You almost immediately conclude that a coffeehouse would be an ideal place to shrink yourself: it's the perfect mix of people who stay mostly stationary but enter and leave regularly. You could probably find one here near the office, but you figure it's probably a good idea to head away in the short-term if people start asking what happened to Dr. Marks, and there are plenty of coffee places back on campus.
You walk into your favorite coffee joint about half an hour later and smile. Not only are there a few cute chicks studying in the armchairs, but the baristas aren't so bad themselves. Best of all, there's enough furniture and it's late enough in the day that you duck behind a chair, turn the gun to "shrink," and fire. The experience itself actually turns out not to be that big a deal: you don't get dizzy or pass out or even feel stunned.
But psychologically the effect is staggering. You've thought about what it would be like to be shrunk your whole life, but you never expected the perspective to be quite like this. It's not just the chairs or even the people: literally everything you can see is absolutely enormous. There's a cup on the floor beside you that looks like a tower. You do some rough estimates and conclude you're probably somewhere around half an inch tall. A chill goes down your spine with that realization, but it's more excitement than fear. Finally, it happened!
Admittedly, it takes you a good fifteen minutes to come to terms with what really happened. But now you have to decide what you want to do with your time. You can see a girl in the big armchair across from you, intently reading a textbook. She's really cute. Still, though, you really found the counter girl to be pretty hot, and she hasn't really been moving at all. It might be fun to explore her too.
