Coming to baruch made me realize a lot about myself, and not in the way i planned. I realized that i am very different in school then i am at home or with friends. When I am at school i tend to stay by myself majority of the time. During my breaks i sit alone, not because i don’t know how to socialize or don’t have anyone to sit with, but because i want to. I don’t speak up too much in any of my classes unless i have a serious opinion about something. Getting ready in the morning before i leave for school… well yeah that never ever happens. I wear sneaker and a sweatshirt everyday, but with my friends at home they have never seen me in a pair of sneakers. Some days I even wear sweatpants to school if I don’t have to go to work after.
The difference of the person i just explained at school, is that when i am at home with my family or out with my friends i am the complete opposite. I am never quiet and I am always surrounded by people. I go crazy when I am out and even when i am at home i always like to have fun everywhere I go. In my high school i was the same way always talking to everyone and having a good time.
Im not saying the way i act now is a bad thing, it is just different for me. College is definitely more serious and people are there to learn and don’t want to be distracted. I’m not going to try and change the way I act because I am comfortable in baruch the way I am now.
