The man, the student, the Foof
Hello college!
It makes me very proud to be able to say that. I have traded stocks and real estate, ran a store, and have been handling household expenses since I was 16 years old. I had no choice, it was just my mom and I making our way in the world, alone, without any aid or family. I have been witnessed some of the worst qualities of humanity, but I have also been blessed in many ways. One such blessing was the chance to work on a commercial video game project : LittleBigPlanet. Here’s a youtube clip a kind member of the community recorded from my interview that shipped on the Special Edition of LittleBigPlanet: Foofles LBP GOTY Interview
Foofles is a name that I’ve used for a decade. It’s as much a a part of me as the blood in my veins. But now I’ve accepted a new element in my life – Baruch College. Years ago, as I was taking my GED exam in Kingsborough College, I fell in love with the college atmosphere. Unfortunately, my mother convinced me not to go to college and pursue business with her. Years later I realized this was a horrible mistake.
My dreams were always crushed by lack of a college education. Including becoming a police officer. Our businesses fell to ruin due to horrible circumstances and I realized that it’s time to go to college. At first I was a little apathetic, but now I’m excited. I’ve met some amazing people here and it’s only been a couple of weeks! I’m 23 years old and picking up from where I should’ve been when I was 17. Best of luck to everyone else, feel free to ask me about anything.
