Hi there! My name is Dariya. I am very excited about my first semester of college. I am 18 years old, and I live in Yorktown Heights. Most people have no clue where that is.. It’s only about an hour upstate. I consider myself to be a pretty nice person, and I love meeting new people. That is one of the reasons that I went to Baruch, because it is in the middle of New York City, which is filled with lots and lots of cool people.
It’s been a couple weeks into the semester and I am already starting to struggle. In most of my classes, there is assigned homework for every class, and if not homework then reading in very boring textbooks… In high school I never used to read textbooks, but now I have no choice ]: Also, I have already been sick twice since the semester started, and I am not liking this weather we’ve been having lately. There’s a lot of responsibility and credibility that came along with this new college experience and it definitely is going to take some time to adjust. I hope to make the best of it.
As far as change goes, people are always changing. You’re changing, I’m changing, the world is changing. But that’s okay, it doesn’t bother me much. I just hope that this year will bring lots of positive change.
Thanks for reading!
Hope the year goes great for you! College is definitely a big step in ones life but once you get the gears moving, next thing you know you’ll be graduating. Cherish these years, for you will always look back upon them with a smile. O.o
