Cultural Identity Do you celebrate any holidays almost the same way each year? In my case, I celebrate Christmas Eve and Christmas day the same way once a year. It is a time that I get to see and spend time with many members of my family that I do not usually get to see any other time of the year.

In my fourth grade classroom if you did something extra special you get to pick a prize out of a big bucket filled with…

I think culture is one of the more important aspects of society, if not the most important. Conley, in chapter three, redefined my views on culture and how regulated it is in everyones lives. Conley also writes about the media’s influence in our everyday world and how inclined we are, as a country, to live up to their expectations. “Culture is the sum of the social categories and concepts we recognize in addition to our beliefs, behaviors (except instinctual ones), and practices” (Conley).…

When the Brand New Christmas time movie “the Polar express” came out on November 10, 2004, I really had an urge to go see it in theaters. It was about a week after the release date and I said to my mom “can we go see the polar express?” she said “wait until your cousins come on Friday down for thanksgiving”. So I waited for the time they came always seeing the commercial on TV, making me want to see it more and more. So when the time came for my cousins to come it felt like it had been years. My…
