Man On The Street
This Week’s Question:
Did you enjoy seeing your family during the holidays?
Name: Kristian Saldivar
Major: Education
“Yes I did. Whenever I go home, I just feel comfortable and can rest and not worry about anything. I get to see family that I don’t see very often. We usually all gather at my aunt’s house and we have lunch together. My family isn’t the type to start conflict or arguments. We just enjoy each other’s company.”
Name: Linda Williams
Major: Education
“Yes, I enjoyed it a lot. It’s comfortable, I get a lot of stability and I get to rest quite a bit. We all make food together and have a roasting session at each other’s expense, to an extent. It’s just fun being able to make food together. Our family isn’t one to argue, so it was fun the whole time.”
Name: Noah Berry
Major: Mechanical Engineering
“Yeah, it was nice to see family that I don’t normally see very often and just catch up and hang out with them. We usually go to my uncle’s house in Rockport. We gather the whole family and just have a big turkey and ham dinner. The only thing my family argues about is the football game.”
Name: Heidi Saenz
Major: Education
“I really did. Even though I only live 45 minutes away in Corpus, it was nice because my family has a tradition of eating lunch, taking a nap and then eating dinner, so that was really nice. This year my grandmother came up with this cool idea for everyone to write what they’re thankful for on little paper maple leaf flowers. Like all families, we have arguments, but it was nice to forget that. It was also nice that my brothers got off Fortnite for a few hours.”
