When I went to Italy to see my family the first thing that came to mind was food,art,culture and love. Most people belive the sterotype that Italians are extremelly loud. My family falls in line with this particular sterotype! My family is not only known for being loud they are also very wild,adventurous and shockingly sponteneous. All factors which have animated my life and allowed it to be vastly more intresting. Traditionally, in Italy, families are tought to be close,but what fluctuates amongst familes,is the amount of care is infinte and has impacted my life immersly.

The role of religion in Italy was and still is Catholic. Christmas is a big Holiday for all Italians because of Catholicism. Starting in the middle of December the preperation of Christmas starts, the first Holiday "Immacolata Concezione" she is a saint they celibrate during Christmas.

    How are Americans supposed to eat healthy when they don 't have time to cook for themselves? It is no wonder that our nation has the majority of people eating fast food as standard diet. This should be a driving force for food production industries to focus more on quality and impact on the earth and our health, rather than making cheaper, higher calorie, higher sugar processed products.…

    In the reading “Escape from the Western Diet” Michael Pollan claims that the western diet is food that is fast, cheap, and easy which is one of the leading reasons for the rising obesity rates in North America. Therefore in order to maintain a heathy lifestyle we need to invest more time, money, and effort in preparing our meals. I agree with the claim Pollan states because fast, cheap, and easy food is usually processed food from fast food restaurants. Processed food contains high levels of fat, sugar, and salt and is filled with preservatives. North Americans should start investing their money into the food that is fueling their bodies. by buying fresh produce, fresh meat, and wholesome grains you have full control knowing what it…

    Baseball is popular game that is played in nine innings, they have a beginning where they get warmed up, a middle where they score and celebrate, and an end which is slowing down until the end of the game is called. In the play Fences by August Wilson baseball is a major theme. The play is written in nine acts just like a baseball game, it also has high points like getting home runs, and it also has downs like every baseball game has. The main character Troy Maxson was a hitter for the Negro leagues, he was an outstanding player. Troy’s life is somewhat like playing a game of baseball, he started out young which would be his beginning, he then played in the major ‘negro’ league which is his middle and climax, and his end of the game is where the story takes place and the game is called at the end of his life.…

    The United States is widely known as a giant melting pot of different cultures and beliefs. These different cultures have all brought interesting and unknown practices with them. Basketball, Football, and Baseball all originated from the United States, but the world’s most popular game, Soccer, originates from England and has been a sleeping giant in America for far too long. The U.S. Men’s National team is in shambles, but contrary to popular belief, the change needs to come from underneath. The soccer system in America needs to eliminate the class issue, develop better young players, and improve coaching all around.…

    These ideas that I have been taught throughout my life are not always the most useful, but certainly brings a uniqueness to my life. The culture I grew up around seems to always find a way into my daily life without thought or reason. I learned that family is honored, conversation is enjoyed, and food is always accompanying. My great grandmother has always said “the important goal is not to stress over success but simply to live a good life and from there, success will find its way” (Del Signore). This is a lesson I’ll never forget. Italians are proud to be Italians. I am no exception. In a society where many people have forgotten their heritage, I have taken great pride in my background and find it a joy to preserve and acknowledge my culture. Being Italian goes beyond the pasta dinners and bocce ball games. My Italian culture is what sets me apart from others. Who I am is the result of my culture as well as family and is something I try to live by and show every…

Of the many lessons to be learned, this was always number one and my family demonstrated this each and every day. I loved the Sunday dinners, the long-lasting family traditions, holidays,…

    Upon my arriving in Italy I realized I was stepping into an unknown culture. However, after a few weeks of living in Italy I began to fall in love with the language and even though I often fail at speaking the language, I continue to try and become fluent. There is the simplistic cuisine; the wine, the climate, the history, the architecture, the emphasis on family, the generosity of friends, and more generally: the carefree approach “to” life- whereby Italy measures success in humanist rather than fiscal terms, priding itself on the taste of the pasta rather than the efficiency of their work.…
