Journal Entry 1

1- Thursday, February 3rd, a friend’s apartment on Front Street.

2- Someone is coughing, and there are firetrucks in the far distance. I can also hear a clock ticking.

3- A dog is trying to open a door with her paw, someone is typing, and the wind is causing the house to creak. Occasionally someone gets up and moves around.
4- There is someone asleep next to me, and they are snoring, and occasionally muttering to themselves. I can hear my stomach growling.
5- It’s very quiet, there isn’t a great deal of noise going on, only the occasional movement of people in the apartment as they come and go to and from class.
6- It feels sleepy.
7- The clock ticking, the house creaking, and the person snoring would be essential to this environment.
