Observing Human Habits
People and their strange habits, where does this strange behavior come from? Last semester I was able to observe many of my peers. From this, I had noticed some unusual habits of theirs.

While sitting in my computer class at Hudson County Community College, I watched my classmates give introductory presentation in front of the class.

A few minutes passed and she repeated this act again. I also looked at my watch to discover that this habit of hers occurred every three minutes.
I was amazed. Dee was not only tapping her juice but also repeated this action at the same time span. I wanted to question Dee about this mysterious tendency except I was afraid of offending her. Several nights later, I decided to question her about this strange doing. Dee had told me, “It’s for good luck.
