COLLEGE LIFE

My college life was normal period of my life without any financial difficulties.

BEST OF COLLEGE LIFE

The best of my college life is the bond created between friends and teachers, as well as the discipline and dedication towards work.

LASTING MEMORIES

During the time of 1989/90 of Nepal’s democratic movement, I too participated in rallies and speeches that were held in our college by student leaders. I will never forget those days when I was chased by police and they even visited my room to search for me. To get away from them, I used to ask my house owner to lock the door of my room after I entered the room.

LESSON LEARNT

Teachers are only the guides to show us our way and build our ability to tackle with problems. It all depends upon us and our self-study for us to become a person with high self-esteem.

WORDS TO HEED

Be regular in college and develop self-discipline. Take care of your health and manage you time to study and play. Study not only to pass exams but also to build confidence in life. Do not involve in activities that will decrease the reputation of your college or university. Remember that your college’s reputation is also your reputation.

HOW TO ACE IN COLLEGE

You should consult many books and make notes that you can understand easily. Meet friends and seniors. Have interaction and discussion with them to know your weakness and strength. Study in groups as it will help you to learn quickly.
