POV descriptive writing

POV writing assignment: This is the continuation of what you did in class on Thursday. There, I gave you fifteen minutes to describe a place familiar to you, something you could easily bring to mind and mentally inhabit. The second part of that assignment is to imagine someone you know very well, someone whose perceptions and reactions you think you can picture, and place that person into that space you described. What would that person experience and describe in that space?

In part, this is an exercise in calling on your abilities to both perceive an actual space and detail that space, but it's also an exercise (as I say above) in point of view, in seeing things through someone else's eyes.

You may type this or not; it's up to you. I do want to collect it (mostly to see, in general, how people approached the assignment).
