Conversation Partner #3

On March 18, 2015, I met with Tracy and her sister outside Barnes & Noble on the patio. She was extremely welcoming and immediately asked about my Spring Break. I noticed her vocabulary and confidence in speaking English had greatly improved since I last saw her.  Tracy and her sister had mentioned they would try Potbelly’s or somewhere else, next time they saw me – which they did.  They seemed content with the food, but didn’t seem amazed. They started to ask about French Fries and what I thought about them. Then, we got on the topic of McDonald’s and how there’s also a whole bunch in Taiwan.  They had mentioned earlier that they went to Dallas with a train pass given to them by TCU, and got to explore the city. They couldn’t really figure out a way to describe what they did, but they seemed to like it overall. Also, they graciously brought me Taiwanese/maybe Chinese candy from what they got from Dallas. I tried all of them – Berry Pie, Chocolate Pie, and Coffee Slims – which were my favorite. It was very nice of them and generous to think of me and bring me sweets. I plan on letting them know next time I see them how I liked them and what I thought about their type of food.
