my paper blog


Description: http://www.asu.edu/tour/tempe/photos/src.jpg

My paper uses the lens of Mark Twain and his short story of “two views of the Mississippi” I used his view on tourism and wander and all his lenses to really bring the weight room of the Sun devil recreation center into more than just a room where people work out and turn it in to more in to a place where we can make ourselves athletes it is a place where students can change into the best they can be. I used the lens to take each part of the weight room and bring it to new light weather it was from the view of a tourist and weather it brought wonder into the eyes of new members and I also went into the emotions that fill the room and make it what it is. I then go on to bring in how all that wonder can be lost and how you can give up on those feelings and love for the place I even went into how a seemingly harmless place that you spend so much time in can be so dangerous and can even cause you physical and worse even emotional pain. I wrote my paper on the Sun Devil Recreation center because I personally spend most of my time there and am so involved in the schools athletic clubs and figured I could change this view of just a space into a place that really means something to me and the students at ASU
