The following is a random selection from my “recently played” playlist on my itunes account. For those people that do not know me, I am a HUGE music fan. To me music is much more than an art expression; I consider music to be one of the biggest aspects of my daily life. I am one of those people that must absolutely, without question, have some sort of music enabling device with me at all times. I sometimes think to myself, if there is something wrong with me. I can’t see myself going to the gym unless I have an ipod, I cant see myself walking to school unless I have an ipod, its soo crazy that I even look for my ipod when I walk downstairs my home to retrieve the mail. Music is truly one of my greatest joys. I consider every song in my music library to be a representation of myself. Whether im happy, energetic, or relaxing all the songs in my ipod provide a unique peace of mind. I especially like kid cudi and electric because they either have lyrics I can relate to and melodies that keep me going.

Crazy.

Very interesting. Surprisingly I learned much about myself and what I can handle. It’s crazy how things can change during the course of a semester, helps you understand that in some ways college does change you. And even if it doesn’t then you change while IN college and therefore this becomes a very crucial and pivotal role in who we become. Although you may not learn something new in every class, you do learn something life-worthy, whether it be dealing with a difficult professor or learning that you don’t like morning classes, (why because your not a morning person?), either way, take that information and let it help you guide which doors you open. I learned its not as important to follow in someone footsteps because you want to be like them, but more or less see where you would want to be and what works for you, because ultimately its your ass in that seat, so own it!

It won’t let me add an image

My first semester at Baruch has been great. I really haven’t had any problems, I met some really amazing people and now I’m kind of sad the first semester is over. I have loved all my classes, despite the crazy English professor and stressful research paper. Although Baruch and living in NYC have been amazing, I am looking forward to going home for the summer. I miss my dogs! And family and friends.

I have just got the keys to the apartment my friends and I are sharing next semester which is soooo close to school. So, goodbye dorms! I am excited for the fall semester now, but I REALLY need a job on campus. I’m not liking being a poor student.

My first semester Baruch went very well. I got to meet new people and make some good friends. During the semester I cans say I became more mature but a little reckless on spending money (which probably is going to get worse) but I’m trying my best.  This year was a new and fun experience that I wish to continue to have during the rest of my stay at Baruch.

“HAPPY”
First semester at Baruch was pretty good. Excited for the semesters to come, but still so happy this one is over. Thanks to the best FRO advisers!

The following is an imagine that represents one of my current feeling towards my first semester at Baruch College. Like everyone else, entering their freshman year of college, this is a new experience. I came into Baruch just a few months ago, seeking to learn and meet new people. High school was an experience in itself, I made great friends, created treasured memories, however I eagerly anticipated the fall semester because it brought the chance of change. Unlike most I do not mind changes in my life, as a matter of fact I find it interesting and exciting. What a better way to bring change into my life than to start school in the city, in a very diverse school atmosphere. To bring about change would require me to be outgoing, try new things, and not be afraid to leave my comfort zone. But how to bring about change? I originally envisioned this to be an easy tasks, I thought “oh I’ll meet new classmates and they’ll be my new friends” or “oh I’ll work less and join clubs to try new things.” As idealistic as these thoughts sound, I failed to do most of them this semester. With work and school work, I find myself nowadays with little to no time for social activities. As people often tell me, my ambition to be the best always gets in the way of my social life. Whether I’m witting a paper or present at work, being the best is essential to me, I more than often sacrifice social time to achieve my goals. So back to my picture “I have no idea what I’m doing” I see myself in a slump when it comes to balancing my personal and academic life. Well it is really my personal, work, and academic life. I thought it would all be easy but although I excel in certain aspects of my life I fail to meet up to the expectations of the other. I really seem to have no idea what I am doing haha

Dear Baruch,

Looking back on all the stressing tests, assignments, research projects, and never ending lectures i an honestly say it was a lot of fun.  I started this semester with wet feet and a cinder block between my ears.  Now that I have my first semester under my belt I feel like a super hero, ready to take on any adventure.  No task is to challenging to excel at.

The friends I have made this semester are one of a kind and uniquely unparalleled in their support, knowledge, teamwork, and humor.  The laughs I have shared with these fine students will never be forgotten or surpassed. I have never had the pleasure of so quickly finding such upstanding individuals in a new environment. From the first  week of classes we have been inseparable during break times between classes.  I owe much more than grades to them, as they kept intact my sanity at times of utter bewilderment and confusion. Together we tackle the hardest of assignments without breaking a sweat, we cover for one another when the trains are messed up and we know one of us will be late for class, and remind each other of not only homework but also what floor the class is on at times…. (Lo Beezy)  Laughter is a constant and doesn’t stop for class or a lecture. The laughter in a crazy haze of mind numbing euphoria keeps us sane during times of pressure. I have never laughed so hard as I have in these past six months.

Baruch has given me the inner fortitude and reassertion of my capabilities as a student that i will carry with me for the rest of my life. i look forward to my next three years here and hope they don’t go by too fast.
