For this assignment I chose to present eight pictures that represent who I think I am. In these eight pictures is everything I do and everything I associate myself with. My name is Partap Singh and I am an Indian American college student who has just started working towards a bachelor’s degree in economics at Baruch College. The first two pictures are based off my beliefs and my position on life. The first picture in this sequence is my mindset towards the rest of the world. Most of the time I feel that life is a game and all I have to do is persevere and eventually beat it. Although it may get extremely difficult at times all I have to do is overcome any challenge I am faced with. I believe there is no substitute for hard work and that’s why I don’t take any shortcuts in life, this is the theme of the second picture and it links back to what is said in the first picture. The next two pictures show that I not only like to work hard but I also like to play hard. I am a big user of Netflix. When I am relaxing seventy percent of the time it involves watching something on Netflix. I watch a lot of movies, documentaries and TV shows. Although Netflix has a vast amount of content it is still missing a lot, that’s where TV comes in to play. I follow a number of shows which include the big bang theory, breaking bad, Dexter, and top gear and I am a big fan of basketball. I have been watching basketball for eight years now and every year I get more and more involved in the process of following it and being a fan. The next picture is a picture of a laptop. A laptop is important to me because it represents modern technology and in this day and age everything we do is somehow connected with technology. Sometimes I feel sorry for my laptop because I don’t shut it off for weeks, that’s how integrated it is with my life. The next picture is an Indian flag; this is what represents me at my core. Although I was born here my family stems from India and everything that I do in my life is shaped around that fact. My Indian culture is the subconscious factor that pushes me to make the decisions that make.  If I was not from India I would be a totally different person, from the way I look to the way I think. The last picture is a picture of food. I am a big fan of trying new food. Whenever I buy food I try to be diverse as possible. Any time I go to buy Chinese food or Indian food I try to order something off the menu that was different that what I ate last time. All these pictures are  a summary of who I am as a person .
