When i first entered Baruch i had college all planned out that i will get and maintain 4.0. The only thing I had to worry about was not being sucked into any parties that will divert me from my objective.
I realize my expectations evaporated. My whole plan was reaching red alert that need to be dealt with. Classes were going real fast, teachers did not repeat themselves. It as if I was in the twilight zone or God was punishing me. I did not know what was going, i was getting C’s or D’s. The thought of me not performing well allowed me to consider to drop out of college. But I realize I made a promise to a friend and I wanted to keep my promise.
What realize the transition from high school to college was a test created by the institution to test Freshmens of their will to overcome challenges. What was my challenge was time management. I did not take the courses seriously, I did study often but as weeks go by I started making adjustment to improve myself. Everyday i see progress and I am happy of the man I becoming. College is making me aware of my surroundings and events. I realize high school their was a lot of help. College was the total opposite. It takes time to adjust.
Next semester is to apply everything I learn this semester to better improve myself.
