Baruch Experience

When I heard that I was only going to be taken two classes my first semester at Baruch I was really devastated.  I worked so hard in high school and I felt like all of my hard work was for nothing.  I had a really bad experience at orientation and there was never good communication between when I had to be present and when events were actually taking place.  However, after almost finishing my first semester I have to say I am looking foward to my continuing carreer at Baruch.  I have learned a lot about myself especially from those around me.  I enjoy seeing new faces every day even though I feel as if I get lost in the crowd.  I learned that especially in English, my work isn’t so much graded on content, rather, my professor’s opinion.  It has not been too much of a struggle or anything because I have had time to work almost 5 days a week and I am interviewing for a new job tomorrow.  I have been asked to model at two different clothing companies all because of being in the city and around Baruch’s campus.  I enjoy spending time with the people I attend class with because they are a lot of fun and I feel we all relate to each other in different ways.  I am planning on taking a full load next semester because I want to challenge myself especially after having such a lax school schedule this semester.  I think Baruch is going to prepare me extremely well for whatever I want to do in the future.  I have already been asked by a fellow Baruch upper class men if I would be interested in doing an internship for UBS.  I am pleased with the community of Baruch, and even though it feels large and that there are a lot of faces, everyone seems to accept you.  I am enjoying Baruch a lot, and I plan on continuing my journey here for the next few years.
