Honestly, I did not know about this project until our last class when the professor talked about extensions and mercy for delayed assignments. When I looked at the syllabus, I realized that it was due this past Monday. As soon as I saw the syllabus, I started to think where would be the best place to engage a conversation with random people with different background and coming from different places. I thought it would be hard to go to a shopping mall or a restaurant because people are always walking and rushing. I believe that stopping someone while they walk, eat or shop would make this interviews a little be harder. Also, I did not want to have a type of survey and go asking people random question, but I want something natural and not awkward. Therefore, as it is suggested in the syllabus, I went to Disneyland tonight. I thought that Disneyland would be a perfect place because I would be able to engage a long conversation with people who are standing in the line with me. The lines at Disneyland usually take between 10- 20 minutes, enough to initiate and to embrace a solid conversation. They would feel weird of having a guy talking with them since staying in the line is boring. People are willing to waste time by talking and engaging with people around you. Also, I knew I could start preaching the Gospel immediately or even never because I must respect them first. So I went to Disneyland with a friend of mine. Acting in group always helps and this interviews would be much easier with the help of someone else. Who goes to Disneyland by themselves and start to talk with you in the line? People would think of me as a stranger and awkward person.
I do not usually start a conversation with random people. First, I do not speak a perfect English. Sometimes, I feel that people reject me because I am a foreign. People do not really pay much attention to what I have to say because they might think that
