I am simply a young girl trying to live my life to the best of my ability. I love sweets, especially chocolate, but I refrain from devouring chocolate only because I do not wish to get fat. I love sleeping in my warm and snuggly bed. My adoration goes to my family and friends. I hate being bounded by many rules, but that is beyond my control, so I try to accept them. Homework and exams aren’t my cup of tea either. I severely dislike paper cuts; they are so small, but so damn painful. I also hate complicated things. We make life so complicated, even though, if you really think about it, life can be really simple.
I am bored a lot, but can be amused fairly easily. Furthermore, I am a little shy on the side, but I can talk for a long time if I really like a topic. Lazy is another word that describes me. However, I will work to the bone if whatever I have to do, is something that motivates me or very meaningful to me. I have yet to find a career that I would love to have for the rest of my life, but I’m not going to rush it because I have a lifetime to find it.
I live by: “Success is achieving what you what, but happiness is being content with what you already have.”

Regarding Baruch College… currently, my top three concerns for my freshman year are:
- how to survive all my classes in one piece. I highly doubt it would be a good idea to ruin my GPA so soon… (or ever for that matter)
- how to finish reading all the readings I’m supposed to do in a reasonable and timely manner. People were not joking when they said college was reading intensive. I suppose I would not mind the time flying as much if I actually enjoyed said readings. If anyone got some speed-reading tips, please share. Thanks in advance.
- how to choose classes & professors/schedule classes in the future. Let’s face it; who doesn’t want easy A’s? Who actually wants 7 hour gaps?

Differences from high school…
I expect my future classes to possibly be more reading intensive as well, which is much more different compared to a few pages of reading daily. Starting next semester, I will probably see different people more frequently because we will not be grouped in blocks anymore. I do not know whether this will be a good thing or bad thing as of yet, but I will just have to find out in the future.

How will my first year of college possibly change me?
I will definitely learn to be responsible for my actions and the consequences they lead me to. This is a time where there is nobody to hover over me and make sure I do this or do that. Professionally, I hope that college will prepare me enough to face the work field. Socially, I hope to find people who I can keep in contact with for a lifetime!
