Hey, my name’s Selina Yasin and I’m 17 years old. When people ask me who I am I honestly have no idea what to say except for that first line. The truth is I don’t know the answer to that question yet, but I’m hoping that college will help me figure that out. I guess I can start off by telling you guys (if anyone’s reading this) some things that I love and some things that I hate. I like being optimistic and always looking at the brighter side of things. My favorite color is orange. I love the rain, I hate when it’s too hot. I’d rather it be cloudy and cool. I love when old couples hold hands (I’m basically just writing down what I see around me). I love parks. I hate vegetables and I hate blogs.
Top 3 concerns about Baruch: 1. That I wouldn’t be able to cope with the school work because then my grades would slip and I’d flunk out of college, not get a job, and become a crazy train preacher or something. 2. That I would get trapped in a revolving door, again. (I got trapped in the revolving door to get into Baruch on my orientation) 3. That I would generally just hate it (I don’t so far so that’s a good sign).
I think that my Baruch experience will be different from my high school experience because it will be a more serious experience and I’ll start becoming more responsible, instead of my usual go with the flow attitude I’ll start making decisions that will help me shape my future.
I think my first year at college will help me realize who I want to be, and what I want to do with my life because I really have no idea what I want to be when I grow up. I just know that it’s not science/math related. I think it will also help me grow and become a better person.
Well that’s all I suppose, hope to see you guys on Monday
