reflections of first semester
wow i still feel like i just started college and already the first semester is over. the experience i had at baruch was very frustrating to the point where i wanted to quit several times. i came into this school year with some bad habits (not studying at all) and it had a negative effect on my grades. i know that i didnt do very good this semester and im fine with that because now i know what to expect and how to prepare for the next semester. my main problem during my first semester was i had too many distractions at home, pulling me away from my school work. i decided that i will move to new jersey with my aunt so that i can focus on school without a lot of distractions. i certainly changed since i started baruch, especially after doing so bad this first semester. i have grown more responsible and stopped being lazy. i know my next semester will be better than my first and i am prepared to make it happen.

refelction de monologo
i think i did pretty good on my monologue especially since i did it 10 min before class started. I think i did a good job on presenting my ideas and thoughts about college to the class. I wish i would have taken more time on my monologue and i also wish i would have went last. I think everyone forgot what i said after everyone else in the class went.

You have to go to college
it is important
that’s what they tell me
I ask myself why should I go? Why should i pay for something i can learn on my own?
I don’t need a teacher to learn this stuff
I would have more time on my hands
more time for work, family, and friends
midterm on Wednesday, essay on Monday, research paper Tuesday
work every wednesday and thursday
when do i get to breathe?
when will i have time to do what i enjoy doing?
it seems so bad and i ask again
why should i go?
unfortunately its a necessity
however it has its pros
status and that paper of a degree
will get you to those positions you need to be
and on the side of that there is experience
see new places and meet new faces
learn from the old life that this new one replaces
welcome to college!

Who I am
whats up everyone? For those of you who don’t already know, my name is Jason D’Ornellas. I am 18 years old and i was born and raised in Brooklyn. Now lets not all assume that because I’m from Brooklyn means that i am a bad ass drug dealer who will start a fight because you stepped on my shoe or “grilled” me (stare at someone for a long time) LOL . In fact I am a very nice, calm, and respectable young man, as long as i am treated the same way. Once you get to know me you will find that I am very outgoing and I enjoy making people laugh as well as having serious conversations whether its talking about philosophy or last nights yankee game. I love listening to music as well as creating and playing it. I play guitar and sometimes i try to rap even though I am not that good. I was a natural athlete, however i still love sports. Football is my favorite to watch and to play.I hope that I will get to know everyone as they get to know me and create some new friendships during my college experience.
I am concerned that i will slack off a little during my first semester, because i am still trying to break away from some bad habits developed during high school, but i think that i can handle it and adjust to the college life. College, let me just say that I LOVE COLLEGE. To me college is nothing like high school. I feel that everyone is at a much more mature and intellectual level. For me high school was boring and dull, the teachers didn’t really teach and everyone was too lazy to do work. Most of the kids in my classes acted very immature and i wanted nothing to do with my school. They say that high school is supposed to be one of the best times of your life…well i guess College is the new high school because I feel college will be one of the best times of my life. From the moment i stepped into Baruch as a student I already felt changed. I felt like its a fresh start to a better life, one where i will be able to be all I can be and obtain all the knowledge my brain can consume. I think my first year of college will change my intentions as a business major. Almost everyone goes to college with intentions to do one thing and wind up changing their minds, but hey we’ll see what happens down the line, maybe I will stick with my original intentions or maybe they will change and reveal Who I really am and what my purpose is.
