Monologue

Another day I get stuck in the train

Prefect time for me to be late

I always wounder

Did lady luck even smile to me

From time to time we all get a hankering for something a little different

Dose the life I’m living

really fit to me

I also have a dream

Someday I can be free

Getting rid of the cage where I’m staying

Be a person I always want to be

There is no lie

There is no trap

Where I can really feel free

 

 

Recruitment fair

On April 6, I went to the recruitment fair which took place on the camps  by the Baruch Consulting Club. The purpose of this club is to expand the horizons and the possibilities of what our school and our students can do in the Consulting world.  We provide the necessary tools to support our members in their journey towards a fascinating career in the consulting industry.Even I didn’t come to seek a job,it was still let me learned a lot about contemporary society. The whole lecture was really impressed and the staffs were friendly.The professional consultants talked about the own experience of their career, and shared their tips on how to start your path to Consulting.I really learned a lot during this lecture.

Rubin Mesum of Art

On February 27 ,I went to the Rubin Mesum of Art.  The Rubin Museum of Art is dedicated to the collection, display, and preservation of the art and cultures of the Himalayas, India and neighboring regions, with a permanent collection focused particularly on Tibetan art. And it displays more than 1,000 objects including paintings, sculpture, and textiles, as well as ritual objects from the 2nd to the 20th centuries. The new facade on 17th Street and the five floors of galleries were influenced by Tibetan art, and were conceived by New York-based museum architects Celia Imrey and Tim Culbert.Its graphic identity was conceived by graphic designer Milton Glaser. Also The Rubin Museum offers an array of on- and off-site educational programs, as well as public programs such as talks and discussions; film screenings; live music, dance, poetry and other performances; and art demonstrations. The museum continues to refine a museum-wide access program in order to meet the needs of individuals with disabilities and special needs, language challenges, and at-risk and underserved segments of the population. A visit to the Rubin Museum is enhanced by the presence of guides in the galleries, American Sign Language tours, verbal imaging and touch tours, and a wheelchair-accessible facility. Assistive listening devices and wheelchairs are also provided. I really enjoyed this trip.

The Major and Minor Fair

Last Tuesday, I went to the major and minor fair  which in order to help students understand the majors and minors that we can take in the college. After I went there,I can say it was a really interesting fair for me,I did get more understanding about our school’s majors and minors,and the adviser touched us how to improve our’s  resume and experience for getting a internship.

I’m so glad that I went to the fair,or I wouldn’t know so much information at once

The Major and Minor Fair

It was a delightful event to attend: The Major and Minor Fair. Fortunately, it didn’t make me change my mind about my career or major choices, but I was very thankful to get help from people like Emily, and Eric, who were the representatives of the majors of Zicklin. I got to explore other majors and minors that I wasn’t aware of, and I’m grateful that I know all the options that I have regardless of the possibilities that I would change my career route. Thanks Baruch!

Ninos de Mannahatta (monologue)

Adopted by the power of the borough

Not even holding their parents’ hands

Naturally observing the unnatural life so

Thorough

Witnessing the dirty and crude

Those that don’t bother them

The red Elmo and blue Cookie Monster

Which one to be when I grow up

Because nothing censors any

Unlike those suburban pot flowers of Greenwich

We grow so tough and rude

Not to undermine class

But to survive and live to last

Jazz and noise is what makes us anticipate

And finally reach the age where we think back

This is so exciting, this island is so inviting

Monologue

Ever thought back to a moment, that changes your life completely. It completely defines who you are today, how you think, how you see things, and how you think others see you. Everything happened so fast. One moment, I was walking down stairs; next my head was quickly approaching concrete stairs. Everything went silent and dark. It felt like hours, but in reality it was only seconds. I remember opening my eyes to a dozen of other eyes, all filled with fear and concerned. But I didn’t understand the look in their eye. I felt perfectly fine. It was only when I stood, did I realized something wasn’t right. I was sweating too much, too heavy. When I tried to wipe it away, I realized it wasn’t sweat but blood- it was my blood. There was blood gushing from my head, dripping down to my cheeks. There was blood everywhere, blood on my face, my clothes, and the floor. I remember closing my eyes just for a second-I just wanted a quick nap. When I opened my eyes, I was at the hospital. My head was all patched up. I was almost as good as new. ALMOST. It wouldn’t be for another couple of months did I realize I was missing something valuable- my sense of smell. Yeah, you heard right- my sense of smell was nonexistent. Apparently when I hit my head Im knocked out more than just my blood. Realizing I couldn’t smell, was like having a door slammed in your face, hard. Doctors were no help, they couldn’t explain why or how it happened. They couldn’t found a solution. I am/have anosmia- that the term to explain the absence of the sense of smell. You never know what you have until you lose it. I never gave my ability to smell such great appreciation, until now. I can’t even remember what anything smells like. But I think worst of all is the looks- the looks people give me, when I tell them I am anosmia. They look at me like I just made that up. Some even laugh at me- like it is actually funny to be disabled. Because thats what I am- disabled. I may not be deaf or blind but being anosmia is a disability, yes its rare but it is a disability. I sometimes get so angry at people because they won’t even think about laughing at a blind, deaf or handicap person- but they don’t think twice about laughing at me.

The Major and Minor Fair

I went to the major and minor fair last Tuesday, it was really helpful. Frankly, as a freshman of a commute college, it’s kind of hard for me to really bound to the school. This kind of Fairs assist me to solve my question about major and minor. I was confused about if we can declare our minor first, then the major. They told me it would be totally fine if I want to declare my minor first, besides, everyone can have two minors if we want. Major and minor don’t have to be related, we can feel free to choose what we really want to learn.

Monologue

I would never forget the midnight.
Demon smile at me,
Danger surrounded me.
Fear, silence, and loneliness
Until a glimmer, a gleaming light!
The second lamp ignited,
Nothing could stop me, just riding as wind,
Nothing could stop me, just riding as fire.

The echo of saving our brother shall never end.
It was cried for survival,
It was cried for saving,
Forever in everyone’s heart.
From now on this heroic exploits,
Whatever the how dark the period is,
Should be going through our history to last,
Listen, my children!

When the day comes cold,
The sun never gold,
And our live fold.
But now is your new freedom age,
None slaves and stress in the cage.
I feel fire in my bone,
In this new century people will not moan,
That’s time to move on.

My children, you are born after dark,
No more weapon with spark.
Listen, armies come,
Time to put up your gun.
See two lantern to light,
The sun always bright.
No one will die,
And people never sigh.

Major Minor Fair

Last week, we heard about the Major and Minor Fair from email. My friends and I decided to go to the Major and Minor Fair Thursday. It is really joyful because I love how the Baruch community helps each individuals. When i walk into the room, I saw a lot of desks with all the major and minor placed on top. There are a lot of professor and student leaders willing to help us if we have any question. For me, I haven’t decide a specific major yet, but I know what area i will go for. Since I had photography experience before, I will probably go for it as a Minor. Overall, I learned and absorbed a lot of information from it. I am really thankful for Baruch.
