Getting married to my husband last year was the best day of my life, however, the cultural ramifications of marriage, the LGBT community, and LDS family makes for strong feelings and interactions of identities.]]> 2017-05-29 05:13:03 UTC https://padlet.com/cody_m_adams/d0y8howghrkf/wish/174192600 cody_m_adams https://padlet.com/cody_m_adams/d0y8howghrkf/wish/174192981 I am a pianist and the cultural expectations around being a musician, looking to have a career in music, and how you interact with others when you have a talent.
I have to decide how to act with the information that I am a musician, how to express myself when performing, and many other ways with this identity.]]> 2017-05-29 05:18:51 UTC https://padlet.com/cody_m_adams/d0y8howghrkf/wish/174192981 cody_m_adams https://padlet.com/cody_m_adams/d0y8howghrkf/wish/174193962 I call myself a Christian. I have grown up LDS but am still cultivating a religious identity. Many parts of my identity conflict with each other, but being a Christian means that I believe in a deity that condescended to Earth in order to provide salvation, which allows me to have a personal relationship with Him, and continue to grow to be a better person.]]> 2017-05-29 05:30:16 UTC https://padlet.com/cody_m_adams/d0y8howghrkf/wish/174193962 cody_m_adams https://padlet.com/cody_m_adams/d0y8howghrkf/wish/174194154 Many people may not think about an analyst position in a company as having a culture, however, working in the "smart" part of a company comes with learning to under-promise and over-deliver, constantly seek ways to innovate processes, and having to prove your worth consistently.]]> 2017-05-29 05:33:40 UTC https://padlet.com/cody_m_adams/d0y8howghrkf/wish/174194154 cody_m_adams https://padlet.com/cody_m_adams/d0y8howghrkf/wish/174194556 Being a pet owner is its own culture! Not only is there a schedule of taking care of your furry friends you learn to stick to, but a culture that allows you to relate directly to other pet owners (particularly other dog owners, in my case) extremely quickly because of a shared love of dogs and other animals. Sharing stories about the personalities and quirks of our pets can be a connection non-pet owners may not quite understand!]]> 2017-05-29 05:41:44 UTC https://padlet.com/cody_m_adams/d0y8howghrkf/wish/174194556
