My name is Diana Nhan. I work at
Sundale University in the Business
Department office. I’m 38 years old
and married. I like to garden and to
cook. My husband and I don’t go
out a lot, but we have a dinner party
about once a month. Sometimes
we go to the movies. We don’t get
much exercise, so we try to take a
walk every evening.
My name is Lena Panich. I work
at Sundale University in the IT
Department. I’m 32 years old and
married. I don’t have children. I
like to cook, so we don’t go out
to restaurants very often. We like
to go to the movies, though. We
are thinking about joining a gym
because we don’t get enough
exercise.
