I, from time to time, have visited the architecture building to check on my roommate keep her company. Doing my field study over architect majors has allowed me a purpose to be in the studio, and gave me a chance to really observe what was taking place.
What suprised me
I went to the building rather late on a week night to observe students working on a project. I in my comfortable clothes expected the students to be working comfortably in t-shirts and sweatpants, when I got there I was shocked to see many of the female students in high-heeled shoes and nicer clothing, while many of the boys were in polos. This was shocking because when I am working hard I like to feel comfortable in my pajamas, especially at 1:30 in the morning. It is as if they are trying to impress the other students. They take themselves very seriously, and this is displayed in their clothing choice.
What intrigued me?
The amount of socializing that went on was intriguing. Many students spent their time talking to each other, and not about class related items. They talk about everything from weekend plans to relationship problems. They are all so close they can talk to eachother about anything. They are like a small family.
What disturbed me?
Watching them do their work made me feel worthless. They are very miticulous people who put a lot of effort into their projects. They stay up for hours upon hours perfecting their work, while I spend the minimal amount of time on my homework. I made me feel like an awful student!
