Descriptive Feature Essay… bleh
To be honest i’m having trouble figuring out what to write about for my essay. I’m not sure if this is because i just don’t know Pittsburgh that well yet to know many places that would work for this out of the ordinary assignment.
The first place that came to my mind when thinking about where in the world i could possibly write a paper about AND do an interview with someone was the Mt. Washington incline. I was interested just because i know that it has a lot of history here in Pittsburgh since it has been there for many many decades. Also I would have someone to interview, such as someone who worked there.
I did have a few other ideas though, one being the one spot where someone is sitting all day long… the security guard at AIP. i think that it’d kinda be interesting to interview him, doubt he’d really have much to say though. So i decided against this topic.
Next topic i thought about doing was possibly one of the museums around here, possibly the Andy Warhol one. But I also decided that could get boring and might have trouble finding someone to interview. So i started to try and think of anywhere else that’d work for this assignment, i thought of one other place…
The last place i could think of was Point Park. Honestly i’ve never even been there but i feel like it could be neat to observe people… but i don’t think i would have anyone to interview… so again wouldn’t work, which is why i’m not the biggest fan of this essay assignment.
Ultimately i am probably going to choose the Mt Washington Incline cause i think it could fit the criteria of the project, and as for the angle i have no idea, that’s yet to be determined.
