Nothing

We were instructed to do nothing for 10 minutes in a populated area. I decided to do nothing at Starbucks. I didn't get a drink or eat anything I just sat there and did nothing. But before I started the project I couldn't stop thinking of why I'm doing this and what people are going to think of me. So I got to Starbucks and had a set close to the counter. People were rushing in and out a few would stay and enjoy their break. But I still had trouble doing nothing. I mean I was physically doing nothing but my mind wouldn't stop racing. Once I got back in class we discussed the purpose of this activity and it was to show us how we are programed to constantly doing something. After this I took a look back on my life and I remembered that my dad was always telling me to do something like get a job or do my school work or anything that I wasn't already doing.
