I know that it’s almost been 2 months since school started and honestly I still don’t know whether I belong here or not. Coming in and going out just feels too much like high school; nothing is new and on top of that I know nothing about business. Unlike  many people in Baruch who are very  money and work oriented,  I just want to be a dork and constantly learn new things. But so far I don’t feel like I am learning much. Although I don’t see many changes outside, I see the changes inside of me. It’s weird saying that I grew up within the last 2 months, but I definitely did. I learned how to prioritize things and really get shit done. In order to get shit done I gave up a few things. I barely have time to talk to my friends, family or hang out because of school and AIESEC stuff. So in order to get a life I gave up playing volleyball on a club team. I miss it so much. I haven’t touched a volleyball in 2 months. Hopefully in the end I will find my perfect place in Baruch and it will be worth it.

I use to wonder and ask myself this question a lot. I tried really hard to come up with a way to describe who I am or the type of person I am. Sure I can tell you a whole bunch of facts about me that won’t change, but if someone is to ask me that question, it’s probably not to know all those facts.

So if you take away the facts like my blood type or birthday and all that stuff, what’s left? Honestly some of the things that I thought described me didn’t always stick. I mean as humans we are constantly changing, one day I might say I’m lazy but next day I’m playing volleyball. So what is it? Am i just a hypocrite?

In the end all this made me come to a point where I got tired of asking. It’s so complicated and confusing.  So why ask when I’ll never be satisfied with the answer. Right now I’m just me without trying to figure out what’s me. So if you ask, who am I? I honestly don’t know how to answer, but hopefully as time passes you’ll know who I am anyways.

WOW I REALIZED I DIDN’T REALLY TELL YOU GUYS ANYTHING… lol oops well…
