What expectations? To be honest, I never expected much from this place except an education. I knew the parties were not anything special and nothing else attracted me to this place. I’ve grown accustomed to it through the months and i hope my next semester is better.

My first semester didn’t go to well, in terms of grades that is. Obviously i still think i can bullshit my way through courses and thats not true. Next semester i plan to change my habits a whole lot. I made a few new friends and a bunch of acquaintances I’ll probably never say more than a “hi” to in the near future. Thats life, though, and it doesn’t really phase me too much. Overall, I’d say it went well. I wont lie, I had fun times with the LC.
What would i do different? Sorry, Jose, there’s no point in me answering this question. Whats done is done and i wont waste time on idle things.

I haven’t changed since my personality kicked in when i was maybe like five years old. All I’ve done is learned new information and how to do things differently. You learn something new everyday.
In Conclusion, I’m wrapping this up. Goodnight.

Who Shot Ya

Who am I? Merely a disappearing thought? A dream forgotten among many? Or a king…of a land far greater than ever fathomed. A king of body and mind, the ultimate authority of cells and electric impulses. Who am I, but a young man whose thoughts could not possibly be original. A single mind among seven Billion, on a rock among several trillion, in a Universe among infinite others. I am a combination of things, you see. A combination of my upbringing and all people I’ve ever come across, with a twist of originality. No, I am much more. A son, a brother, a friend, an enemy, a leader, and a follower. Your Facebook friend, and your competition in life. I am merely the love child of a resilient  sperm and an awaiting egg. I am joyous. Joyous for the opportunity to experience this life. Joyous for taste, smell, touch, love, and more. I am somewhat of a thinker, as you can tell. I am passionate, emotional, and cold when the situation calls for it. I am a contradiction and a paradox. I am hopeful, hopeful that one day i can see the world and let it see me; a footprint among ever-falling snow. I am not really free, shackled down by responsibility and ambition. I am tired, and thus i depart.

A wise man once said: ” You are what you eat” Therefore, on top of being a student, a brother, and blah, blah, blah, I think i am chocolaty, spicy, sour, and a bit crunchy. Also, I most likely go great with Ranch dressing.  Try it.
As a freshman at Baruch one of my top concerns was not being able to handle the workload. I realize now that its not that hard once you manage your time. Secondly, i was worried that i would not be making a lot of friends since everyone is a bit isolated but that also worked out and i’ve made many friends. Finally my top concern was money. I figured i wouldn’t be able to have any spending cash but i have a job now. S’all good.                                                                                                                                                            What makes my Baruch experience different from my High School one is that authority figures have stopped breathing down my neck about meaningless things. I have more freedom now and it allows me to use my time affectively. I think this is really cool and I’m very happy that i don’t have to explain myself to anyone.                                            I think my first year in College is going to make me a more responsible person. It will allow me to think for myself and help me make good decisions. I also believe that my tolerance for beverages of the adult kind will reach an all-time high. (where da parties at, Baruch?) On a serious note, though, I hope my first year in College makes me more accountable and responsible.
