week 5

My plan for finishing my miniature ethnography is to start recording more about the daily life of some of my informers. I don’t believe that I need to research more about my sub-culture. I feel that I have done enough research for the time being. I possibly may search out more professional sources, rather than the majority of informants and personal observations I have taken already. I also intend to research the weekend life of my culture more. I have attempted to do this at social scenes, such as sporting events and parties. However, “some how”, I always seem to get side tracked and caught up in the scene, rather than being a formal researcher. Obviously, I intend to perform more formal observations. Really studying on how people from my sub-culture interacting with other members of society (especially those of the opposite sex). Questions that I have for you professor, include those along the lines of how to; organize ideas and observations, style of writing (genera) that my ethnography is best suited for, and whether or not to use the information that I have gathered from my close friends – if so, how much.
