Isabelle- belle isa. First blog!

What a difficult question! Well one time I took a personality quiz and it told me I was a contributor…. Which I think kind of sucks. I am 18 but look like I am 25. I am stubborn and I seriously exaggerate allot of things. I love music, recently it’s been rap but I’m very open minded when it comes to the arts. My father was born in Chile, and I milk that ;) . My mother is Irish, and I am her mini clone (hence my freckles). I love to laugh, I like sunrises and sunsets, although I am not at all a morning person. Some people would call me a girly girl- haha, true story. My friends and family mean the world to me. I’m hard headed and I am not really susceptible to peer pressure, which is something I pride myself on. My favorite emoticon is this one -__-  ( the bottom line can vary depending on emphasis), but this one is really growing on me c: (so cute). I told you a lot of random facts about myself but I guess that’s because I’m not exactly sure who I am yet. I can give you a lot of things I know about myself, but I really can sum up who I am in a paragraph. Maybe I’ll be able to do that soon, but a part of me doesn’t ever want to be able to fit my personality in a box.

My top three concerns about Baruch are, math class, history, and my time management. If you are in my math class then you understand why. Math is my weakest subject and my professor doesn’t explain things in a way I understand them, so I think I have to get a tutor :/. Besides that she isn’t going to write the final, so she’s not 100% sure exactly what is on it- and 90% or our grade is the 3 exams combined. So that’s going to be a serious hit or miss for me. Second biggest concern is history- because there are so many terms already, and it’s only the third week. We have to know, by heart, all the terms from beginning to end. And my memory is terrible. Lastly time management is a big one, I have always struggled with this and now it’s really time to address it, otherwise the year is looking stressful, with lots of procrastination.

So far nothing really, the elevators are much more crowded and even though the school is small, my school was smaller. It took me four years to figure out how to get around my high school, so we’ll see how this goes…so far I’m usually lost. Anthropology and History are the biggest classes I have ever been in, which makes me less likely to raise my hand. I used to know everyone….now I only know you all (not a bad thing, just different). Also I am having trouble with the concept that really no one cares what you do. Which is weird, I’m used to being on a short leash. We’ll see how long that mentality lasts.

Hopefully I’ll start being able to handle stress better, so far I have no control and will be extremely stressed out or really calm and carless. I really need to find a healthy medium. Hopefully I will grow up but more in being able to handle life, I don’t want to laugh or cry any less. In that way I want to stay young. I doubt college will kill me, and whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger right? That is what I am hoping college will change in me.
