I’m just so tired of summer! I can’t wait for the weather to cool down and stay down! I love the fall season. Fall brings vibrant colors and a different kind of beauty into the world that has to do with death. Don’t you just love the brown and the yellow of the above shot? When I saw this tree, I was mesmerized and thought it was so beautiful that I had to capture it.
Who do I think I am: I don’t usually ponder on heavy topics such as this.
I’m a girl who wants to find the right location to spend my life in. I don’t intend to continue living in New York or even in the US after I graduate. New York is a great place to live if you consider the vast diversity we’re surrounded by which dramatically enhances our cultural knowledge. Aside from that, I don’t feel entirely comfortable in this city. I feel as if there is another place that will be better suited for me, a place that will make me happy – aren’t we all chasing after happiness?
Canadians are known for their hospitality. I think it would be wonderful to live amongst nice people who go out of their way to help their neighbors. Also, New Zealand is one of the best countries to live in – according to an article I read a while ago. English is the main language in both of these countries, so, they’re on top of my list.
My top three concerns: We haven’t had any tests so far. I’m a little bit anxious about the tests we will get in a few weeks. I’m also worried about passing Calculus. I think if I get past my fear (yes, I’m afraid of Math), I’ll be able to do better. It’s ironic how I received a medal in Fifth grade for doing outstanding work in Math and now I’ve been struggling with Math for the last four years.
I can’t think of a third concern right now?
My experience at Baruch as compared to my experience in high school: I caught a cold this Monday. I had a pretty horrible day on Monday from going to the doctor’s office to get my immunization form signed, going to class, and then going to work while being sick. If I was still in high school, I’d take a day off on Tuesday. I can’t recall the last time I went to school when I was sick. As a matter of fact, I can’t recall the last time I went to school for four weeks straight without missing any classes. The fact that I’ve been able to get up every morning and go to all of my classes is an accomplishment. This is a huge difference between college and high school: because I pay for my education now, I have to be in every class.
I feel like people in college are more open-minded than they were prior to college. It’s great to see people being more tolerant, opinionated, and mature.
How do I think my first year at college will change me: I’m not expecting any changes. It’d be totally awesome if I could stop procrastinating and started doing all my work on time. However, to be honest, I don’t see that happening in the near future.
