Exercise C [grapefruit]

My first performance was drawing a map and getting lost. I chose to draw a treasure map, and then I followed my map through the library. As I walked through the library, I would look through books searching for my treasure. When my map showed me to walk in circles, I would walk in circles. I acted very frustrated if I ran into a dead end. As I approached the end of my map, I found my treasure. I was very excited about finding my treasure. I hugged my treasure as I could not believe I finally found it.

This was a very uncomfortable exercise for me. People go to the library to be left alone, and I noticed as I walked through the back halls that are less traveled, people had found their private spots. I noticed people watching me as I walked in circles, and as I embraced the chair or my treasure I should say.

For my second performance, I chose to wait in line at the library and pretended to have a conversation on the phone. I chose to raise my voice to have a loud conversation in the library, but I realized it was much louder than I thought. I think I was the most uncomfortable, but I continued to have my fake conversation until I reached the end of the line.
