W: Steven, shall we go shopping tomorrow?
M: Hum...Why not go shopping the day after tomorrow? Tomorrow is Saturday. I hate all the  
   hustle and bustle of Saturday shopping.
W: But it is the same with Sunday. If you don’t mind, that’s OK.
M: Hum...Maybe it will be better. The most important thing is that I can have a day to get   
   relaxed after a week’s work.
W: I see. Let’s fix it the day after tomorrow.
M: By the way, what kind of stores do we need to go to?
W: I want to buy some clothes in a clothing store. When we are going back, go to the butcher’s
   to buy some chicken. What’s more, I guess we’ll pick some comic books for Peter, for next  
   Friday is his birthday.
M: Ok. Let’s also go to the jewelry store to buy a diamond necklace. I want to buy one for you
   as your birthday present.
W: Well, forget about it. Diamond things are not my cup of coffee. Thank you, anyway. I’d
   prefer a dinner cooked by you. You were such a good chef and all the beautiful memories.
M: Sure, that’s a deal!

M: You look tired. What on earth have you been doing?
W: Oh, I’ve been such a fool! You just wouldn’t believe what I have done.
M: I would. Come on.
W: I’ve been to London. I thought I’d be very sensible, so I drove down to the underground in
the suburbs of London. But when I got back out of London, I couldn’t find my car. So I rang
the police and told him what had happened.
M: Did he help you find your car?
W: Yes. He took me back into the underground station and out the other side into the other car park…and there was my car. Because there are two exits, you see, so I walked out of an exit, not knowing there were two and it was the other one.
M: And was he angry?
W: Yeah, and I was so sorry that I apologized all the time.
M: Sounds like a terrible trip!

You may think Twitter, a universally popular social media platform, is used for just a small talk. No one can really convey a message in just 140 characters. But according to researchers, our Twitter messages provide a valuable insight towards our diet and our health. 
Coffee, beer and pizza were the most talked about products on the social media platform. Starbucks also featured highly, followed by alcohol, which increases the risk of some types of cancer. 
Researchers from the University of Utah assessed around 80 million Twitter messages sent between mid-2014 and mid-2015 only to find 4 million, which had mentioned food or drink. 
Besides, researchers found messages from poor areas were less likely to mention healthy foods while people living in developed areas were more likely to talk about fast food. 
The study also found the areas which talked more about walking, dancing and running had fewer deaths and lower rates of being overweight.
