Past, present and future

Hello everyone, my name is YuQing but everyone call me Tiffany. Speak of my name, I would like to explain the meaning behind the name YuQing. The word Yu defines as rain in Chinese and Qing stands for Sunny or clear sky. When you put it together it means “the sky clears up after the rain” or “new hopes after a disastrous period.” My parent gave me the name for me to shine bright even if life is giving me a hard time and for me to believe that everything will be fine after all the hardships. This name help developed a unique personality for me. I will say that my personality is pretty bright and cheerful. Even though at times there are “rainy” days in my life, I always find some way to lighten myself up. I took this picture last year and I realized it represents my name in some sort of way.

I have passion in many things; photography, fashion and latte arts. I bought my very first camera, Cannon T5i, two years ago. I think the pictures we captured can tell lots of stories depending on the person’s point of view. I am surrounded by many friends that are into photography which motivates me to experiences it by going on adventures with them and my camera. A single picture can leave memories and express the author’s mood and idea just like fashion. My passion for fashion developed when I was young. The thoughts of becoming a fashion designer was growing day by day, however I turn it down because of some personal reasons. Although I wasn’t able to achieve my goal, my passion for fashion is still continuing, it’s the main reason why I choose to major in fashion marketing. If I can’t become a fashion designer, I still want to be enrolled in the fashion industry. Fashion is a really broad art form. Fashion does not only include clothing but also includes art in everyday life, for example, latte art. I started to work in a coffee shop around March and began to learn latte art. It amazes me that such a simple design can be so fashionable which lead many fashion blogger to post images of it with their outfit, showing the aesthetic sides of both subjects. I see myself working in a fashion company and open my own cafe further on in my life.

My profile represent me and my name a lot. New York City is a city that never sleeps. The buildings’ shining bright light lit up the darkness that everyone hates. NYC is a very busy and loud city which perfectly reflects me. I get loud whenever I am with my friends. Other people won’t like it but I know my friend enjoys my appearances because I bring smiles to their faces. I would like to act as the light in other people’s life because I am a cheerful person. I can be like the moon hanging on the sky leading people to their path or the driver in the car driving you to your destination.

Going back to the meaning of my name, I am the one who is never phased by the “rainy” days and the darkness. I always try to create happiness in a bad moment. I felt like I played the role of a therapist whenever my friend need me. When she’s down, I brought her out to places where people can enjoy themselves and be themselves. That place of one was the bridge between two cities. It helped her relieve all her stress and it gave her the motivation to move on and it gave me confidence to be who I am today. I believe that life is not always sunshines and rainbows, there are always bad days ahead of you. Although you cannot stop these moments from happening, you can always change your point of view and approach your problems differently.

Overall, I have a positive personality once you get to know me or talk to me. It matters to me that you get to know my true side because to some people I am a introvert however, I am the complete opposite once you enter my world. I hope after my introduction, some of you can approach me in class. We can help each other for the semester or throughout the year. Since everyone is a freshman and we barely know anyone in college, we can come together and make our very first friends. As I go through my years in city tech, I hope to give a hand for those students who needs it. I wish to be more social not only in college but also for my life and my career in the future.

    Hi my name is Herson Mark Garcia and i’m currently a freshman at new york city college of technology. I graduated from flushing high school i wasn’t really the best student in high school i didn’t take school seriously i thought it was all a complete waste of time they weren’t teaching us things that would benefit us or we would need later on in life and they kept us there for an unnecessary amount of hours. I used to play football during my sophomore year and my freshman year i loved playing football but my injuries kept me off the field and after my sophomore year i decided to walk away which is something i still regret till this day. I am a very creative,imaginative person and i happen to space out a lot and get stuck in my own world i’m super friendly often told i’m charming i never take things seriously i believe that life too short to be taken seriously so enjoy every second and live to the fullest and make every situation a fun one even the bad ones and make as many laughable moments.

    I love traveling with my friends going on adventures and taking pictures and watching sunsets and always being outside and i love superheros my favorite superhero is spider-man I love that guy and all of the movies i’m kinda a nerd when it comes to comics and superheros .When i was accepted by city tech i was shocked surprised i got in cause a kid with my grades yeahh……. But i was grateful to get accepted and i decided city tech is where i wanted to attend. And i made a promise to myself that college i would try my fullest and my hardest which is something i kept so far. Originally i wasn’t suppose to attend college i was gonna enlist in the navy with my uncle who is currently in the navy my mind was set on that for nearly a year until i realized i don’t wanna have a job where everyday my loved ones and my family and myself if imma be alive the next day or if it’s my last so i changed my mind and applied for colleges.

    My goals for college is to get my associates degree in hospitality management and then switching to the institution of culinary education and getting a degree in culinary arts. I also plan staying on track on with all my hw classwork project and scoring high grades on my exams and finals and getting Bs and As as my final grade and managing to keep my job and stay in school.
    I found my interest in culinary my junior year i kept watching these cooking videos and i would try to recreate these dishes but adding a little bit of my own touch i also start creating and mixing drinks that i think would match up and go good together one drink i made once was strawberry syrup with red bull and ginger ale that drink was awesome i also love meeting people and talking and making new friends i plan on moving to hawaii once again once i finish with all my college work.

    I chose this picture as my avatar picture because it’s one of the only pictures which u will see my face clearly and you can see my hair because i’m usually am wearing a hat in my picture or my face isn’t clearly visible or noticeable or im facing away from the camera or i’m just staring into space or staring into the background. The current hair color i have isn’t my hair color by the way. I can say my profile picture represents me as a guy who loves wearing hats and i’m a serious guy which i’m not and i’m a self conceited guy cause i’m trying to show off my jawline which i sorta am.

    My profile doesn’t say much about me only a few details and what i’m majoring in and what i want to achieve in college but then again i don’t expect my profile to have every detail and information about me.
