How has your life changed since starting college?

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 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.

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

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.
