The modern day college student as played by Leo Dicaprio
When the semester was initially beginning I felt a kind of euphoria. I was engrossed by many of the college cliches which pervade the media and stories. As time went on, I settled into a routine as usual, discovering that the college experience (at least mine), isn’t what everyone makes it out to be. I actually thought I would have a lot of free time, but found that while it may exist on paper, studying and other responsibilities seem to take up the bulk of such a precious commodity. And the Baruch “campus” experience has been slightly embellished (let’s be honest here). But I am making the best of it, and actively pursuing cultural opportunities, which a city like New York can offer.
With all that said, I wholly appreciate some things in my first semester. I would like to give a shout out to my English class for without which, I might’ve been much more critical towards Baruch. It has really expanded my breathe, towards the literary arts, my own culture, and the continuities that mark every society. Shout out to fro too; once we got past the ice breakers it became more enjoyable. I enjoy my biology classes somewhat as well. I have also met some great people who I can converse with intellectually, and on comedic level.
This is only the first semester, there will be more time for us to uncover who we are, and ultimately what we want to study. I, myself, may be slowly realizing that I actually don’t care for math.I want to become an interpretive dancer! Just kidding, ha
