Stranger Than Wal-Mart

"Some 138 million Americans shop at Wal-Mart each week, making it perhaps the single most unifying cultural force in the country."

Faces | Christie Fordham

1. The muscles in my face ache from straining as the tears fall down my cheeks.

2. My mouth is open wide while I give a burst of laughter to the joke that was said.

3. She winks at me to let me know that she's joking.

4. No expression whatsoever. Just a blank look telling me that she just doesn't get the explanation.

5. As the girl is carving the pumpkin, her tongue sticks out and moves each direction she pulls her knife.

6. She has lied to me again, I look at her with disgust as my lips purse and my brow narrows.

7. As he starts to dream, there is complete relaxation in his face.

8. I watch as my roomate get into a movie. She imitates the character's feelings. When the character is sad, she frowns. If the character is angry, her face bunches up to build pressure.

9. I walk into the apartment with a sweet little smile left by the hug I just recieved from the boy. What a great night I just had!

10. As the girls listen to the concert, they start to sing the songs. Not only do they sing the songs, but they try to imitate the singer by scrunching their brow and seducing their smiles.

I love those shongs that you can't help but get your face into it when you sing along. Songs that just pull your whole body into it until you eventually pick up a brush and jump on a table cus you can just feel the beat pulling it out of you. Oh! I love it!

I like number eight. My roommate does the same thing, to an extreme. Shes happy and sad with the characters, but if the character is scared, she hides under the blanket.

Wow, these were really good. They seemed so real, and not just like a description. I especially liked #7. I could not fiure out how to describe someone sleeping in simple terms and you nailed it. So easy to understand yet so provacative! The imagery of it was very clear. Very cool indeed.
