Hello everyone in ENG 2850, My name is XiaoLin. For those who find it difficult to pronounce my name, you can also refer to me as Charlene. My major was International Business and I transferred to psychology lately. I took a three-semester-gap and returned to Baruch in Summer 2023, therefore it’s my third year in Baruch but I am still a sophomore.
I moved to the US at the age of 12 with my mother. It’s my tenth year living in New York. During vacations, I usually travel to other countries for the first half and spend the second half to take a good rest in the city. I often carry a book, a pen, and a notebook around the city to visit new parks, museums, coffee shops, and restaurants. I enjoyed reading at different places and writing down my feelings at the time. Being alone is my important source of inspiration for life.
Also, I have hobbies other than staying with paper and books. Hanging out with friends, listening to music, playing piano and guitar, and playing games (mostly on PS5 and Switch) are my other habits. If anyone has the same habits and looking for friends, you could reach out to me.
For those who are interested, I am a Pisces, and my MBTI (personality type) is INFP.
I am looking forward to spending this beautiful semester with all of you!
