Hey whats up? My name is Giuseppe Palazzolo i’m 18 and i’m an Italian American born in Brooklyn and raised on Staten Island. I’m a person with high ambitions and plans for the future. I like to have a good time and relax, but thats after I finish what I have to get done.
My first concern of college is time management. I feel that I have to learn how to manage the free time that college allows me to have. On a two hour break its hard for me to choose whether to hangout with friends or to study for an upcoming test, but if I can manage my time in the right way I can hangout and do well in my classes at the same time. A second concern for me is keeping track of tests and homework. I come from a small private high school so I guess it was easier for my teachers to constantly remind us of things that were to be due and guide us on how to do them. After starting my first semester at Baruch I realized that the teachers don’t really care if we did the homework or if we fall behind in the class. My third concern is adjusting to the city lifestyle that comes with Baruch.
I hope that my first year at Baruch makes me a more knowledgable person. Baruch is a college with highly diverse nationalities. Getting to know people of other cultures and nationalities will help me because I would be interacting with many different kinds of people in the future business world. I hope that you learned a little about me in this blog, i’m happy to start this first year at Baruch and i’m looking forward to making new friends and connections.
