assessment 4

On drift 2 I was in the third ward, an area bustling with human activity. I went on what was one of the first nice days of the year and there were lots of people out enjoying it. As I made my walk and was recording various objects, I was profoundly aware of the difference between the way i was looking at my surroundings and the way everyone else was. I was finding beauty in the most mundane of things while others sought entertainment through more typical means, shopping and the like. That moment reminded me that the kind of mentality needed to go out on these drifts I should attempt to carry with me at all times, for even a simple walk can turn into an extraordinary experience.
