physically closer to so nothing seemed strange and of course we missed each other so lots of hugging, standing\/sitting very close to one another happened and was great.\u00c2\u00a0 But when I got back to work I realized that I was indeed standing closer to coworkers and invading\u00c2\u00a0 their personal space without realizing it. \u00c2\u00a0 I began to notice that often they would indeed step back from me.\u00c2\u00a0 So I realized, da da da duuummm,\u00c2\u00a0 that the very thing that I complained about for a couple of months\u00c2\u00a0 became second nature to me.\u00c2\u00a0 At some point my personal space\/ comfort zone changed whilst in England.\u00c2\u00a0 As I got to know and get emotionally closer to many of the people that I met, that I worked with and as I got more comfortable with my surroundings I allowed people to be physically closer to me which of course adjusted my personal space. \u00c2\u00a0 Now I have adjusted my personal space somewhat but I find that I am still inclined to take that one step closer than in the past.<\/p>\n<p>I found a piece of interactive art that demonstrates what I have been writing about, personal space by an artist called Scott Snibbe.\u00c2\u00a0 The piece is called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.snibbe.com\/projects\/interactive\/boundaryfunctions\/\">Boundary functions<\/a>, check it out.<\/p>\n<p>And thank you all for taking the time to read this blog.\u00c2\u00a0 I began it as a way to tell friends and family what was going on while I was in England.\u00c2\u00a0 I never imagined that anyone outside of that group would read it which is really cool.\u00c2\u00a0 So until next time.<\/p>\n<p>Ta luvs<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have noticed from comments sent concerning various entries
