I also really liked the circle game we played today. It was fun because you were able to play a role in the game. You could easily deceive the guesser by staring at someone who wasn't the leader or by not looking at anyone at all. I enjoy the group activities a little more than partner ones. Its nice because there are more people working on an activity with you...more people to play off of and to take the focus off of you. It calms my nerves a bit.

The circle game was really fun and it was a different way to warm up. I wished we would have played it a little longer. When I was watching you can see that as the leader it is tough because you want to be able to get everyones attention at the same time, but everybody isn't always watching you. I felt the mirror exercise we did today using two sets of people was kinda tough. Most of the difficulty came from having to look through your perefrial to see what you had to mirror.

The circle game was pretty cool, the coolest part about this game is that even though it is so simple, there is strategy to it. You have to wait to the person isn't directly looking at you and you have to do soft movements and not dramatically change the movement you're doing or else it will be obvious that you are in fact the leader.

I also thought the circle game was a fun way to warm up. It was fun to watch everyone's faces as the game went on because people developed strategies on how to not let on who the leader was. I also realized today during the group mirror exercises that things that seem easy can be really hard to act out!

I also have the same feeling about the Circle game that we played at first. It was pretty need to try to manipulate the person who was standing in the middle. I am curious as to how difficult being in the middle was, i didn’t go in there. To me it seemed like unless we(the circle) gave it away or the leader made it too difficult that it was almost impossible to decipher which person in fact was the leader. I think if we do this activity more, we will start using a little strategy to keep the circle going. We will catch on; actually once we get good I challenge Fabio to get in the middle of the circle.

the circle game was a fun game it was interesting to watch the person in the react to the changes in the motions. i was a little disappointed in my proformance when i was in the center since i was the only one that could find the leader
