I hope I get an A+ in people-watching...

For my philosophy class, we're studying inwardness (all the Hegel and Kant theories), and to further our studies, we've been given an assignment in which we are to "watch someone."

Guidelines:

1. They must be quiet; one of those folks that don't like to speak up much in class.
2. They cannot be someone in the administration or a student in the actual class.
3. We can't know them or have talked to them before.

Apart from simply watching them, we have to write journals about them.

I feel so creepy. And it's not because I've been eyeing (discreetly) this quite girl in my American Studies course, but because I'm also writing journals about her. If we're going to get real, I know everyone already watches the people around them. It's human nature to people-watch. But writing journals about them takes it to a whole 'nother level, usually referred to as stalking. As if it weren't enough to document all of their mannerisms, we can't use their name. We can only call them "Subject," or "the subject."

I need this assignment to bring my grade up to an A; I'm like .000006 away from an A. I'm also going to need an assignment for my American Studies course once I'm done using the entire class time to document the way this girl crosses her legs and speculate about her brain activity...
