So today following a test in US History Since 1877 I decided to take a little time and eat a snack at the Union. While there I fell back into an old hobby of mine that I like to call "People Watching", now this is not some sick and twisted excuse to stare at girls tits & asses, this is just a fun little pass the time exorcise in trying to figure out who is who and what they are thinking. Well today I decided to modify my little hobby. Today I attempted to use the time as research.
As I hope to write a book in a modern setting and at least partially placed in University at some point I felt it needful to see how the typical University student dresses, acts, interacts, so on and so forth in one of their most common settings. So there I sat just eating my chicken fingers with ranch dressing and watching them. I made no effort to hide my observation and in point of fact at times I openly stared directly at small groups for long times without redirecting my gaze. I did this on purpose to test a new born hypothesis.
My hypothesis is this, College students in a public setting at a University are easy PREY! In a fantasy world such as I am crafting for my book any of the myriad creatures such as a Vampire, Werewolf, Feral, Fae or any of the less savory and unnamed nasties would find a buffet. Only one girl noticed my gaze and she did not even notify her table. Not one of the other 3 girls looked over at my table. Where I a boggart they would be easy pickings.
Other observations I have where of a sea of Purple as this is the schools main color. Hoodies pervaded style wise on both male and females given the time of year as did jeans. When not wearing jeans tight or loose sweat pants seemed to be the norm on females with skin to fairly tight edging out the loose. Males tended toward looser jeans. T-shirts as always where everywhere.
