I’m Joby, and I’m pretty chill.
I turned 18 in January, I was a Catholic until several months ago, I’m very liberal, and my parents immigrated to NYC from India in the 80s-90s. I was born and raised in Queens all my life, and attended public schools from kindergarten to twelfth grade. I like to play the keys, (I teach kids piano on Saturdays) and I’m not athletic. I’m kinda proud of who I am and what my ideals are. I love movies and music, and I like to read up on social issues. Books are aiight, too. Politricks are wack.
I’m concerned about time management at Baruch. I was never good at that in high school (then again, I never really bothered to try), and I’m aware that my parents are spending money for me to go here. I’m also worried that I’ll disappoint everybody who have high, high, high, hopes for me. I feel like I need to exceed my family’s expectations. I’m finally concerned about the new social changes that come about during college years. I hope I don’t subconsciously succumb to peer pressure and eventually turn out like those self-proclaimed “mature” kids telling recent high school graduates that they need to grow up and leave behind childish things when entering college.
This experience is already different than my high school experience, in the sense that I’m entrusted with much more responsibility. No more teachers calling my house complaining that I never do homework…. I’ll have to keep track of that myself, now. I think that if i do change at Baruch, it will be for the better, and wanting to perfect yourself shouldn’t ever be considered a bad thing. I feel that I’ll procrastinate less and take initiative more.
werd, yo. this is due in 2 minutes.
Deuces! Peace&Love, everybody
