I guess I’ll start by saying Hey ! Im Reneeee :] (with one e). I’m from Yonkers which is huge, but it feels tiny because everyone knows each other. I’ve lived here all of my life and its definitely part of who I am as a person. I come from a super diverse background, growing up in a place where any possible nationally exists, not to mention having black mother and a white father. But more specifically about me, I’m laid back but full of enthusiasm and love to make the people around me happy at all costs!
My top 3 concerns about freshman year are : 1. Scheduling 2. Sleep & 3. Maintaining a Social Life. In the past, I’ve had a huge issue with time management. So for this semester I’m trying to work on that so everything else with fall into place … hopefully!
I think my Baruch College experience is way different from my high school experience in every way possible. For one, my commute went from less than 10 minutes to a hour and a half train ride. Also, my work load doubled. High school wasn’t much of a challenge for me and I’ll admit that I didn’t feel the need to always apply my self. But in college that will never be an option!
My first year at college has already changed me. Aside from the obvious gain of knowledge, I’ve become more independent, resourceful and my life has become more structured.
