In class activity

When doing this activity, the things I gave away was in this order: hair color, skin color, eye color, can’t remember, girl, and my religion (atheist/wanna be Buddhist… I don’t know how that works out but that’s what it is.) This was typical as Ms. Tholen explained. I kept my religion card because that stuff I can change and it’s me who decides what that is, and of coarse it’s a big deal to many of us. But on the other hand when I gave away the hair color so quickly It’s because I dye my hair and its not really part of my identity. Maybe if I had something like full pink hair I would keep it but I don’t it’s kind of not a big deal to me. This put in perceptive of how people that are forced in new cultures feel, even through I could never imagine how that feels, we got a teeny tiny taste. I think we keep the thing most unique about us because we want to feel like we are important. It’s nice to have something that others don’t, we feel like its ours, and it should never be taken away.
