Journal #3 Next Steps…..

December 5, 2013

There are many resources that Baruch provide and are very helpful. I have uses the library resources. The library database is good in writing paper in both English and Business. The database is easy to read and easy to access. I have also access that study room. It is very helpful in meeting up with my group and just work through the project. Baruch has many other resources that I hope to be able to use in the future semester for many of my classes.

Working and researching the community service project, I have gain a lot. Even though I have not yet volunteer and actually participate in the experience, I have expectation not only in the organization but also in myself. I expect to reach out of my comfort zone but re-finding it after doing it over and over again. Choosing Citymeals on Wheels allows me to, in my mind, “expand my circle.” Citymeals on Wheels provides me with the opportunity to meet people that I would not have otherwise meet. Going out and help these elderly would not only bring comfort to elderly but also allows me to open up. I hope to gain a lot and might allow me to easier to talk to others.

The next steps. It would be hard to picture myself years from now. Carpe Diem. Seize the day. I was always pressure by the question what would you do in 10 years. What would you like to do as a career? I remember a friend of mine response to these questions, as “I want to be happy.” And that is what I want to be happy. No matter what my choices in life or what path I choice, it is most important to be happy. To me, in the long run, I would like to not regret my decisions. So where would I be in 3 year? Happy.

    Ying,

    Now that you mastered some of the foundations of the resource materials available at Baruch, I think you have plenty of more waiting for you to master that you will with ease.

    Your presentation skills were impeccable. Confident and prepared for anything! You and your group showed exactly what it means to be ready and willing to go above and beyond. Needless to say, I am one proud mentor :,)

    As for the happy, I will impart on you the motto that I use quiet often to boost the spirits of my peers. I’ve used it often in the blogs as well so you might have read this before…

    YOU GOT THIS! Give and get happy 🙂

    Dear Ying,

    I am glad you’re willing and able to step outside of your comfort zone! Know that I am here to provide you with support at every turn.

    I am looking forward to working with you as you seek to achieve “happiness”, as you put it.
