Where have you been? Where are you going?

I don’t have any crazy story about being born in a foreign country or traveling the world but I was born in Staten Island so I guess that’s a close second? The forgotten borough was my home whether I liked it or not. I grew up in Staten Island my whole life, living with my parents, 2 siblings, and 3 dogs. My next door neighbor’s family was a second family too. We all went on family vacations together including Disney during Christmas, a cruise to the Bahamas, trips upstate and to their beach house in Long Beach Island. My family and close friends are a huge part of my life. Once I went to high school, Staten Island Tech, I had to leave a lot of my old friends behind and I was entering a much different environment to me. I ending up making the best of it and at the end of senior year me and my best friend won cutest bffs in the yearbook! Me and my boyfriend also ended up winning prom king and queen so I can’t complain. I was finally sad to be leaving high school and moving on to college. Baruch was a similar experience, entering another unknown place and leaving a lot of my friends again. Baruch has a lot of experiences for me though and I’m expecting to go a lot of places in my future. My perfect future would consist of a finished major in Business Management so I can apply that to the Business Hospitality field, where I want to work in a resort or hotel setting. But no matter where I end up, I plan on keeping my family and friends close.
