Hello, everybody, as I’ve said in the title, my name is Jiancong Lai. I was born in China, and I came to the United States about five years ago. When first arrived in the U.S., my family settled down in Staten Island. I went to a public junior high school located in Staten Island for one term before my family moved to Brooklyn. And after my four-year learning in James Madison High School, now I was in Baruch.
I do agree that I am a quiet person, as I always focus on my works quietly. But with the people who I get familiar with, I would be more outspoken. After all, I am very happy to know more people and make more friends. Unlike most of other boys, my favorite sport is swimming, not playing basketball, and this should be attributed to my childhood experience. I began to wear glasses at the age of ten, and I only took them off when going to sleep. In this way, my glasses were broken for several times as I played basketball with my friends or classmates in school. So gradually, I avoided playing basketball, and turned to enjoy swimming.
Coming to Baruch, a school being well-known of its business courses, my intended major, like many of you guys, is accounting. Hopefully I can get into Zicklin School of Business with a decent GPA.
