Pair work: students interview a classmate and ask questions about personal life, interests and dreams. Follow the example:
My friend G
I talked to my friend Gerson about life and other things and I got to know him better:
Lucas: Where and when were you born?
Gerson: I was born in Santiago in 1985.
L: Where do you live?
G: I live in Santiago Centro in a small apartment but I want to move because I don't like my neighborhood. It's too far from my job.
L: What do yo do for a living? What's your job?
G: I'm a risk preventionist. I work for a company in San Bernardo, so I have to wake up very early to be there everyday at 8 am. I need another apartment or a car.
L: Do you like your job?
G: Mmm, yeah, I like it, but I would like to do something else.
L: Like what?
G: I really like music, listening to music, playing music, etc. I play in bands and I'd really love to make a living playing music. I don't know. It's difficult to make money playing music here, but that truly makes me happy. Maybe I could have a part time job and spend more time making music with my friends.
L: How often do you practice?
G: We get together twice a week on weekdays and on Saturdays. We play, talk, drink something maybe, probably we eat something and then play again. Spending time with my friends makes my day after a long day of work. Being in a band with my friends has helped me to go through difficult times and I enjoy meeting them. It's fun and we make great music.
L: That's good. Who is in that band with you?
G: Well, my friend Luis plays the drums and the guitarrist is a friend of mine from highschool. His name is Lucas, you fool!
L: Oh, that's right. Hahahaha!
Thank you for your time, bro. Take care.
G: Thanks to you, man. Cheers!!

It's cool that your friend take a part of his life for doing what he really loves and don't give it up just for having a job. I have to say it, cool picture, the mirror effect is super fun.
