I feel that my experience at Baruch has lived up to my expectations. I expected to be challenged by my class and that’s exactly what happened. I believe that this semester went well. I did have difficulties at times but I started to do better after studying more.If there was one thing I could do differently this semester it would be to study more for math. Although so far It looks like I’ll pass I think it would have been better if I got higher grades on my previous tests. Since coming to Baruch I have become more conscious of due dates and have started to procrastinate less.

“Who are you?” is a question that doesn’t have a simple answer.

Stating the kind of person you are and what you’ve done is easy.

But “who you are” is defined with your every action and choice.

I am a good student who likes video games and art.

I am part Irish and part Italian.

I know the kind of person I’ve been.

I  know the kind of person I want to be.

“Who you are” is constantly changing making any attempt to answer “who you are?” almost impossible.

My name is Nick DiChiara and I am a freshman currently enrolled at Baruch College. When One is asked who they think they are they can give many answers. I am an eighteen years old boy who can sometimes be a bit nervous when doing new things. I currently live on long Island with my parents and my older brother and I also have a dog. I think of my self as being a bit serious and also being a little bit shy. I enjoy playing video games and i enjoy art. I also like to think of myself as being a good student. As far as my appearance goes I’m average height and look like any ordinary college student but I’m someone who is happy with how I look and wouldn’t change a thing. A feel all these things help to accurately describe who I am.

I definitely have a few concerns about my freshman year at Baruch college. One of those concerns is struggling with my class work. I do not want to fall behind in my classes and possibly even failing. I suppose if this ever happens all have to ask for help and i will manage to pass but it still scares me. Another one of my concerns is not liking my professors. What I mean is I hope that I do not have any difficulty because of a professors teaching methods. I am also concerned that I might have trouble with math because that has always been the subject I was worst at and I don’t want to fail.

So far my experiences at Baruch college have definitely different from what I was used to in high school. Back in high school I’d drive to school and be there in five minutes. But now I have to take a train to Penn station and walk to school which takes about an hour and a half. That is definitely something that will take some time to get used to. Its also a new experience to have a much different schedule every other day. One day I have two classes and get out by 12 and on another day I have three classes and get to leave at two. In high school I’d have the same classes everyday at the same time. College also requires more effort for me than high school.

I am sure that my first year at Baruch college will end up changing me. At the end of the year I’ll probably be a bit less of a procrastinator after I get used to handing in work by a certain date. I also think that I will become a bit more aware of those deadlines and check to see what work i may have due every single day. I beleve that this first year will change me by giving me some idea as to what type of major i may want to pursue later in college. I’m sure that there are many other ways that college will change me but i can’t predict them.
