Hello! My name is Nathan Qiu and I am taking ENG 2850 with the rest of you guys. I am currently a sophomore at Baruch. Most of you guys have probably not seen me around yet, because I currently have the flu.
I am from Brooklyn and lived in Brooklyn my whole life. My parents came from China and moved here so I would have a better life. They want me to be as successful as I possibly can be, so I try my best and do everything for them. I am absolutely grateful for what they have done for me, as I would not be the person I am today if they weren’t here for me.
One thing I enjoy in my free time is playing sports with my friends. I really enjoy playing basketball with my friends even though I may not be the best at it. I normally sit near the three-point line and wait for them to pass me the ball. I also play lacrosse. A fun fact about me is that I played lacrosse in high school. I started lacrosse in high school and I somehow became a captain my senior year. Another thing I enjoy is playing video games with my friends. I find it so enjoyable that my friends and I can do something even when we are stuck at home, and not able to go out.
As for my future, I truthfully have no idea what I am going to do. I just hope that if I take it one step at a time, I will be able to become successful and live a life that I would enjoy.
Hello everybody, my name is Stewart Deleon. I am a sophomore and my major is Finance. I want to become a Product Manager one day. I became interested in becoming a Product Manager because of my friend who is in tech told me I might be good at it; I did some research and will thinks it will be a perfect for me in the future.
I was born and raised in Queen, and my ethnicity is Dominican. I grew up in a part of Queens where everybody was only hispanic; I haven’t really talked to many other cultures until coming to Baruch. My favorite part of Baruch is the diversity and how open everybody is to talk about their personal cultures and religion.
My favorite things to do are play basketball and play video games. I also enjoy citibiking in Central Park and finding spots to hang out. I like to explore and find spots to hang out with friends anywhere I go. Even in Baruch I have explored and found some good spots that I only go to with my close friends. I also love driving late at night while listening to music.
Hi Nathan. Hope you feel better soon!
Hi Nathan! I am also a sophomore. My parents are immigrants as well, so I can definitely relate to your goals of wanting to become successful for them and wanting to make them proud.
