An Interview with a Cousino

I'm really glad I chose Kevin Cousino to interview. The session was so uplifting, we laughed and cracked jokes the entire time and I miss those good ol' high school days. I learned a lot of things that I didn't know about him and we got to talk about the environment. I can't wait to write my paper, I have a lot of good quotes and a lot of funny ones that I could spend filling up the paper, but I want to show a different side of Mr. Cousino. For example we were talking about how when a person sees a celebrity driving a eco-car, they have to get it. I replied saying, "Yeah, people are just like sheeps." And he says, "Right [pause] put me down for saying that!" Of course I didn't, but we just joked around the entire time. All that laughing that went on, I think I've gained 3 years onto my life.

Also, I told him about my plans on going to Chile this summer (since he asked me how my trip in Australia went). He told me about students and what they're doing for the environment and people less fortunate and it got me thinking about that. Maybe when I'm in Chile I can build houses for less fortunate ones and maybe even go to the very south where the Glaciers are melting and document my experiences. Who knows... really. All in all, the interview was splendid and I couldn't have chosen a better community member.
