I like to observe people. Look at their body language. How they are feeling. Try to figure out their emotions without knowing them. My mother, sister and I can do this for a long time. When we're out, sometimes we'll take a seat and people watch. I really enjoy this because it opens my eyes to new things. The other day my mom and I were talking about this subject. When she lived in New Jersey she would go to New York, sometimes by herself, sit on steps and watch people. Now, I've never been to New York but I know it would be quite a wonderful place to people watch. Tourists with their cameras, the people walking briskly to get to their jobs on time, and the cranky people who push their way through. My mom even said she saw a streaker on rollerblades speeding down the middle of the road.
One of the places I've been to was California. On the beach. The women sun tanning with their leather skin and the surfers trying to catch a gnarly wave. It's just something I am really interested in doing, and to add a little twist, sometimes I'll narrarate the people as they pass.
What do you like doing? Do you do this as well?
