From bothering mom 24/7 to videocalling mom and describing how my day went.
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.
From fighting with sister on small things to fighting on calls/texting.
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 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.
Now, I am living 300km away from my family.I miss them.
What’s something you did a lot as a kid that you don’t miss now that you’re an adult?

Why do atheists want to see God so badly?
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.

Note- You can skip to the main part.
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.
Which type of physical cable has fastest transmission speed?
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.
Backstory-
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.
It will be a year since I started college, so I thought I should share my experience with you.
I’ve realized the real value of money.
