Feed-backing : Naga Riverside walk - Thick description report
To read your work is very enjoyable. Especially the report you made was creative. I just leave general feed-back here for your report.
What I appreciated
1) Creativity - Forms of report is quite unique. Therefore it was very enjoyable to read them.
I hesitated to write the comments directly to your report :)
2) Illustration - Illustration might tell more story sometime...but it needs some explanation.
3) In one report, mention local term to explain the Naga River.
As we discussed in the class, language shapes our thought. Therefore, once we try to discover the meaning of certain things, it is quite meaningful to trace the local term...
Points you can possibly improve:
1) Write more detail and meanings of people's action.
e.g. There are many garbage along the way. Most of them are plastic, packages of snacks and pet bottle. These garbage came from the houses along the riverside. I even saw some household throw the garbage bag into the Naga river.→Thin description.
For them, Naga river is symbol of religious devotion to Ina. In fact, the resident said how important Penafrancia fluvial procession is. However, their consciousness is totally cut from Naga river if it is not festivity. Therefore, it would be fair to say there are two meanings which the residents switch one to another for their convenience.
2) Pre-research
Yes, you inserted them. I could see some report connected between article you found and your final report.
P.S. After I finish checking all of your examination paper, I will deliver letters you wrote to institutions, one for City Hall and another for Bicol Islamic Education Inc.
3) Remember value-free/verstehen by Weber
So, therefore, please avoid to use "should" and "must" in your anthropological/sociological report. To detach from your ideology, belief and thoughts is first step when you write scientific report.

Documentary - you can enjoy it :)
I often watch documentary of Aljazeera.
Then, I happened to find my friend who is aboriginal was part of the documentary. Nice to see him through the documentary. This documentary made me understand what he shared when I met him.
