For people that want to know Who Am I, I am Ariel Olivares, I was born on July 3, 1993 I would say that I am a honest, intellectual
young man with big dreams for the future. As a freshman I am planning out what I want my life to be like for the next couple of years.
I want to major in either Marketing or Operations Management it might not appeal to everyone but that’s
what’s great about every single one of us were all different. I want to make
sure I’m at the top of my game and getting my Bachelor’s here at Baruch will
get it done. I am also a huge sports I love watching all sports but my favorite
sport is Baseball, the excitement that I feel when I go to a MLB game is just
phenomenal. Also one of my hobbies that I would like to expand is traveling. I
love moving from place to place exploring new parts of the city I never been
too, knowing that in the back of my head I can’t lost. This determination
devoted student should do well in the future. Most freshman including myself
would be anxious or sort of nervous when they start out at a new school. One of
my biggest concerns was whether or not if I was going to make friends right
away. I was just hoping that I was going to recognize some of the kids that I
went to orientation with and some kids from High School. Right off the bat I
had my first class and I didn’t meet anyone but in my next few classes I
started recognizing a few peers and I was satisfied let’s say. Everyday we see
new faces on the Baruch campus, and the possibility of making new acquaintances.
My second concern was that I might not comprehend the material and be lost. I
felt like this because I’ve heard stories from other college students that if
you don’t take good notes in college you’re going to struggle comprehending
what you’re professor is teaching. Finally my third and final concern was my
time management, I always felt like I need to work on my time management in
order to achieve better grades in school. If I set up a daily routine and
didn’t leave my assignments for the last couple of days I should be in better
shape to enjoy my free time. What will make my college experience different
from H.S. is that this feels more like the real world nobody is going to just
hand you in you have to work for everything and that I don’t see all of my old
H.S. friends as much it’s just a part of life. I think the first year of
college won’t be perfect but it will test me mentally and I’ll just have to
grind it out.
