My name is David Haddad and I am very excited to be a part of Baruch College. I am the oldest child in my family so my role is to set a good example for my younger siblings. I am eighteen years old and I am enjoying myself in Baruch College. I have three major concerns here at Baruch College that I want to share with everyone. My first concern is that I am not sure what I want to major in. Although many family members and friends have told me not to worry about it because it will come to me soon enough I still worry. Secondly, I am a little nervous for my first tests in every subject because I don’t really know what to expect. Last but not least, I can’t find a restaurant where I really enjoy the food.
On a different note, the commute is definitely one of the things that made my college experience different from my high school experience. In high school I took City Bus for five minutes every day to reach my destination but to get to Baruch I have to take the Subway and make a transfer. This takes me around one hour per way to get to Baruch College. I don’t mind the commute so much because I find stuff to do on the subway like read books, do homework, or listen to music on my IPod. I like all my classes so far but Psychology and Freshman Seminar top the list because they are both very interesting classes.
I think that I will calmer after I complete my first semester at Baruch because I will know my way around more and I will have more of an understanding of what college life is. As for now I am still trying to figure out certain things so hopefully by next the next Blog post I will have more answers.
