I didnt expect much when i entered baruch, wasnt really looking forward to anything but an easy degree. But even with these low standards entering the college i feel like baruch has not met any of my expectations. I think it has to do largely because of the freshmen blocks that restrict freshmen from getting any “good” classes. My first semester….. dropped two classes and became a part time student, overall my first semester was like hell. I dont think i couldve done anything differently, i dont blame myself for my performance. I blame the professors that are unclear on what they expect from the student whether it is from the syllabus or test requirements. The only thing i learned from my first semester at baruch is that i have to work my ass off to compensate for poor teaching styles of certain professors that i will not name. Although i think the entire class knows who i am referring to. This post was used to complete an assignment, please disregard anything negative i just said. Thank you and have a nice day. Hmm 183 words, not bad.
Its 2am and im still studying.

My monologue was about the types of shoes i wore throughout my teenage years up until college. During me freshmen year of high school i didnt really have a fashion sense or any idea what to wear. I bought my first pair of Nike airforces that were about eighty dollars and thought i would fit in. The thing was that the whole outfit i wore with the shoes simply did not fit and i felt somewhat insecure. I started to buy more expensive shoes as i grew up. The shoes i wore simply matched what kind of activity i was doing at that time of my life. Skateboarding, i bought Nike SBs, Basketball, i bought jordans, and jogging i bought lots of lightweight shoes. In college i could care less about the shoes i wear, i am not trying to fit in nor am i trying to make an impression. I simply do my own thing. Being carefree is wonderful =]
hmmm Jordans.
Lots of expensive skateboarding shoes. Owned a few before i sold them =\
This is my ideal room. I could live there and life would be great.(this was actually a ebay sale that went for $9,000 plus or minus a few thousand.

This is soo late….

I think im an AVERAGE 6ft tall male asian with a pretty friendly personality.
Three concerns i have about my freshmen year are
1.Passing Freshmen Seminar. ( Im posting my blog late . hope i dont fail)
2.Staying awake during anthropology. (Nice profeseur but 3 hours is way to long for a single class)
3.Passing Math. (She can win an award for talking that fast.)
I think the baruch college offers more activities and more internships for any student to do during their free time. It gives students a time and place to explore different career choices. My high school offered some of that but it was limited to honor students.
College has already changed me and i think it will continue to change me over the course of my freshmen year. I think ive already become more independent and self motivated. I no longer need to address teachers about why i didnt complete an assignment. I think ive become more outgoing as well. If you dont ask questions or talk to people i think college would be a pretty dam boring place to be.
Hmm i didnt quite get to five hundred words. I guess ill talk about my daily routine at baruch in between classes. Whenever i have a short break i usually head to the cafeteria to get some food. Their foods are pretty dam expensive so dont go there unless your about to starve to death. On two-three hour breaks i head to the gym area and kinda wander around until i find a sport to play( usually basketball or handball). After im done i pretty much wander around looking at posters and fliers about clubs and other stuff that seem intresting.
Ok im done.
