B: “How’s that working out – being the only teen?  How’s the food?”

A: “food is great.  i have to eat a lot more since i’m doing 4 hours of aikido.  kinda tweaked my sprained ankle today in the last class; sitting out of afternoon zazen.  it’s alright, nobody is super talkative and we all just sort of sit and chill on our own, so there isn’t  a lot of pressure on me.”

B: “Glad the food is good.  So you’re not sitting zazen?  Other women besides Emily?  The retreat is for reflection and camaraderie. ”

A: “I’m gonna sit zazen in the morning.  I didn’t this afternoon bcuz of ankle and cough.  there are 3 other women besides me n emily”
