Who am I ?.. there’s too much words to describe myself as, but basically I’m an average 18 year old whose just trying to live life and overcome obstacles that come my way. I would say I’m a hard worker and an independent individual. I’ve been working nonstop ever since my sophomore year in high school. Rarely do I ask my parents for money and they do not have to worry about me. I have a carefree personality and I love cracking jokes.
My top 3 concerns about my freshman year in Baruch is probably the same as everyone else’s. One of which is to aim for that 4.0 gpa. I procrastinated quite a lot during my high school years so I hope to stay away from that, but obviously its not working because I’m doing this blog post very last minute. Another concern is trying to fit in in Baruch and getting more involved with clubs and activities Baruch has to offer.
I think my experiences in Baruch college will be very different from high school. First is because of the freedom we are allowed. We can choose to attend classes because sometimes the professors do not even know the student’s name. In high school, the teachers always “baby” you and remind you of assignments that are due, but in college your basically on your own. So far, I find it quite hard to make friends in Baruch. It’s such a large college compared to high school where you recognized everyone by face.
Basically, as of now, I’m just trying to complete my core courses and build up my GPA. After this first year in Baruch, I hope to be more mature, organized, and responsible.’
