Blog post #2
I read everyone else’s blog posts and still have no clue what I want to write about. We, with this post, have to add a visual representation of ourselves; so I decided i’d explain why i put up a picture of a Jewish star to represent myself. Its not an Israeli flag or a picture of the country i was born in; its the Jewish star that represents me because that’s my religion and my lifestyle would have been much different if i was not Jewish.

Who do you think you are…?
I don’t know how I would answer the question of who I think I am… I mean, I know I’m Ben Ashkenazi and I know I live in New York, but what does this question really ask? Does it imply that people think they are someone they are not? or does it imply that people don’t know who they are? I don’t like being asked the question, “who do you think you are?” and take offense to it, often times.
Freshman year at Baruch should be just fine, I’m happy with all of my teachers and don’t expect to have any problems throughout the year at all… Of course I am a little nervous for tests, midterms, final exams, and all of these examinations, but I’m sure ill do just fine.
One thing that is definitely an obvious difference between the “Baruch college experience” and my high school experience is that my high school was five minutes away from my house, Baruch is about an hour and a half commute from my house and that actually affects the whole idea of the “experience”, with the LIRR and the subway every morning and afternoon.
I don’t think the first year in college will change me much because I was always a persistent kid and never really procrastinated in high school; procrastination is usually the thing that hurts students most in college, and they come out with learning that it is not the way to go. I hope this first year will be easy going and quick.
