But yes, I will remember to bring something interesting to ask or talk about to the table. Thank you. :]
Specific anecdotes are good. So, if someone says "what did you do over the summer?", instead of "went on vacation with my family" you could be like "my family went to new york to see some shows and visit museums. I really loved The Book of Mormon, and the art at the Met really impressed me".
