      What do I want to learn from my Culture?

  What I would like to earn from my Culture is the Economy. I would like to learn the economy because I really am interested in learning to see what happens, why does it happen, and who is that main person that that started it ovet there in the country that my family comes from which is Guatemala. I would like to know if there if there is sufficient farms, how do certain things affect it, and who/what causes them to affect that country. I would also like to learn more about my tradition, like the festivals that they celebrate. I would like to know who started that event, why did they start it, what is the main purpose of doing it, where in other countries do they celebrate it, when do they celebrate it, and how did they manage to put it as a crucial event. I would like to learn about these crucial aspects because I believe that if I get more involved in my culture, I would learn something new that does not befall here n the Unites States of America. This would be my most important thing that i would like to learn, who named the country Guatemala and why?

       What do I need from my Parents?

    What I need from my parents in my perspective, would have to be attention in some matter. I would need more attention because when something is happening they would just wonder off and not pay any attention to me. Either becasue they are tired or they are really busy. I would want more attention because at some point I feel left out and I just fell depressed when it comes to a situation like that. I basically do not being in that position, were im depressed. I cannot stand being in that position because I would then just think about it throughout the whole day and not want to come out of my room to doing anything around the house or go play outside with my friends. Sometimes i know why they do this because I understand the position that they are in like: working, talking to a customer, or just being busy a lot. I understand them because work can be hard for them and they have to wake up early and come back till night. I would just give them time but I just believe that I need more attention. Thats what I feel I need more from my parents.

Culture- Food, Dance, and Language

I chose these three aspects because the country were my parents are from is called Guatemala. I believe that the food in Guatemala is unique, I say unique because some food over there isn’t here in the United States of America. I really enjoy the food and would love to enjoy it everyday. I also chose dance because were my parents come from the music is called, “Kumbia.” I really enjoy dancing to this type of music because it just calms me down and makes me feel better. The language is Guatemala is called”Lengua”, which means in English “Tongue.” I don’t know how to talk this language, but I understand it when people are talking to me. I like hearing people talking this type of language because for some reason I get so into it and I just don’t want to stop the people from talking it.

Success- To set goals and achieve them.

To me success is education. I choose education because with out education you will not be able to have a great job in the future and that will really mess you up. I think education is very important because it will help you a lot throughout your future. It will help you to have a nice house, good job, and to put food in your system. It will help you be someone in the near future.
