• Nobody has any ideas
• We’ve covered all of this before.
• Our town is so boring.
• Students don’t read the paper anyway.
• Yadda yadda yadda
• What has made me angry lately?• What have I been curious about?• What am I planning to buy?• What did my best friend just ask?• What am I worried about?
Why not ask yourself some questions?
