    2. more time to think about any essential parts to the game

      This would be a good point to then transition into talking about how you have observed behaviors on the court that require more investigation. Otherwise, this and the rest of the paragraph about being on the bench should probably be cut.

    1. Posts Posted on April 6, 2020GNC Phenomenology Study Phenomenology can be understood as the ways that people know and experience things within their lives. In thinking about phenomenology it can be useful to study other people’s personal experiences with the environment they interact with. This could be the way that people attach meaning to certain places or how they gather the knowledge that may influence action in that place. According to Pauline Couper, one way geographers can get at the essence of human experience is to examine the “unexceptional things we take for granted” (Couper 93). In this unique time of the COVID-19 virus pandemic, people may be experiencing the ordinary differently to be sure. For this case, phenomenological ideas were used to evaluate how GNC customers interacted with the store and the sales associate within. Notably, these interactions took place after a stay at home order was issued to the state. The fact that these customers came in to begin with may suggest something about how they are experiencing the pandemic.   Most customers entering the store had a heightened sense of awareness when shopping. They seemed mindful of touching products or doing the smallest action. It is hard to say whether it was because they were trying to be protective of their own health or wanted the sales associate to see that they understand the gravity of the situation the world is in and they are adjusting their behavior accordingly. However, it is certain that after observing shoppers on such as small scale, the mundane chore or buying supplements has been affected at some scale, especially for high risk customers. 

      Providing brief descriptions for all of these, like you did for the bottles, would give context to what's being presented.

    2. However, it is certain that after observing shoppers on such as small scale, the mundane chore or buying supplements has been affected at some scale,

      This sounds like an intro to complexity theory. A statement tying back to phenomenology would work.
