Redneck

Okay a couple of days ago I was on my favorite blog feministing and came across the article "What's Wrong with Rednecks?". http://community.feministing.com/2009/02/whats-wrong-with-rednecks.html. This article struck me because I'm a redneck. I like bull riding, Nascar, country music and front porch sittin or anything else that people would normally associate with being from the country.
When I moved away to go to college is when I first really noticed that some people look down on others for being uncouth. The first year and a half I was away at college I worked hard to fully pronounce my words like going instead of goin and drop the words like yall and rig. I can remember the first time I said "yall" when I was out with a bunch of friends. They gave me so much crap. After a year and a half I came to the realization that I'm happy that I a redneck and where I came from and am not going to change anything about me because people may not like it. I'm gonna be proud that I had BBQ for Thanksgiving dinner that was grilled on a grill that was sitting on a old tire rim and the other one was in the wheel barrel. Any way where else but the country can you sit on the front porch drink tea and count the cars go by for entertainment and hear about it from all your neighbors?

re-start

Ok so i've had this blog for a little under a year and have posted very little before I deleted all my posts. I have decided Im going to start posting or a semi-regular/ regular basis. The topics posted will probably be random at best. Some posts will be my rambling, rants and even a few coherent intellectual writings. Feel free to criticize my writings in any way but I will not tolerate people using hate speech or personal attacks. Constructive criticism is good because it is the only to improve my writing or rethink what and how I wrote something and it will hopefully bring about a good conversation.
