interview with a classmate.

     I interviewed a guy by the name of Matthew King. He was born and raised here in sunny California. He has had a pretty normal life with nothing really out of the ordinary. As for now he is looking for work,and comes to school about two hours a day. One of the things he likes about Oxnard College is that it is pretty close to his house,and he doesn't have to waste much gas. The main thing that motivates him to go to college is the fact that not many people in his family have gone to college, and he wants to be one of the first to do so. His "motto" for school would be to "just get threw it". In ten years he wants to have a place of his own, a good job, and he also wants all his goals to be accomplished. His culture has always put college as the first step to getting your life organized, and together. I guess you could say that he is taking that first step.

  2. I like Matthew's motto. If we just push through the tough times..and school can be tough for some of us...you will get through it and be better off.
