Before the instructor introduce and explain each piece of art, I have never thought about the actual, deep messages that the art works tried to deliver. It was really an inspiring tour. She used comparison and contraction to lead us in the artists’ world. The instructor’s words are still hovering in my mind, “Next time you take a picture, you don’t just click,  think about the angle, and the composition of it.”

Since Buddhism is one of the religions that Chinese people would have, some of the stories of the pieces of art in the museum trying to deliver are sound familiar to me.  The art works, especially the paintings were detailed and elaborate. The tales told by the instructor were really engaging. All in all, this activity was inspiring, and it expanded my horizon. I learnt a lot more about Buddhism.

It has been said, “when you grow older, time goes faster.” I recently realized how fast time has gone. Everything seems like happened in groups all at once.
Two years ago I left my hometown. I began my new life in New York along with my family. I went to New Utrecht High School. I passed all the classes. I took SAT. I got accepted to Baruch. I had an intimidating freshmen orientation. I had a wonderful summer, which was the best summer ever. And three months ago, my journey in Baruch began. I had new classes. I met new people. I was involved in a new environment. I have been facing a new challenge.
At this point, school and every stuff that is related to school seem like occupying my entire life. I spend nearly all of my personal time on school work. It is not easy, but I believe that things would get better as I stay longer in Baruch, and that is how college life should be. Do it or not, it is up to me. But I bear the consequences. I am a grown-up. I take care of my own business. I have the responsibility.
However, I believe that there is always something good if I am willing to think in a positive way. I enjoy my college life at some point because of the pride of being a college student. I am not treated as a kid anymore. And I have made new friends here. They are nice and friendly to me.
Friend for me is a very important and essential part of my life since I have experience to leave all of my friends all of a sudden not only once because my family kept moving to new places when I was small. This made me to realize that it may be not a difficult to be friends with the others, but only real friends would never leave you no matter how ling and how far we have been separated.
Last but not least, what I expect for the coming four years in Baruch are A’s, fun lectures, friends, and possibly a smooth path towards graduation and succeed.

In the slideshow above, i included everything I love, and how I have been known as. One thing I would like to explain specifically is the picture of my biggest accomplishment. I had a chance to stand on the podium in the New York Stock Exchange by chance along with my classmates when I was in High School. Everything in NYSE was kind of a lure that made me want to know more about businesses and the market. This is the reason why I am here in Baruch, and striving to get into the business world.
