I would say that I am a bunch of things all bundled up into one person. I currently am just a college freshman trying to figure out who I am. I am someone who is trying to experience everything in search for answers. Whatever obstacles come my way I try to overcome it. I enjoy having a goal in life, but I also like to have fun and go with the flow.
Enrolling as a freshman at a new school I am worried that about not doing well in school, not being able to balance everything, and not being able to figure out my major. I want to be able to maintain a high GPA, but it is difficult for me to study subjects that I have no interest in. I’m also concerned about the workload here, I want to be able to have a little balance of everything: my friends, family, and school. Another concern is spending so many years in college and still not being able to figure out what I want to major in. I would be wasting my parent’s money as well as not moving forward.
I think the whole general way that college works will make my experience at Baruch College different from my high school experience. I don’t have as many classes as before and I have more freedom as well. I also came from a small school so it is different seeing a greater number of students. Being in the city is also a different experience for me since my high school was in Queens.
My first year at Baruch will definitely help shape me to become more independent and more mature. I believe that here it is a time to experience and see things that I have never done or seen before. College is an important part of my life and I really want to do well. I think that college will ultimately help me to become a better person because here I will learn what is right and what is wrong for me.
