On Thursday, the Seventh of September, 2017, I wandered the hallways of Baruch College Newman and Anita Campus during lunch and searched for a club to participate in. I decided to partake in this activity because I did not want to be lonely every Tuesday and Thursday after lunch with nothing to do for two and a half hours, and also I wanted to graduate in less than four years, so it is absolutely imperative that I do not repeat Freshman Seminar class. Unfortunately, being a new and lost freshman, I was not very good at finding places in such a huge and foreign place. Thus, I ended up riding the elevators up and down and up and down, and tiring myself by climbing the same steps of stairs repeatedly, all the while managing to pass by club rooms. I traversed deeper and deeper into the tunnel of helplessness, but by pure luck I saw a ray light at the end of the tunnel on the ninth floor. I chased after my last hope of salvation against a second semester of freshman seminar (this was before I realized I could complete the assignment during Tuesday), and chance delivered me upon the doors of the Anime Club.  I realized right away I have encountered a golden opportunity destined to enrich my student life at Baruch College.I realized for the first time here that I wasn’t alone, that there are many of my peers who also share similar hobbies and interests as me. I really like the anime club and am planning on joining it because I think it’s a really great way to make friends who I can rant to about manga and anime and de-stress myself during midterms and finals. Eleven more words for the three hundred mark. Thanks for reading.
