Art Museum

At the art museum one piece in particular stood out to me, it was a mural from an ancient temple. On the left corner of the mural there was a man being ripped apart by a wolf, his intestines are falling out of the wolfs mouth which is….. just awesome. The painting was depicting an ancient Bodhisattva and the wolf was somewhat in the background. The museum as a whole was the coolest trip we took during the class and it helped me learn that our Baruch ID’s do more than get us into the college, but they also open the doors to many different museums and culturally enlightening places that would otherwise cost money.

Monologue

I’m Zach, spelled with an “h”, short for Zachary, not Zacharia(h or s) 🙂 Blue is my color, real estate is my trade, and Baruch is my school.  I’m from the Pacific Northwest, one of the most beautiful regions of the country as anyone that has traveled it can tell you.

All my life I will strive for life to be interesting workwise, lifewise, and travel is my thing.  So is skiing, new things, food, marksmanship/guns, old cars and anything outdoors… computers, games, music and especially friends.  I love learning history, free market economics and libertarianism any chance I get.  I fear failure most, but know I’ll pick up wherever I fall short moving towards my dreams — to be the first in my family to graduate college, and succeed in business and making political change.

I’m proud of my work ethic and determination, seek to make sense of the world and make it better.  Best of all is meeting new, diverse people with good stories from all over, and New York City has a monopoly on that for sure.  You’re probably one of them, and I’ll see you around XD

Subject: Clarification on English 2100 Assignment

Hello Prof. Dennihy,

I’m wrapping up the comparative essay assignment, and had a question about appropriate formatting.

Is this supposed to be double spaced 3 pages or single?  And would you prefer a title page.

Thank you in advance for your time and help.

See you Tuesday,

Subject: Final History 1000 Grade

Hello Prof. Sen,

I’m writing to request a personal meeting at your office at your earliest convenience.  This is regarding my final grade (B-) in History 1000, which, accordingly with my own records indicates a possible discrepancy and that I should have received an A.

I look forward to the opportunity to reconcile and discuss this matter, please let me know what times work best for you.

Thank you in advance for your time and help,
Zachary Huff

2nd blog post

I feel really empowered when i just go to college or work. I feel like im really heading in the right direction in life and i feel like im taking the reigns and becoming more self sufficient every day. Being my own man is what drives me at the moment, and nothing helps more than that then going from no responsibility to every responsibility ive ever dreamed i would have at this point in life.
