19 Things That Happen To You In The Last Year Of College

College – time to make mistakes, to experiment, to explore…to live. College has given us a lot besides just education. It has given us lessons, a sense of direction, a sense of self, and some really wonderful friends that we might go on with forever.

College is always fun, but when it’s time to leave, you tend to ruminate the memories & the time well spent.

Here are the most unforgettable moments of our last year in college.

1. You make and implement the list of things you have to do in the city before you leave

Trips and night outs with your friends become more frequent.

 

2. You realise that there is no one older than you, and you’re the ultimate senior batch

So, you start becoming warmer towards your juniors, giving them all sorts of survival tips for college.

 

3. You start counting all the ‘last’ moments of the year- the last class, the last lunch, the last exam, the last assignment…everything

“The last word of the last assignment of college life. Done.”

And start preparing yourself for several interviews and the likes.

And spend as much time as you can. You hate going back to your room.

Of the library, of the canteen, of your mess food, of your friends…all of it.
