How are all of you doing on this fine cloudy day? Peachy, I hope.
So right now I am sitting in a little sitting area...it was all nice and quiet...until...this tarty girl started yell at her phone...well not at her phone specifically, someone who had called her and she just had a 5 min domestic with her caller about W.O.W and whatnot. It was actually quite funny, she didn't care if anyone could hear her...what an odd, odd lady indeed. Oh the things you can hear just sitting and listening to peoples conversations like a creepy eaves dropper...muahahaha!
It is actually quite a fun thing to do...especially people watching, not just listening to their convos, cause you can make stuff up about them. Sometimes people make "People Watching" their hobby...or obsession...or stalkerness?...which ever word you prefer is fine with me! Now for those of you who do not know what people watching is...it is exactly what it sounds like.
But none the less here is the how to! And I have taken the liberty of looking it up for you! (Yay me!)
- Decide the parameters of your people watching. Now what I have found goes on to say that people watching is to just obsrve the way people live and whatnot. But I do not believe this is mostly correct. It also says that you shouldn't judge them. I how ever say judge them all you want! They will never know, and that is the best way to make stories about your people!
- Try to be natural when people watching. It would be rude just to stare at someone you don't even know, so try to be ninja sneaking when doing so.
- Next is to find the perfect spot! Now you mostly want a spot where there are lots of people scurring around because then it is easy to pick people out.
- Stay unobtrusive. Here your ninja/ secret agent skills really come into play cause people tend to get the heebee jeebees if they feel some one is watching them.(Sun glass help to hide where you are looking and they make you look cool!)
- People watching with a friend. This can make things more fun because you will have more input and creativity for the observed person's story and background.
- Know how to react if the observed becomes the observee! I say take everything in stride, so you can either talk to them or run away yelling "George Je l'ai trouvé! George Je l'ai trouvé! George Je l'ai trouvé!" which means "George I found it! George I found! George I found it!" Which in my opinion would be the best option.
And there you have it chums that is how you people watch, it is fun and entertaining and you never know what will happen so go and working on your people watching skills. If you find anyone interesting I would love to hear about them.
But time for class!
Live Long and Prosper!
