Meal Time Activities

This week I decided to try going to the Pond on a different day than usual (Monday 10:00).  It was pretty busy and one thing that stood out was a group of five females and one male who were taking pictures.  The male was the photographer and he had on jeans and a polo shirt and was carrying his camera and tripod.  Two of the females in this group were his assistants and they were busy running around with reflective screens.  One was wearing shorts and a t-shirt and the other was wearing jean shorts and a t-shirt with a hoodie.  The remaining three females were the subjects of the photographer.  They were all wearing shorts and two were wearing t-shirts and one was wearing a long-sleeved shirt.  They moved around the area a lot and took pictures in several different places.  After they had gotten pictures at approximately five different places, they left as a group and were there for approximately 45 minutes.

Other than that there were one group of four, one group of three and 5 individuals.  The group of four was gathered at one of the tables and had three females and one male.  They were sitting at one of the tables and looked like they were studying.  There was a laptop being passed around that everyone in the group was looking at.  The male had on jeans and a t-shirt and a baseball cap and was not on his phone as far as I could tell.  Two of the females had on shorts and t-shirts and one had a hoodie on.  These two were primarily the ones passing the laptop back and forth and both were on their phones for a large portion of the time.  The other female had on jeans and a long-sleeved shirt and spent most of her time writing in a notebook.  They showed up after I had been there for approximately 15 minutes and were still there when I left.

The group of three had two males and one female.  Both males had on shorts and t-shirts and one had a skateboard with him.  The female had on jeans and a t-shirt.  They were sitting at one of the benches and were quietly having a conversation for most of the time they were there.  The male with the skateboard and the female were also using their phones for most of their time although they were still involved in the conversation.  The other male only checked his phone when they got up to leave.  They were there when I got there and left after about 25 minutes.

There were three females and two males that were there individually.  The first female was wearing yoga pants and a t-shirt and light jacket.  She was laying on the bench watching something on her phone with headphones in.  She left shortly after I showed up.  The second female was wearing shorts and a t-shirt and was reading a notebook and writing a paper at one of the tables.  She checked her phone several times before she unlocked her bike and left.  She showed up at around the same time I did and left after about 30 minutes.  The third female was wearing jeans and a t-shirt and she looked like she was waiting for someone.  She spent most of her time on her phone and left after about 20 minutes.

The first male had on shorts and a t-shirt and showed up around the same time the photography group was leaving.  He sat down at one of the benches and was presumably listening to music while he ate because he had headphones in the whole time.  He was still there when I left.  The other male had on shorts and a t-shirt with a hoodie.  He showed up after about 10 minutes and sat at one of the tables and had a book and notebook out.  He continued to study for the rest of my time there although he was on his phone several times.
