I'd focus more on relating to the themes behind the subject matter when conversing especially if the subject matter doesn't resonate with you. e.g.
"law internship in summer" = future, goals
"Professor Wilkes won't release our grades" = adversity, trouble, challenge
"Can you believe that Suzy and Bob are dating now?" = love, romance, passion |
I'm intrigued by this idea. Could you give me some concrete examples on what I could've said here to elicit these themes?
