The Baruch career fair has been an incredible and fulfilling experience for me. I was able to meet many employers of many major and minor corporations, and was able to receive a taste of how the hiring process worked. It was also an opportunity to showcase my communicative skills and provide others with my expertise and my perspective on many topics. I was able to interact with my Baruch peers and work with many staff during this event and it greatly helped me learn much more about career applications and the entire process. I learned that a good resume and a firm handshake can come in handy when introducing yourself. Additionally, I observed that first impressions are extremely important, so it would be very helpful to maintain a professional attitude when interacting with others throughout the event.  Overall, it was a fulfilling event for me as I was able to interact with others and learn more about the employment process.

Having not visited a museum in ages, I was compellingly astonished during my visit to the Metropolitan Museum of Art this past week. I had expected a mundane and boring day at the museum but I was quite wrong. The sheer amount of artwork and history present at the museum baffled my mind as I began asking myself questions such as how was all this art moved into the museum and how were all these paintings and sculptures created. One profound impression this visit to the museum left on me was the power of the aesthetically pleasing paintings and artwork. The paintings, particularly the paintings of the classical era, left a lasting impression on my portrayal and understanding of art and aesthetics. The proportions and emotions of the subjects thoroughly impressed me and made me wonder how such masterpieces were created. Similar thoughts appeared in my head throughout the day as I gained a deeper understanding of art and its impact on human civilization. I hope that one day I would be able to wield such aesthetic power and impact in whatever it is that I do. I would definitely revisit this museum next time and hopefully be able to learn even more about the world of aesthetically pleasing paintings.
