College

Posted by SHIRLEY in Uncategorized

Entering Baruch college was not what I was expecting. It’s not very different from high school considering there is no campus life. On Mondays through Thursdays, I do the same thing every day. I go to school and then go to work. I’ve tried looking around for clubs and be more active as a college student, but work has been getting in the way. I am still learning how to manage my time and use it wisely.

It is almost the end of the semester. It has been an okay experience. I’ve never written so many papers in such a small amount of time. Or at least it feels like a short amount of time…maybe because I procrastinate way too much. I’ve never spent so much money on transportation. I’ve never been so stressed about school. I’m not doing as good as I should be and my grades are reflecting on that. I’ve been trying hard to pick up my grades and I’m hoping it will pay off.

However, I am enjoying the freedom. I also really like having Fridays off. It’s nice to have an extra day to sleep in. I am enjoying being in the city. The dollar pizzas and other nice food places around Baruch are a plus. But buying lunch every day can be a little pricey. I try to bring my lunch as often as I can but sometimes I just don’t have time in the morning. Especially since I am always in a rush to get out of the house.

Next semester, I will definitely try harder and study at any time I can. Because I am so shy, I haven’t been making many friends. I will try to be more outgoing and make lots of new friends. I am looking forward to the upcoming years.

This was when Youn, me, and Tiffany took a picture during class.

    I agree, it seems like the papers just never end. Even when you try to start them early it just never works out the way you planned……

    I agree with you, managing your time and and using it wisely has been very hard during college especially because of all the free time we get. I wish you luck on your next semester goals!
