Cat's Cradle

So, if you're like me at all (and, I heartily dissuade you all from it), you find that the mall is nothing more than a place to kill time before guitar lessons. Or maybe buy a birthday card. But not much else. So, since I have no real reason to be there, I try to find ways to makethe trip a bit more interesting. A few ideas if any of you find yourself in the same situation:

1.) keep an eye on someone walking in front of you, and try to match their pace, step by step

2.) when on the escalator, stand straight up, arms crossed behind your back, and stare straight ahead. no blinking, no twitching, no nothing. then, when you feel your feet hit the end, step off and move as you normally would

3.) when you're walking around, change speeds for no good reason

4.) stand and stare up to the next level, but not at anything in particular

5.) try criss-crossing around benches, dividers, etc

6.) stop and turn around, again, for no good reason

7.) try chaging the way to walk. longer stride, short stride. make your own silly walks!

As I said, it's probably not the best idea if you're like me. But you know, if it helps the trip to the mall get a little more exciting, than it's worth it.

Cuidado, llamas!!!
