Voices
Volume was also played a big part for me while listening to people talk. Like when something was funny or very interesting the person would tend to speak up more and kinda stert laughing b4 they were done with their sentence, and when they found themselves talking about someone certain the volume would go down.
talk the talk
So all this weekend i was in the hospital visiting my mom. So i decided to watch people there. It was weird. People would be laughing outside and talking loudly and just being themselves but as soon as they stepped foot into the hospital the voices went down, the smiles were removed, and the conversations stopped or were changed to something less material. Then when doctors or nurses were laughing or talking loudly the visitors would glare and whisper... like its not allowed to have fun! I understand, i mean i would be upset too f the doctors were haing a grand old time and no one was helping my mom but just the amount of people who had this reaction was kinda surprising. Sooooooo i guess its not like real life situations but maybe it is.

I decided to listen to the way people talk on t.v. I noticed that the people I tend to listen to more and are more believeable are the people who speak at a medeum speed who talk with some volume and who have little to no accents. For me, I just thought that they knew what they were talking about and were believeable.
Talk
The one thing that I really noticed while watching other people talk was the volume with which they talked. There are some people who are just naturally quiet and no matter what they say or how they say it, they just naturally talk quietly. I found that there are others who constantly talk loud. Some of them even seemed to yell all the time without even realizing it. I also found that there were those who switched between both. They are quiet one minute and then the next minute they are loud as can be. It was interesting to see all of these in small group of people.
people talkin
i noticed that some people watch other people when they talk. they may look at those around them to see how they are reacting to what they are sayin. some people do not. some people do not care about what others are doing and just say what they need to say. i agree with a post i read about people act differntly when they are lying. that is very true. i think people listen differently as well. u can kinda tell when someone is really listening to what you have to say, or when they are just fakin it like shut up i dont care.
i enjoyed working on the skits once again, and am startin to realize what is asked of us.
i also liked drawing out our little areas in class thursday. not sure what they are for, but im sure we will do something VERY interesting with them.
See you all in about7 hours :)

talking
I noticed a few things when i watch people talk. I noticed that many of my friends use very little movement when talking. I also noticed that people look and act differently when they lie. I was kinda interesting to see but it felt semi stockerish like the other watching people activity that we did. Well see you all later.
Monday Night Postin
So I am not entirely sure if I am supposed to free post. I think we were supposed to write about how people talk to us and how we percieve and respond to it. So depending on my mood, day, time, etc.... I might find someone's harmless remarks completely offensive sometimes. Really anyone can ALMOST say anything, and you should treat them depending on their attitude towards whatever.
