Nic Reagan CP #4

     Andres and I met today at Starbucks for our second Conversation Partner meeting from 12-12:50. I found out that he has been studying about Big Data in his listening class, which I thought was cool. We discussed the role of anti-monopoly laws in the US and the recent Supreme Court decision against Apple. Although Andres is highly fluent in English, he's not too talkative, so I brought along a magazine about Tallahassee events in order to encourage a conversation. We talked about our different musical preferences, and I discovered he enjoys US country music (I don't). We also discussed the food industry in the US and how corporations have profited- especially ones like Starbucks and McDonalds. Andres has watched several documentaries about food on Netflix, so he is well-versed in industry details. As you can see, we had a wide-ranging and at-times-in-depth discussion!
