In context

When a friend asks, 'Are you up for it?', I usually jump at the chance. I'm definitely up for most things, especially anything outdoors. I'll say, 'Count me in — what did you have in mind?' to show I'm keen and to get the details. Being the person who says yes makes you the person who gets invited. Life's more fun when you're up for it. What are you up for this weekend?

  1. Drew invites you to an outing. Say you're up for it and ask details.
