Networking

Since I've got my results, I've been trying hard to get to know as much as possible about my future university. And I had to look for people who are already there, and people who are in the same boat as me (as in about to step into uni life for the first time.)

It started with a newspaper ad by a certain college. Same course, same university but I didn't know any of them. But I had a couple of friends there. Contacted them, got their mailing ads.
Now, I'm networking with future classmates and seniors, as (sad to say) , none of my classmates are going to be there with me at my future university ( which I hope I get into(God willing) as I haven't gotten the confirmed offer yet ) .

Blame the college for not allowing my classmates to change their choice of subjects.

But hey, since they are not there, I have to do this as I have no one to bank on until I get to LSE.
It's a challenge I say. To do it right.

It will work alright, as long as I network and meet the people who I can help and get returns from them.. returns as in scratching each others back and supporting each other in this harsh world..

Ok, I might be getting to emo about this whole thing but the point is networking is not just a way of life.

It is LIFE!
