LnR 024 Whaddaya wanna do? (Replay)

OK, I have to admit it . . . I talked too much in this one! :-)

Two university friends are talking about their summer plans:

A: Hey, whatcha gonna do this summer? [This is how it's pronounced. Remember, NEVER EVER write this in an essay for your English teacher or an email to your client or customer! We don't write this way, but we speak this way. I'm writing it here so you see how we say these words.]

B: Well, I failed calculus, so I have to take it again during summer school. That's six weeks. Then I have the rest of the summer off.

A: I've got a job at a summer camp, but it ends three weeks before school starts.

B: So we  both have three weeks to play with at the end of the summer.

B: I wanna go to Russia! I'm a math major and Russia has some great mathematicians.

A: Yeah? Well, I'm a business major who loves wine and good food. I wanna go to France!

B: Sounds good, but we both know we don't have enough money to go to Europe this summer.

A: Yeah, but it's nice to dream. So, whaddaya wanna do instead?

B: Yeah, you're right. I think I'll just kick around the house, take my little brother to the local pool, and start learning Russian online.

A: And I'll try to find another part-time job and see if I can sign up for a beginning French class at school.

B: Yeah, and maybe we can drive over to my aunt and uncle's house and spend a weekend on the beach. It's only four hours away.

A: That sounds like a plan!
