a. My name is Christie Li. I am 17 years old and from Brooklyn. One fact about me is that I like Hello Kitty – a lot. We share the same birthdays.
b. My biggest concern overall is building my GPA. I understand that my GPA is not everything, but however, it is a bit easier to start off with a good foundation in grades than rather try to boost it up in the later years. Hopefully I can do well in my freshman year, so I don’t have to worry it about as much in my junior and senior year. Also, another concern is the balance between school and fun. I don’t think I manage my time effectively so I’m going to have to learn to change my ways in order to do well in school and be social. I’ve already joined a club, so it’s a start. Lastly, the workload is going to be difficult. Since I have at least two classes a day, I have to read and study plenty to keep up in the classes. It’s especially difficult on days when I have three classes.
c. I will definitely have to be more independent and self-reliant. There isn’t going to be a “guidance counselor” helping me, giving me updates and guiding me throughout the year.
d. Freshman year of college will definitely give me a better taste of being an adult. It will make me more mature and make me start to think about a career path I would like to head towards.
