The Mission


My entire life I have been the girl unafraid to do many things in public: sing along to my iPod, break out into dance, make over-the-top gestures, I think you get the picture.

I often find myself wondering "Did anybody see that?" The same question that pops into every one's head every time they slip, fall, or have spinach between their teeth.

The answer to this question is of course, YES! You are in public, of course someone saw it, only most people are to polite to laugh at you to your face! So, for a change I am going to be the person to secretly (or not so secretly) laugh, I have been waiting for this moment all my life.

I am going to take just a small portion of time out of my day, about 3 days a week to do just this. I am going to sit in the South Oval, watch and report!

The mission is to see exactly what people are willing to do, knowing that the world is watching.

I am not only doing this for entertainment purposes, but also to make discoveries. Perhaps after spending time observing other people's actions I will learn something about people in general... We will see!
