The workshop has been helpful too much even though it was such a longgggg process. But i do get how to pick my courses and stuff. It explains thoroughly and I’ve learned a lot about my general courses and the requirements and things about your major or your minor. I’m still very undecided about what I want but I will get through it. I hope to get an early schedule because I have work. If i get a bad schedule that means i’ll be jobless )=

I don’t really know what a monologue is but i guess it is something about me so this is what i have written to say. My name is Maggie Liang and I am a freshman at Baruch. I came from Midwood High School and I am currently 18 right now. Life has not been so bad and neither has school. However, I am struggling in some classes but I am trying though. I am not an overachiever but I do not want to call myself an underachiever. I have to admit I was always slacking in school but I do try to keep myself up and not fail.
To be honest, life hasn’t been very interesting lately or maybe it’s just the fact that everything is better in the summer. Now that I have school and work it’s just different. I don’t see my friends everyday like i usually would but because of school and work its just once or twice a week now. But that doesn’t keep me from being antisocial or anything.
When i was younger, I used to be really shy and antisocial sort of. I can’t say I’ve completely gotten over it but it was better than before. For now, i can actually keep up a convo and actually talk a lot and a lot. Having social skills is a great thing and i hope to learn more of it. Now I knew why I was such a sad kid back then. It was because I wasn’t really much of a talker but that’s maybe why teachers liked me. I knew antisocial isnt the way to go and I will overcome that.
School is okay now and Im gonna say i will miss my block and hope to see them on my next semester classes!

I was in the audotorium on the balcony. I was sitting with my friends and yes i was honestly not paying attention but i was listening for some parts. They were talking about life and sharing their stories. It was interesting at a point because it could relate to me a little. One thing i remember them saying is that Identity is a process and we have to find out who we really are ourselves. I thought that was reallly true but i can already define myself for who i am. They also mentioned to look at life differently. I should be doing that but its not so easy to make adaptations.
One of the speakers also spoke about the definition of reality and they said how what we believe is true or not true. It drives us the choice we make. I do agree on that because people make important decisions and choices in their life and thats what brings them forward to the future. I think the workshop is a little helpful to my understandings about life.

My name is maggie. yes i like cats. but i always wanted one like garfield but i dont think they exist )=. hmm who do i think i am? I think im a very complicated and slow person. everyone else sees me as chill or laid back. Maybe its the fact im kinda of conservative but yet open at the same time. If it was a really personal question, i guess i wouldn’t be shady about it unless its that personal. i like to think of myself as complicated because no one can really figure out what i like or just figure me out generally. i guess that makes a little complicated? I see myself as kinda slow because it takes me quite a while to get some things. thats why i try to be book and street smart. 🙂

my first concern and major concern is english class. I literally dont know anything in there and i barely never do the reading. i believe not a lot of people knows whats going on in that class either so i dont know maybe its time i start listening )=
my second concern is getting to school on time. i am one of the few people thats always late. but damn i have two take like 3 trains so its not my fault )=
my last concern is prolly my lc17 buddies. i dont know all of them exactly but i like being in a class with them. i dont know if ill get used to it next semester )= since we’ll all have different schedules. ill miss them tho.

Well whats different in baruch and back at my hs, (midwood) is that the people here arent fake. haha. no really, i guess its college im actually taking things more seriously this time cause it is COLLEGE. its not like the playing aorund in high school. honestly i had senioritis since i have sophmore year and i just never really tried. i didnt really go to school and didnt really listen or do my hw. yea it was pretty bad. but im focusing in school now and found out school is pretty easy only if you try. im not even always late anymore! but i like college a lot better than hs. theres more people too.

its gonna make me into a better person, telling me procrastination is not the way to go and educating me with things i never knew. its gonna also help me socialize more but i try not to because if i have a friend in that class i WILL talk to them and fool around but maybe not since this is college.

hehe bye!
