Clients do not show up in TorStatus, that's for servers; however, an
observer could tell you're connecting to the Tor network. They could
not, however, tell what you're doing through your connection to the Tor
network (that's the whole idea).

Servers cannot hide from the Tor network or TorStatus, with the
exception of the bridge servers mentioned by Hans Schnehl (these are not
listed in TorStatus, but can be determined by looking at your connection).
