00:00 Hello, I'm Isabella White, recording from my room and Today's date is September 27, 2022 and I'm here with my boyfriend Daniel Garcia and we are in Allen, Texas. Can you tell me a few things about yourself, Daniel

00:17 Hello, I'm 18, I go to Collin College and I like skating, playing video games and spending time with my girlfriend.

00:30 All right, Daniel now that we've heard a little bit about you, I want to ask you who someone that has had a big influence on you is.

00:41 My older brother, Abel Garcia has a huge influence in my life. I've always looked up to him. He's a really smart person. He graduated top 5% of his class, I think a class over 1700 people. So I found that very impressive. And I've always wanted to be like him, be able to be as, I guess involved with school as he is. And I just really look up to him.

01:13 That's tiring. What are one of the most important lessons that Abel's taught you?

01:21 Abel? He's taught me a few things. He's always helped me try to be organized. He's always, I guess, been responsible over me trying to help out however he can. But one of the most important things he's taught me is how to let go of people. He's had his run ins with people that he thought were really good people and then over, as time goes on, they're not the best friends or they're not the best people for him and he has to let go of them. And I've also had similar situations and I have the same struggle. I. It's hard for me to let go of people. But he's always helped me try to figure out like who's good for me and what I deserve and what is a good relationship for me and how to figure that out for myself.

02:10 He sounds like a good older brother.

02:12 He is.

02:14 Alright, what do you want to be when you grow up?

02:16 I want to be. I'm majoring in computer science. I want to do something in the field of cybersecurity because it's not exactly what I want to do. It's. I just think it's a job that will pay well and help me, I guess, support the things I love and the things I actually want to do because I don't think the things I generally want to do would be able to pay well. So I think it'd be better to have a career that can help me afford that stuff.

02:48 That's smart. But what do you actually want to do?

02:52 I want to be I. I would want to be a film director. I've. I don't know, since I was a kid. I always liked movies and it was just something I really loved. And I'd always make videos whenever I like during any sport I would do. When I used to play soccer, I'd make little videos of myself playing soccer. Whenever I skated, I make videos of myself skating. So it's just something I've always enjoyed and that's what I would generally want to be.

03:20 Alright, not that you're dying anytime soon, but how would you like to be remembered one day.

03:27 When I pass? I'd like to be remembered nothing more than who I truly am. I don't want to have like fake memories over myself. I don't want people to remember me as something I wasn't. But I guess just playful and not energetic. Just, I guess, a sincere person, a real person.

03:55 Well, I could definitely see that character in you. All right, I have one final question for you. In our time, we have. If there were one thing. I'm sorry is if this was our last conversation, is there anything you'd like to tell me?

04:14 I need to think about that one. But I guess I would say that you're a really cool person and I enjoy spending time with you and you make everything better. I just love being around you. But I really hope this isn't our last conversation. So. I don't know. I feel like that was a. A dumb question.

04:40 Okay. All right, well, that's all the time we have today. Thank you for letting me interview you. Do you have any last words before.

04:53 We conclude I have the best girlfriend in the world? And that's it.

04:59 Okay, thank you guys. Bye.
