Chris H. CP3

I met Marcel in the TCC library when he was done with class and once again began talking about the events of Spring Break. He told me that his plans had fallen through and that he had remained in Tallahassee, which was not a terrible thing as he was now dating a girl in his school. I asked him how she was affecting his language ability, and he laughed and said that he has never had a better reason to talk. He told me that he was doing well in his classes, but was homesick nonetheless, and was looking forward to returning to Europe the following month to see his family and attend his sister’s wedding. We conversed further on his lady friend and how he had met her (in a class) and what he liked most about her (her southern accent and blond hair!). Marcel has a natural sense of humor and likeability around him, and I find that the more I’ve met with him, the more his willingness to speak his mind, despite vocabulary obstacles, has increased. I told him a little about my girlfriend, and asked him whether he would like to have a double date, to which he agreed. He insisted he was obligated to leave a little early because his roommate didn’t have the apartment key, but that he would call me later in the week to schedule the date.
