How I did it: Well I came from the store and I saw the bus stop. I figured, well it's about time I take this off my list. I sat down on the bench. It felt like I waited there forever. One guy came up to me and told me he liked my hat. I thanked him. Then he said "I'm on a mission and I need $1.75." "What kind of mission?" I asked. "A mission to buy cigarettes" he said. I told him that I can't in good faith support someone's smoking habits. He thanked me and went on his way. The guy on the bench next to me then went on a rant about how today's youth need to get a damn job. I looked at him, and he turned red. Then he said "Oh I see you are today's youth." We kept talking, he asked me where I was going, and I told him I didn't know. Finally the bus came I got on. A few more people came up to me and mentioned something about my hat. I sat on the bus, looked outside. Finally after about half an hour it took me the the colliseum. I got out looked around. Again more people came up to me and started mini conversations about my hat. I decided to take the LRT home. I waited at the station, and someone else came up and mentioned my hat. I got on and went to the closest LRT to where I live. I was walking down the street and someone came up to me and mentioned that they liked my hat.

Lessons & tips: If you're going to do this wear a hat. Apparently it's a good conversation starter.

Resources: a bus pass, a hat.
