How has your life changed since starting college?

It will be a year since I started college, so I thought I should share my experience with you.

There are many students who can’t go home frequently because of issues like long distance, travelling issues etc..I can feel their pain.

From being at home 24*7 to going home for a few days in 2–3 months.

Why can't my adopted sister accept she is not part of my family because she isn't related? Why can't she stop calling my parents mum and dad?

All I meant to say is that if you are fully skilled, know everything, and still have no confidence, You will be considered nothing, but if you have confidence, people will see it as a plus, and this will provide a better opportunity for the future.

Confidence is the key.

As a woman, what would be you response to a male friend’s offer of a full body massage?

I met a lot of fake people and learned how to deal with them.

In 12th, I struggled to focus on my studies.I didn’t want to take the science stream but had to and wasn’t doing well. As if it wasn’t enough my father transferred to some other city and I was not happy with it.

I’ve realized the real value of money.

Why is the left keep misrepresenting what Trump said about his daughter? When asked if he would date her if he weren’t her father, it simply reflected pride in raising a smart, respectful, and loving daughter with good morals all men want that no?

In PG, I met 5 other girls from my classroom, and from the start, I kept my expectations low and was sure that I did not fit in with them, so I kept my distance, and my only connection in college was my roommate at that time.She advised me multiple times to hang out with that group. I made it clear to her that it was not right for my well-being to spend time with people with whom I feel uncomfortable.

From eating freshly cooked, hot and healthy food prepared by mom with love and care to eating pg’s carelessly made tasteless food.

In college, I met many people who were faking behaviors in order to look cool, and they still do. This 'pick me' behavior irritates me the most.

Many people used to believe that I would not be able to do so, but I did.

Now, I am living 300km away from my family.I miss them.

For example, many of my collegemates didn’t know what UGC was. The girl who was my senior and was sitting beside me didn’t know that Guide is written by R.K. Narayan. She was going to tick Chetan Bhagat as the answer before I stopped her.

My roommate soon understood this and stopped hanging out with them before it was too late.Now I have a trio: myself, my roommate, and one of the five girls-who faced the same situation as us.Our vibes matched.

I witnessed people with no understanding becoming successful simply because they were confident enough to stand on stage and perform.They arrived, performed, and it was finished. Their performance was not that good; it could have been better, yet people applauded as if it were the best.

I am happy I found them, but the scared half of me always reminds me to be ready for heartbreaks, and I don't expect much.

From fighting with sister on small things to fighting on calls/texting.

Why do some people feel down in summer, specifically in July and August? What could be the reasons behind this feeling of sadness during those months only?

I lacked friends in 12th class,I didn’t understand a single thing those teachers were teaching and used youtube and educational subscriptions for learning.
