This semester has gone by so fast and every day you miss truly does feel like you miss everything. I wasn’t expecting to enjoy Baruch as much as I do and it has really been an incredible semester. I have made great friends and learned so much. Its also so cool to be exposed to so many different cultures and backgrounds, and people from all over new york. Although this semester hasn’t been very easy, I am finally starting to get the hang of this college thing. I learnt that i can cram extremely well for tests and papers (and especially blog posts) and i also learned that if you want to get anything done in Baruch you have to do it yourself because the services here are very unreliable. My favorite memory of FRO was when we played the game where you have to guess your profession. Mainly because I thought the game was ridiculous and it wasn’t really very informative. Another favorite part of the  Fro was when jess sand her dumb song. I also enjoyed becoming close with all the people in the FRO class, having a class where we can just relax and hang out was a good way to make everyone closer, although it would be much better if we received at least one credit for a class we have work in and have to go to every week.I think i actually have more work in FRO than in some of my other classes which is kind of ridiculous but its ok but it was still kind of fun. I can’t wait to start taking business courses next semester and really start to learn about the profession i want to go into. I will be taking Business and Business law as well as english, calc, and sociology. Although i have a good schedule I don’t have such good teachers in all my classes. I don’t have such a good english teacher but the rest of my professors are pretty good. A few of my classmates in FRO are taking the same classes as me next semester which is pretty cool cause ill already know people in some of my classes and I’m taking classes with friends of mine who aren’t in FRO.Ill definitely miss my classmates and teachers from this semester but I’m excited to start taking new courses and get closer to graduating and getting a job. I also can’t wait to hopefully get in internship this summer and these business courses Im taking this semester will help me get internships and some experience with the finance world. I also hope that i can learn useful things that i will use for the rest of my life in the classes I’m taking next semester, such as sociology and the Business courses. I will definitely miss the FRO class and all my classmates. but i am looking forward to continuing to learn a lot in Baruch college, and i hope that we will all be successful.

Jeremy Bock’s Awesome Playlist

http://grooveshark.com/playlist/Freshman+Seminar/100923966

This is my playlist

I decided to put a playlist as my post because I’m very into music and as you can tell by my playlist i am into a variety of different genres. Im also the type of person that can’t just sit around doing nothing and pretty much with everything that I’m doing, like working out, doing homework, to reading i need to be listening to music otherwise i can’t concentrate. The first song on my playlist is a personal favorite right now. I start every workout with this song and most people don’t know about it so your welcome. The next song on the playlist is a bit of a throwback song. Its from 2 or 3 years ago and its a great remix of an awesome song that got insanely overplayed when it came out, so this remix is a nice change of pace. In the summer camp i went to they would play this song 24/7 so it brings back some good camp memories. The next song is remix of radioactive by imagine dragons. I listened to imagine dragons non stop my entire senior year and now that I’m sick of most of their songs this remix is also a nice change of pace. So this next song is probably a personal favorite of mine being as that i believe that swedish house mafia was the best house group ever and them splitting up was one of my worst memories of high school (on the bright side I went to one of their last concerts at barclays center which was amazing). Invincible by bourgeois is a great song and i felt like a needed to put in a song sang by a girl so this was a good option. Now onto jay-z who is the man as everyone knows. This song brings me back to when austin powers came out and they made fun of this song in and it and it took me like 2 years after that to realize it was an actual song. Next up is Childish Gambino aka Donald Glover from the show community which is hilarious and everyone should watch it. He’s also a really good rapper and a genius when it comes to making up ridiculous lyrics. Next is a classic song by kid cudi, when he was still good (and evidently still smoking and drinking) called Soundtrack to my life which is very overshadowed by pursuit of happiness(another kid cudi song that is very popular) and i personally think that this song is better. Next is a throwback One republic song called secrets which is just a good song that i thought I would throw on because i like One republic and their old stuff is so much better than their new album. Next is Bleeding Out by imagine dragons which is my favorite imagine dragons song. The last song (yes i put 11) is a song in hebrew that was really popular in Israel the last few years although you guys probably don’t understand the lyrics its still a good song and for me it shows the mix between classic israeli culture and modern culture and how diverse israeli society is.
