- You may add more subtopics of cultural elements that help make up who you are. Other things to think about:
- nationality (American, American-________, maybe you're first generation American and your family is originally another nationality, like Filipino or Puerto Rican)
- religion
- family structure (some people value extended family, some people consider family more than blood-relative, etc.)
- sports you play/watch
- [parents'] jobs (sometimes this does dictate certain things about you are. For example: growing up in the US Air Force influences how I see some things in the world, incorporate certain language, personality traits, etc.)
- hobbies/Activities you participate in (School related or not, there are influences of the things you do. There's a clear culture in Speech & Debate; are you a Scout? Are you a cook/baker? Do you play particular games?)
- technology
- other things you are a fan of (are you an anime fan? Do you like a certain show or movie? Are there common traits around certain Youtubers or Influencers you admire?)
