I decided to pick this picture to describe my experience so far in Baruch for a couple of of reasons. I work very hard in this school in order to have the grades that i have received in my classes.  I know I have just begun my college career and understand that I need to maintain this attitude. I also have a new challenge coming up in the second semester. i have to find away to manage my time efficiently between playing baseball for the school and doing well in all my classes. This is going to be challenging. but I like challenges and feel that I can overcome anything that I set my mind to. I am a very determined person and know that I will find the proper balance between balancing my studies and playing baseball. I hope to do well in both baseball and school in the upcoming semester. I believe that if you preserve through hard times, you will feel better and have a sense of accomplishment when you see all the achievements and happy times that you were able to create through this process of persevering. The lesson that I learned from this photograph is that even when you have persevered through a hard situation or task, a new even harder task or situation might come about that you may have to persevere through as well. That is pretty much all I have to say and this is making this blog longer so yea. Thats it.
