This meme embodies my experiences because coffee has become a necessity in my daily routine. I’ve always enjoyed having some coffee, but this enjoyment  has only intensified throughout college. For the post part I have had …

My Experience at Baruch

http://lickettysplitt.tumblr.com/post/45623301274/dont-know-the-source-but-its-a-fantastic-idea (source: tumblr blog) My time at Baruch thus far has been similar to what the GIF above shows, doing something that seems simple and ruining it. The GIF is of a man measuring a door and losing control of the measuring tape. It seems like a pretty easy task to do; only a very …

Rubin Museum

At first I was skeptical about the trip to the Rubin. I didn’t expect it to be as interesting as it was. I didn’t know much about the themes of the exhibits. The Asian theme expanded on the culture, history and artistry of Buddhism and Hinduism. The craftsmanship involved in the creation of the statuses, …

Rubin Museum Trip

The trip to the Rubin Museum was alright, as far as field trips go. The museum had many interesting exhibits and really shed a light on artwork not usually seen. The museum has a great feel to it because it is quiet and the lighting is well placed. You are really allowed to soak in …

But now it sucks less. I think being accustomed to the routine and becoming familiar with the environment in these past three months has …

An experience never to be forgotten…

In the Summer of 2010, I went on a service trip to the Navajo Reservation in New Mexico to help out the kids in different things. When I arrived at the reservation, I noticed many things that would I would never forget. First, was how barren the land was. These Navajo natives lived in such …

The Rubin Museum: In all honesty, I didn’t learn a whole lot during the trip to the Rubin Museum, but the trip in itself was interesting. In the museum, we learned about different Asian cultures and religions such as Buddhism and Hinduism. I learned about the different “gods” or higher people that Buddhists looked up …

Rubin Museum of Art

Surprisingly I had never been to this museum before our FRO class trip and I love going to museums and things like that. Once I looked the museum up, I saw it was an art museum and my interest was peaked. Once we got there, I was happy to find out that Danny was taking …
