I started school with an exciting and energetic mind. As I started going to classes, it was getting boring and boring each day. I did expect this much work from college and expectations from professors, but still, it was too much to handle for me. Now that im going into my second semester, I should be ready for the works that are going to be given and feel more confident about school and its work. I think I did terribly for my first semester. It was so hard to keep up with the stress that I was gaining. I don’t really want to go back in time for my first semester. I now understand how college is and how Baruch is. So I should move on to the next step where I should do BETTER.

Blog 2: Monologue
Hello, my name is Younhee Choi, born on February 14 in South Korea. I moved to the states when I was young and lived in the Bronx ever since. Our family was a family of 4 until my sister was born on 2004; we became a family of 5 making myself a middle child between an older brother, and a baby sister. I personally hate rainy days.
On rainy days, it just makes you to be melancholy. I hate when it rains and thunders. I am also afraid when it thunders and when there are crazy noises coming from the sky. Watching thunder spark outside is scary but in some way, it seems to refresh my mind. I like to be alone at home, doesn’t like to be disturbed by my baby sister, who is very annoying. I like to be with friends but I like to rest at home and wouldn’t want anyone to bother me while I’m resting, filling up some energy.
I AM
Who am I? My name is Younhee. I was born on February in South Korea. I currently live in the Bronx with my parents and two siblings; one big brother and one first grader sister. I graduated from Marble Hill high school of International Studies, an international school just like Baruch College, located in Riverdale. I am a lazy girl who likes to eat and sleep. I like chatting with my friends and meeting new people. I always had an interest in photography. I like to keep what I saw as a still cut so that it can last forever with me. I like to be unique and creative; be different from everyone.
One big concern about my freshman year at Baruch College is the amount of work I need to do in certain amount of time. I did have lots of works in high school, but college seems to be worst. i would love college if there were no work to be done, but….. That would never happen……! How sad…
I think everything is different from my high school experience. The size of the school, students, and professors, the amount of work given, different schedules and etc. I think it’s going to give me more stress.
