What do I think who I am?
In my wallet, I
have several shopper’s membership cards, one Debit card, two student ID cards,
and health insurance card. Also, I have a memo that is, some of emergence phone
numbers.
Let me see, what
is my identity from my wallet’s items? Based on my wallet, I like to buy
grocery at the Wegamans and sometimes at the CVS either. In addition, I am
interested in a Health food so I usually go to the GNC to buy vitamins and some
health foods. I am very serious to choose some food for myself that I consider
organic and fresh food. I really enjoy watching movie but that have to spend
much money. However, when I have their membership, I can have a little discount
so that is good for me. I am not using a credit card to buy something but I am
using a Chase Debit Card because I don’t have enough credit record in the U.S. In
addition, I am a PhD student and a language leaner at different school. That is
why I have two students ID cards. As a student, I must have a health insurance
and I can proof my insurance from my health insurance card. In hence, because I
am international student, I may need someone’s helps in the emergency so I have
several phone number in my wallet.
I think I can’t
explain all of me from my wallet’s items but I could briefly see myself. Unfortunately, I don’t have many items in my
wallet. If I lose my wallet and find it after a couple of years, I may not
figure out current myself. In addition, if someone fined my wallet, he/she is
unable to know about me. He/she might imagine me who likes healthy food, must
be hypochondriasis, and love a watching movie. In addition they may wonder why
I have two student’s IDs but they can guess that I am PhD student. I think they
could imagine my personality and values but that can’t represent whole or true me.
I agree with you that wallet or purse can not reveal our personality. However, it may show some signs of our life.
ReplyDeleteBy the way I wonder why you use "hypochondriasis" especially, I searched the internet to see what does this word mean!
Thank you.
Myunghee,
ReplyDeleteA nice, reflective analysis of what we might know about you from your wallet. Based on your writing, I think I, too, might be able to surmise a few things about you, such as the value you place on health and on education.
When you used the word "hypochondriasis," I assumed you meant hypochondriac, yet I am not quite sure why someone would think you were a person who always thought they were ill or having health problems of one sort or another.
