The people

The groups, the masses, the people walking by. I love watching people as they walk or interact. Especially at a college where they aren't in groups but they are clumped together. You can pick people out of a crowd and watch them. Not in a freaky stalking way, more just observing their behaviors and actions. You'd be amazed at how much you can assume and deduce from just a 5 second observation. Their outfit says the most, then their face, and how they walk, how they hold themselves, and then their interactions or actions. Not to lie, it can be so shallow, but if you think about it, it is so telling for only few seconds. On campus, there is a myriad of stereotypes and special personalities to entertain. But, not to end there, as I waited for class, I sat in the hall, looked down while reading a book and did the same only up to the knees. Even more hilarious is the footwear people choose and I can't imagine why. It is not to judge, but just observe and enjoy.

Once again, thank you Portland for your happen-chance entertainment.
