When you come to the country's most prestigious university and best university for many courses well you have your own perks. There is a downside to this road too. You are always surrounded by people who are always pushing you forward, peer pressure tends to get so high that the students start to collapse. It is completely normal, as the city has to offer a lot and it takes a time to adopt changes and move ahead with life.
The best part of this situation and lonesome fear is that you are not alone. Many more students are feeling the same thing in one way or the another. So you do not need to feel bad, what you need to do is to get the feel away and move forward in the college life, as the college is only for three years. And when will this time pass by, it would be very hard to stop.
Here is the list of few kinds of stuff that you can do that would not only put away the lonesome fear but will also help you develop on the personal level.
1. Hangout with your classmates: Your classmates are the only one who would be there with you. You can befriend seniors or juniors or from other departments, but you might feel the same when they would not be around. Most of the time you spend in the college is in the classroom. Make sure that you have a couple of friends in your class. If not friends, do hangout with them, it is not important to have a bro relationship with everyone. Sometimes all you need to make sure is you have acquaintances so that whenever you need help in future, they would.
2. Join a Society: This is the first and foremost thing you should do when you join a college. Joining a society will not only help you in keeping you engaged in the college, you will make some good contacts and you will be able to learn a lot too. There is a lot of learning available in the college and college societies can give you the platform to express yourselves and live your interests. Also, you can be a part of a cool college fests and events organised by the societies.
3. Associate activities outside College: When you come to DU, you realise that the pressure of college is not so much and most part of your day, you are free. What you can do is join the dance class you always wanted to join or the guitar academy you always have been looking for. This kind of activities can also help you in developing a group outside the college and you might also add up to your skillsets. You can also look to join some campus ambassador programs or internships.
