Man on the Street: Are you better off now than you were a year ago?

Man on the Street

This Week’s Question: 

Are you better off now than you were a year ago? 

Ayleen Cantu

Major: Bio-Med

“I think I am better now. It’s because of how much I feel like I’ve grown since then. I have learned from my mistakes, and learned things that I did not know before. You have to remember that no matter what, you’re not alone, and that there should always be someone to help you through anything.”

Daniel Aldiaz

Major: Electrical Engineering

“In terms of classes, I feel I’m much improved. There was help in picking a major, and all the classes make me feel welcome. You just have to not procrastinate, do your work on time and eat healthy. I only recently lived outside of my family’s house, so I feel like a big difference between me a year ago and me now is quite a bit of growing up.”

Antonio Del Bosque

Major: Music Education

“I feel like I am. I have definitely learned how to do college better, and how to solve problems with the help of others rather than trying to do everything by myself. I did so by joining a lot of organizations and discovering myself. It also helps to find time for yourself. Do not study all the time, and find some moments to breathe.”

Alona Minchin

Major: Voice Music Education

“Yes, I feel like I’m better off than I was. I have been in numerous performances and productions that I now have the privilege to be a part of.  It makes me happier than my previous self. You just have to study and put time into what you love so that you can improve.”
