Blog #1: Who Do You Think You Are? – Josh T.

Im really not that great at free-writing, but ill give it a shot. My name is Josh, most people call me Jay (except for my mom). I grew up in New Hyde Park, Long Island. When people think of me, they usually think of clubs. Its not necessarily the the type of recognition I like to get, but it is the type of recognition I usually do. If you were to see my year book, you’ll see a bunch of my friends ending their paragraphs with “P.S JAY TABZ AT THE DOOR”. It kinda just happened. Ever since i was 16 I’ve been working with this company called “Flood the Club” in Long Island. I started as a promoter, just getting my friends to go and getting paid for it, and rose up to being major influence in the event planning. Recently, I even had to sign a contract for a new club we are opening up in Queens.
Besides, for that I would say I’m a pretty much normal guy. I just moved to the city and im finding it hard to adapt not being able to drive, anywhere! Trains and walking is just not my thing. I came to Baruch strictly for education, I know its not that fun of a place, but I’m gonna try to make the best of it and take advantage of living in the city. I hope to network as much as possible and earn a degree in marketing that will really lead me somewhere.
My top 3 concerns about freshman year, is adapting from my senior year lifestyle, making time to work, and still being able to go the gym as frequently as I did last year. I really didnt do… anything. I’m trying to adjust to actually having to study and do all this extra work… adderall <3. Dont worry I’m prescribed. So far I find myself, being able to balance out making money and also making time to study. As far as going to the gym, I’m kind of disappointed in myself. Im beginning to feel like all my hard work going to the gym last year may be going to waste!
