Wake up everyday, the intention to observe everyone is always in my mind as i get dressed and such. I get to my first class avoiding people that may try to talk to me and sit down in my cold seat. This routine happens a lot these days. I want to watch people, the way they speak, the way they use their bodies and the silent understanding they have. their body language, their facial reactions. it's all something I want to see, but not experience. So I wait for the day to begin and try not to get myself in any situation where I may have to commute with another person more then one worded answers the make them leave. Yet I can only get about maybe an hour in the day before my instinct to communicate takes over without me even thinking. It may sound strange, but I would like to just watch, be unnoticed for a day so I can freely observe the other people around me. Some days I actually see my learning of communication skills unfortunate. It would be so exciting to be able to learn so much from people without know you are just another person to learn from. It is so interesting the way people talk to each other, the way the can silently agree or understand something at the same time. Like if someone was talking to you and they accidentally spit on you. You know they did, they know they did, yet you have a silent agreement to not mention it, to avoid embarrassment. Then when they aren't looking you will wipe the saliva away and forget about it. Such things peek my interest. It's truly something to think about.

Communication Skills (Unfortunate)
Wake up everyday, the intention to observe everyone is always in my mind as i get dressed and such. I get to my first class avoiding people that may try to talk to me and sit down in my cold seat.
