I think i am a nice person who is willing to help people and like to learn new things.  I  am always amiable to people and so most of people do to me. And I like to challenge everything that are fresh to me.  On the other hand, I have concern on some of my classes. Sometimes there are so much readings and I can not absorb things clearly in the context. Too much reading makes me feel like I dont want to do it. Besides, I am concern of what I can do after I finish college. Should I continue to study or work!? More and more,  I am afraid my English level  is not good enough to adapt me to live in this society. Because I am a 4 years immigrant in New York.  In Baruch, we can freely go to anywhere and do whatever without restriction. We have more time for the break and we can use cell-phone outside the class in school. In first year of the school, I can make friends that I newly meet in Baruch and have my new life in here. I am looking forward to my College Life!

    “Who Do You Think You Are?”
    a) I am introvert. I don’t like to associate with people. I barely make phone calls to my friends and never chat online. Usually I would refuse to go to party where there are a lot of strangers. I am more mature than people in my age. It’s easier for me to make friends with people who are older than I am. I am very independent and impatient. I like to do thing by my own so I don’t have to about other’s opinion. I love to find short cut so I can get thing done quickly.
    b) The top concern about my freshman year at Baruch College is grade. I am aiming for a 3.2 for the first semester. But I have no cue if I can make it because college grading policy is different from high school grading policy. In high school even you are not a great test taker but you can still earn a high grade by participant in class and do homework, in college most percentage of your grade is based on your test grades.
    The second concern is time management. I am not a very organize person. So sometimes I would leave things out. I have to learn to be more cautious to keep track of the time.
    The third concern is making friends. I hope to find a lifelong best friend during my college years. I want to share everything with her.
    c) I think College experience is different from my high school experience. College is about you doing the right thing and making the right decision for there’s no one to push you and spoon-feed you.
    d) The first year of college will make me feel more comfortable and open to share my ideas to people from different culture. Part of the reason I chose Baruch rather than Queens College (which is 5 minutes away from my house) is I want to experience life in the Manhattan and interact with a more diverse group.
