First day of Sociology class

Silence?...Yes it is akward, because you don't know who's going to be in your class, and you're in a room full of people just sitting around not knowing what to do but to just sit there quietly. :/ thanks Mr. Salituro. I have experienced an akward silence before. When I  was in middle school, my math teacher from 8th grade was yelling at a kid in our classroom, and afterwards the whole class was nothing but quiet for a good straight 5 mins. Pretty akward i must say...but it ended eventually. What makes us get this way is our surroundings. They are what affect us all. Sociological Imagination is the explaination for this. We are affected by our friends, family, etc.  So by sitting in a room full of silence, no one knows what to do, so we all just sit in silence. Doing what everyone is doing. All of us felt some sort of akward presence, because we didn't know what to do. So our sociological imagination is based on who is around us and following whats going on.
