Today is the second class of our February four class set. We will begin class with our trivia, there have been some modifications. 

                        The phrase of the week is, "speaks volumes." We use this phrase to show how well something describes another. For example, "John has stuck to his diet for eight months and it speaks volumes about his dedication and commitment to a healthy lifestyle."

                         Today's reading is about friendship and does include some profanity. The listening material is about overconfidence.  Please listen for and create examples for the vocabulary words.
