1. Youth Culture By: Emma Sundström

2. Youth culture In Sweden most of the youths go to school. I don’t think that everyone likes going to school and that’s why some people then play truant, but I think education is important. The schools in Sweden do not have so strict rules, regarding clothing style, for example. In our school we don’t have any school uniforms so the students may wear almost whatever they want. The only thing they are not allowed to wear is clothes that show racist nazi propaganda, or advertizing drogs, alcohol or weapons. The students can also dye their hair or have any hairstyle they want.

3. fashion There are quite a lot of different styles in my school. Not long time ago was it quite modern with shirts and pants with high waist. Now it’s modern with big rings, necklaces and earrings with feathers, baggy clothes and blouses that are a bit transparent and pants that are a bit worn out or torn. The shoes converse are also popular. I don’t have any special style that sticks out, but I use to were jeans with a sweater, a shirt or a t- shirt with a cardigan. I like to have accessories to my clothes, like bracelets, necklaces, earrings or rings. I also have a pair of light pink converse that I like very much.

4. SPARE TIME On my sparetime I use to: be with my friends, do my homeworks, work out at ”Friskis&Svettis”, watch tv, listen to music, play on my flute, sail and much more. In my class, many people that go in a sport. The most common sport is football, but floorball, horse riding, swimming and handball are quite common to. I think that youngsters have pretty much sparetime and thats good. But alot of sparetime goes to homeworks. And I also sail once a week (but not in winter ofcourse), goes to ”Friskis&Svettis” twice a week, have lessions in the flute two times a week and on weekends I use to be with my friends. We use to go shopping in the city, watch a movie or just hang out.

5. COMMUNICATION Most teenagers in my school have a mobile phone. There are many text messages, facebook, games and blogs. I have a blog and I think it’s fun to write on it. Tv is very common among the young as well as videogames, movies and tv series. Mostly boys in my class play on their computers and video games. I mostly watch tv, movies, blogs or texting with my friends. When I watch tv I use to look on a tv serie called ”Pretty little liars.” It’s about four girls that trying to solve the murder of their friend. I also like the tv show ”Friends”. Horror movies and comedies are also my favorites.

6. Youth culture in Spain When I was in Spain on the comenius project I saw how the youths had it there, in their schools, and how they were. They were very friendly and toughtful, but they was also very chatty. And they dont study as many languages in Spain as we do here in Sweden. They only study English and if you want you can study French or Italian. Meanwhile we have the opportunity to study Spanish, German, French and Italian. The Spanish youths also liked to party…a lot! I think that they that the swedish peoples are very boring. I may be wrong abaut it though.
