Every person has their traits that make up their identity, I know you and I do. In this blog post I wrote down important things about my identity, and my tablemates identities. So keep reading if you want to see more about our identities.
I have built up a big identity over the years, but there are three things on this list that really show who I am. The first thing is Judaism, this is because it’s my religion and I really feel passionate for it. My family is also fully Jewish so for every Jewish holiday we celebrate, and have dinner with my cousins, and family friends. We also reconnect on what has happened since we have last seen each other. The second thing is soccer. Soccer is a sport that I have known my whole life. Ever since I was born, my two older brothers surrounded me with a soccer lifestyle. They wanted me to watch and play which is what I still do to this day, and hopefully in the future. The third thing is family. If I never had a family I wouldn’t be here today. I would not be able to play sports or do anything. Family is important for everyone so they are more than deserving of being on this list. This was my list of the three things I chose and why.
I learned a few important things from my tablemates because of their identity map, but I am only stating the most important things about the three of them. The first person I interviewed was Logan. I learned that he was Jewish. It felt pretty cool to know that someone else is the same religion as me in the classroom. The second person is Isabella. I learned that she was from Venezuela. It was really interesting to me, knowing that she is from another continent and can speak a different language. The third person is Val, the thing I learned about her was that she played many different sports. Like tennis or softball this surprised me, because I never knew what sports she liked and that she even played sports. These were the facts I never knew about my tablemates, until I saw their identity maps.
This writing piece was about the important part of my tablemates and I identities. It was really fun and cool to know more about my classmates. But I still don’t know what are a few important things about your identity?
