Evelyn Glennie Shows Us How To Listen

What struck you ?
It struck me when Evelyn Glennie said that deaf and i was so shocked because the drum and i was just wondering how she was playing if she didn't even know what it sounded like. But then she was explaining that she didn't need to listen to the drum in order to play it. She said that the only thing that you needed to do was to feel the drum
What did you notice?
I had noticed that she was putting a lot of emotion into her playing that her body would move to the sound of her drum and her marimba.
What did you enjoy about her performance ?
I liked that she would put her own unique style into her music and how she would change the distance between the sticks while playing the marimba.

1. What has Struck you about the location you visited? Was it what you expected, or very different?
   - Not that many things struck me because it was everything i expected but i did notice that there were different types of venders there. There wear venders who sold the fruits there were others who sold jewelry and some who sold food that was already made and they would also sell plants there as well.
2. Which items were cheaper than you expected? Which were more expensive? 
   - I thought that everything was cheap but i did notice as well that any type of berry was more expensive at the farmers market.
3. Do you think you will start going to a farmers market more often? Or using a community garden? Or supporting a CSA?
   - I think i will want to go to a farmers market because the produce looked more appealing  to me than produce at a regular supermarket. and because i know that it would be better for me and my family.
4. How do these locations fit into our essential questions of " Why Don't People Live More Sustainably?" and " How Can I Convince Them To Do So?" 
   - I think that these locations fit perfectly into those questions because after going to a community garden or a CSA or a farmers market you actually think why don't we live more sustainable and we know that the food is better but we still don't buy the food .
