Introduction Paragraph

Hi everyone, my name is Jiayang Li. I graduated from BMCC as a business administration student, and I’m taking a financial mathematics major at Baruch College. I born and grow up in China for my last 25 years and I made the decision to take college once again in the U.S. to make up for my regrets. I already have a business management degree, but it wasn’t really helpful for me because I was having no clue about my future. After graduation, I got a job as a store manager in a furniture store. It seems to me on the right path, very safe and stable. Without competition, my advantages, and working skills were less and less. Finally, there wasn’t any surprise, I got fired. Then, I realized that I have no idea what can I write on my resume. I have no idea to defeat the fresh graduate in the interview. I began to fear being left out of society, I need to change myself. What helped me make that decision was the movie “The Shawshank Redemption.” I felt like Andy Dufresne, who was innocent but sentenced to life in prison, tried to overturn his case but failed. Frustrated Andy did not despair, in the stormy night of lightning and thunder, hidden decades of an escape plan to let him redeem himself, regain freedom. I also need to get out of my comfort zone, challenge myself to gain my redemption. I hope I make the right choice.
