For my experiment I chose to act differently for a day. Normally I am upbeat, kind, and positive but on this certain day, I was sluggish, mopey, snappy, and occasionally straight up rude. I felt bad doing this to some people but with others it was hard not to laugh. One time is made a snarky comment to one of my friends and usually she would have ignored it but apperently she was really annoyed with me and went haywire on me. It was honestly the hardest thing not to laugh and at the same time cry. As I was watching how my peers acted towards me I realized two things: they were surprised and cautious but they also kept their distance from me. Many people asked if I was okay and that I was feeling well. Some tried to be funny and ask if it "that time if the month again". Others just tried to avoid me, probably hoping that this "phase" would be over soon. I would have to say that I more surprised by my reaction than my peers reactions. What shocked me was how easy it was to make comebacks and act the complete opposite of my usual self. It was definetly fun but I don't think I'll ever try something like that again.
