WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE ?

Shy and quiet are the words people always come up to describe me and I pretty much agree plus I am also easygoing. My favorite subject is math, and I am very disappointed about not having a single math class this semester. Because of being so introverted, I had very few friends around. In my first year in Baruch, I hope to make some friends who I could hand out with even if I am not in Baruch anymore. The big classroom enables us to meet more people but it also pulls apart the distance among people. I had a problem talking to strangers. I remember in history, I had never talked to strangers even if we are taking the same classes all day together. I had never make friends with the strangers I talk to them first. This is very weird and stupid and sometimes I think I am a little autistic, but this idea disappears ever time when I am thinking I get along with my close friends and family members pretty well. Anyway I hope I could make more friends that this problem will disappear too. Furthermore, I really want to join a club I like, but none of the clubs in the campus interested me so far. I had went to the club fair and some meetings seem that interested me, but these meetings ended up making me feel so bore. Starting out a club is cool but it doesn’t sound probable for me at all because of being a next-semester-transferring-out-freshman. Finally I would like to focus on my time management skill for college, I am taking only five classes this semester and I know that’s not enough for me to graduate on time if I fail one accidentally. I want to get use to college life as soon as possible and able to take more classes next semester. Time management is also a very important issue to decide if one is success or not in college. I don’t think there’s anything will make the Baruch College experience differ from high school because I am currently not involved in any outside class activities. However, I hope this situation will change by the end of this year because I don’t want to graduate from one high school and going to another high school again. Even though there are so many problems regard to my social relationship in Baruch, I still believe the first year here will make me a more independent person and get ready for my next step. I will learn more and gain more. Of course I desperately want to amaze others by an outstanding academic record, so I will work hard for it. My favorite quotation is by a famous psychologist Carl Jung, “The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are” Just like Jung said, I am who I am, and I don’t want to be forced to change myself for any reason. I won’t be a well-rounded person because it’s helpful to be so; I will be someone like that because that is actually what I am.
