I think that I am an outgoing and friendly person. I love meeting new people and I am certainly always open to making new friends whenever I can. Additionally, I just basically love to talk and have a great time in whatever I do. Without a doubt, as I began my freshman year at Baruch College I had a great number of concerns. I was extremely scared of getting used to the city life since I have always went to school on Staten Island. Although I was very excited, I was not sure of what to expect of going to school in the city for the first time. Furthermore, considering the fact that all my close friends went to different colleges, I was scared of starting such a significant part of my life completely alone. However, that challenge just made me more independent and further helped me make many new friends at Baruch. In addition, another concern that I had going into Baruch was the pressure of college work load. I was sure that shifting from an easy senior year, which consisted of a few classes, to 5 new college classes, which consisted of long hours and massive work, was going to bring an immense amount of pressure. I was concerned of how I would be able to handle and take on all the pressure that was going to come from my first semester.
Certainly,many things will make my experience at Baruch much different from my high school experiences. Not only will I experience going to college in an extremely different environment with new people but I will also get the opportunity to learn numerous new things about various topics. I feel that College will offer me experiences that will change my perspectives on many aspects of life.
Undoubtedly, I think that my first year at Baruch will change me in many ways. It will help me become an even more responsible and independent individual. Furthermore, I strongly feel that my first year at Baruch will help me gain great knowledge.
