Mid november

Well i truly enjoyed my LC everyone is so different and fun to get along with, I enjoyed hanging out with them whenever i could, i can see all of them becoming successful in the future, the fun free writes will be missed and so will the funny class discussions, but i dont see us missing each other i pretty sure we will all keep in touch and hangout continuously in the future. Have i changed? probably not but ive been learning time management and have a alot more responsibilities thanks to a job. I feel like the LC helps me be more open with new people, and i enjoyed all my time with them

Rubin Museum

well i happen to be unlucky and i went on a day when it was closed , regardless it was nice from the outside i liked the architecture. In the windows i could see cool sculptures that must have taken a log time to make and showed true artistic ability. Best of all i could see a few galleries and they where eccentric and nice, funny how everything on this planet can be considered art nowadays. Overall it was fine i took a pic infront of the closed museum and then with the closed sign thinking it was ironic how my luck turned out. Overall i know i would visit it in the future. hopefully when its open

Has Baruch changed me in any way? I honestly do not think so. I feel like Baruch made me more of who I am. I was always an extroverted person and I love to talk to people. Coming to Baruch was a great opportunity to meet new friends, especially the people in our LC. I really do love our LC and the people in it. I feel like we aren’t immature like the other LC but we like to joke and have fun. I will really miss this LC next semester but Baruch made me become someone who I always was. Someone who is gullible, funny, and even loud.

My College Experience

Now that first semester is over, I felt that I learned more about the real world…Especially after registration. I cannot have everything that I wanted, and I had to sacrifice my times to make some stuff work out. I guess it’ll be worse when i graduate from college. ^^

I learned quite  bit from freshmen seminar, which I’m quite surprised about, to be honest…I actually learned how much Baruch, itself, has to offer, despite it only being a CUNY school. It made me respect this college a lot more. It’s just as the saying goes: You can’t judge  book by it’s cover!

If I had to change one thing about this experience, it would definitely be my study habits. In high school, I get away with so many things by just studying for 5 minutes. When I stepped into business law, however, that 5 minute studying would definitely not help me pass. Yeah…time management is still a top priority thing for me, and I hope it would be better as college goes on.

I really don’t know what there is to complain about Freshmen Seminar, other than the fact that it ended late. I have to get used to it, since i won’t be out until 7:15 for tues and thurs next semester…-.- Some of the workshops, such as the library visit, was a bit pointless, since we learned about the library already, but that’s fine. Overall, freshmen seminar was helpful. Good job! And I’ll miss the LC we’re in…Good times for us all!

My Dearest LC 14

While I am at work, I write all of you this message:
you have brought me tremendous joy this semester. I will miss you all in a different way. I hope that you will learn and grow from what you have obtained this semester. Wait strike that. I hope that you all will use the information provided for you inside and outside of the classroom. I want you all to appreciate what you have with each other. This is will probably the last time that you will be in a class together so take a chance to suck it up take it all in and prepare yourselves for what comes next.
You all should have my number and please in touch with each other. These friends that you have gained will follow through in college. These relationships that you have with each other are not like other ones like in high school. These are your first “adult, mature” relationships you have with one another and there shouldn’t be any reason for you to not to catch up once in a while.
Despite our rough beginning, you all now know that I am not that cold-hearted stern Peer Mentor as I stated that I was on Freshman Convocation. I wish you all the best in your future endevors. You can always bother me once in a while with smiley faces or text me with your questions and I will try get back to you as soon as possible.
You all will always have a special place in my heart and I am happy that I was your instructor and Peer Mentor this semester.

Rubin Museum

I’m not a huge fan of museums, but the Rubin Museum provided for a good time. It wasn’t like most of the other museums in the city. It had music and wasn’t as dull as the other museums. Everything in the museum, even the stairs, was very different from the standard. It was all very post-modern. I really liked how the different rooms had different themes. Even the floors were different in several rooms. My favorite part of the museum was The Monologue of Ice Series. It had many different shades of blue and white, which fascinated me. It proved that nothing ever remains intact, but memories last forever. My memory of the Rubin Museum won’t remain intact, but I will definitely remember my visit, and perhaps I’ll visit again in the future.

Mid November Blog

My first semester went fairly well. I didn’t do as well as I would have liked to in some of my classes, but I learned from my mistakes. I definitely need to focus more on my school work. With school, work, and homework, I’ve become quite busy. I rarely find time for myself. I feel like there is always something to do. For the first time in a long time, I actually have to tell people when I’m free to hang out, rather than just pick any day. I’m looking forward to the next semester. I registered for classes pretty early. I’m glad I wasn’t the only one because I would’ve been pretty confused about picking classes. I got it all done though, with only a few minor problems along the way. Next semester, I plan on focusing on my school work more. I hope to learn more through the college experience, but feel like I have learned a lot already. I learned that it can be really easy to slack off, but that it can also be fairly easy to do well when I do my homework and pay attention in class. Simple things like this can mean the difference between a C and an A. I hope I can get myself to focus more in all my classes. I’m looking forward to next semester and hope I get to meet new people, but stay close with the LC at the same time. The LC definitely made it easier to ease into college life. Baruch is a lot bigger than my high school, but the LC provides for a much friendlier and more social environment. I’m glad I chose an LC for my first semester, and can’t believe that choice was made so long ago. Looking forward to next semester!

RUBIN MUSEUM. MID-NOV. REGISTRATION

I saw alot of artistic things:) hmm most of them were religious drawings from the Asian culture. mmm most of the picures were in bright colors. They have a very very pretty interior design– stairs in the middle of the hall next to a cozy cafe and gift shop. It was very quiet through the whole exhibit. I think they can use some “peaceful” music. 😛

MID- NOVEMBER:  I learned a lot this semester. Its almost finals week and I beginning to worry:( Overall, I think this semester will be well-remembered. I wonder if its like this in other LCs. but highly doubt it 🙂 I wish I could take classes with the same people . hmp I think I’ll miss everyone ;(

REGISTRATION: The workshop was helpful but somewhat repetitive. The lady read off the website and did not take as many questions. Registration yesterday was really hectic. All the classes were closed:( and I was panicking for an hour trying to figure out everything. I really dont like my sched. :O I just cant wake up that early;( hmm I can only hope that the professors are not as strict. 

Overall, I think I am still inthe process of adapting to college. It is hectic but I guess Ill  learn to work it out. 😀

Now that we have almost finished our first semester at Baruch, i think i have seen enough to know what to expect on the road ahead. Baruch exceeded my expectations when i first entered this school because i was thinking it’ll just be like high school where we just go to class and then just hang out. However, in Baruch, everyone is part of the community and is taking part as a student and as a friend who is willing to help you out when you need it. I regret that at the end i was not able to change my habit and still procrastinated a lot. Perhaps next semester i will need to find a new way to issue this problem so i can meet the deadlines on time instead of cramming everything the night before. anyway, looking forward to the next semester at Baruch and expecting to experience something brand new.
