Hello everyone my name is Anjel Suero I am 21 years old. this my 2nd semester here in bmcc. My major is economics. what i like to do in my free time is go to the gym, play basketball and video games.

Hi!! My name is Sabrina Rodriguez Andrews. I am 18 years old, and I am a freshman at BMCC and this is my second semester here. I’m from east New York Brooklyn and I’m mixed with Dominican and African American. My major is business management and I hope to be able to complete my 2 years at BMCC, earn my associates in this degree and establish my now small business into a bigger wider known brand in the fashion/art industry. I’ve always liked English literature classes because the stories and articles we read for the classes are usually interesting and entertaining, and I also like the fact that I get to add my own input on the story when completing an essay or answering questions. I hope that this class can help me understand articles better and write in a more professional understanding way because I will surely need this later on in my career.  

Hello, my name is Britney Barzola. My college journey has been very off and on, since I started when the pandemic basically hit I have yet to go to BMCC in person, I’ve been educating myself remotely since. I’ve also been taking breaks in between semesters so my journey is pretty lengthy. I am majoring in psychology because I am very interested in learning about how our brains work, although I still question if thats really what I want to major in going forward but it is my number one pick at the moment. I would enjoy learning about child psychology hence I have a lot of history working with kids I wouldn’t mind involving them in my career. The only thing that clashes with that is the fact that I also want to pursue some sort of creative career within the arts and media, I hope to find my true passion as I go.

Hello everyone! My name is Fils. Fils is my middle name, that is the name I like going by. I am 19 years old and I am originally from Haïti, a little island in the Caribbean. This semester I decided that I’d change my major from psychology to LPN (licensed practicing nurse). The reason for the change, I don’t know. I guess I still am trying to figure out a career path for myself. Some fun little facts about: I love cats, I am a cat person. I want to have a cat pet one day. Some of my favorite animals are cats of course, wildcats, wolves, and owls. I wanna say I think my liking for owls started when I saw The Guardians of Ga’hoole movie, I thought the owls looked really cool in that movie. Also another fun fact: I don’t like eggs. I like working with people, and I like helping any way I can so I think I could bring in those traits to our course. Since we’ll be reading and analyzing texts throughout the whole semester I think we’ll definitely need each other’s help. I look forward to getting to know everyone. And a quick note I’m an introvert. I don’t partake in a lot of social activities but I do want to be more extroverted.

Hi, I’m a psychology major and I am currently in my freshman year second semester. Whenever I have time I like to read books (working on finishing them), rewatch old movies, or discover new ones, listen to music (I would like to say I have a decent music taste). After BMCC I do plan on transferring to a 4 year college and even in the future getting my masters. One skill that would contribute to this class is being curious. I feel like depending on the topic I can ask good questions to get more detail or get a different perspective and connecting it to another idea.

Hello my name is Peter Pizarro This is my second semester at BMCC, my major is computer information systems.  What I can offer to this class is a different perspective on certain topics. I’ve always been told that I am a very analytical person so maybe I am able to grasp some of the concepts. To be honest writing isn’t my forte but that doesn’t mean I wont give it my all. I’m looking forward to getting to know all of you. I hope we can have a wonderful semester together. Thank you and lets all pass this class together.

Hello everyone! My name is Jonathan Alonzo I am from the Bronx and both of my parents are from Ecuador. I graduated high school in 2020 and I got into Manhattan College by Riverdale right after, now the problem was that it was during covid so there were a ton of restrictions to do anything at the time. What made it worse was that all my classes were online and I could not focus at all and it felt like I was wasting my time so I dropped out and started working. I ended up working at a property management company for 2 yrs and a bank for 1 and now I am 22 and I decided that it was time to come back to college and finish my education.

Hi there, I’m Falaq Amjad. I’m a second semester student at BMCC. Right now, I’m working on my nursing prerequisites. Regarding my writing, I think it’s my strongest subject because I enjoy it so much and I can relate to whatever topic I have to write about. I think writing is a skill that anyone can truly grasp, it’s a way to communicate emotions of all kinds. In my spare time, I also enjoy crocheting because it’s calming and enjoyable. In general, I’m excited to meet you all and wish you all the best of luck this semester. Additionally, give everyone encouraging feedback.

Ever since I was little, I have loved writing. I feel passionate every time I have a paper and pen or a blank document and a keyboard in front of me. I enjoy writing about current events, past events, or even about my own day. Not only do I love writing, but I love to read others writing. I have a long list of books I want to read. I believe that not only can I bring an positive attitude and energy to class everyday, but I am very excited to share my own thoughts on literature and hear others opinions. I am also very excited to be able to give feedback on others and Receive feedback on my writing.

I’m looking forward to meeting you all this semester and make this learning process a productive one to remember!

Hello! I’m Madelyn — it’ll be nice to meet you all next week, when we actually have meetings, but this can suffice for now. To get the usual icebreaker traits out of the way, I’m a sophomore here at [edit:BMCC ! the name of the college, what I meant to type], pursuing an associate degree in Financial Management. If all goes as planned, this should be my second-to-last semester, and I’m excited to transfer to CCNY for my Economics BA! It’s true what they say about the grind never stopping, isn’t it? I’d call said grind one of my main interests! As for what I feel that I can contribute to this course, I’ll freely confess that I’ve taken Introduction to Literature more than once, so I may be familiar with some of the material. Besides that, my older brother is a CUNY alumnus and bought a textbook for this course when he took it — I’ve found that said book has much of the texts used in some of ENG201’s curricula, and if that proves to be true this time too, I can provide the name of it (if you’d like to seek it out as a supplementary resource) on request! I hope we’ll all have a productive semester together!
