Our culture



Culture is the customs of a place in the world. Such as the Israelis not eating pork. The picture above is showing a human on a computer. In today's world, our lives revolve around technology, so, the use of computers: Calculators, phones, GPS, and other things, are all part of the United States' and other developed countries cultures

Country: The culture of the United States is often defined as ignorant, fat pigs. But we are also known as a country which is involved in many things in the world. The picture above shows an example of what people think of us. Our statue of liberty is being mocked and is shown being fat and is holding a large coke and burger.

State: Colorado is known as an outdoor, active state. We like to hike, mountain bike, road bike, ski, snowboard, snowshoe, and much more. We are also known as the healthiest state. This is a picture of Tom Danielson, he is from Boulder, Colorado and he rides for the pro cycling team, Garmin-Sharp-Barracuda.



Town: I am from Manhattan Beach California. It is a surf/volleyball city, along with that, it is very wealthy. The picture above  shows a championship volleyball game. The city is famous for volleyball

Family:  My family likes to strive to achieve our best. We like to listen to both sides of an argument  Families help shape opinions and beliefs about their surroundings. The photo above is the logo for my dad's old company, Great Expectations. He founded it in 1976 and from there made a great amount of money. He has used his story to tell my brother and I that in order to be successful, we need to work hard

School: Monarch is known as a very athletic and smart school.

Friends: Within my group of friends, we are a group of deadhead, outdoorsy people who like to hike or mountain bike. I'm also part of a college group, Students for Sensible Drug Policy. The above image is a picture of the Grateful Dead logo, Steal your Face with the Colorado flag inside. It symbolizes my love for both Colorado and the Grateful Dead
