Im always the one to blame. I know i know ive made some mistakes in my past. Ive let down a lot of people. Ive hurt those that im closest with. and you remember each and every thing ive done wrong, and in vivid detail. But can i ask, why dont u remember any of the good i do? Frankly, all of that goes unnoticed. Nothing good i do is ever noticed until i stop doing it. Do i ever get a thanks, or a good job when i do something good? Nope. Is it because im quiet? Is it because im shy? But have i ever seen u there for me when i cry? Na, Ive never even seen you try. Do u like pointing out all my flaws? I bet you do, no wonder why yoire always there to banter me with hate. I’m starting to think that all this real love youre showing me is fake.  But you know what, its all ok. Because it made me realize a lot. It made me realize Im not your lover, and  im not youre friend, im something you will never comprehend. Forget the past, im looking towards tomorrow, because all that ive had in my life is pain and sorrow. The days are turning to months, months turn to years, time is movin faster than i can wipe my tears. Its like im some sort of… Enigma, trying to call out for love, but my mouth can only whisper. Maybe someday youll realize who you lost, and how we this could have been our fate, but by the time you realize that, it will be too late. I never said that you mean the world to me, maybe its best that you never know.

And please take it personal. Because it’s personal.

My name is Jarett Heinz Sommer. When I was younger I hated to tell people my middle name, in fear that they would make fun of me. As I grew older, I learned to embrace it, and embrace my heritage. This was a point of change in my life. I am a very humble, quiet person. Sometimes I struggle to find the words I’m looking for. Sometimes I make a fool of myself, but I’m ok with that. I think once I learned to deal with myself and my imperfections, I became a complete person.

Before beginning the semester at Baruch, I had many concerns. Was I going to make any friends? How am I going to get from my dorm to school? How am I going to force myself to do homework when there is nobody checking up on me to see if I am doing my work? But now, being a few weeks into my first year at college, I am very comfortable. I have made many friends, and got to know them in a very short period of time. Now it’s almost like we have known each other forever. Getting from my dorm to Baruch is getting easier and easier everyday because I am memorizing the route. However, it still is hard to get myself to sit down and focus on work. I am sure that with time and experience, my studying habits will get better. I am very comfortable with my position as a student right now.

Coming from a very small high school, it felt like I knew everybody’s names and faces. With Baruch, I am seeing new people everyday, and meeting new friends each week. This is a very humbling experience because I am not used to meeting this many new people. Nevertheless, I am getting used to the setting of Baruch, and I have no regrets with my choice of college. I know that this school will provide me with the education I need to be successful after college.

I know that being here for the first year will make me a different person. My thinking about the real world and real-life situations will change, and I can see myself becoming more scholarly. College is very different then the schooling I have had in the past, and I know that I will become a better person because of it. Through my interactions with my fellow classmates, and professors, I know that I will change for the better.
