Cultural Identity

My name is Cecilia, and I came from Guangzhou, China. One of the pictures in the middle of the poster shows the location where I was born in. I didn’t post Chinese culture’s picture because there are some things that I usually do no matter if I was in China or in the U.S. For instance, from this picture- taste of Chicago, I would attend this event every year to enjoy the delicious foods like turkey, ice-cream with cakes. On the other hand, when I was in china, I would join this same kind of event also because Chinese food has a variety of cuisines. I am able to taste a lot of creative dishes through this kind of event. Another picture in my poster is McDonalds, how familiar that name is! This is one of the most popular franchise fast food restaurants, and it originally established from the U.S. In Chicago, I almost go to McDonalds to order hamburgers for lunch every time when I finished my classes. In China, having McDonald’s meal has always been my first choice when I went shopping with my friends. There are a lot of McDonalds’ stores that can be found which makes it so famous and convenient for their customers. Apple brand has not only influenced America’s business, but it has also influenced China’s business. I am using an I-phone and I-pod in Chicago. Before I came to the U.S, I was using apple’s computer. My life has always been connected with Chinese culture and American culture.
