This Is who I am Living in Hawaii all my life I grew up with the hawaiian culture all my life. Our famous dessert is the sweet haupia dish. My culture identity involves food, education, and hobbies. These things make up of who I am and how I identity myself as.
My first culture identity values is food. In my culture as a Hawaiian we always eat are Lau Lau, Poke, Sweet Potato, Haupia, Poi, Kulolo, Lomi Salmon, squid luau, chicken long rice, to our ono Kalua pig, and many more we enjoy. We don’t only eat it by ourselves but, we also love enjoying it with our beautiful ohana. My grandparents were raised as they were young to make hawaiian food and till this day we carry on the tradition of making it the old fashion way we were all taught. There are many different versions on how hawaiian food is prepared, some people like to add more ingredients, add different spices or cook it a different way. I've ate many versions of how people make their own hawaiian food but it is nothing …show more content…
In my family, they've always wanted the best for me and for my future of being successful. Not only does my family want that for me, but I also want to be successful in life independently. After graduating from high school in 2018 I plan on going into a 4 year community or university college. I’m not sure what I want a degree in yet but I know for sure that I want to graduate from college. What motivates me to go to college is cause my mom got a degree in business and she is doing an excellent job in the government for over 30 years. To see my mom do so well in her job makes me want to just be like her, she inspires me to be something great in life. Another 4 years in college won’t be that easy to push through but in the end it will be all worth it to see in life how far ahead I got. I will soon see where life takes me down the road, even though there will be a few bumps ahead I will never look back and regret one thing. Only time will
