DU is basically paying fees just to survive academically, emotionally, and socially at the same time

Every semester starts with “this time I’ll stay consistent” and ends with all-nighters, panic, low attendance calculations, and wondering how the syllabus finished before your motivation even started. Add society pressure, internship FOMO, LinkedIn people announcing achievements every 2 hours, and relatives asking “beta future ka kya plan hai?” and the experience becomes something else entirely.

The funniest part is how normal all of this has become in DU. One person is breaking down over CGPA, another is travelling 2 hours daily just to attend one class, someone else is pretending they’re okay after bombing an intern interview, and somehow everyone still shows up the next morning acting chill.

College life is definitely memorable, but not always in the way school seniors described it.
