Wow. Time sure does fly fast. I remember my first few days of Baruch College and to be honest, I did not like it because I was not used to commuting all the way from Long Island. Also, this college sure does give massive amount of work. I still remember I had to read 2 chapters for History class and 3 chapters for Anthropology class. Even though I heard college is all about reading, personally, reading 5 chapters were way too much for me.
However, I’m getting used to college now. Waking up at 8 Oclock to catch 9 10 LIRR is daily life now. Also, I got used to sleeping in LIRR so it doesnt feel like forever in LIRR anymore. And walking from Penn to Baruch is piece of cake now. I became a very fast walker ever since I started commuting. In the beginning of the semester, I thought about dorming or moving out but I figured that would cost me and my family way too much money. But looking back, I think I made the right choice to commute.
In addition, school work is becoming easy for me. After I aced few tests, I became confidant about college and my grade. This confidence did not make me lazy but helped me to become harder worker. Now I have two more weeks of school and I really want to do well and received a high grade to start my college year.
