IN: Had a tiff with my gf last friday over my smses w S. She was upset that S smsed me about seemingly minor things like her going overseas etc ... I got quite irritated until I refused to answer her phonecalls after that . I think that was the first time in a few years that I had been angry at her , and she knew it , and I think we managed to talk and discuss things through more logically after that .
Why did the narrator talk to their girlfriend today ?

OUT: To resolve a fight .

IN: She was hilarious and we took tons of pictures and just had a good time . It was really fun .... and by then , Julie did n't even care anymore if I got drunk . In fact , she kept URGING me to take a drink , then pouring one for herself ... which I would take away from her , anyway . I did , after much persuasion , have a shot of Bacardi Limon ... or maybe it was half a shot .
Why did the speaker end up taking shots ?

OUT: They want to give in to Julie 's persuasion .

IN: I was really worried this morning about things . I received an email from the woman I interviewed with on Monday . She said that she just learned of my interview today but that both Father 's would be there and Father Eric wanted to hear me play something so to bring music along . That was fine ; I had planned on bringing a few pieces anyways .
what might the narrator be trying to get ?

OUT:
A position in the Church
