How has your life changed since starting college?

made friends

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

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.

Confidence is the key.

I’ve become more responsible.

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 found amazing mentors in my professors.

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.

Let’s come to the answer.

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.

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

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.
