. So. My friend, myself and three, actually three other friends, and then one of their boyfriends.
So it were, there were two couples and then my best friend and I, so we all decided to go on a vacation together. On vacation together. We wanted to, excuse me, I get some water. We wanted to rent an rv. An rv. So an RV is kind of like a mobile home, uh, like a home on wheels. It’s a vehicle that has. A bathroom, a shower, a kitchen, everything inside bedrooms and everything.
So we all decided to go to the beach, and the beach actually had mobile homes right at the beach. So we were so excited, right? We’ve all been working hard and we were ready to go on this trip. So we all traveled the three hours by train to get to the beach. We got there, we were planning to be there for about four days, three nights and four days.
So we got to the mobile home. Now you have six adults, right in this small area. We were all very close, so we weren’t worried about having any, you know, arguments or anything. We were all very close. So, and my best friend and I have been friends since college, so no one was worried. So my, one of the couples, they actually were married, so we said, Hey, you guys can have a large room.
You guys are married. The other couple, they were just dating. So they bunked in the same room with myself and my best friend with me and my best friend. So everything was going well. We were having a good time. The food was good. My best friend likes to cook. I like to cook. My other friend likes to cook, so it was great.
We’d watch movies together and it was really a time for us all to bond. We had a wonderful time. One night, uh, late at night, uh, we decided to go out on the beach and we had fireworks. I mean, it was great. Even now thinking about it, I’m realizing how much fun we had. So on the day, I think the day before we left, we had to leave.
The next morning we decided, hey, let’s just chill on the beach this afternoon for like two or three hours. Just chill, relax, talk, have some snacks. All of a said. Okay, that’s cool. But my best friend from college. She is a very outgoing person. She’s a very, she’s a, the epitome of an extrovert. If you look in the dictionary, you’ll see her picture.
She’s really an extrovert. She loves people like you all would love her. So we get to the beach, you know, just about, maybe about a two minute walk from our mobile home and we’re setting out our blankets and everything. And my, uh, best friend then she, she then asked one our other friend’s boyfriend, she said.
Don’t you wanna go do something? And he was like, what do you mean? And she asked us, guys, don’t you wanna do something? And we said, well, we are doing something. We’re gonna sit on the beach and just talk and bond and have a good time. She said, no, but I, I don’t wanna just sit on the beach like we’re on vacation, I wanna do something.
So we said, Hey, um, we just wanna sit on the beach. Now. I know her very well and I knew what she was asking. She did not just wanna sit on the beach because she was going to be bored. So she said, I’m gone. And I said, okay. And my other friends looked at me, they said, TIFF, I said, she’s fine, she’s fine. She just wants to go explore.
So we sat on the beach for like two or three hours and she was gone for that entire time. So right when we were about to go back to the mobile home, we see her walking toward us and she has this big smile on her face and she said, oh my goodness guys. I went over there, I went around the beach and down there and there were so many people and I was just hanging out with them and we were talking laughing and joking, and apparently they were having some party outside, just a beach party.
And I could tell by the look on her face that she had the best time of her life. So my other friend looked at me and said, TIFF. She really had the best time of her life. I said, listen, she can talk to any and everybody. So I know that she was not shy and that she had an awesome time. She said, well, you’re right, TIFF.
She had never, my friend had never seen my other friend in that situation where she just wanted to go and be around people. So we had a great time. It was interesting when she left us, when we were all bonding. But I said, listen, this is the beauty of different personalities. Some people just like to stay with the group and some people like to be within me and everybody.
So maybe that’s what you are. Like, maybe that’s your personality. You just wanna explore and meet new people. That’s cool. Or maybe you’re like us, you just wanna relax. Spend time with your close friends. Both are a, okay. Alright guys, I hope you enjoyed this story. Thank you again for watching this lesson.
