Dialogue

A: Tenho que levar uma grana pra escola pra comprar uma flor pro meu amigo.
B: Ah, é! Adoro dar flores para todo mundo no Dia dos Namorados.
A: É legal que a escola deixa a gente mandar flores pras pessoas que a gente gosta.
B: Faz a gente se sentir tão especial.
A: A melhor parte é escrever o bilhetinho que vai com a flor. Sempre escrevo uma piada interna.
B: Aposto que seus amigos adoram.
A: Também é legal que o dinheiro arrecadado vai para uma boa causa. Na minha escola, a Honor Society* doa o lucro.
B: Na minha escola o dinheiro vai para o programa de teatro. Financia os cenários e os figurinos novos.
A: Enfim, cadê a mamãe? Eu preciso pegar o dinheiro.
B: Vou pegar também. Tô doida para comemorar com meus amigos.


A: I need to bring some money to school so I can buy a flower for my friend.

A: It’s cool that the school makes it possible to deliver flowers to people we like.
B: It makes me and my friends feel so special.
A: The best part is writing the note that comes with the flower. I always write an inside joke.

A: Plus, the money goes to a good cause. In my school, the Honor Society donates it.
B: In my school it goes to the theater program. They get to buy new sets and costumes with it!
