Transcript:
Julia Hernandez: Tell me about your opinions about 2020 so far.
Angela Hernandez: My opinion is that 2020 hasn’t been the best year so far.
JH: Mkay umm why?
AH: It hasn’t been the best year because a lot of bad things are happening like police brutally.
JH: Mhm.
AH: Uh something else that has been happening is COVID-19 we haven’t been able to go outside and do most-.. a lot of things in our life.
JH: How has COVID-19 affected you so far?
AH: Um it’s affected me because I would like to go outside and play around.
JH: Mhm-.
AH: Pero I can’t do this.
JH: Um how has it affected you in school?
AH: We have to do online classes now um I would prefer in person because in online classes you don’t know there’s some technical difficulties.
JH: Wait- am sorry you would rather be in school in person than in distance learning?
AH: If it was safe, I would want to be in person.
JH: Any reasons or-
AH: Because…. I believe that being in person is more likely for us to learn cause we’re actually present and the teachers know we’re present.
JH: Yeah, that’s an interesting point. What is something good that happened this year since you listed bad things? [small laugh]
AH: Something good that happened is uhh……OH we got a calico cat around I think May.
JH: Describe our cat.
AH: Well her name is Bella she is cute and nice and sometimes can be really funny.
JH: Oh yeah! [laugh] I remember that time when she like did a flip trying to grab the toy.
AH: Yeah [laugh] I remember when our dad asked us if we wanted a cat and we were like yeah sure why not but we were not expecting for him to bring it the next day [Laughs] we were like WHAT it was crazy [small laugh].
JH: Yeah, I was not expecting that [Laugh].
AH: Yeah, but I was still really happy since this is kinda our first pet we actually needed to take care of.
JH: Umm how would you like to be remembered?
AH: Uhh I would like to be remembered as a loyal person.
JH: Why?
AH: Because I think that am a loyal person and I want people to know that I was a good person.
[Helicopter passes by]
JH: Wow.
AH: [laugh]
JH: [laugh] Do you remember about our after school program back in elementary?
AH: Yeah I ditched my own class to be in yours but it was okay since they didn’t get mad at me for some reason.
JH: Why didn’t they get mad at you?
AH: I really don’t know.
[long pause]
JH: Anyways I noticed after I started getting into art more on drawing you began to draw too.
AH: Yeah It just looked really cool and I wanted to do that so…. Yeah.
JH: Do you think your art is improving?
AH: Yeah I do because now since I seen you do sketches I thought that I should do that too to do better on my drawings.
[long pause]
JH: Uhh I seen you have been focusing on coloring too-.
AH: Oh yeah.
JH: Am not.
[pause]
AH: [laugh]
JH: [Laugh] I am too lazy to color everything I think that coloring it might look pretty but it’s a lot of work.
AH: Yeah I guess.
JH: I’ll try to do it in the future but not right now am too busy.
AH: [laugh]
JH: Whenever I start coloring I want it to look cool like how they look in anime.
AH: Oh yeah that will look really cool.
JH: Yeah but it is going to take a while before I can make my coloring look like that.
AH: You just have to keep trying.
JH: Yeah..
AH: Mhm.
JH: Anyways is there anything you would like to say right now?
AH: Uhhh………I don’t really have anything else to say right now.
JH: Okay then thank you for being here and having this conversation.

I really liked how everything was detailed. I also liked how you motivated your sister by telling her that someday she will be able to draw like she would like. I think that meant a lot to her.

This interview summarizes what most people think about 2020, but it also can come with new things that could make 2020 better and put COVID-19 behind us. It also is good to hear what other people think about 2020.
