Stereologue

My name is Shane, I am an aspiring musician/music producer who makes electronic, rock, metal, and hip hop music. Music is the most important thing to me because I listen to it and write it everyday and I spend most of my time doing something music related. On the other hand, the least important thing to me is school because it takes away time that I could use for music, and I have to pay to go somewhere that will allow me to get a career that I don’t even really want to pursue. I have no time to excel in either school or music because they both take over each other and I can’t choose just one, and I feel eventually they will counter each other for so long I will go nowhere in life. Then there’s work, which also interferes with music but I need it to get money to survive and to buy music equipment, which I wouldn’t mind if the customers weren’t so !@#$ing annoying as !@#$!@#$!@#$!@#$!@#$. I should end this before it turns into a 10 page rant about foreigners who don’t know how to order food at my job.

Rajbir’s Monologue

Hi, I’m Rajbir. I’m a friendly person who just does not like to make the first move. But when you take a step forward and get to know me, trust me, I’m a really fun person to be with. I love dancing a lot ! Any opportunity I get, I just grab onto it. While I love dancing, i hate vegetables. Why does everything non tasty have to be so healthy? 🙁 Well anyways, I identify myself as a daughter, sister, and best friend. But I play the role of a daughter and sister the most. My family always comes first. Every member of my family has done something for me, whether it be big or small, and I greatly appreciate them. The things I don’t appreciate are spiders. I’m really afraid of spiders. Even though the thought of them being in my house disgusts me, I do not like killing them. However, I do make other people kill them for me. The times that I feel empowered are when I pray. Praying really does make me happy. My personal motto is to never give up, no matter how many failures come your way. Our life would be boring if we did not have any failures. But when success comes knocking on our door, you’ll feel accomplished because you know you went through a lot. And my greatest accomplishment is to have made it this far in life. 🙂

Rubin Museum

I love museums and have learned to really appreciate art and cultural pieces of work. The museum was interesting because the whole museum seemed to be about Southern Asian culture and art. I loved the sanskrit writing and also the process on how they make statues.

Breanna Monologue

Writing about your life is hard; it is hard deciding which moments are more important than others, and which things about you should hide or share. As you can tell I think a lot, I am very introspective but can also be obnoxiously loud . During high school I battled with clinical depression, I hate telling people because everyone seems to think they know but they don’t. I am very proud of myself because I can control my emotions better, and I no longer get panic attacks. I have matured a lot, but I try also to not take life to seriously. I love to party, go out to eat, and experience the city. I love my friends and family with all my heart, and they  make me feel like the luckiest girl in the world.  I want to travel,  experience life, be happy, and have awesome relationships.

Priyanka’s monologue

Hi.

My life is good I think even though, I am still unsure of what to do in life. For the first time, I saw a lot of hardships when I was in Nepal a few years ago. One of it was seeing young children selling postcards and, asking for food and money in tourist attractions. They should be in school but they were out in the capital city streets trying to survive. I saw young children studying and doing their homework using candles or torch lights. Even though I was living comfortably, I disliked my stay during the first few weeks because of the new environment. But, I am glad my parents brought me along to Nepal for a visit. My experiences in Nepal made me appreciate many things. I wish I was a fairy godmother and send all the young kids to school. I admire people who have already found their interest in life and are making their dream come true. Sometimes, I wish I could just curl up in bed and hibernate.. I had taken basic accounting classes just for the fun of it in school when I was in Singapore. I guess that was the reason why I decided to come to Baruch to major in business. Despite living in a place with endless possibilities I am clueless. Oh well but still, I am extremely grateful to my parents for funding my education and fulfilling my desires. I chose to go to college. I do enjoy my classes most of the time even though I drag myself to college. I know I am still a freshmen and it is okay to be confused. I am sure there are others who feel the same way. But, I hope I will not be for a long time.
Man, I need more positivity in my life.

What’s Happening

I didn’t want to go to college, I thought it was just another institution you give money to so they can demand things from you. This has not changed. I have been coerced to go to college and if I could get out without consequences I would. So long as I’m here, however, I will finish what I start. I intend to get at least some of my money’s worth. I plan on getting good grades, good connections, and a good job. I’ll probably die trying. The only service here I’m genuinely grateful for is the gym.

When corporations get bailouts, it’s called having business acumen and when poor people get welfare, it’s called being entitled. When you criticize Christianity or Islam, you get called an atheist or a hater at worst but when you criticize Judaism, you get called an anti-semite. Israel recently became the only country ever to boycott the UN Human Rights Council, a council that includes North Korea. This is because Israel was recently found to have been comitting genocide on Ethiopian jews by forcing birth control on them. But you don’t hear the media reporting this. The most you hear about Israel is how Obongo and Netanwacko are having peace talks, meanwhile Israel just yesterday broke the ceasefire truce between it and Palestine by firing missiles at Gaza. North Korea just held a South Korean factory and 400 of its’ workers hostage. Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa are planning to form their own world bank and currency to free themselves from the crashing euro and the petrodollar. World War Three is upon us, the question is whether it is going to be cold or hot.

The more you know.

Monologue

  The more introspection I do, the more convinced I am that I was born in the wrong century.  But then I don’t really care much for the Spanish Flu or the Bubonic Plague.  I appreciate that in our society, the fact that women can vote or the fact that multiracial couples exist isn’t shocking anymore.  I suppose when it comes down to it my problem is:   I long for simpler times.  I long for the days when the problems of the world were more basic rather than superficial.  But then if you think about it, the centuries prior to ours aren’t really “simpler”.  I mean at a certain point, living past sixty meant you were ancient.  Nowadays, people live up to eighty or one hundred, and it’s not unheard of.  If you really think about it, we really are a lucky bunch.  As residents of a first world country, especially, we are exposed to the best things life can offer.  Therefore, we should all be in a constant state of joy and contentment.  But we aren’t.  And it got me thinking; maybe we create our own problems.  Maybe if we just looked at what we have and stopped wishing for more and more, maybe we would be better off.  I realize that some people still go unsheltered or unfed.  But for a person such as I who have all the basic needs, what truly is my problem? 
  I’m looking at the general structure of my school building.  It’s clean and in certain parts, there’s an ample amount of natural light, but the floors are plain black and the walls are plain white.  And it seems to be that way throughout the seventeen floors.  And how appropriately so; it’s primarily a business school and it’s supposed to prepare its students for the business world.  The business world can be exciting and even rewarding to those who really love the industry.  But for a person like me, who is unsure where my passions lie, between the long hours and the spreadsheets, I think I’d rather buy a ruin in Europe and run a bed and breakfast.  So what in the world am I doing here?  I suppose for practicality’s sake, I decided to take a course that can help secure my future.  But after thorough deliberation, I realize that my dreams aren’t grand.  As painfully cheesy as it sounds, I really just want to be happy wherever I end up.  But then again, I’m only a freshman and I have a long way to go.  Who knows?  Maybe I’ll end up liking business after all.

Blog Post #2

I’m not entirely sure what the structure of this blog is intended to be but essentially it seems to me that it should resemble a biography of sorts.

My name is Olger Solano. I’m not entirely sure where my first name comes from but I’ve heard that it may be a form from the Scandinavian name Holger. Although I’m thoroughly Ecuadorian. Essentially who I am is not the sum of all the basic facts that you may find in a data base but by my relation to others. After high school I helped take care of my mother and helped raise my little sister. All functions of my existence had those two ideas as constants. That I was a son and a brother. Everything else about me is in flux as I grow and accumulate more experiences. I’m not sure what else we spoke about in class… I have a bleeding heart but don’t really like people much. I’m determined to do well in my classes and I work a lot. When or if I get some free time I hope to spend it biking around the Manhattan Waterfront Greenway.

Annisa’s Monologue

I am Annisa rahman, a girl of 20 years old. I am curious in nature and love to live with my close persons all through my life. To me, life is an opportunity. I have only one life time to see, to taste, to know and to share. I feel so sad when I found a relationship is broken or ended for whatever reason I might have. I identify myself as a shy girl, but very talkative with known person. I identify myself as a daughter, sister, lover and probably a future mother. I like family, I am a family person. My family includes my mother, my sister, my cousins and my friends also. Relationship is the most important thing to me in my life. Because these are priceless things you can ever have. I represent myself as a citizen of Bangladesh, a small Asian country. I was just chasing my dream and eventually got admitted here in the Baruch College. I am afraid of getting lost from known place, known persons and I also fear when people get furious and kill other people. A single smile of my loving person can make my whole day. But sometimes, I need a lot of food and good sleep to sooth me. I always try to avoid hurting others but sometimes I end up hurting my families or friends. Those are the most embarrassing situations for me. But if anyhow, I can make myself useful to any others need, that is the moment to rejoice for me. I feel so good of myself and start to see the world as a place of hope. My personal motto is, “live, laugh and love”. Because I just said, I have only one life to do all my crazy things and I don’t want to regret for any misuse of time in past that I shouldn’t have done. I am pretty satisfied with my life. A caring and lovely mother and a best friend, who happens to be my life partner, are the biggest accomplishment I had so far. They added color to my life and make my living worthy here.
