Beaman Creepin'

I think what interested me the most was having to look into the subconscious happenings in the beaman that people do on a day to day basis.  There is some meaning to what they do, but I bet they don't even realize it by this point.  It's such a common ground and repetitive section of campus that is makes it hard to dig any deeper than face value on my observations.


What disturbed me was how watched I actually felt while I was essentially watching everyone else.  The tables somewhat turned and it often times made me more uncomfortable than they were and I was unable to focus.


What surprises me the most was the fact that I actually thought interesting things would happen in such a general location and in fact the happenings were very mundane and completely in the norm.  It also surprised me how one place can be used for so many different things and yet it still has the common themes of being a general location, easy, convenient, personal to an extent and comfortable.

    Overall, I think the post is great...very appropriate title. There are a few places you could be more consise; such as in the second paragraph with "actually felt', "essentially watching", "somewhat turned" and "often times". Otherwise, your subjects "do" the actions which makes the post clear and easy to read.
