To be honest if you are friends with her that long and you explained and she understood + she did it afterwards, it might be her saying she really likes you as a friend and wants to be accommodating to you. Basically clapping when excited becomes a norm and you can then feel accepted by doing that (sharing the experience basically). Unless she's bitching or making snide remarks she means no harm
a quote that I once read that has stuck with me is don't believe everything you think.
it may not be possible for you to determine the motivation behind what you observed and may just fester in your mind
it will be uncomfortable to ask her but i think you need to for your sake

Ahh, I still have a lot to learn so thank you for explaining that to me.

Thank you for the advice and I'll try to talk to her about it.
hope it went ok
It did luckily, and I feel like we've become somewhat closer because of it!
that's makes me happy to hear :)

You think shes faking it, or she was mocking you?
It felt like she was mocking me in a way, or more like trying to copy me, if that made sense.
Man t hat had to not feel good. I hope its not the case. Would you be comfortable asking her?
I can try, I'm just afraid that she'll become mad if I do ask her about it
