Dialog 1 at the end of the day [ 結局 ]

Angela:I'm sorry you didn't win the badminton championship this year. You played really well though!
Yukio:Yeah, but I've got to practice harder and play much better next time.
Angela:I still think you're the best.
Yukio:Thanks, but at the end of the day, if I don't win first place, I'm not the best.

Dialog 2 Variety is the spice of life [ 変化は人生のスパイス ]

Angela:I'll be leaving for Germany next year. I've got a new job as a translator.
Yukio:Why are you leaving? You said you really like your life here in Japan.
Angela:Hey, variety is the spice of life! I've been in Asia for ten years already. After Germany, I want to try living in South America somewhere.
Yukio:Sounds exciting! Good luck with that.
