Oxnard Student

Jose Munoz, the first person I interviewed was one of my classmates.  Jose was born in Oxnard and is 19 years old.  The idea of expanding his knowledge and getting a career motivated him to become a full time student.  Because of his heavy homework load, he finds time to hang out with his family on the weekend.  When asked what his motto for succeeding in school was, Jose responded, “Don’t do drugs.”  Hearing this from a teenager is unique.  It is hard to find a teenager in 2011 that is drug free.  Jose went into college expecting strict professors, but was surprised when all of his teachers were “chill”.  He was also surprised that the students were friendly and very diverse.  In five to ten years Jose sees himself having a steady job.  He is still shakey on the idea of getting married and starting a family. Jose described himself in three words, “Odd, smart, and happy.”
