Every day I leave my house at seven. I drive my car to the office, and there I work hard. When I
come home, I do the household chores. Thank heavens for electrical appliances! I convince my
children and my husband to help, and we all share the work. My husband vacuums the floor. I
put the clothes in the washing machine and later my daughter Mati dries them in the dryer
and puts the clothes in the closets. I assign the household chores. Then I propose a plan for
dinner. My son Rob comes into the kitchen and listens to my instructions. The microwave oven
is Rob’s favorite appliance and he prepares quick meals. After dinner, Rob and Mati load the
dishwasher. Now I deserve a break, and I watch my favorite TV programs!

At “Casa Marcelo” I greet the customers. I show them the menu. I always suggest the special
of the day. While I work, I dream a lot. My dream? This is my dream: I am a movie star. Why
not? I am 5T0" and I am gooddooking. I confess I am a bit shy. I bite my nails when I have an
audition.. ut I want to be a famous movie star. In my dreams, my agent finds the perfect role in
an action movie. In one of the scenes, I find many clues, and I follow three men. They spy for
the enemy, and I fight hard to stop their crimes. The three men die in an ambush inside a
tunnel. At the movie houses, the audiences shake in their seats and scream. The phone rings. ...
I wake up from my dream. A customer wants to come here tonight at eight, and he asks for a
table near a window. They all want a table near a window! I go back to my dream. I prefer to
go back to my dream and be a spy.

Arturo’s children think he is the ideal candidate to be the governor of his state. Arturo is nice
and very firm in his decisions. He and his family are from the United States, and his ancestors
are from Europe. He is very honest but he is brutally frank. That’s why he is not very popular
in some cities. His children are not like Arturo. They are a bit hypocritical and are volunteers
in their father’s campaign office. They are very happy because they believe their father is the
future governor of the state. They are preparing to celebrate the inauguration of their father’s
mandate. That event is not until next year. For well-educated people, they are very naive. It is
important that they understand reality. They must be prepared for defeat.
