Akira - CP #1

Nasser and I had a great time for our first conversation partner session. Our plan was to meet at a Starbucks on Tennessee St., but we both forgot that there were two Starbucks's on that street. I ended up going to the one near campus, and he ended up going to the one near Chik-fil-a. When we finally met up, we had a good laugh about it. Nasser and I had met once previously during one of my observation sessions, so I was used to his English fluency. The most memorable moment from the session was the story of how Nasser arrived at the United States. The whole trip from Kuwait to the United States takes 24 hours. He did not speak a word of English, and did not end up eating anything the entire trip. He also nearly missed his flight when he was in Chicago. It was a really funny story, and I'm looking forward to the next conversation session.
