Sad, Sad Larry

My first semester experience at Baruch for the most part lived up to my expectations.  I liked majority of my professors and didn’t have trouble in any of my classes.  What did exceed my expectations was the amount of cool, down to earth, nice people I was able to meet in this LC.  First coming into Baruch I thought it was going to be a very anti-social environment and just be surrounded by a bunch of rude Asian robots (no offense ;).  But I’m happy to be proven wrong by this LC.  Being apart of this LC really made the transition from high school to college much easier and comforting.

This first semester at Baruch so far has gone well, even though the worst is to come (finals).  Everything went well so far except for one thing, registration.  Registration was by far the worst experience in Baruch so far.  I had made like 4 schedules and got closed out of all my class because I was one of the last to register.  But in the end it all worked out.  But the best thing was meeting new people that I hope to stay in touch with even if we never have a class together again, which I would think is highly unlikely cause we are all practically fighting for the same classes (all business school people).

If I could change anything this semester I would have liked to have tried harder, put more effort into classes.  Also, ANYTHING that I could do that would give me priority registration because for me registration was pure chaos.  I also would have liked to have found a club of my interest, perhaps something to do with food or rock music (not archery, that was horrible).

I don’t think I changed much since i started at Baruch.  If anything, I definitely don’t go out as often as used to.  I also learned a few lessons on time management and how procrastination really kills you.  But most important is, coming into Baruch I had no knowledge or experience on how things would work out.  I was nervous and scared about whether I had made the right decision to go here.  But now I feel much more prepared and ready to take on next semester, even though I am still unsure of my decision or what I am going to do with my life.  I know I wont end up like sad, sad Larry though…

Just to end with some humor
