My Monologue
After being in college for a month or so, I’m starting to learn the system a little bit better. Getting to know the teacher’s and what they expect from me. Honestly speaking I’m not so cut out for college, some people that I know they work, they go out at night and they still pull in amazing grades. These people have no problem to sit in the library for 6 hours at a time. For me to do that I would probably have to get paid. That doesn’t mean that I should give up, it just means either, I have to try much harder then they do or I just have to hope that college doesn’t get much harder then this.
I wanted to go into a little bit about a free write question you gave us to do in class once. You asked us what our personal motto was and I answered “don’t worry be happy”. Interesting point here Bob McFerrin is the true composer of this song. Huge classic rock fan by the way, also love house music, I DJ hear and there, ill get into that, maybe. Anyways I was saying that yes that’s the mottoI like to live by. Although sometimes being to chilled can bite me in the ass. People can take advantage of me; abuse their privileges so to speak. One of my friends been sleeping on my couch for the past 2 weeks I don’t say anything of course, its just one of many examples. It also doesn’t help my procrastination problem. Being worried about paper’s and test that are coming up isn’t all that bad. My problem is I keep telling myself that really all I need to do is graduate and not really care about my GPA so much, I mean its not going to say my GPA on my diploma. If I keep that attitude I’m probably not even going to graduate.
It’s starting to get mad cold outside, everyone is starting to wear their jackets to school and stuff, gets annoying though. Because when it cold outside no matter how much the air conditioning is on inside, its always to warm. Then your stuck with your jacket and you don’t want to wear it but you also don’t want to carry it. So you decide to shove it in your bag, but then your bag just looks massive. Mr. Fink by the way, you’re my role model.
So hear we are almost at the halfway marker of our first semester hear at Baruch. This class is the shit by the way, really chilled kids in this class. My friend was telling me how much he hates all the kids in his block. I honestly don’t have one negative thing to say about any of you guys, hope same goes for me.
