Hello! I have created this slideshow which portrays a bit of who I am. This slideshow is a representation of my fondness for my family, shopping, cooking, traveling, The Halal Guys, playing video games, bowling, and riding bicycles. The first picture displays that my family is very dear to me and that I have deep affection for them. From the image, you could observe that the women are wearing hijabs which indicates  that my family is a follower of Islam. My parents mean the world to me because they have guided me throughout my whole life and when they aren’t with me at times I feel as though some part of me is missing.

To be honest, I am a shopaholic. I enjoy shopping with friends and family. They call me crazy when they see how much I spend, but what can one do to resist the temptation of buying things. I am the type of person who will go anywhere if you mention the word “shopping.” Another thing that I love to do is cook meals and bake. I take pleasure in cooking different meals with the aid of my mother. I usually bake cookies, cakes, cupcakes, pastries, pies, pudding, and brownies. Also, I like tasting different types of food, especially spicy food. In New York City. I love eating food from The Halal Guys located on 53rd street. Even though there’s always a huge line, I still wait because their food is just too good to resist. I always look forward to eating the spicy chili sauce that they provide.

Other hobbies that I have include bowling, playing video games, and bicycling. In high school, I was co-captain of the bowling team. It was an awesome experience playing against different high schools to reach the championship every year. Additionally, I play various video games in my spare time and cycle with friends around the city or parks.

Traveling to Bangladesh is something that I relish. Every time I go there, I have a great experience. I go to several beautiful sites such as Tea Gardens and resorts. I take delight in the arguing and bargaining that takes place at shopping centers. I like learning about the experiences of the poorer people and what they do in their everyday life to survive or support their families. Overall, I hope these aspects of my life has given you an idea of a Muslim girl from the Bronx named Nishat Ahmed.
