LC 14

The first five weeks of college have been…interesting. There is so much reading to do all the time. I feel like I’m being punished for not reading anything in high school. I’m falling into a pattern again. Doing everything last minute has got to change soon. And what’s up with Professor Friedman?! His laugh is so creepy. And Professor Staub is just awesome. Everything seems to be going along well. I’m having a good time. I do miss my old friends. I’m accustomed to just saying what is on my mind and…. with these guys nothing has changed. I’m comfortable enough to speak my mind already. I didn’t think that this would be the case after leaving high school. After only being in a class of 100 kids for four years I thought nothing could ever compare to that. Count me as surprised. I already find myself looking out for them as though I’ve known them for years. Maybe I’m just imagining it to be like this because I’m afraid to accept change. Or maybe this block is just plain, freaking awesome. Seeing as a lot of kids from my high school come to Baruch, I thought I would be hanging out with them a lot more than the new people I meet. But I managed to not have any classes with any of my high school friends. I look at it as a blessing in disguise. I might not have gotten to know these people so well. And as I look back to June 11^th, trying to decide between the Japanese Block or the Writing and The Law Block…well let’s just say I’m really happy that I didn’t pick the Japanese Block.

I don’t really see a difference in myself after reading my monologue. I see myself in the same light as I described in my monologue. I’ve come to better understand my peers in Freshman Seminar. When we had to choose if it was ethical or not, I saw a side of some people that I didn’t know was there. Not saying it was a bad thing; it was interesting.

I think that if you work hard toward you dream, then

Anything is possible 🙂
