First off, the below post still holds true to today.
On a lighter, 2nd note:
Yesterday Zach and I pulled absolutely the BEST prank I've ever had the pleasure of being involved in. We traded identities on Facebook for a day. It was SO fun. lol and a wee bit challenging too, I'll admit. But it was most amusing IMing mutual friends of ours trying to impersonate each other. It takes a lot of thought to impersonate a friend of the opposite gender. I mean seriously, not only do you have to try and determine what they'd talk about or how they'd respond to stuff, but also how you type back the responses (like do they always use proper punctuation on chat? do they not capitalize their I's? How many M's do they put for a "hmm"? Do they use a lot of chat smilies?). It's also interesting seeing how people respond to guys vs. girls on chat. Like our friend Caleb... he usually wouldn't tease Zach about baking him a pie or start a conversation with me off with "Behind you!! a ZOMBIE!!!" ... *laughs* but today he did. Unknowingly.
Final verdict: I am apparently better at being Zach than he is at being me. (but near the end of our prank he got better at talking like me). I even managed to fool his mom into thinking I was him! LOL!
So yes...there you have it, another day in the life!

That sounds like fun!!!!!!!!
It is a lot to think about, when you impersonate someone. I guess observing them for a while is the best way. Watching their hand gestures, the way they talk to people. When their annoyed, what they do with their eyes, when they are sad, or tired, how they sit. I learned from my best friend how interesting it can be just to observe people.
Haha it soooo is =D
Yup, true that. That is why Zach and I were able to impersonate one another so well to fool everyone is cause we talk like alllll the time on chat :) lol its pretty awesome.
I hadn't thought too much about the whole in-person observing. That would be interesting.
Yah, sometime while you're in a circle of friends, just sit back and watch. It's hard for me, because I am used to always talking, but when I tried it, it was fun. Watching two people interact, how they annoy each other, what jokes they find funny, what mannerism they take on with each person . . . .
I ought to do that at youth group or something...lol man that would be pretty hard though cause I'm one of those people who ALWAYS has somebody talking to me.
