Reflection of First Semester
My experiences at Baruch College was very memorable. Transitioning from high school to college, i was very worried that i wouldn’t be able to keep up with the cultural norm. Believe it or not, Baruch College is very competitive compared to all the other CUNY’s. It was hard in the beginning because everything was so new, but it was fun in the long run. I have learned so many things both in and out of class. I became a more sociable person and i learned a great deal in class. Not to be a nerd, but one of my passions is learning. I love retaining information and randomly spuing it out loud when the time comes. It has definitely exceeded my expectation and prepped me for the outside world. I didn’t thin Baruch had so much to offer to their students. With all the free computer software down to the renting of laptops, helped me understand that Baruch College was for me not against me (Like most high schools) My first semester went very well. I tried my est in every class, except writing because it’s impossible to do well in the class. I met a lot of friends, or even acquaintances. If i can do it all over again, i would definitely drop English. That class has screwed me over and really discouraged me to write. Setting limitations and boundaries to my own style of writing. In the end, i have definitively changed into a more mature person. Being able to be more depended on my own and prioritizing my goals, it has been a very interesting semester. Because i get to choose my classes next semester, it will be more pleasant then this one.

Community Service Self-Evaluation
1.) My community service required me to teach SHSAT math to middle school students. 2.) I was very against the idea of community service because being president of Key Club, i had to provide service to the community through out my whole senior year. 3.) It made me feel good because i was able to raise SHSAT scores for students, in order to get into the the specialized high schools. 4.) I learned that i don’t have patience for kids, students were very distracted and 180 Scholarship is legitimate. 5.) What stands out to me the most was when 180 Scholarship went on a field trip to the MET. I learned that students had the ability to appreciate art, including myself. 6.) Engaging in the community opened my eyes o what the middle schools weren’t teaching and how messed up our education system was. 7.) It did not relate to the Leadership and Service Session. 8.) It has turned my thinking upside down, it help me see why kids were getting so stupid in America. 9.) I have developed a close relationship with my students and it help me learn that you can never judge a book by its cover. 10.) I was satisfied because the investment i put into students was worth wild. i was a significance in their lives. 11.) No because i am very introverted. 12.) 180 Scholarship help me see a different picture in kids. Students are really in need of a better education and this institution is the place to be.

Monologue
My name is Kyung Han but most people call me Kye. I went to Susan E. Wagner High School and I currently live in Staten Island. I’ve lived in Staten Island for most of my adolescents’ stage of my life so going to the city everyday has been a real culture shock. Staten Island is a pretty small island, compared to all the rest of the boroughs. You can do much on the island so most kids end up playing sports. I like to play a whole variety of sports, including basketball, volleyball, football, etc. I started getting into sports in middle school and I was one of those un-athletic kids growing up, but thank god that’s not the case anymore. When I was young, my friends and I played basketball in the spring/summer and football in the fall/winter every Friday. This was habitual. The one thing I don’t like is waking up. It is the worst feeling in the world. I’m always half asleep and I tend to zone out a lot. I am definitely not a morning person. I identify myself as just one of the many people fighting to get the competitive jobs. I put a lot of high standards on myself because I like achieving goals that require a lot of effort. I don’t like to listen to or follow people, unless their points are validated. I don’t put any limitations on myself. I am afraid of regret and all the “what ifs” that boggle up my mind, drive in insane. I feel most happy when I know my day was productive. I live everyday planning out how to get the most out of my day. I love learning something new every day. It is in my character to be the best of myself. Being a vegetable all day is not my forte. My goal in Baruch is to get a 4.0 grade point average and my biggest challenges in school are developing study habits and doing my work when it’s first given. I have accomplished developing my work ethic, and I know how to print paper in the library. I play just as hard as I work. Whenever I need to get away from school, I call up my friends and spend my time with them. A lot of my friends tell me that I get really loud and obnoxious when I’m having fun. I don’t think that’s the case. My type of fun is doing things you know are stupid, but you do it anyway. During my free time, I sleep.

Who Do You Think You Are?
I am a currently a student at Baruch College trying to find out, what i want to do with my life. Business is something i definitely want to do, but the area is broad. Can’t decide on what i want to do. I doing business not because i think I’m going to enjoy it but because i want to make money. I don’t know anyone that wants to do business because it’s fun. As a person I may seem nice, quiet and gentle, but I’m actually very obnoxious. I can get really loud when I’m surrounded by a throng of people and I don’t have much self control. I can be tactless at times because I’m so busy indulging in what people call fun. My top three concerns for this year is trying to get a 4.0 gpa my freshmen year, trying to adjust to the college environment and managing my own time. What makes Baruch so different from high school is the maturity level and a certain level of ambitious each student has. Since the educationally system in high school is free, there is a complacency that settles in each student, because they have nothing to lose. In college; however, since money is coming out of most students pockets, the level of seriousness increase. Not a lot of people like to waste money. As students are paying for their education, the mental of “not wanting to waste a single cent” takes over a person. My first year of college will definitely show me how serious i can take my life.
