Well the semester is almost done and finals are coming up. Thus far college has been pretty good, I  really cant complain. Aside from calc (which I dropped) classes have also been fairly easy. My first semester of college has tought me alot. It has also showed me what improvements i should make for next semester. This semester I really didnt do much of the readings for sociology or poli sci, even though I am doing well in these classes, I feel like I could have done even better if I studied and read with the class. My first semester also has thought me were to go after classes, and what places have the best food to eat. I t has made me more comfortable of the city. My semester had few bumps on the road but overall it has tought me so much and the steps I should take to better my self in future semesters.

Hi, My name is Bakhtiar Ali. Well after reading my free rights I noticed i said i am very shy and i hate public speaking. So for my monologue ii will be talking about public speaking. I hate speaking in public. Everyonre is staring is at you. And you try real hard to say everything that memorized the night before. Your all aloneand you feel like its you versus a group of people. But i am sure that i am not alone. Public speaking is one of the biggest fears people have. Did you know more people are scared of public speaking then they are of death? Yeah thats right that means more people are scared of giving the euology in the funeral then being in a casket. I was hoping  i would get a few laughs out of that. Thank you and enjoy the rest of your day.

My name is Bakhtiar Ali. I am a very kind and helpful person. I will always try my best to help someone who needs it. I am also a very shy person. Whenever I am with a group of people that I dont know I am usually quiet and try to remain unseen. But once I get to know someone I feel very comfortable around them, I am a very funny and talkative person. Another thing about me is I love sports. I feel most comfortable around people when it has something to do with sports. My hobby is anything that has to do with sports. I love watching and playing sports. My I am very kind.  I am also very shy until you get to know me and I love sports.

My first concern for college invloves calculus class. So far I dont understand anything in calc. My favorite class has always been math but calculus  completely different from anything i learned. Another concern I have is have I can keep a job and do well in school. In a couple of days I will be working and I hope work doesnt affect school too much. A third concern I have is if i can build strong friendships with my peers. In high school I left the school with many great friends who I still have great friendships with. But in college every semester we change classes and the classes are so big that I dont know if I will leave getting to really know someone

So far my college experience has been different from high school. There are many differences. College and the teachers are really fast. Also they dont give the best notes and it is up to the students to take notes of whats important. In high school I never really studied or read the books assigned but based the work I dont think I can do that anymore. Also there is no one to baby you and give you reminders on what to do. You better remember when your assignmbets are do.

I think my first year college will make me feel really tired and make me happier that summer vacation has started. Also I think it will make me more hard working and organized.
