I think Baruch has lived up to most of my expectations. I have gotten to see the city in a different way. I am used to seeing parts like the Bronx and Brooklyn of the city. But since I made friends here at Baruch I have wen to SoHo a place I have never been before and eaten some good Mac and cheese. I want to try new things even though I might suck at them (pool).
I think my first semester has went well it was kind of tough mainly because of math but overall it has been fun. I have met new people and made new friends. It was a good introduction to college and what I can expect for the next few years and what I need to do to succeed in college.
One thing I would do differently is take math more seriously and take a more of a proactive approach to that class. Also I wouldn’t have complained so much about how bad my teacher is and instead made sure I did everything I possible could to pass that class.
I don’t think I have changed much because still don’t have the kind of mentality a person needs to be successful in college I believe. I just think my lazy habits from high school has followed me into college and has not allowed me to put my best foot forward and take college as serious as I know I should. I think that I am slowly coming out of my shell and starting to open up a bit more with my peers.
