LEARNING COMMUNITY 13

I must’ve done something really stupid for someone to be asking ”who do you think you are?” I think that I’m a hermit that likes to be with himself. Focusing on just the things I like and bumming out, much like a bohemian. I love my hobbies and I will put effort into them. Unfortunately the same can’t be said for school work, which brings me to my anxieties. I’m afraid that I will not be able to shake off my old habits from high school, things like laziness, procrastination, and no motivation. Another concern that I have is not growing taller, I really feel that I haven’t physically matured as much as my mind did and that might prove to be a hurdle I must cross. The final concern I have is not making much of my first year at Baruch. High School flew by so quickly, I looked back and I held nothing. It was when the woman who cuts my hair told me that high school is supposed to be the best years of your life but she was busy working part time to make any memories. After hearing that I was depressed, and thought that there must be something I could do to make my time at Baruch more enjoyable. So in order to ease my anxieties I am not repeating what I did in high school. I will join a club and become vice president of it, or make my own. Hopefully I would also find something to motivate myself so I could excel in my academic areas. If there was a way to mold my passion into other areas of my life. If all goes well I think that I will come out of freshman year as a more responsible and outgoing person, not to mention taller.
