Other Shoes Results

Tuesday morning was our planned day for doing our experiment and Gabby -being the good person she is- remembered to dress for it and i did not. So we are going to focus on her reactions and not so much mine. For the most part people took notice to the fact that she wasn't wearing her facial jewelry and less to the fact she wasn't wearing skinny jeans. The reaction that people had was as we predicted. This is because it wasn't a drastic change but it was something that we don't normally do.
What we learned from this is not to to forget about your projects :). Also, we now know that just because you see yourself a certain way doesn't mean everyone else will. We had expected alot of people to notice because even though they change doesn't seem like a big deal it was something pretty out of the ordinary for Gabby and we over estimated it. If i had changed my hair color and taken out my piercings I'm assuming the reaction wouldn't be much different either.

Our English III Honors Project

Gabby and I plan on dressing out of our norm for our project. Gabby has been known for her skinny jeans since middle school and I've had the blonde stripe in my hair since sixth grade. We believe that if we changed these things about ourselves people would definitely notice. We would also plan on taking out our facial jewelry because those are also things we both have and wear every day. This doesn't represent a certain group of people but it changes from the way people usually view us.
