Are you tired? No problem, just get yourself a cup of coffee. If that doesn’t work, purchase a five hour energy drink. It gives you a great boost and you can stay awake for five hours! I had five hours of sleep last night. Either college is time-consuming or my time management skills suck.
Why do I have to wake up 6a.m. every Monday to Thursday? It’s because I made a commitment to get to class on time. College is not an easy going hobby. It’s a rigorous four year job. I’m here to get an education and learn about life. I come to college to have the opportunity to meet new people and have a good time. What’s your reason for being here? Are you looking for new friends? Are you looking for clubs and activities you can participate in? In order to fulfill any of these reasons, you have to be pro-active. One of the things that does not make sense to me, is when I see students leaving Baruch College and going straight home. I understand that people have their own shit to do. People have homework. People have family. People have religion. I respect that. All I’m saying is; take a break from work. Stop and look around a little bit. You’re in the city. Breathe in that nice fresh air. Enjoy the silence in the streets of Manhattan. Observe the friendly people passing by on the streets. Compared to the noise level at my house, Manhattan is a vision of tranquility. My home is a madhouse until maybe 11pm. My brother wants me to join him in a game of NBA 2K11. My sister wants to borrow some money from me. My mother decides that it’s my day to do dishes. My father wants me to go buy him some food. And all I want to do, is finish my homework and go clubbing in the city. Is that too much to ask for?
The city offers a life of excitement. There is a large amount of places where you can pick up food. There is a large amount of entertainment in the city. But most importantly, there is a large amount of places where you can pick up girls. Think about that next time you wanna go home early, and don’t hesitate to contact the coolest guy you know, yours truly.
