Pranks, bunking classes, crushes, fresher parties and college fests, that’s exactly how one can describe the life of a college student these days, but besides having fun, students leave no stone unturned to make use of their precious college time in a way that helps them in the future.
It’s the fear of low attendance and, of course, the burden of assignments that plagues them. It is a nightmare for those who leave their comfort zones, homes, and have to brave not just the cold weather to attend the classes but also battle loneliness which makes them homesick. College-goers opt for the best options available and work hard to survive the growing competition and achieve academic excellence. That is what most youngsters feel today.
Although they chant the mantra of ‘Just Chill’ or ‘All is well’, but they are more aware and like to focus on building a career, besides hanging out with friends and enjoying their formative years. They try and balance their lives in a way that nothing hampers their ladder to success in life.
