VIP Class Notes (Tony)
Vocabulary
Dopamine – a natural chemical in your brain, that is produced during happy moments, or by drugs/food.
eg: People like having a coffee when they meet for the first time. Like an interview or a blind date. They may not realize that the coffee tastes good, but also has an interesting side effect. It releases more dopamine in your brain, so you form a positive connection with that memory, because it’s linked to the dopamine release.
Grammar
I don’t want to date with a coworker
the year after next
year after year (Continue every year)
Can Vs. May – can is actually the wrong word when people ask for permission
eg: Can I go to bathroom?
(Actually you are asking if you are ABLE to go to the bathroom, but of course you are able, you can walk there)
eg: May I go to the bathroom
(This asks for permission to do it)
Dad Joke:

eg: I don’t know, can you?
eg: OMG dad, smh. MAY I go out with my friends tonight?
