This time We observed the people and interactions. From their apparel, physical features and interactions each person proved to be unique in their own way. Firstly, Since I observed on valentines day, there weren't very many people there. Hmmm... Anyways, The first thing I noticed was a girl sitting at a table with her labtop. She was sitting straight up with her fingers perfectly placed over the keys. Her eyes were sort of... bulging?? for lack of better word. Yes, they were so focused on her computer screen that they were sort of bulging! She had long brown hair and a pointy nose. She was dressed in jeans and a hoodie. Her pants, scrunched up because she had her legs crossed, showed her festive mood with valentines day socks. They were all different shades of pink with that argisle pattern.

There was a guy and a girl sitting together. They both bad coffee and I never saw them pick up their cups the whole time I observed them!! I think they are co-workers in the student center because I see her walking in and out of her office right by the computer lab. They talked about traveling and places they have been. They discussed how they both liked to fly. Both were dressed with nice dress pants and shirts. She had a short bob, while he had a sort of scruff that he would every so often grab while listening to her talk. She was much more open and used her hand while talking while he was more reserved, sitting with his arms crossed.

The baristas were once again talking loudly. They were smiling, joking and laughing alot. They were all wearing the same black pants, black shirt, green apron and sporting the starbucks hat. Although they all looked the same, their laughs, tone of voice and use of words were distinguishing. One guy in particular was very loud while calling the drinks while another petite girl would gently lean over to give the order. Their conversation was all over the place! Mostly just joking around about random things. Occasionally asking, "do we have this? or that?." I think they had a new worker there because he was unsure where to find things.

One guy came and sat by me. His clothing consisted of a long black trenchcoat, black shirt and tie and black pants. He wore glasses and was carrying a kind of girl bag.Through his silver rimmed glasses I saw his oriental eyes, tired and worn. He sat in a comfy chair and rested his eyes while listening to his ipod.
