Get your hands busy and some tension into your dialogue. Make sure you have salt and pepper shakers, mustard, ketchup and bowl of sugar.. slide the shakers back and forth as your make points. as your dialogue gets quicker spoon too much sugar into your coffee cup....if things get emotional---Well, you've got mustard and ketchup.

Everything you say has to mean something The reason you are gossipping is because you want the other person to do something for you, or to believe something about the person you are gossipping about. Choose something important, for example, if you don't convince your friend, she'll go after the boyfriend and steal him away from you, or you don't want your friend to know what you and your date actually did, so you're making something up, or the date was your friend's boyfriend.
It has to be vital. If it means a lot to you, it won't be boring.

Hi, I am currently majoring in Theatre at my community college, and one thing i can tell you is SOUND OUT CONSTANANTS!! when you say a word e.g. Smile. Give that "s" a really big sound! Speak loudly, make lots of movements (not too much), put a smile on your face, and make sure to soud interesting, your talking about a date so make it sound informative and spicy

Physical actions: Be natural and do things like sip a drink, look at your cellphone and put on lip gloss...don't cross and recross your legs a million times, but move to emphasize points about your date..."He was so hot, but he had such bad breath...(or something such as that)"you would naturally lean forwards, as if confiding a secret...if you are laughing, don't go on forever...I would root myself and not move around much, and work on getting your audience to listen...
Voice: Keep your voice pitch low to start, and pace yourselves, girlfriends don't typically race through conversations...remember to keep pauses

If you're the one talking, the way to "not be boring" is to really CONNECT yourself to the incident(s) you're sharing with your friends. You need to establish a real NEED to share the information with them. If you have that need, then you'll communicate in a manner that is compelling to them; and, by extension, it will be compelling to the audience.
When someone else is talking, LISTEN as actively as you can.
A really good former acting teacher of mine used to say to us: "You want to be INTERESTING on stage? Then be INTERESTED!"
