The detail put into the bowling alley was above and beyond my expectations of what this essay should look like. Although I live in the area, I've never been bowling in hanover and have no idea what it even looks. The images used in the essay are potent to all five sense and make me feel like I'm actually there. I can somewhat relate to the feel of a bowling alley, but I literally feel like I know what this place looks like and exactly how the people seemed.
For my essay on taco bell, I plan on going into the same depth in my research. Everything from the lighting to the people and the sounds to the smells, everything will be shown. I can also relate to the slight feelings of awkwardness in the early goings of the project. Talking to strange and different people can seem rather weird. I plan on making everyone who has never been to this taco bell know exactly what it looks like and exactly who goes there.
I couldn't agree more Leeman. The essay was very vivid and showed all five senses like you said which made it very intersting and enjoyable to read. You should be able to use a lot of your senses for Taco Bell and should be a very well written paper. Taco Bell is certain to be an interesting place and with your writing style can only be better!
ReplyDeleteI also agree that this essay goes in to great detail to the point the reader can easily visualize themselves at the bowling alley. It will be great to see the detail people put in to commonly visited places such as Taco Bell where people normally observe as anything but a cheap and easy place to grab a bite. With details such as in the bowling essay though, I won't be the least bit surprised to discover an interesting culture within the restaurant never before noticed.
ReplyDeleteLeeman, I completely agree with you. The imagery and detail that went into this essay was great. I could easily picture the bowling alley. Also, I am going to feel a little awkward at first when I am at the police station and when I have to interview the officers. I think Taco Bell is a great place to research because there is so many details to write about such as the food, smells, people, and the building itself. I am interested to get some insider information on Taco Bell.
