How has your life changed since starting college?

I’ve realized the real value of money.

From eating freshly cooked, hot and healthy food prepared by mom with love and care to eating pg’s carelessly made tasteless food.

There are many students who can’t go home frequently because of issues like long distance, travelling issues etc..I can feel their pain.
