Assignment #3 final observation


The first time I went to there again was the afternoon. I was on my way to go home after finishing my classes. Before, I have seen a lot of people taking a picture with that place. There were people who enjoyed that place, leaping for the joy. However, unlike before, there were little number of people. They just passed out memorial hall with fast-paced walking. During ten minutes, I only saw nearly 20 persons who just passed out there for any other purpose. I think they want to get out of there because sunshine was strong and the weather was hot outsides. Also, the level of humidity was so high that even I couldn’t stand there for five minutes just observing some people. I was covered with sweat, and the clothes was soaked with sweat as well. And I saw squirrels that jumped one tree into another tree. They seemed looking for the food competing with other squirrels. This is because after any one squirrel found out the food and then eat that, another squirrel who was chasing the squirrel changed his direction toward another tree. In addition, I realized that squirrel’s pace of running is somewhat slow than before. Also, I heard sound sung by the bird, and noisy sound by the cars. What I figure out from observing this area is that hot weather play a significant role in the behavior of someone, no matter it is person or animal.

The second time I back to there in the night. At that night, I noticed that the light of the memorial hall was excellent because its light has changed based on every time per five minutes. I just stared at the light without concerning about anything. I felt like I came to the king’s palace. I took fresh air and heard quiet sound from nearby. And I saw only seven people. Unlike the afternoon, it is likely that they walked out with peaceful and comfortable feeling, due to little hot weather than before. Thanks to that, I could also stand this area for the ten minutes with comfortable emotion. I could hear the droning of a cicada loudly because there were few people as well as cars. What I learned from observing this area is that people including me could feel relaxing in the same space by seeing those who would feel comfortable.

The last visiting in this area was dawn. There was little sound. I could just hear the sound of birds and train. Also, there was nobody in this area. Because any people or animals did not show up, I felt alone and wanted to go back home. Thus I just decided to stare at this building. However, right after feeling like this, I noticed that the color of the sky was very beautiful to me. Moreover, the color from the sky and the light from that building were a good match, which made a grotesque sight. I felt like I was refreshed by that sight and got more energy and stamina to make a living. What I learned from observing this area is that by seeing beautiful scenery, people are able to get some energy and take a break for a while.
