HAI! I’m Owen; a student at Baruch College that turned 18 just a while ago. I live in Queens, but I graduated from Bronx Science. I’m Chinese, but I was born in New York. If I were to describe myself I would say I’m shy, but open. I love being carefree. I can’t go through a day without listening the music or being on the internet. I like basketball. I hate waiting. I guess I would say I’m an average Baruch student trying to find what he wants to do for the future.
My top concerns about my freshmen year would be slacking off, getting to class on time, and balancing school and free time. So far the college experience has been decent. Although many people would say the commute would be the hardest transition from high school to college, that is not the case for me because I went to school in the Bronx while living in Queens. The most difficult change or difference for me would be the length of the classes and lectures. The lectures are long and I end up tired and bored before the lectures end.
I hope by the end of my freshman year at Baruch I will have better adjusted to college life. I hope I can become more independent, make new friends, and set goals for the future. As a freshman I want to mature and grow. A year from now, I should be able to look in the mirror and see a changed person.
