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."

Lukeman Exercise Part One | Janette Jones

I chose to choose a short sentence from my work, and make it longer without combinding it wil the material preceding or following it.

Two years ago I moved to Peru, which is where my mother was born and raised. I lived with my grandma. Three days before I came home I went shopping for some things to bring home to my friends and family.

I lived with my grandma Gabriela, the same woman I named my baby boy after; I loved her very much.

Or

I stayed in my grandma Gabby's house, on the street named Venezuela, with my Grandma, or abuelita, my aunt Janet, and my cousin Kelly, who is a tramp.

Or

My grandma Rosa Gabriela Santander de Guzman, who went by Gabby to those who knew her well, and Gabriela to those who didn't know her as well; she was abuelita to me.
