Camryn CP# 1

Today was the first time that Marcia was free to chat over the phone. For the first few minutes, we got to get to know each other and I learned that Marcia is preparing to apply for a Master's program either in Texas, Ohio, or Pennsylvania. Marcia and I also talked about our majors and families as well as the stressful process we both have going through to apply to grad school. Working on our personal statements and studying for the necessary exams. Additionally, we spoke extensively about the coronavirus and how it has changed so much of our daily lives. She had not left the house for the last 4 months out of caution of getting sick. We are both really excited for classes in the fall though as life will begin to return to a more normal schedule. Talking to Marcia was really interesting as her family is from Korea, but she grew up in Brazil so she knows about 4 different languages. At the end of our chat, we made plans to catch up tomorrow and she invited me to attend a karaoke event that is being hosted on Zoom tomorrow.
