After reading Lawrence Ferlinghetti's poem "Constantly Risking Absurdity," which explores the poet's daring craft, write about your most absurd personal experience. Describe a single, specific incident that felt ridiculously bold or foolish. Ensure your response is vivid, concise, and captures the essence of absurdity.

 Prompt: I am not sure if this is absurd or not, but I had a hockey tournament in Nashville. I was supposed to go to the tournament a day before my dad could go and I literally forgot my hockey bag with all of my gear and hockey uniform. My dad was pretty mad because he had drop everything to drive my bag and uniforms all the way to Nashville. Good news is that I had a pretty great tournament that weekend.

Summary: I was not in class because I had a dentist appoint.

Reflection: Since the subject is absurdity, I think sometimes you just have to go with when things get absurd. If you move on with the absurbity and not stress out then you are more likely to have fun.

 A fter reading Chapter 1 of  Into the Wild , consider your first impression of Christopher McCandless. Based solely on the events and details presented in this opening chapter, do you believe McCandless truly understood the risks he was taking when he entered the Alaskan wilderness? Why or why not? Prompt Response:  My first impression of Chris McCandless was  that he was insane and very bold on burning all of his money and savings to go and live off the land in the Alaskan wilderness.
