Blog 5

Jottings
- classmates were shy, including myself
- not a lot of movement in the beginning
- a little bit awkward in the beginning till someone made the first move

Headnotes
- I spoke to Flora first. We asked each other's names and began to examine the other smaller groups. In the beginning it was a little awakward but we warmed up to each other and conversations began to become easier.
- Next I spoke to Brianna and Jessica but mainly Jessica. We also examimed the other groups and how people were standing and their gestures with their hands. A lot of people had their hands crossed or were fidgetty with their phones. We spoke mainl about Greek life. It didnt feel forced, which was nice it came easily.

Things I remember
- the clutter that was happening in the center of the class
- the uncomfortable ness most people felt
- everyone taking notes on their phones

Field Notes
You could tell that everyone felt a bit uncomfortable. For awhile we all kind of just stood there and stared at each other but once someone made the initial move we all began to start walking towards one another. Looking around the room a lot of people had their phones out, I assume to take notes on the project we were performing. We didnt have much space to walk around so we all just stood in the middle of the classroom between the two rows of computers. I felt like it was kind of hard holding a conversation with someone because we knew it was being forced.
