your identity in the 21st century

My identity in the 21st century

Living in the 21st century every thing is done using technology. I cannot be defined as a girl who depends on technology for everything. Instead of being on the computer I volunteer for different things. I walk for different causes such as cystic fibrosis and breast cancer. These walk make me feel like great because I'm helping someone who needs it. In the summer I volunteer at a daycare. Being around little kids makes me feel so happy because every time they learn something I feel like im doing a good thing, and when their faces light up and it makes me happy to see them so excited and proud. I love helping people because it makes me feel like this is what I'm supposed to do in my life, and when i do i feel like that i know that i am doing something right. I also volunteer at school for things such as open house, shows, and orientations. I have many nationalities, but my main nationality is Puerto Rican. Many people are surprised to find out that i am Puerto Rican because I do not look it. the only thing about me that is Puerto Rican is my hair and eye color. Some of my other nationalities are Italian, Irish, Polish, Dutch and some more. My parents are happily married, and having me as their oldest they depend on me to set examples for my two brothers and my baby sister. My favorite thing to do is spend time with my family. My family are the people that I can depend on no matter what. i always look forward to having the whole family together on holidays and birthdays. when im around my family im not afraid to be myself because i know i wont be judged. i always laugh when I'm around my family, and since both of my parents came from large families things can get a little crazy, but thats okay with me.
