I am in this network here at Baruch called the Success Program. We initially got invited into this program in August 2 weeks before school. We had to attend a 3-day boot camp from 9-6. While this seemed like an unnecessary waste of time it was a great benefit to me for these past months in adjusting to college and helping me figure out my true career desire and choice. I now know a 100% that I want to go into the real estate field for my career and declare my major as a real estate major. I have had a peer counselor from the success program help me edit and revise my resume to reflect more of my skills and past experience relating to Real Estate. My peer counselor also recommended that if I had the time I should consider taking classes this summer to get my real estate agent license. He recommended I get my regular real estate license now so that in the near future I have that out of the way and I can then get my broker’s license. These tips over time has led me to do more research and find out more and learn more about all the qualifications and experience I need to get an internship during or towards the end of my sophomore year. I have now since been watching some of the real estate moguls such as Gary Cordane on YouTube that my peer mentor has recommended me to watch. Having the success program peer counselors there to assist and recommend different things to me has helped me in a positive way leading more towards my dream career. The success workshop has held 3 other general workshops to help everyone who hasn’t met with their peer counselors to help them with their resumes as well.

I went to the Ruben Museum for my Art History Class assignment with a friend of mine who was also in my class.  Admission isn’t even free anymore we actually had to pay like $5 for the admission. We went in and some guy was trying to tell us how to angle our cameras to take the pictures. Strange… Overall, I liked the theme of the museum. It was a very cool, calm temperature with a swirl staircase to go up and down the floors of the museum. This basically assisted me because I was able to learn more deeply in to what my class was based around. It showed the literal foundation of the colors and which represented them and what they meant of their deity. It gave me a good grade toward my class since I typed a paper and learned more about that topic.

The one with the human with one arm out got my attention when I was strolling around the exhibition hall. The is Buddha Shakyamuni. It was made amid the eighteenth Century in Tibet. It was painted on a shade of material. The essential shading utilized as a part of this work of art is red, green, gold, and blue. The blue shading in this work of art influences the composition look unwinding and quiet.

 

 

This is the Hindu deity, the first one I came across. Siddha Lakshmi is the Indian Goddess in this painting. The goddess is holding different things in each of her numerous arms. The video shows the different traits of the certain deities. The four hands take on the four ends of human life being: wealth, genuine desires, righteousness, and liberation from death and birth. The four arms indicate the 4 different directions in space as well as the omnipotence of the Goddess.

 

Freshman Seminar

I Recently had the opportunity to visit the Caribbean Club. The club was filled with a vibe of people from many of the different Caribbean islands ranging all the way from Dominican Republic, Grenada, Jamaica, Haiti, Trinidad, and much more islands. This club is a great club that’s open to anyone that is free and just wants to hang out or has any questions about the club or islands backgrounds. The club also had free food. They had dishes from each Caribbean island for people to try at their event as well that i also attended. There was music also nice music from their home islands playing in the background. Overall there was a nice vibe set in the room when i showed up. I easily felt welcomed and got to hang with some of their club leaders and members and relax before my next class. I look forward to participating more in the club now that I went and joined along with it. Joining a club i believe is just a way to adjust better to the school meeting new people that are generally all from the same background. it was a cool experience.This image requires alt text, but the alt text is currently blank.
