I’ve never been the typical “asian” ever; and being at baruch made it all the more obvious at how not asian I am. In high school, there were only a handful of asians and none of them were in huge groups and spoke only in their own language. In a way, I find it interesting to see so many asians at one place and see the diversity in their prospective ethnicities. I think so far, Baruch is a good school choice for me; I know for some people they cant stand it because of the lack of campus and the lack of a student life. However, I’m the more reserved, casual type person, and the fact that I am able to dorm helped alot. I thought that i may be bothered about going to a city school, but I think it was the right choice for me. I love waking up to the sky line and going to sleep with the city lights. I don’t think I’d have it any other way. In regards to academics, this semester has been the easiest semester of classes since my freshman year in high school. Being an avid AP student in high school, which comes along with tons of homework and tests, this semester was a piece of cake (besides calculus). One of my favorite things about being in college is the late classes. I honestly don’t know how I survived waking up everyday at 6:30 in high school.

My favorite enrichment workshop would have to be the trip to the Rubin museum. I’ve always liked museums to begin with, burt had not had the chance to observe tibetan art. I don’t know much about the buddha and it was interesting to learn about the different hand gestures and positions and what they meant. I thought the atmosphere of the museum was very serene, quiet and reserved and allowed one to carefully look at each display. I thought the meditation room a nice touch and gave one the full effect of a part of a certain aspect of buddhism. I’m always up for learning about new cultures and thought the museum was extremely informative and interesting to learn about.
