Reflection
1.As I came into Baruch I thought that it would be harder, but it’s actually not that hard. I have managed my time well. I mean people often say that when college comes you have to sacrifice one of these: sleep, social life, or grades. I’ve managed to keep them all. Hopefully, my good grades will continue since that is my top priority. Before coming to Baruch, I figured it would be the same as high school since I feel I don’t really have the full college experience. That expectation did not change. Since it is such a small college, there is no campus with a big grassy field as i imagined college would always have, and many other things.
2- I guess my first semester went pretty well, I don’t know. I really don’t have much feelings towards it.
3- Hmm what would I change? Well I guess I would change to replace my grade with another option in English, so that my average for that class would have been higher but oh well got to “live” with our choices. I don’t know, I really wouldn’t change much. I’m quite satisfied.
4- I haven’t changed that much since I started Baruch College. I’m still the same impatient, impulsive, goofy for the lack of a better word, girl i was and am. After all, it’s only the first semester I have yet to change. I think. Or I might not change, I don’t know. Guess we’ll see.

Community Service Self-Evaluation
- My community service helped the community by directing the people where to walk, tell them not to take pictures, and by giving them my support.
- I wasn’t thrilled.
- I think if it wasn’t mandatory, I would have felt better about it.
- What I learned was that there are a lot of people who really cared and gave their support to the cause.
- The most trying experiences was trying to get the people to listen to you. I was supposed to tell them to not take pictures so that the walk wouldn’t crowd up and stop. It was frustrating.
- This project didn’t so much relate to my education but it relate to the larger issues in society because there are huge issues out there that not many people are aware about.
- It related to the “Leadership and Service” lesson because while you’re participating in this type of service you have to show leadership in order to set an example.
- It changed my thinking, attitudes, and actions towards others, amd community service work as a whole by, making me a more positive person.
- I think it revealed to me that I do have some leadership skills in me.
- I wasn’t really satisfied with the experience considering it was cold and i got home late.
- Only if it is a cause I feel strongly about.
- I Made a Difference!

Monologue
“Deuces! Match Point! Advantage!” These terms became a constant in my life when I decided to join tennis as a distraction. Who knew that it’d become more than that.
It all started in my junior year of high school. I’ve always wanted to learn how to play tennis. Luckily, my tiny school offered it as a varsity team. Tennis didn’t seem that hard at first, however, that was a huge misconception. It is probably one of the hardest sports to learn. There are so many techniques to it and it require you to be entirely focused and dialed in, which is especailly hard for me since I have the attention span of a fish. I get so easily distracted sometimes.
Regardless of all the dificulties it is liberating. I ended up falling in love with the sport. Granted I didn’t make the line up at first, mainly cause it was my first time playing. But the year after that I did. After the strenuouse journey of trying to get on the line up I finally made it. I would practice everyday before tennis season started and it all paid off. I loved the feeling I’d get before a match, a mixture of excitement and anxiety.

Who Do You Think You Are?
Who do I think I am?…Well, my name is Rochelle Tsui. I’m just an ordinary teen trying to make it through college. Currently I am a freshamn at Baruch College and I plan to do something in the field of Business, just like the majority of the student body. However, I feel entering the field of business is a huge mistake for me since I don’t have a passion for it, which leads me to my first concern. I want to do something I love, I don’t want to major in business just because of the money, like most people. On the contrary, money does make the world go round, so I’m kind of conflicted. Anyway, my second concern is to keep my gpa as high as possible ideally a 4.0. My last concern is taking whatever requirements before entering the school of my choice.
So far, my Baruch College is exactly the same as my high school experience because of the blocks we have and some of the professors treat us like high school students. College is supposed to be an environment entirely strange to us where we try to adapt to it based on our own abilities. Having blocks, to ease our way into college does not help with that. In the real world we aren’t going to be so lucky to get “blocks.”
I don’t think my first year of college will change me much, since it doesn’t seem like anything new thus far, but the next three years might.
