Senior years of high school here and now, I’m about to experience college life
at Baruch. I am very excited, anxious, scared, happy etc!! Why? Well, I never really felt formally accepted to anything here
in New York. In the high school that I transferred into, on my very first day,
my advisor just led me into the classroom without letting me introduce myself
in front of everyone. It was the most awkward situation I’ve been in. I
literally didn’t know what to do. As the days progressed, I did learn to adapt
and make small friendships. After convocation and becoming a freshman at Baruch, I’m
very thankful that now, I can start from scratch. Hi! My name is Carina Cybele Verzosa. You can just call me
Cybele! I was born in the Philippines. I can fluently speak both English and
Tagalog. I love Math and I like going outdoors and playing sports. I play video games and am an anime otaku. I love
food and desserts! I try to never eat the same thing twice in a restaurant. I label myself that “neurotic, self-conscious lazy girl”. If you ever need a friend, I’ll be there! In college, I want to be heard and to come out of my shell! To be able to participate in a lot of activities and to
broaden my views! I have a picture of the kind of person I want to become in
the future. I hope that along the way, my college experience will positively
influence that picture.
