For my Drawing class, we each had to make a list of 100 questions that sincerely intrigue us. This is easier said than done. It was pretty hard actually. It took me several hours. I mean, we constantly are thinking of things that intrigue us or that we question, but when it comes time to actually write them all down at once, it is hard to remember them.
