Journal #1: Where Have You Been And Where Are You Going?

Well, to say that this blog will be exciting will definitely not be the case.

As it is, my summer has been quite unproductive. Other than lying around at home and checking facebook on the regular, I’ve been going around different places in the city with friends. Shopping, of course, has become an addiction during the course of my summer, as a result of extreme boredom :(

Anyways, I’m not exactly sure what experiences have made me into the person I am today. That’s usually something I’d have to ask my friends and family because talking about yourself is one of the biggest challenges I have (which also explains why I haven’t started composing my job resume yet -__-) I guess on a general basis, my environment has definitely shaped who I am. I’m part of a middle-class family,  and I live in a two-bedroom apartment with my folks. I’m an only child too, by the way. That’s mostly why I’m independent to a certain extent. Since I never had a sibling a play with, and since my parents were (and still are) busy with work, my friends have influenced me in both thought and action.

I suppose I have been ignorant of many things in the past. Such as music. But since I’ve come from such a diverse school (you guessed it, Brooklyn Tech class of ’10 yeahhh!), I’ve been exposed to so many different values and beliefs. I used to hate every type of music except rock. However, after knowing the kind of people I did, I developed a newfound addiction to R&B, Pop, Hindi, and even Korean music! Obviously, my friends and classmates have had a profound effect on my tastes. I’ve went through many experiences, both good and bad, and those experiences have definitely made me into a stronger person.

College…is not much different from high school. I’m seeing way too many people from high school, and it’s way too crowded, and I’m taking classes that has nothing to do with my intended major. And since Baruch is a commuter school, there aren’t any grassy fields or students chilling under the shade which is what I’ve been envisioning college as :( (too much tv!!) Well, at least I got a MacBook haha

As a college student, I expect to become more mature and independent. We’re supposed to fend for ourselves in a few years, so I hope I can learn to take care of myself (no more free food ah!) I hope I can keep my grades up as high as possible (senioritis is gone!!) and not procrastinate…too much! Maybe I’ll even meet some potential best friends in the future (or maybe I already did..hmm..) Anyways, I hope it’ll be a good first semester and not too many all-nighters. Ahhh!
