Aliya Moldabekova

My name is Aliya Moldabekova. I am 19 years old and my hometown is Kazakhstan. Currently I am a sophomore at Pace University, major is accounting. I moved to New York City three years ago and transferred to the Edward R Murrow High School. After my high school graduation, I was worried about my future because my English skills were not perfect. It was hard for me to study with a completely different language and different program. Knowing only Russian language as a native it was pretty uncomfortable to study in English. But now, I can say that I am very happy that I am studying at Pace. It was my first choice from the beginning, and now I am very glad and proud of myself to be in honor society program. As I remember from my childhood till now my favorite subject was math. I feel that I can easily understand the problem and solve it quickly. I can say that I am a responsible, hard-working and friendly person. I am very positive about every aspect of life. There are many things I like to do, to see, and to experience. I like to go to the museums, different shows and concerts. In New York City every weekend I go to the different places and experience new things and lots of traditional food from all over the world. I believe that friendship is one of the most important values in human life. We exchange new ideas, find many interesting things about each other and experience new things. I appreciate friendship and people who surround me.
