Horseback Riding: This is something that is a major factor in my life. Im practicing every weekday after school and usually spend all morning and afternoon working, teaching, and riding on weekends. Needless to say it takes up huge amounts of time. It has always been something Ive had to work around since I started ridng when I was 5. I will miss many days in the school year for competitions, I will not get an A on a paper because I was at the barn instead of studying, and I will not have as much time to hang out with my friends becasue im with my horses. To me this is a sacrfice I am willing to make but it is something that completely rules my life...
Functionalist Point of View: In this point of view riding is seen as something that I participate in as well as school, social events, and daily life. All these things combine together to make up me. :)
Conflict Theory Point of View: In this point of view riding is something thtat dominates my life and everything I do. I will strive to become the best at my sport so that I can make money, buy the things I want, and basically trump everyone else.
Symbolic Interactionism Point of View: In this point of view riding places me in the more quiet, withheld, loner social group. Because of this I am effected by not hanging out with friends as much. Not having as many friends. Or avoid social gatherings in general.
