I thought my first semester of Baruch went actually pretty well because I met a lot of new people, and I got to experience Baruch more than I was able to during high school. When freshman seminar started, and I founded out that my whole class was people whose English language wasn’t their native language, I seriously thought to myself that I was in the wrong class. But then, I founded out that it doesn’t matter; I still had fun with them, regardless of their native language.

To be honest, the semester hasn’t really lived up to my expectations. I never have really thought I would drop a class, I always figured out myself as the person that sticks with something no matter what, but I guess the first semester changed me. Other than that, my semester has went the way I wanted. I take advantage of the gym and library every chance I get, especially the wifi.

I think I have changed due to the fact, that I would always wait for someone to introduce them self to me and talk to me, but now I learned that I must take the lead, and do things myself. I learned that college work is also a lot harder than high school work, but I’m getting use to the work. If I was to change my first semester, I would definitely try to pay attention more, because its essential to passing the course. I feel that I should regret dropping my course, but I don’t.

Also I made a lot of new friends, that were pretty cool themselves in their own different way. This is probably due to the fact that for the whole semester, I have been taking classes with them, so I got to know their personality, their traits, etc. Because of that, I became friends with them, even though it took a while, because I didn’t really talk to them much, but now, we’re all pretty cool with each other.
