It might be a dream come true for a boy to always be around a huge crowd of Double X chromosomes. But when you’re a girl, the nightmares come true with the dreams as well. Although every girls’ college is different from the other, here is a list of things that you would understand only if you have studied in or are studying in a girls’ college.
1. You are surrounded by women ON ALL SIDES.
2. You develop a crush on the best male teacher out of the lot, even if he looks like Vennu Mallesh.

15. The first time you meet guys post admission is the most awkward thing ever.
16. We go to Sarojini Nagar almost every month while Zara and Mango shopping binges happen only during seasonal sales.
17. The non-smokers look down upon the girls who smoke and channelize this hatred in situations where you least expect it, like group projects.
18. You realise that dieting is a myth when you see that the canteens are always jam-packed.
19. Good looks don’t get you anywhere. Since every male professor teaches around 32789 girls, you actually have to study hard and score well. Jugaad doesn’t work.
