People Watching

Last Wednesday I did my people watching and found it fun and creepy. People are really funny to watch, their mannerisms especially. I was watching this one guy who every ten to fifteen seconds would fix his hair in the window at the cafe or in his phone. He had the Justin Bieber haircut so he would swish it. It was very amusing. I also found a few things at FireFall that were interesting. During praise and worship whenever the music got louder more people would raise their hands but as the music faded the hands starting to fall. I'm not criticizing people and they way they worship I just found it interesting. Does the music have to be loud and of good quality to take part in it? That's how it seemed during FireFall and Chapel for that matter. But getting off my soap box I enjoy people watching but not in the creepy way. I was sitting in the Library last Tuesday and I noticed that at least half of everybody in there was on facebook or doing something else besides homework. Most people were on youtube but I'm guilty of this to.

Watching people allows you to see who someone is without ever even talking to them. You have to be an active watcher though. Taking notes on how people react to certain people and certain situation helps put together a picture of certain person. You can tell if someone is a dominant personality or a passive personality. You can tell if the person dislikes something or someone by watching their facial expressions. People generally express their emotions about something by using gestures or facial expressions. This is very prevalent while watching people. And so I leave you with this, watching people is interesting but a little creepy.
