I had a great time watching Baruch Voices. I loved everything about the workshop. The speakers made the monologues better than they already were. It was funny, sad, and exciting. I wish t0 attend more workshops like this in the future!

Is that who I think it is?

Im not 100% sober but im pretty sure that is her.

…10 minutes later…

Is this real life?

She is in the seat next to me. 2B.

She seems so normal.

Maybe that isn’t her.

This girl is sitting next to me reading People Magazine.

As the coach passengers walk by, she is hiding her face.

Is she just sick or is she famous?

She seems so normal. So un-celebrity like.

The flight attendant asks us by name what we want to drink.

‘Mr. Reeder, do you want champagne, orange juice or water?’

I choose sparkling water.

‘How about you Ms. Bilson?’

It is her. And she is so normal.

Why do people put these seemingly normal people on pedestals. It makes no sense.

 

The second workshop was for making the transition from student to professional. It was aimed more at the juniors and seniors who are preparing for internships and jobs but their was still some useful information presented. The workplace is a lot different from the classroom and it is good to be prepared.

So basically at the workshop I went to it was kinda awkward because they were too friendly. It sorta seemed as if they hired some people to sit in the crowd as the audience to speak up and give very detailed answers. The workshop was a good experience because now I see myself attending and participating in other workshops in the future that can help me with my personal goals and can help lay out my future.

this workshop was really informative…it seems really useful to use when looking to get hired and assists us in many ways. but the workshop didnt really tell us more than what the starr program offers. the mentors and career help and resume building assistance are great tools to use but other than that, the workshop was boring.

the baruch voices workshop was amazing. the representatives of the speeches were great. they really brought out all the emotion and feelings to the audience. i had no idea people had felt this way or this strongly about certain things. some almost brought me to tears and was very deep. i am proud to attend baruch with them

The workshop was aimed towards business students and how to be professional.

I didn’t really find it too interesting, because I’m not going to be going into business, but I guess there were some good things to learn, and it was boring. They didn’t even have food; no food =boring.

This was the second workshop that we went to this semester. There were 2 presenters from the accounting firm Mitchell and Titus. It was very interesting on how they talked about what would help or hurt someone graduating college looking to go into the work force. They gave us tips on how to keep a clean image and the best things that can leave a lasting positive impression.

I thought the workshop that we attended was pretty boring.  Alot of the things they were talking about were just common sense.  Communication is key, dress to impress, be motivated, first impressions are eveything….I’ve heard it all before.  Also, it was difficult for me as a freshman who isnt even finished with my first semester to be worried about getting a job after college at some accounting firm.  I dont even have a major yet, so although the information might be useful to me in the future, it was hard to really pay attention to any of it during the workshop.  The presenters did a great job and were very clear, but I just dont think this workshop was the most relevant to me, considering where I am at in thinking about my future.

They said just write how you feel and don’t put the pen down. That’s how we go through life right? Never stop to think about if what we’re doing is right and just make sure we get through it. Sadly, that’s almost never the case. All I wanted in life was to be with my friends and know that no matter where they are I’ll always be with one of them. Then after graduation college started and suddenly its strained that our schedules don’t match anymore. Its work and class most of the time and we don’t see each other as much. But being here I have made some pretty awesome friends already and I know I’ll be ok. My life used to revolve around being social all the time. It still does now–I’m just a little more shy and a little scared. Big city bright lights is a new environment for the suburban girl. But I know I’m going to make it.
