Spanish Text<\/h2>\n
\nAlba: Un poco cansada.
\nToby: \u00bfY eso?
\nAlba: Estuve despierta hasta las dos de la ma\u00f1ana viendo la televisi\u00f3n anoche.
\nToby: \u00a1\u00bfTe acostaste a las dos de la ma\u00f1ana?! \u00a1\u00bfY empezaste a trabajar a las ocho?!
\nAlba: En realidad me acost\u00e9 m\u00e1s cerca de las tres de la ma\u00f1ana.
\nToby: \u00bfQu\u00e9 estabas viendo?
\nAlba: Operaci\u00f3n Triunfo.
\nToby: \u00bfEse concurso de cantar?
\nAlba: \u00a1S\u00ed, me encanta! Es lo que m\u00e1s me gusta de la televisi\u00f3n. \u00a1El problema son todos los anuncios que muestran a altas horas de la noche! Operaci\u00f3n Triunfo durar\u00eda unas dos horas, pero con todos los anuncios, \u00a1dura en total m\u00e1s de tres horas! Es rid\u00edculo.
\nToby: No deber\u00edan echar programas para ni\u00f1os hasta muy tarde. Me imagino que muchos ni\u00f1os tambi\u00e9n est\u00e1n muy cansados hoy en sus colegios.
\nAlba: Bueno, en realidad no es un programa para ni\u00f1os, pero me imagino que muchos j\u00f3venes lo ven, s\u00ed.
\nToby: \u00bfA qu\u00e9 hora te has levantado?
\nAlba: Me he levantado a las 7.30 esta ma\u00f1ana. Es una suerte que viva tan cerca. Aunque no he desayunado. Tengo mucha hambre.
\nToby: Y llegaste tarde esta ma\u00f1ana.
\nAlba: No creo que nadie se haya dado cuenta, \u00bft\u00fa?
\nToby: Estoy bastante seguro de que el jefe lo hizo. Nunca se le escapa nada.
\nAlba: \u00a1Oh no!
\nToby: Probablemente tambi\u00e9n deber\u00edas peinarte un poco.
\nAlba: \u00bfQu\u00e9 le pasa a mi pelo?
\nToby: Bueno, parece un poco descontrolado.
\nAlba: Ya. Pues tampoco tuve tiempo de lavarme los dientes.
\nToby: Mmmhh vale.<\/p>\n

\nAlba: A little tired.
\nToby: Why?
\nAlba: I was up until two in the morning watching TV last night.
\nToby: You went to bed at two in the morning?! And you started work at eight?!
\nAlba: I actually went to bed closer to three in the morning.
\nToby: What were you watching?
\nAlba: Operaci\u00f3n Triunfo.
\nToby: That singing contest?
\nAlba: Yes, I love it! It\u2019s the thing I like most on television. The problem is all the commercials they show late at night! Operaci\u00f3n Triunfo would last about two hours, but with all the commercials, it lasts over three hours in total! It\u2019s ridiculous.
\nToby: They shouldn\u2019t show children\u2019s programs until so late. I imagine that many children are also very tired today in their schools.
\nAlba: Well, it\u2019s not really a children\u2019s show, but I imagine a lot of young people watch it, yes.
\nToby: What time did you get up?
\nAlba: I got up at 7.30 this morning. It\u2019s lucky that I live so close. I haven\u2019t had breakfast though. I am very hungry.
\nToby: And you were late this morning.
\nAlba: I don\u2019t think anyone has noticed, do you?
\nToby: I\u2019m pretty sure the boss did. Nothing ever escapes him.
\nAlba: Oh no!
\nToby: You should probably tidy your hair a bit too.
\nAlba: What\u2019s wrong with my hair?
\nToby: Well, it looks a little messy.
\nAlba: Right. Well, I didn\u2019t have time to brush my teeth, either.
\nToby: Mmmhh okay.<\/p>\n
