This meme accurately describes my experience at Baruch this semester. This is because college has been non-stop studying which is something that I never did in high school. We previously have had a math and psychology exam on the same day twice so it’s been very stressful trying to study for both exams. All this studying and stress has been causing me to feel tired because I have not been getting enough sleep.. I have literally been living off of caffeine just so that I can get all of my assignments and studying done on time so that I can pass all of my courses and maintain a high grade point average. After coming to Baruch what I learned about myself is that I’m more independent than I’ve given myself credit for. Having to commute from Long Island on the LIRR and then having to walk from Penn to Baruch and having to commute back to Long Island to the ADA’s office alone is something that I wouldn’t have imagined myself doing all by myself especially without my parent’s support. At first I hated FRO because it was a zero credit course and it seemed kind of pointless to even show up, and I would have rather left early on Wednesdays but overall it was a fun, enjoyable, and educational experience which I’m going to miss coming to. My favorite memory in our FRO class is definitely from Convocation Day. This is because we were able to meet new people and reunite with people we previously had met at orientation. What I will look forward to in the next semester is meeting new people, forming new friendships, trying new things and having a schedule that works best for me so I’m not so sleep deprived.
