How has your life changed since starting college?

From bothering mom 24/7 to videocalling mom and describing how my day went.

I’ve realized the real value of money.

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

What were the first few days, weeks, months and then years like after finding out about your spouses infidelity? How did your feelings, and yours & their approach to the situation change in the immediate aftermath compared to later down the line?

Confidence is the key.

I have huge respect for their knowledge and dedication to teaching.I consider myself lucky to be able to learn from such experts in their respective fields.

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

What's the most valuable lesson you've learned in life, and how has it impacted your journey so far?

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.

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.

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.

Can you explain the difference between being a conservative Republican and a liberal Democrat? Can you provide some examples of their ideologies?

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.

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.

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.

If English makes 3 additional gender terms to accommodate for XXX, XXY, and XYY people, what would be the most realistic terms for those genders?

What are some cute picnic ideas for a romantic date?

From watching news at breakfast- to sharing news on calls

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

What is it like to have an insanely beautiful girlfriend?

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

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.

The fact that groups break up after the first year is correct.

Can you recommend a simple song with an awesome solo? What makes the solo stand out?

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

I’ve become more responsible.

From my daily arguments with dad to missing him.

Why do British people always write "xxx" after their names?

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

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.

Backstory-

Why cant I feel anything in my sleep? I cannot even feel myself moving, breathing, and swallowing saliva! I cannot even hear anything, not even my alarm! Some people that I've been with says that I'm moving a lot in my sleep, how can I stop it?

-Hitesha.

I felt frustrated, occasionally venting at my family and used to have panic attacks.

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.

Have your parents ever walked in on you?

I found amazing mentors in my professors.

Thanks for reading my answer.

I still have doubts about myself, have a lot to work on my personality and need to work hard. I will keep trying to see positivity around me and I wish you would do the same.

Why is going on a date today so much different than it was when I was young?

Let’s come to the answer.

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

I have never stayed away from home before this but now I live in a pg with the worst management, manage my own chores, and travel alone.

Going away from that place was my only wish at that time.I had no exposure to the outside world and I knew if I continued my further studies there, I would gain nothing.

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