I think that the freshman orientation class , at the start, was annoying , because it made me wake up early on a Tuesday , which I could’ve just woken up lateLike I do Thursday. But now I realize it really did help. Te little things we talk about in class did make me a little more knowledgable on how to get around in Baruch. And Isis enjoy the thing we talked about in class especially thedays where thoughts our thoughts on certain subjects.

I enjoyed the first show we watched, even though I’m not really sure if that counted as an enrichment workshop. I think it was cool because they really did hit on a lot of things college kids face. It resonated with me is because I think that I also have a lot of advice on the things they were talking about, but don’t really know how to give it out unless someone asks. But the performers on the show took the subjects, added a funny twist on them, while still maintaining that truth about it. They talk about everything from sex, to drugs, to roommates, and to feeling lost in college. All things that college kids face, and might not know about. They showed the and sides to things, even if they added a comical twist to it. I thoroughly enjoyed everything they said, and it also made me feel a bit better about being lost in college. Its not like high school where it was easy to know everyone, in college you are on your own, but never truly because you can make friends whenever you want. The singing and dancing just added more to the entertainment side, and its nice to know that there are people out there who care to inform the young people about what to expect.

My first few months into Baruch have been alright. Ive always hated schoolwork, so I didn’t really expect to enjoy college. I thought I could breeze my way through Baruch like I have always done with school, but guess what caught me off guard? A lot of work to do, a lot of things to remember. I walked into class the other day, right into a test because I forgot we had one. I think I know what my grade for that test is looking like. And as we speak I have 2 essays do, which I really haven’t made any progress on. So I think ill be spending my saturday trying to finish up this homework. So yeah, Baruch hasn’t been the greatest thing ever, but its not that bad. I met a few cool people, but not really interested in doing much more because I just wanna keep up with my schoolwork and fix my gpa next semester after the horrible things I’ve done to it now.

I believe that people are representations of their selves, those who are around them, and the experiences they had. I pride myself in surrounding my self by people who I can take attributes from to make myself a better and more well rounded person. Whether its family or friends, everyone and everything can have some kind of contribution to you. A good or bad person, a happy or sad experience, everything stays with us whether we realize or not. My family teaches me responsibility, to be a good person, to care for those close to us, but they also can show me faults in families, things that I want to do different with my own family. When people who were my friends before, and get kicked to the curb, I realize what kind of people I never want to associate with myself and ways that I never wanna act. Good friends show me what kind of things I like in other people, things that without noticing I develop in myself, and am overall a better person. The places I’ve been show me where I want to be, or where I want to end up. Whether its a simple rooftop in brooklyn, or a lit up city at night from a country that is completely different then mine, in those moments I am just happy. Experiences show me what things I could’ve avoided, like fights and arguments, but I never regret it cause it changed me forever. And the best experiences of my life, show me what I strive for, and show me what keeps me content and happy at the end of the day.

I put a few pictures, pictures that I found to best describe me. I put a picture of my mom because I want to show I care about my family, especially my mother. I also put a few pictures up with either my little brother or younger brother, cause family is a big part of my life. But I think an even bigger part of my life are the people I spend my days with. They are people that I have been with for a long time and no matter what our friendship never ends. Its because they are a group of people that I can trust and are dependable. From the people I met at school, to people I met at my first job, they all became an integral part of my life. My best friends who help me when I’m down, and my girlfriend who has always been around for me, keeping me extremely happy and always pushing me to become better. My family and friends are a big part of my life, I feel like they describe me as someone who really cares for people. Im also someone who loves to had fun, and in a few pictures I’m at a party, or taking vacations with my friends.
