my baruch expereince so far is a good one. this is not how i expected my college life to be however. my grades are not as good as they can be and i know i have to improve them. i also do not like my hour commute every morining and every night. i live on long island and it get really annoying riding the train. this first semester has taught me a lot about myself however. i learned that i need to be more responsible. i have a tendancy to push off assignments unitl last minute and that is why im not doing too great with my grades. i also have to manage my time better. at this age parties and having fun intrests me but i understand that i have to be responsibe and control myself. i hope that my expereince only gets better as it goes on.

I listen to music all the time. Whether im at home, walking through the city, or at work my ipod is always playing. Music gives me a chance to get away from everything and just relax. My favorite type of music is rap or hip hop. I cant say that i have a specific favorite rapper because there are too many rappers with unique styles. Here are some songs that i listen to.

1. Wiz Khalifa – Work Hard Play Hard – This song relates to me because wiz is trying to teach us to work hard for what we want no matter what it is. If you want something you cant just wait for someone to hand it to you, you need to take it.

2. Drake – Successful – Drake tells us that all he wants out of life is to be successful. He wants big houses, nice cars, pretty girls, and lots of clothes. My goals are similar to his, i want to be successful and have everything i have ever dreamed about.

3. Big Sean ft French Montana – Mula – The name of the song is Mula which makes it clear what this song is about. Big Sean says that there is nothing more important than money. I want to make a lot of money and im determined to do so.

4. Dj Drama ft Meek Mill, 2 Chainz, Jeremih – My Moment – These 4 rappers talk about how all they need is 1 moment. Like them, I also need one moment. Once i get a moment and an opportunity, i will take advantage of it.

5. Lil Wayne – Misunderstood – Lil Wayne raps about how many people dont understand who he truly is. Noone knows what he has been through, yet they judge what he does and what he says. I too think that i am misunderstood at times. There are very few that actually know the real me.

6. Eminem – Till I Collapse – While growing up Eminem had a very harsh childhood. He learned alot from the environment he was in though. In this song he tells us that he wont stop until he collapses. He is not a quitter. This track inspires me to be strong.

7. Eminem – The Way I Am- Eminem accepts the person he is. Even though he may not be a perfect human being, he is strong inside and holds his head up. This song shows me to be strong and not let anyone tell me that im not right in any way.

8. Jadakiss – What if – This song makes me think. I feel like one decision that i make can change the future in many ways. What if i went back in time and made a couple of different choices, would i be at Baruch? Would i be who i am?

9. Meek Mill ft Rick Ross – Imma Boss – This is a pump up song that i listen to before i play any sports. This song is always playing when im at the gym working out.

10. Young Jeezy – Put on – young jeezy talks about his city and how much he loves it. Im from massapequa and no matter where i might end up i will always remember it. I experienced many things in Massapequa and have memories that i will remember forever.
