In my opinion I am the product of my society and community. The way I was raised will determine my future perspectives and future behaviors. I’m a freshman at Baruch College, which is already good to start with. Hopefully, with the education I will receive, I will be able to accomplish my goals in life and fulfill my human lust. I am a son to my mother and a sibling to my younger brother. I try to be the best son I could be, even though it is not always easy to agree with adults concerning your personal life. I am someone who is hoping to achieve something in life and reach some higher enlightenment, that will assure me that my life was not spent for nothing. Education, family and life mobility helps to reach that enlightenment state, by giving a chance to do the best you can and take the most you can carry.
As a freshman at Baruch College, I am concerned about whether I will be able to pass all my classes with better than average grades, whether I will be able to be more active in my school life and how I will be able to manage with my fellow peers. Since the beginning of my school career, I didn’t have to put in too much effort to get a decent grades. Since my acceptance to college, I am concerned about whether I could push myself to do the best and not the decent. Passing all my classes with good grades is important to me. In High School I wasn’t very active and I want to change this cycle of behavior. I heard that activeness is the most important part of college career and if you won’t be active, good things will not come to you on a platter. Therefore it is my goal to get involved into more things. I learned that sometimes communication skills can be more important than technicalities of the job. That is why I want to develop good social skills and meet with different kinds of people to understand where they coming from and what they are about. As a freshman I have a lot of concerns and hopefully I will be able to calm them by the end of the year.
The things that will make my college experience different from that of high school, is that in college I will develop my real identity and not just learn general subjects. In high school we had to learn things that wouldn’t be really useful in our future careers. I college I will learn thing that will help me to find out who I am.
my first year in college will change me in the way that I will become more responsible. I will develop skills that will help me in the future career or life as a whole. There are a lot of people here that teach a lot and every day I come here, I learn something new.
