We all do it. Stare at the strangers around us and wonder what thoughts are flickering through their minds.

We endeavored to find out one night.

Location: Thumbs
Time: 10pm -2am
Question: What are you thinking?

“The people I am going to meet the rest of the day. The potential situations I am going to be in and how I will interact with those people. Situations of dating and who I would want to be with and how that would play out. Also about being in the park.”
-Lindsay

“I hate Union Pacific.”

-Will

“Daydreaming about sex and sex situations.”
-Tim

“Stress and bullshit and money.”
-Kious

“Zombies.”

“Computer generated characters are too moist. I don’t want to see the movie 300 again, but I almost did and almost cried at the end again.”
-Bryan

“Why don’t I have more money?”
-Kallie

“School work. Am I going to fail out of college? My grandma and dog are going to die.”

-Will

“I don’t make it to class and I want to see my dog.”
