Howdee Doo My name is Shanna. I'm 22 years old from Nova Scotia. I study conservation biology and animal behavior at Acadia University. Other than biology my passion is music. My favorite band of all time is Phish. I cried twice when they broke up. I also dig Zeppelin a whole lot. This is me: One thing that bothers me about younger hippies is that "hip" increasingly stands for "hipocrite". I mean, the mainstream has absorbed all of the hippie style with none of the hippie substance. The other day I was harassing my friend when he took the elevator and not the stairs for his needless waste of energy. He responded by saying, quite genuinely might I add, "Hey, I'm an environmentalist, I wear sandles and dreads!" oh my. I'm looking for some good chats and hopefully to make a few pals! Shan
Welcome! It's cool to hear some people still have the hippie spirit calling us. I think of it more as a religion or culture, than a "stereotype". Like that it's not just the clothes, but it's the attitude toward mankind and the environment, and everyone makes mistakes, so there can't be a divine one of us. I'd say more on the subject, but it might not make sense.
