Baruch honors program offers more opportunities than I can dream of in a public school. I spend four years at a CUNY campus and I was extremely surprise by the environment of Baruch, it was a wonderful surprise. It is lively and full of people here and I am trying to find my spot on this campus. But it is hard to find a place for myself in such big campus, at High School, it was easier because there was only 104 student and I was the crazy Asian girl. so who am I at Baruch? I was surprise to get accepted by the Honors program because it was extremely difficult to get in. Now that I am in the honors program, I am not sure what my role will be. But I know that I have to try my best because the worst types of failure are those who did not try. There are great amount of resource being offer to me and I cannot let those go to waste. It has only being few months since school started, but I feel like I have already change a lot and I can not see my future clearly but I hope I end up happy even if it is a desk job in a cubicle.
I’m a mother; I like to take care of other people because it gives me the feeling that I am useful. As I was growing up, I went through a phase of being a bad girl. But I was lucky to have a mentor that can help me grow out of it and become a wonderful adult. All children need a positive influence in their life, either at home or somewhere else. I hope that one day I can be a positive mentor to somebody and help him or her through life. I hope I can make a positive impact on somebody’s life like the way my mentor made an impact on mine. Maybe one day I can become a teacher, teaching a subject I love, mentoring my students, and traveling around the world. It sounds like a bright future.
