How has your life changed since starting college?

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.

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.

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

How do I identify fake friends in life?

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.

Confidence is the key.
