Who Do You Think You Are
by weifeng.li
Well I think I am a freshman, and I think that I am a normal regular person attending Baruch College for the first time and is new to all the experiences and to all the features it has to offer, like their library and their gym and computer lab. But for now, I shall worry about grades for now because we are still new to Baruch, and how things go. Otherwise that is about it.
3 concerns I have is about balancing out the time between school, work and the time you have for yourself. Right now, I’m feeling pretty stressed about having to work around four days a week from four to nine respectively. That barely gives me time for myself and for the other people who wants to spend time with me. Another concern is about finding what I want to study in. I know that it’s hard to figure out so in freshman year, but I would like to know at least some broad or general idea of what I would like to study in. The last concern i have is about opening up. For now, I usually stay pretty quiet, but once I get to know people, I talk a lot to them. So once I get to know the people in my class, I shall start talking to them and etc.
What I think college experience differs from high school experience is the amount of people and the amount of buildings that there is. In my high school, there was around 100 kids per grade so making it around 400 kids total. In Baruch College, I seen tons of people all over the place, especially around club hours. I also like the technology and the library that Baruch College has; its not something Baruch High School had. The library was impressive when I first visited it during high school and it still is to this moment.
I think my first year in college would change me by being in a crowded environment, it would make me talk to people more and get to know them more. Also I think clubs would change me more too, because clubs in Baruch High School did not suit me that much. I never really liked the idea of staying more time after school to participate in clubs so I am hoping that would change in my freshman year in Baruch College. I also think the clubs would change the general idea of what my major would be. Right now I am not too worried about finding what my major is, but i would like to see if clubs would change my mind about it or enforce it even more.
