Ohayo~
Ohayo mina~ I’m Grace Li. As you can probably tell from the japanese, I am an anime fan. I don’t like the dubbed versions that the Americans has translated though, it’s horrible compared to that of the Japanese. Anyway, on to the questions!
Well, to be honest, I am a shy girl, what else is there? I prefer typing over speaking, but that doesn’t mean I’m anti-social! I can be quiet and seemingly boring, but once I get to know you, you’ll be seeing a different side of me. I also am a tomboy to a certain extent, I’ll admit. I don’t really care much about fashion or shopping, but I’m not athletic either. I would rather go to a bookstore than shop 24/7, let’s just go with that.
My top 3 concerns would probably have something to do with grades or just the classes. My first one would have to do with my laziness. I get extremely lazy when the work is boring. My tend to sway away from my task if it doesn’t keep my attention…Not a very good idea for an undergraduate student, especially since I’m a freshman. I also prefer games over schoolwork, probably because they keep my entertained more than schoolwork. The second concern would be my Business Law class. For some reason, I couldn’t grasp anything in the textbook! Perhaps it’s because law never intersted me, or it’s because the textbook itself is boring, or it’s a combination of both. *sighs* I envy my friends who seem to understand this better than I do~ Finally, extracirricular activities. Did I even spell that right? All schools want their undergraduates, or the equivalent of, to join clubs and teams and all kinds of things. Well, what if the student lives far away from the school? Shouldn’t schools realize that some students just couldn’t afford to join one because of the time restraints? My high school certainly didn’t, which surely showed up in my resume. But I will say that Baruch did a great job creating club hours, it certainly gave more time for the undergraduates to join a club or a team.
Well, like I said above, Baruch has put students first over itself (at least more than my high school ever did). College is also more about learning to find yourself than just completing the assigned courses. I have to learn how to manage my time doing papers and studying for upcoming exams while trying to find time for myself. The professors here at Baruch are also more sophisticated; at least most of them know what they were teaching. They took more pride into advising and teaching their students more than my previous school ever did.
My first year at college would probably make me more responsible and less childish, or so I hope. To be honest, I don’t know what will happen to me during my first year. I never actually thought about it. Better to leave that to the future and worry about now, that’s what I think, or maybe it’s because I want to eat while I’m typing this. xDD
