My favorite source of information is my father. I love hearing about his past and all the crazy shit he use to do! He sounds like he was a lot like me, and think that is really cool. He has so much to say and tell me about my subculture. He has a very in depth look at Woodstock, and just hippies in general! and my fave piece of writing so far has been the first paper we did. it was fun!

six words

My life.... Have fun. get drunk. live life!

culture... live free. grateful dead. smoke pot.

This is a question I often asked my father and uncle, but they would always just laugh at me and tell me not to worry so much about it. Recently I sat down with my father to interview him for this project, and he told me something that I have wanted to hear my whole life… HE WENT TO WOODSTOCK! Now knowing that I have a firsthand resource to Woodstock, I knew that I could break this trend of not finding anything deep into the drug scene.

but there is one more that i keep close to me.

My father was hippie back when he was our age, and he would always try to explain his way of living to me. One night my dad called my sister and me down stairs so he could show us something. When we got into the basement he said “I know you two have grown up with a lot of people telling you that some for what you believe is wrong, but kids where we are from ALL WE NEED IS LOVE and we will never be wrong.” That night the three of us sat in our basement and listened to the entire Sergeant Peppers CD while he told us stories for his younger years. I never really understood until one night three years later when I actually sat down and had a long talk with my father about that night. After this talk, I was so intrigued to learn as much as a could about the hippie way of life, and from there on out I haven’t changed a thing about our beliefs. So when the mini-ethnography was presented to us I knew right from the start that this was the subculture I wanted to look into.

rhetoric

My definition of the word rhetoric would simply be the logic of a word. I feel like the way you speak, or just what you say constitutes the word rhetoric. I guess the other things that you listed could fall under that category, but in my eyes this is how i feel. I can honestly say that i never really here the word rhetoric used in everyday conversation, but i'm sure it is used somewhere not around me. Yes there is a rhetoric used in my subculture, and yes it will help me with this project. knowing this will help me with the final project, and the portfolio.

week 11

I feel like over the past 11 weeks there has been no change in the way i write or the way i approach a paper. its still all the same with me

....

iv got nothin.... sorry not that creative i really have a hard time doing this kinda thing on the spot.

week 10- late

In starting my mint-ethnography i will point out all the major points, and the history of my culture. This is so just to kinda of give a better understanding of the subject. I may going to break my paper down into may parts, there are a lot of things to cover and i plan to pin point most of them. It will mostly be sections with main focal points. I feel like what i'm going to do is going to be best because it will give the reader a better look at the full sub-culture.
