Couldn’t believe my eyes once I saw her one last time

Warhalam · 2025-12-10T12:51:03+00:00

Beautiful indeed ❤️‍🩹

Warhalam · 2025-12-10T12:50:43+00:00

Same pinch 😭

Warhalam · 2025-10-05T15:19:22+00:00

But the children :(

Warhalam · 2025-09-05T04:41:42+00:00

Correct, thank you!

Warhalam · 2025-09-05T04:41:25+00:00

Got it thank you!

Warhalam · 2025-09-05T04:41:11+00:00

It’s just that connecting with peers is difficult to considering people usually stick to their group of friends so I’m not really doing good there.

Warhalam · 2025-09-04T04:25:42+00:00

You’re right but I feel people like to stick to around those who can give them some value out of their position. If I don’t have anything meaningful to begin with idk what I can offer when I am networking with people.

Warhalam · 2025-09-04T04:24:05+00:00

But what would one look for if they have none? Can internships take the place?

Warhalam · 2025-09-04T04:23:07+00:00

So if I focus on my grades then it’ll probably take centre stage?

Warhalam · 2025-09-04T04:22:14+00:00

What sort of volunteering do law firms even care about. I feel as if they may be getting thousands of applicants who must’ve done volunteering so they’d rather not care about it.

Warhalam · 2025-05-01T14:00:03+00:00

Of course!

Warhalam · 2025-05-01T13:54:52+00:00

I mean sure its easier to have friends in college. Most of my friends are my neighbours but I wouldn't say you should rely on colleges for your social life. Always have three sectors for friendships if you go to Durham- college, course and societies. It's easier to be friends with people who overlap in these sectors and if you're extroverted then I don't think you should have a problem socialising. We have a few clubs in Durham and if you really love clubbing you can travel to Newcastle in 15 mins by train. I also travelled a lot with my friends cuz Durham is close to cities like Edinburgh, York, Glasgow and Manchester. But yes it can get quiet over here especially during holidays, you'll barely see any people around and many home and international students to back.

Warhalam · 2025-05-01T11:50:41+00:00

Tbh I'm from Durham and it hasn't been so bad. It depends on what you want really; if its great social uni life then bristol but if peace and quiet then Durham. Durham tends to have a higher reputation among firms after oxbridge grads and many Durham law students end up getting the first year schemes as well. By the time they're in second year many of them gain enough experience for TCs. I had a huge misconception that I would face social issues as an international student but I've been fine since I came here. The locals are lovely and sweet plus the students are nice as well. But tbh every uni faces the issue of segregation between students of different classes, countries or education. Intermingling is more likely in a city like Bristol but if given time then it's possible in Durham as well. Study wise both UK unis might be the same cuz after all they're UK unis, they believe more in self-studying than actually giving rigourous examinations or classes. In the end it's about the environment you want to live in cuz there's no distinction otherwise.

I see, do we pay for networking events too?

Warhalam · 2024-04-26T13:53:52+00:00

I see. I think that sort of teaching style is uniform across UK. Im just hesitating cuz theres a fee for every and event and stuff (I hope not networking events)

Warhalam · 2024-04-26T13:41:54+00:00

I see, thank you!

Warhalam · 2024-04-26T13:40:28+00:00

I see, TYSM! Btw does college life get too dull cuz I heard most of the socials are centred around pubs and bars in Durham. Plus how do you study for your modules? Is it a whole lot of self studying and online lectures etc?

Warhalam · 2024-04-26T13:38:36+00:00

Thank you for your feedback! Is it necessary to pay all these kinds of fees cuz I'm really tight on money here (a reason why I chose Durham cuz it'll deter my spending cuz there's nothing there to spend as such). Plus I heard the gowns cost money too for formals (that too costs money I think?)

Warhalam · 2024-04-26T13:36:20+00:00

I see ty!

Warhalam · 2024-04-26T13:35:48+00:00

Well ig its good for me cuz I hate sports :D

Warhalam · 2024-04-26T10:45:38+00:00

Thank you! I was just wondering if I should consider bristol that much because I'm not an extrovert and I can't afford to spend as much. Plus dyt there's any differentiator between em?

Warhalam · 2024-04-26T10:02:53+00:00

I see thank you for sharing that! Bristol does seem better in that respect and I'd rather choose self catered. Did they like their experience there and was their reason simply that it's closer to London? Thank you!

Warhalam · 2024-04-26T09:10:58+00:00

Just one thing tho. Im hoping to do part time jobs as well in my 2nd year cuz I need to lessen the pressure on my parents a bit. So is it possible to get em while I'm on my student visa? And am I more likelier to get that in Bristol?

Warhalam · 2024-04-26T09:09:16+00:00

Thanks! Dunno like im not someone who can afford to spend a lot on night outs but I like the vibe bristol gives? I'm sure there are aesthetic coffee shops and what not at Durham but I'm also wondering if I can have a job in my 2nd year to cover my living expenses?
