A crayon scratched down to stubs. Endless designs fill the notebooks, fueled by an energy only a child could possess. Since boyhood, it has been my dream to become an inventor. I chose Mechanical Engineering at City Tech as a step toward that goal – to breathe life into those scribbles. However, now that I’m here, the change has been daunting, a new place to be, and even more people to meet. In my first semester, I hope to quell my anxieties and become more familiar with all that City Tech has to offer. This is me giving my all, so let’s start off on the right foot together.
I am a goofy caring person who loves to see the joy in things, you’ll probably see me around with my drumsticks and drum pad in the halls while waiting for my class. I have been in a drumline for about a year now and have played a key role in my life. One of my goals is to provide for my future family, I have always dreamed about having kids and I want to be there to support them through the ups and downs. A reason why I chose City Tech is because it had the major that I wanted to pursue. One thing I want to learn in this semester is how to time mange with my classes and my outside responsibility.
It sounds like the drumline has been a significant part of your life so, it’s great to hear about your enthusiasm and passion for it! Balancing your classes with your outside responsibilities can definitely be challenging, but it sounds like you’re prepared to tackle it.
