I don’t yet know who I really am or who I was meant to be. What I do
know about myself is that I am very unique, independent and strong; I am sure I
can overcome any obstacle that is thrown at me from left field, which is
something I have had to do all my life. I’ve often heard people say, “You will
figure out who you really are once you go to college.” I don’t personally know
if this is true or not, but I am still waiting for this moment. I hope to learn
more about myself and grow as a person in Baruch. This was an impossible task
in high school because there were too many immature people and distractions,
but now that I do have time I want to focus on myself; my wants and desires and
nothing else.
There are a couple of things I am concerned about though; time management, motivation, and overall scores. I am the type of person who leaves everything for the last minute, but in college that isn’t quite working out. I have to constantly push myself to study and start the assignments ahead of time and not the day before it is due. It’s hard to sit and read for hours, but I have no other option because I want to earn the grades that I deserve. This is the path I chose and
it is the only one that will get me to where I want to be, therefore I have
stick to it and change my old patterns which will evidently get me nowhere.
