My bedroom:   I have single bedroom which design for a male. the first thing I would see when I go on would be a table with Books including Holy books which I read every Friday, the Holy books represent that I am practicing a Muslim culture and a photographs of my traditional culture products such as Art photo of my dad and Camel which I drawn when I was young and football players. All these products associated with my cultural identity and my favourite football players which represent that I am a football fan of Manchester City and the players I like the most like Yaya Toure, Samir Nasri and Sergio Aguero. Also you would see football clothes which show that am not only a football fan also that I play football. I design my bedroom different culture colour as I have different culture personality like British culture and Somali culture.

"last week we talked about goth sub-cultural group"

I have  read an article about goth sub- culture, I found very intersted points in both negative and positive side.

summary..
some researchers believe goth community, they are serious self- harming groups, which they believe in the goth community: there's idea, you can't be a real goth unless you self-harmi.

Dr Micheal Van Beinum, a child psychiatrist said, for some young people with mental health problems, a goth sub-culture may be attractive, as it may allow them to find a community within which it may be easier for their distress to be understood.
This reamainds when we were talking about group and how we join in a group,,,, because one of the reason we join a group is ACCEPTED so that we can socialise with them.

What i found very interest in goth community during my reaserch is, a community which make the unwelcomed feel welcome. Not governed by race, gender, religios, or political views, age, class, or social status. they are governed by living an alternative lifestyle outside mainstream culture. For me it;s positive view.

To me culture,has many different meanings.  For some it refers to an appreciation of good literature, music, art, and food. i believe evryone has a culture whether that's a high culture or popular culture, people around the world are similar in their essential humanity, e.g we communicate with each other, we sustain ourselves with food, we sleep and we often dream. still we speak different language and eat diffrent food. These are what we call cultural diffrence. i have been living in Somalia and Ethiopia, these countries have same border and racial similarity  but have diffirent culture. However, culture is what binds us together as Human beings but also seperates us into our different communities.
