I AM SLAV

I am Svyatoslav Balaban but everyone calls me Slav. I am a normal college kid, nothing out of the ordinary. I love playing soccer and basketball, listening to rap and hip pop, and sleep on my free time. I am a hard working individual, quiet, and smart; I stutter occasionally but this is what defines me and I don’t mind. I am a unique person and you’ll never find anyone else like me, trust me. College so far hasn’t been a breeze and there are a couple of worries. First I’m afraid of failing English because I already got two C+’s and I really can’t understand poetry. When the poet says it there’s a sunset I think the night is starting and not that love is ending. I am also afraid of failing calculus because I do not understand anything the teacher is saying or going over, math is definitely not my best subject anymore. My other concern is picking bad classes for next semester so I have to start thinking about that soon. What I feel will make Baruch better then High School is participating in school. My senior year I just came to school and left after my day was done, didn’t want to spend too much time in school, hoping next semester of being a bit more outgoing with all the clubs and activities. I feel that my first year of college will change me because it will make me more organized and will make me do homework on free time rather then last minute because what I’m doing now isn’t working out too well for me.
