The Registration Workshop was really informative on what classes I should take and where to go if I need assistance. Since I had to register the next day, I paid careful attention to what she was saying. I’m pretty sure of which classes I’m going to be taking in the Fall Semester of 2011. I also figured out what the prerequisites for some courses are, and how many credits I need for the degree I’m pursuing.
The Rubin Museum was actually very nice. I did not expect that at all or else I would have gone there when I could have spent more time. One thing that I like was the section with Buddha. The term ‘buddha’ means ‘awakened’ or ‘enlightened.’ I liked that because I read the book Siddhartha in 9th grade and I really liked it. When I saw the Buddha on the wall I thought about what it would take to wake me up and make me start trying harder in school. I need some sort of motivation; something to drive me. I also like the fact that Serena did not know where Tibet was and she was so excited when she found out that it was right near China. I’m really interested with photography so when I saw the photos of Times Square, I just stared at it for a while, trying to picture how it could have looked different from what it is today. I think I’ll visit the museum again because I really liked it.

My first semester at Baruch College started out really well. It’s definitely what I expected and maybe a little more. I think I did alright with my grades for this semester. I could have done better if I put in some more work instead of slacking off. If I had to do it differently I wouldn’t do all my homework and papers the night before. I said that when I started but it didn’t stick in my head. So I don’t think I’ve really changed much. I’m still procrastinating as much as ever and I need some motivation!
