Max CP#4

CP # 4 April 17th
I met Jaime after observing Angel’s class, and after CIES one day we walked around to the Tennessee Strip and smoked some cigarettes as he waited for his wife to get off work. I thought he was an interesting person, because he was older and yet still dedicated to learning English with the rest of the CIES students. Jaime is from Spain, and moved here with his wife in the last couple years. The one thing I noticed about him through  Angel’s class was a true passion for getting the right answers, and was very excited to be there. I mentioned this to him, and he laughed. He thought that was because he had paid his own money to be here, as opposed to most of the other students, whom he claimed their parents paid for their classes at CIES. He mentioned that he wanted to get a job in Tallahassee when he graduated CIES, which I think was actually the following day. His wife worked as a Research Assistant within the College of Medicine and as such, he wanted to get a job at FSU or at least in Tallahassee to stay around her. He seemed like a really good dude and I was glad I got to spend some time with him.
