Life as international student in united kingdom is like a rollercoaster, from university assignments to part time job to homesickness. Passing through these three year of university and social life in city like London teaches hell of a lessons. First thing i learned in england was budgeting my finances and i came to understand that no one is here to help you but yourself. This lesson has really shaped my life till now. I can literally say that what I targeted Last year, I have achieved by now except good grades at my university, because scoring good has always been my weakness. One advice I would give to my all fellow students that never think conventional, you are different in different way. You might be able to achieve things much quicker then others then why limit yourself by comparing yourself. I believe this is a biggest challenge people of 20s face. Approach things differently and never afraid to try for things you love.

At the end I would like to say, never worry since life is all about learning. You never lose but learn. Listen more since you got two ears and one mouth. Speak only when you know you certain.

Lessons learned from living in London.
