Blog 9 - 3 Ideas

Idea #1:

A few blocks away from my house is a park like any other. However, there is one thing about this park that causes it to stand out from the rest. Within this park is a smaller park, a skate park where daredevils and risk takers fly around and soar through the air on bikes and skateboards.

This park within a park lasted for about four months before being shutdown. A huge red shine hangs on the fence with talk about relocation.

Now the work of thousands of tax dollars sits deserted, an empty shell.

With this environment, I could talk about a world within a world that is one day alive, and is invisible the next. How something so massive can go untouched and unnoticed and slowly die out like a candle in the wind.

Idea #2:

Only on the days that I assume I am about to be late for class do the geese of Warinaco park decide to use the cross walk and stop me from reaching my goal. They line up and actually use the crosswalk together.

I'll stop and the people behind me on this two lane road decide to get out from behind me and speed down the one way road only to find that I haven't been sitting there like a moron for no reason.

The geese are so orderly and follow one another in a very humane fashion. This makes it ironic to see humans with road rage act like animals in front of them. I can be walking through the park or skating it and see someone in my shoes on their way to work, or school, or home being passed by impatient people who are inevitably stopped by this wall of geese.

Humans acting like animals and animals acting humanely...ironic.

Idea #3:

Crickets.
