About

Hey there! Whatever brought to you to this site, bless. My name is Olivia Fragoso, commonly known as Liv. I'm a junior nursing major at Linfield College Good Samaritan School of Nursing.

I started the Foolish in the Crowd project about a year and a half ago, in trying to shift my perspective from the stress I dealt with daily to the things that make each day unique. It started with little pranks or thoughtful gestures, but eventually it became bigger than that. It became a sort of bucket list for daily life - instead of simply listing things that I eventually wanted to do, I thought of things that I knew I would do. Little things that I wouldn't normally have thought to do, but sounded like fun or an interesting challenge.

Foolish in the Crowd became a motivation to find a way of making each day special, but not necessarily by doing anything particularly special (like for instance, visiting the Eiffel Tower). I hope that my project can one day serve as inspiration to others how not to get sucked into the hum-drum view of life.

A friend of mine once teased me that my life seemed to her like "one big social experiment." I liked that sentiment. Life isn't a sequence of events, it's an experiment.
