1. Their wasnt really anything special when I visited the rubin museum.  Their wasnt that many people their besides a group of highschool kids that were probably on a field trip.  Overall nothing was interesting in that museum, I just ended up looking around to see if their were anything cool, but overall their was nothing interesting.

2. I learned a couple of things at the workshop like the resumes, but I already had one by the time I went their.  But their were things that were useful that I learned like what to list on our resumes while we are in college.  Overall i think that the workshop was kind of useful.

3.  When I found out that I got accepted by Baruch I didnt really expect much.  I knew that I was gonna be doing the same things that I am doing now before I went to Baruch.  So I really didnt expect much.  I am thinking about transferring out but since I want to major in buisness and knowing that Baruch is a really good buisness school I am yet deciding on it.

I think my semester in Baruch went alright, but the work was hard for me, but I tried my best to achieve a good grade.  I am going to try my best to get a good grade when I take the final exams.

I wouldnt really do anything different because I did try my best.  I have been studying for exams and stuff but when it gets to the point where I take the exam I tend to forget everything which was my main problem.

One thing I learned during this semester was basically managing everything on my own without any help from my parents.

My name is Chris Ahn and I am a Korean American.  Im from westchester county, NY but right now I live in the Bronx with my brother.  Im usually not quiet like I am in school because I am always tired because I dont get enough sleep.   I think that the main reason why I dont participate much in class is because I am always tired.  My hobbies are music,  watching tv, chilling with my friends, going to parties and hitting up the bars.  I am right now majoring buisness in Baruch but I aspire to be in the music industry one day.  I hope that I am succesful one day especially at a young age before I hit my thirties.

A. Im just a regular kid going to college to get a degree.  Im also korean, and thts about it.

B. My first concern about freshman year is trying to stay focused in class.  In highschool I never really paid much attention in class and that really screwed me up so Im gonna have to try to pay attention to what the teacher says.  My second concern is to try to not fail.  Im really worried that I am going to fail a course and to prevent that I will probably have to study hard.  My third concern is getting too much work from each course.

C. I dont think going to Baruch is that much different than going to highschool.  Besides the fact that I have to take the train and bus everyday and my commute is about an hour.  The only difference is that I used to drive to my highschool everyday and it was a 5 min.  Now that I dont have a car anymore because it broke down I cant drive to school.  Also teachers dont call your parents about grades here, everything is based on my responsibility.  All they do is teach and everything else you have to do on your own.  Transportation and teachers are really the only difference between highschool and college everything else is basically the same.

D. I dont think that going to college is going to change me to much as a person, but I think it will help me be more independent.  Going to college in the city makes me more independent now because I dont live with my parents anymore and have my own place which takes alot of responsibility and Im still adjusting to it.  I think doing everything on my own now, I think by the end of this year I will be more responsible.
