Who am I? I really don’t even know myself. I don’t think there’s any word that fully describes who I am. Usually one of the most popular icebreakers is that you choose a word that you think describes you and I’ve always had a hard time choosing one. Most of the time I ended up using “unique”. I am unique, but then again, everyone’s unique in some sort of way. I just hope that people see me as someone who stands out of the crowd. It’s hard to be that someone when people usually think you’re quiet and shy, and I do get that a lot. But I’m not. It usually takes a while for me to open to people, but when I do, I’m crazy, hyper, and I like to act silly because I love making people smile. I think my name also helps in showing people a part of me. My mom said her and my dad went to a person who reads fortunes and gives them a name for their newborn that would best fit them since it was a tradition in the family. I was named “Weizing” because that person predicted I would be “hardworking”. And guess what? I am 
A lot of my friends and teachers use to call me a perfectionist because I would never stop giving up until whatever I was doing was perfect. So that’s a little part of how I view myself.
Three concerns I have about my freshman year at Baruch are definitely:
1. Doing well in all my classes and making sure that I get A’s (hopefully),
2. Managing my time well and not procrastinating until the last minute,
and 3. Making new friends and finding a club that I really like. Maybe finding a job would be nice too so I can afford lunch!
My first year at college will definitely shape me into a different person than what high school did to me. Even though I’m commuting to Baruch and still living with my parents, in a way I’ll still have to become independent from them and learn how to take care of myself. Like every professor has said so far, no one’s really going to hunt you down to do this and that, it’s really all up to me to take responsibility. I just hope I can do it well so I’ll leave Baruch as a successful student on their way to a good job.
