If one simply asks a person, “Who do you think you are?” of course there will never be one definite answer. My past experience ever since I was born has shaped me into the Kenny Tsang that I am now. However, going to Baruch College is a new experience, one that will bring forth a new me.

I am a Chinese-American 18 year old boy, who is currently attending Baruch College. I am a graduate of Brooklyn Technical High School. When people get to know me, I believe I am very outgoing, loud and funny. However, I feel the need to be quiet whenever I am around people that I am not familiar with. I love to laugh until I run out of breath. I always play my hardest, whether it is in basketball, mathematics or a staring contest. I think I am a good person reader, which makes me a caring person. With ease, I can tell if someone needs help or is sad and I give them aid. I am studious when it is necessary, but carefree otherwise. Overall, I think I am an awesome person.

My experience in Baruch College will be different than high school because of my schedule. In high school, I had an 8-2:45 schedule every day with the same classes, but in Baruch I have less classes and they are every other day. Therefore, I have a lot more time to give to myself after classes. My first year of college already changed me because I have been very studious and hard working even with the first few weeks of college. There might be a chance that I will transfer schools colleges, but even if I am not, I feel the need to work hard because of all the money spent for just one semester.

My main concerns about my freshman year at Baruch College is probably getting good grades, adjusting to college life and breaking the barrier between friends and strangers. These three concerns arise from my past experiences, such as procrastinating, walking into a classroom thinking everything will be okay, and growing up to be a quiet and shy person. In high school, I had always procrastinated, but everything came out fine. I am afraid that I will become too comfortable in Baruch and begin to procrastinate once again. In high school, the curriculum was very straight-forward, so all I had to do was read certain chapters of a textbook to understand the day’s lesson, or everything I needed to know for an exam. Entering a new environment alone is a new experience for me, and just the thought of that has changed my mentality. Let’s just hope I don’t get too comfortable and stray to my high school ways.
