You have Struggles ?

-
We have all had instances in our life where we feel like we face a lot of challenges, where we are struggling to move forward in a certain field and time of our life.

I don't know where to begin, This is a first for me.. Hey everyone I'm Avanish, a fresher in Amrita University , Kerala , CSE Branch . I did my schooling in Chennai,Tamil Nadu from SBOA School and Junior College.  Why Amrita? To be honest, I don't know..My dad studied in Amrita as well, so I guess its fate?I always had a liking towards amrita, didn't even attempt JEE (Not that I would get it anyways XD) My parents were understanding enough to let me do this as well. So here I am :) How is life? Quite nice. Despite several warnings of the hostel life being tough I've found it to be a nice change of pace. College is good, made lots of new friends. In the middle of exams right now.. There's a Club here called Foss that I really want to join. They conducted some really good workshops so If any of you are planning to join Amrita, keep note. Why are you here? I know this is a question you are asking yourself right now. I plan to publish weekly
