Michelle Lee

Hey! My name’s Michelle Lee, I’m 18 years old, and I live in Queens. Baruch College is one of my top choices and being here today is amazing! Like most students I want to major in accounting. I come from a family of 3 siblings and me being the oldest. However, not many people notice that I’m the oldest since my sister is taller than me. It sucks being only 5 feet when your sister, two years younger than you, is 5’4 but ohwells. I also have a younger brother and thank goodness he isn’t as tall as me yet! Although they may be annoying at times, I’ll still love them at the end of the day. If it wasn’t for siblings, my days and nights would probably be very boring.

These four people are very important to me. I still remember the day I met Patricia(on the left) like it was just yesterday. The first thing she asked me was “Can I see your English hw?” After that day, we became best friends and not only is she my best friend, she’s my ‘twin’. People always get us confused (I swear it’s because we are the same height). My other best friend, Kelly (on the right) and I met in junior high. As years came by, we became closer and closer. It was fate we said; our parents met when they boarded the same plane when they first came to America. We are the second generation! The two guys in the back are my ‘brothers’, the older brothers that I’ve never had.

This group of people here are amazing! They were always there for me no matter what. I spent most of my senior year of high school with them and we have been through so much. They make up the person I am today. We helped and guided each other into our paths in life. I’m always stressing over small things and these people calm my nerves down. We never let each other down.

I love to travel although I didn’t go on many family vacations. My favorite vacation was going to California. If I am able to, I would just pack my bags right now and hop on a plane to Cali. It is amazing there. The scenery was gorgeous and I would do anything to be able to live there.

One of the first clubs that I joined was Key Club. Key Club also carved me into the person I am today. I learned a lot through the walks and volunteer work that I did. You get a good feeling after helping someone. About every two weeks, there would’ve been an event and my friends are I are usually the first ones to sign up. We were very dedicated to Key Club.

Aside from Key Club, I love to work with kids. I’ve done summer camps as well as tutoring. These little adorable kids made me love to work with kids even more. I spent one of my summers with pre-kindergarteners and they were so sweet and caring. They loved me as much as I love them. Even though I love working with kids, accounting will still be my career.

My hobbies are cooking and listening to music. Usually when I’m not busy, you’ll see me standing next to the stove/oven. I like to try new things. Music is my escape from reality. When I need a break from the world, I would stick my headphones in and relax.

Well, here’s just a little something about me!
