I can make pastas, chicken wraps and Chinese stirfrys and stuff, I just haven't mastered the art of desi cooking. I can bake quite well too :wink:
:hi: Woo! I am also going to Strathclyde this year, but for electrical and electronic engineering.

Are you looking forward to your soon to be new found independence? (If you are not living at home.)

We're from a village/town called Husslepur, which is near Lahore.
I was born in the UK in Glasgow.

I can speak a little Urdu, but normally when people speak Urdu, I reply in English. My family talks more in Punjabi.
I considered Glasgow uni, I applied and had an unconditional offer, but asking around, everyone said that strathclyde had a better reputation for engineering than Glasgow did.


Oh cool! What was the reason for choosing Mechatronics, what are your thoughts on BioMedical engineering?(i do BioMed Eng from Glasgow)

When last time you went to Pakistan?

Do you want an Independent scotland? And why?

Are you gonna marry a Pakistani guy?

Not only Mechatronics...in the end Electrical/Mechanical is quite useful if you think about Plant Design or in the Oil&Gas.

Its quite a vast subject where's there's so much opportunity and I also prefer the mechatronics in physics so yeah :smile: I dont know much about biomedical engineering.

Last time I went was in 2011.

I think im voting no, obviously because the snp have no clue what we'll do if it is a resounding yes vote.

I most likely will marry a Pakistani guy :smile:

the snp decreased the voting age to 16 so 16/17 year olds can vote too, though im pretty much sure they just did it because they think they can get more support from the Scottish youth.
