During the summer before class began at Baruch, I was chatting with a few of my upperclassmen friends about advice at Baruch. A few of them mentioned joining a club at the beginning to help make new friends as well as to help waste time during those club hours. Two of them recommended me to come and check out the ESA club which hosted events and activities that I was mildly interested in. Influenced by the people around me to join this club I went with a few of my friends to their first Interest Meeting on 9/7/17 to find a lot of people happened to share the same interest with me. In that room, there were at least forty others that were at the meeting. They gave us an explanation about the club and broke us up into groups to get to know each other more. It was fun to find out what other people thought about the activities that I enjoyed. They also gave out refreshments and pizza which was also a bonus. After the icebreakers, it became a socializing room where everyone would just get together and have conversations about many different things. It’s really nice when you get to meet people for the first time in your life and a few minutes later you go on to being good friends. Everyone began socializing for the next hour or so like they knew each other. It was as if everyone came together and just forgot about their downs and only focused on the ups. Coming to the first general interest meeting for ESA helped me make new friends, create my first few steps as a first year at Baruch.
