Day 1

I am surprised how organized EMU's wrestling room is. They have all the equipment in it to make the team better. There are a lot of weights and bikes along a mirror wall for the wrestlers to get there training in. On the complete opposite side off the room are a line of black pull up bars. Two big green mats fill up most of the room, with padded walls and a wrestling dummy on the wall. There is a walkway on the side of the mat where the garbage cans and water are placed. There is also a little back room for storage with a scale and radio. The walls have paintings of the MAC, NCAA, and Eastern s emblems on them. There are also two big boards of history for accomplishments of past wrestlers and teams.

3 communitys

The community that I would most enjoy investigating would be the small, tight community of wrestling. Even though I am an insider already I think it would be a great experience to do this as I have never really looked at wrestling from an outside perspective. As I have been in the wrestling community and have been wrestling since I was 5 years old.

I have also thought to observe the library as i spend a good amount of time there each week studying and doing my homework. This will alow myself to know of the community that i seround myself with on a daily basis.I will mainly focus in on the library and on how it works / runs, see if anything interesting might come up. you never know.

The restaraunts is a great place to observe couples, so the closest restaraunt down my street Don Pablows (a nice italian place) would make a great place. I can also go to the movies to obsesrve couples on there non verbal communication or some sort. Basicly finding couples wherever. This topic of such a community finds intrest in me because I am also in a relationship and this community intrest me. I guess that this too will have me observeing to from an inside perspective as well.
