Sightings

A couple days ago my friend and I were sitting by the window at Epic Burger. Were sat there talking about our friends and what was going on in each others lives. Soon after we found ourselves looking out the window at the people passing by. We looked at what they were wearing and what they were doing. We could point out all the kids who went to Columbia, Depaul and Roosevelt. We were looking at the new kids and the students who we could tell where upperclassmen. We saw the business people who work in the high rise buildings. And the nannies trying to take care of their children. Although we only saw these people passing by for a few seconds, we could see how they fit into different categories and stereotypes. Although each of these people were different some of them shared a common story.
