What Inspires You?

This is your INSPIRATION BANK. You will create a page in
your “Inspiration Journal” for each of these ideas. There are no limits for
your Inspiration pages. I want you to open your mind, use your senses and
creativity. This writing will not be graded or critiqued. It will strictly be
used for idea seeking purposes. Inspiration journal will be part of your weekly
homework and will be checked for completion.
