Some thoughtsJust to share some thoughts about something I read. I shall not quote who said it nor where the source was from as it is rather sensitive. Basically it comments that uni is the last place where we will make friends before we step into the work society. That, I am afraid, I disagree strongly.
I felt that there's no truly genuine friends in uni anymore, at least that's how I felt for the couple of months. You are friends cause you are simply particular gd in a module and could supply your friends with the correct ans. No matter what sort of person or how cocky you may seem to be nobody cares. So long you can provide the ans at the right time. This is esp true if you have online assignments pending for marks where you can simply "copy=paste" your ans from your "best friend".
Though it may sounds crude, take a close look and observe and you will know why. Everyone is fighting for the marks. Since you are marked relatively to one another, some would probably try to console you on the outside and have an evil grin within. Trust me, I encountered them.
To the above, you could dispute everything I say. It's just my 2 cents worth of thoughts after having slogging my past one month on revision etc.
