Oh okay, yeah it does sound quite a specialised course! Are many of your friends also studying in the UK or are the majority remaining at Indian Universities? Do you have family/friends here already that you know? Aww okay :smile: Can you recommend me some Bollywood music to listen to? :P

It isn't but India doesn't even bother offering many courses outside the whole engineering and medicine bandwagon. So yeah the rest of us are left with limited choices :frown:
4 of my really close friends are going to be at universities that are quite close to me but a majority of them are staying back of going to the US.
My brother is currently studying in Edinburgh so i don't have much to worry about :biggrin:
Well what do you want to listen to, like slow romantic songs, punjabi rap or upbeat item songs? :P

Aww that's so sweet :biggrin: But not all of us are haha :P
But I guess our education system and our families get us accustomed to rigorous studying and working procedures. So when you see us in Universities we're already used to putting in insane amounts of hardwork for everything and it pays of well there.
As far as talents are concerned, I guess we just have a knack for picking up things easily. In Indian families we learn a lot without being taught about it formally. I guess we learn by observation or something :P


One of my cousin was very bad at studying and she moved to india and studied there and i dont know how but she is so talented now and she is a nurse atm :biggrin: she told me that the education in india is very strong and strict !

Hahaha I guess its just the Indian aura :P
But yes, Indian education system is pretty difficult. For the most part there is a lot of mugging up but the basics of science is of superior grade. Like 7th grade kids are taught some crazy chemistry and physics. So I guess that's how :P

Really? So it's quite common for people who want to study arts and humanities to go abroad? Oh okay, that makes things easier :smile: I'm one of those annoying people who have completely eclectic tastes, so tell me you like to listen to? :P

Yeah kind of. But mostly only the kids from elite schools and families have the means and confidence to take that step. The rest just adjust and study some generic degree and decide to specialize in the Masters programme.
Hahaha okay no problem. Just go to youtube and type 'Arijit Singh songs jukebox' and there will be like a video with all his hit songs back to back.
Aaaand the a majority of Indians hate this artist but I love his music. His name is Yo Yo Honey Singh. He has this really coarse voice that i love but his lyrics are a lit sleazy and controversial. However, his music pumps you up so give it a try :P
Are you planning on doing a masters with your degree when you've finished or going to straight into work? Okay thanks, found it :smile: I like his voice too, it's got depth and personality to it.

Hahaha he's the besttt <3 He's also the most misunderstood artist i know.
Haha I agree. I don't even like dancing but he makes me want to. :P
I mean to ask, are you a British Indian? Do you understand hindi or any other Indian language? :P
What's his best song? :smile: No, I'm just British. I speak a little Hindi because I have a friend who speaks Hindi as well as Punjabi and I'm a language geek :wink:

Really difficult to choose but I think I'll go with Brown Rang and Blue Eyes :biggrin:
Woah that's interesting. I'd love to hear you speak. A British guy speaking in hindi sounds fascinating :P That's nice :smile:

In a lot of restaurant menus, they have numbers as well as names. So she is making a joke out of you being indian.
