I believe I am a person with a lot of different traits. I’m a worrier, funny, kind and cool to be around. But I’m not perfect, like everyone I have some faults. I get lazy sometimes, and I have a bad temper especially with my family. My best quality as a person is being there for people. I don’t like seeing people being upset, so I’m always willing to talk and try to cheer people up. Also, I love dogs and I’m currently employed at The Pet Company.
College is very stressful and I have many concerns being a freshman about Baruch. My number one concern is failing or not achieving good grades. My biggest fear in life is failure which is why I’m nervous about doing well. Another concern of mind is just being able to manage my time with school and studying. I have a lot of commitments other than school such as work, friends, and my girlfriend. I fear that I may get to stress and start falling behind. My last concern about Baruch College is graduating in four years. I know many students do not graduate in four years but this is my goal. I don’t if i will be able to handle the course loads and this may cause me to take maybe five years to graduate.
Baruch experiences will be totally different then the experiences in high school. Baruch has some many different cultures and it’s going to be interesting meet people from so many different ethnic backgrounds. Also, the experience I’ll have from classes will prepare me for the work force. Unlike in high school, were your more laid back because you still have time before your out in the world.
Just my first month in at Baruch and I can see myself starting to change. I more hardworking, I’m always reading for my classes and trying to do my work earlier. Also, I feel more responsible because in college it’s all on you and you don’t have your parents their to do everything for you anymore. These are just a few changes that I have already seen in myself and hopefully I will have more changes that are good.
