Personal Narrative: My Interview With My Aunt Lupe

For my interview I decided to interview my aunt Lupe.She was not a teenager during the 1950’s but my aunt Lupe was born in 1958.My aunt is the only person in my family that was the closest to being born around that time.I decided to ask her a lot of questions about how it was being a teenager back then.Including pop culture and fashion.Therefore, I will also write how being a teenager is like now.

My mom handed me her phone.She was talking to my aunt and I decided to interview her.

After having a small conversation with her I decided to start the interview.The first question that I decided to ask my aunt was,’’Did you played any sports when you were a teenager?’’Her response was,’’ No I didn’t played any sports.What I always did

I questioned my aunt.‘‘Not really.There were not negative or bad people around.There was no such thing as evilness like today.’’My aunt said.Then, I decided to ask her questions about the entertainment back then.What was your favorite music?Or what type of music did you listened to?I stated.‘‘I loved to go see Rigo Tobal music group it was my favorite.I used to always listen to their music.”What about television.Did you had any favorite shows?‘‘I watched the typical shows.Mexican movies and some american movies too.”How did you communicated back then?My aunt replied,‘‘I used to use a phone.An old one not like the ones that we use today they were very different.”Where there any celebrities, I asked.My aunt said that she didnt really knew about any celebrities,she mostly spended her teenage years helping her mom clean her house.I then decided to proceed to the next question.‘‘What type of teenager where you back then and what types of groups where in your school?“I was a very shy girl and I
