OBSERVATIONS6 observations of 6 different places in the point of view of 6

different eyes…

VictorAvid runner and a hopeless romantic

While running from the Men in Black once again he paused to look at a store he had

never noticed before. Quickly he ducked inside hoping he had evaded them.

Upon entering he notice the copious amounts of candy &

pop in the entrance.

Amongst all of the comic books, movies, records, CDs and toys…

There were decorative

wreaths

Thinking the coast was clear, Victor made his way towards the door but someone caught his eye.

She introduced herself as Maria and Victor was right away smitten. He was happy to find out she was newly single

as she just broke up with her boyfriend!

and self proclaimed psychic

After breaking up with her boyfriend, Maria decided it was

time for a life makeover, starting with her apartment. On a high

from getting that cute boy’s number at Eidies Entertainment store, she skipped her way to the

strip district when a window display caught her eye.

There was so much to see and everything was so

inspiring. This was the perfect place to pick up

things to revamp her apartment.

She loved these ornaments but wished

this place offered classes to show her

how to make her own!

As Maria shuffled through all the fabric she heard her name being called. She wasn’t surprised to see her new friend,

Amelia in the store. She had a feeling she would run into her today.

Amelia asked her how her first day of classes went but to Maria’s surprise, she

completely forgot to go!!

Amelia the constant reader & debater of all topics

While walking around after her

first day of class at the university she stumbled upon a

bookstore…

She marveled at

the art

that was in

the store

, thinking it was

unique,

beautiful and

sometimes scary

It was small & quaint,

giving her the

impression that only the best books

were here.

She though

t old phones

like this one

were extinct. But

thought it was cool how this

store used.

And the old

stereo was neat too!

Amelia looked all around and wished there was a comfortable place to sit but was disappointed

when she couldn’t find a spot.

Instead Amelia found her “frenemie” Jennifer.

They cautiously avoided each other, pretending they hadn’t notice that the other was there. Jennifer slipped out of the bookstore before

having to say hi.

Jennifer

Guitarist & Extreme Cat Lover

A bit frazzled from seeing Amelia, Jennifer was glad to leave the bookstore before

having to talk to her. She had just finished band practice and

was looking for a perfect gift for her mom downtown. A boutique

caught her eye.

The door was open and looked very inviting.

Everything was unique

and very crafty. She

was surprised to find out

that everything

was homemade!

She learned

that local

crafters used this

shop to sell

their goods.

On the way out of the store, Jennifer ran into friend and band

mate Jared, who also happen to be her secret crush.

Though he seemed sad and she felt sorry for him, she was pleased to

find out that he had been dumped.

JaredSinger, songwriter and fan-fiction enthusiast.

After being dumped by his girlfriend, he was in no mood to

hang out with friends, even Jennifer. He somberly strolled

alone and found himself in Market Square.

Just like it’s name,

restaurants & shops

surround the area in a square. While

approaching the center of the square he noticed

what looked like a

constellation that would light up at

night.

When he googled it on his phone he found out that it was a symbol of the North Star chosen to honor Pittsburgh’s history in anti-slavery. The lights in the ground are aligned as the

stars would have been seen in the heavens on June 2, 1835 at 8pm, the first recorded

meeting date of the Pittsburgh Antislavery Society.

Suddenly hungry, Jared decided to get something

to eat.

Jared thought his luck was turning around as he spotted a very pretty girl sitting at the bar in the restaurant.

Something about her seemed out of this world.

Unfortunately for him, Vanessa thought all human boys were weird and unpleasant.

over Earth

Vanessa had been waiting all day inside a restaurant called Primanti Bros. where she was suppose to meet

her brother.

Finally taking note of her surroundings she noticed

that there were a lot of menus around. All along the wall and several on her table.

When she asked the waiter what the #1 best seller was, he

responded with “beer”

She noticed that most the sandwiches served here contained

French fries & coleslaw in them. A true trucker’s meal they said!

Ready to leave, as that human boy kept staring at her, Vanessa was very happy to see her

brother finally arrive.

Unfortunately he brought a guest.
