JOURNAL TOPIC: ["Walking in L.A." by Missing Persons; "Walk on the Wild Side" by Lou Reed; "Walk On" by U2]
Taking a walk. It seems like such a simple, normal, everyday (dare I say banal?)
thing to do. But in stories it can take on all the meaning of our
inner feelings and perceptions. A walk can be a head-clearing, healthy
thing; it can also be an act of rebellion. The way we walk, the time of
day we walk, the contexts we walk in and out of, they all become
important when we're trying to get a message across. Think about your
walking life. Describe a walk you took that was important to you. If
you can't think of one, then describe your walk to this class in as much
detail as you can remember. If you can't remember detail, first ask
yourself why the &*!! not (it was only two minutes ago!) and then
reinvent your walk as a fictional vignette.
