Everyday I think, “My first semester of college isn’t that bad.” I definitely began the school year thinking college is going to be either complete freedom or a complete disaster. I am glad to say that it is neither; it’s more balanced then I thought. I like all my classes except for one. I don’t want to mention what class because I don’t want to get in trouble. I don’t want this monologue appearing somewhere with that teacher’s name somewhere and stuff like that. I highly doubt that will happen, but it doesn’t hurt being safe. Going back to the class I dislike, I really wonder how in the world this professor began teaching this class. I probably shouldn’t start talking about this professor because my entire monologue might just be a complaint.

Overall, I’m enjoying college. I definitely like the fact that I don’t have to wake up extremely early every single day. Mondays used to be my least favorite day, but now it’s my favorite. Actually, every day became my favorite day. At first, it took a bit to get used to the random breaks between classes, but now those breaks are the greatest. I didn’t really want to write a monologue about school and stuff about school, but I guess that’s what happened. I was thinking about doing a poem like the one I saw in my freshman seminar class, but that obviously didn’t work out. Well, that’s all for now. Good-bye.

Who do I think I am? I think I am pretty laid-back. I’m asian, which is probably really easy to see. I try not to fit the stereotype of asians. It was never really my thing to be like the typical asians people think of. I may seem shy, but that doesn’t make me unapproachable. My top 3 concerns for my freshman year has to be not stressing out too much, making the most of my freshman year, and doing well. I have to say Baruch is a lot freer than my high school. It isn’t as crowded as my high school either. Baruch is definitely a lot more diverse and larger. I think my first year will help me handle stress a lot better and just grow as a person. I hope the year goes by the way I hope it will. So this is me.
