Great article. That story struck a chord with me. Some changes to the settings. Replace an American Ivy league with an elite IIT in India. It was rare to find a first generation engineering student who came from a humble background. My peers were fairly affluent, upper-middle class or middle class at the least. Enjoyment was proportional to thickness of their wallet. They didn't do anything abnormal or flashy. But it was hard in so many ways. After all how do you justify skipping their fun events, trips and parties? I wanted to write some more. But don't feel like reliving that past. So making an abrupt end.
