How To Bake A Cake In College!


While waiting for your in-campus shuttle bus, or while waiting in a long hectic line to get to the cashier at a restaurant for lunch, that is when you have the opportunity to have the best random, spontaneous, genuine conversations with others, and that is when you know you are about to bake
and celebrate a great life in college!

You are probably missing out on a lot of fun and action if you are not living a vivid social life during your college years. A good college life mainly includes participating in and attending events that are organized by fellow students. A good college life is about the awkward moments in class when you shout a wrong answer out loud. A good college life includes having cool and deep conversations with strangers; conversations that last for about two hours before saying goodbye. If you are struggling with your life at college, below are a few tips on how to get your recipe started:
  • Talk, talk and talk! What is the point of going to college everyday if you are not willing to invest some energy in socializing with friends, with people, with strangers?
  • Check up on other students! College life is not easy, and if you really do want to improve your own life, as well as other student's life, do not be afraid of initiating a close bonding with them. Ask how they are doing, how they are getting on with assignments, or even what they have had for lunch. Those kinds of intimately driven questions are a key to forming genuine bonds with others.
  • Actually attend classes! I have seen people, including my very own brother for example, who do not even bother going to classes and would rather study the lectures online. I believe this is an extremely unhealthy college lifestyle as it is crucially significant to be physically present in the lecture to not miss out on the discussions, the group tasks, the fun.
  • Do not hesitate to meet up with your lecturers, ask them, text them! You have probably been told by other students that it is not preferable to approach your lecturers often because "they are not your friends. They do not like it." But that is not true! You have every right to seek help, ask a lot, and trust me, you will find that most lecturers are very welcoming and caring and cool.
Once you practice socializing with people in college, the energy will live on. You will notice that you are aware of more social events, more people to hang out with, more places to hang out at, your cake just gets tastier and tastier once you master the right ingredients.

The next time you are at a bus stop, or standing in a long line, turn to the person behind you and heartily start conversing, you will realize that there are many entertaining people who are capable of conversing very well and interestingly too, only when they get the chance.
