Introductory Post: Matthew Missud

Hey Guys! So…I am extremely excited to start my first year at Baruch. It was a long ride here through high school, and I continuously fight through more and more long rides with the 6 train everyday. However, we all made it together. If I could tell anyone something about myself that is 100% encompassing and truthful, I would say I’m definitely an outside of the box type of guy. I never really did anything by the book growing up. I learned to play guitar, piano, bass, and drums by ear. I grew up using over-sized baseball bats and golf clubs. I never owned a video game controller with every button properly functioning…but I always found my way around things. Does that make me a renaissance man? Well, I would say that I just have a creative demeanor and outgoing tone.  As you can see in this image (WHICH happens to not be uploading to my blog post), I am soaring through the sky with my guitar. I remember taking the deepest breath right before I made that 8 foot jump off the stage. Once I landed, I finally understood what I was meant to do with my life. I am an entertainer and I amuse people…on the contrary, I would never want to make a career out of my passion. I have always felt that your passion should never be your career due to cross-firing issues such as financial stability or not being able to allocate your time efficiently. I am not worried about myself. I know that whatever I will come to face with in life, I will most definitely handle it well. I won’t mind working a 9-5 desk job, and I would not mind working in a as golf professional giving lessons. I really hope I will be the father or husband one day that will greatly benefit his family, business, and the world.
