okay so my English teacher was reading part of a book called "Starpeople" to the class. It's about a girl who loves to observe things around her. she observes people and through their actions and what they dress like, what their mood appears to be, she thinks of a kind of card to give to them. she really doesn't give it to them, it's just for fun. like if you see someone and they are like coughing and stuff they might be sick so you might give them a "Get Well" card. We had to observe a person for 10 minutes then we have to answer these questions:


List no more than 8 phsical characteristics of the person you have chosen to observe:

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.

What words would descibe this person's hairstyle today?


What might be behind the reason for this style on the particular day?

What type of clothes is this person wearing? (color, formality/informality, condiction, in style/out of style, where do you think these clothes were purchased?

Why do you imagine this person chose these clothes today?

You can tell a great deal about a person by the shoes they are wearing. What type of shoes, (color, style, condiction) is the person wearing?

Why is this person wearing these shoes (besides "just because")

What is this person carrying? (shopping bag, briefcase, backpack, purse, etc?)

What do you suppose is contained within these "bags"?

What is the main expession this person is wearing? (happy, sad, indifferent, hurried, irritated, etc.)?

Why do imagine he/she is feeling this way at the moment?

Is this person alone/ if not, how are those with him/her responding to the person?

Does this person walk with their eyes looking striaght ahead, or looking down at their feet?

why do you suppose this person is carrying him/herself in this manner?

Does this person own any pets? If so, how can you tell?


What kind of card do you think you would make for this person?


After answering these questions include anything else that comes to your mind wither based in fact or imagined about this person.


This is a really good way to create characters in your story. it's fun too! lolol

I think it would be cool if you guys tried this and then copy these questions and answer them after observing someone and then posting it in this thread. Smile I'll do it too.

you're not stalking anyone. just being observant! lolol
