English

Religious Affiliations:
Lutheran 
Roman Catholic

4th of July

Identify with any of these for yourself:
I identify with these for myself as time to spend with my family, which I have come to value more now as I grow older.

Harassment:
None

Identify with any other cultures:
I know this sounds weird, but being a left-handed person in a right-handed world makes me identify with the left-handed culture. (This counts, right?)

Friends:
Yes, many of my friends are of different ethnic, religious, and cultural backgrounds. For instance, celebrating Day of the Dead with my friends has become a yearly tradition.

Tension:
I have never experienced direct tension due to my ethnicity or religious upbringing, but have certainly been exposed to many new cultures and ethnicities since moving to the city for college.
