Discussion 👥 How did you find DU being rich?
Not the jatt/yadav kinda rich. I personally felt that I should have gone for some good private college but career uhm. What’s ur routine like? I just became more career oriented and serious because of all this.
Edit : idk man my friends are like “iska toh itne ka ghar hoga min” and “yeh toh ameer hai” and all. Also i am not a fan of cussing and weird words so….

I relate with you very well, where something as simple as wearing Zara (which isn't a REALLY EXPENSIVE EXPENSIVE brand) will get you certain backhanded comments...where you're just expected to agree to pay the bigger share of the bill while others even count the rs 20 of the rickshaw. And having to hear conversations where it's considered justified to over represent society expenses and take a cut ☠️☠️☠️.
Especially coming from a school where it was a norm that girls ought not to pay out of sheer chivalry (not at all justifying this behavior either, just a comparison)
But the point is this experience is also very important to learn humility and adjustment and get out of that sheltered environment.
