Cross border students, especially those who are coming from the third world countries, often complain that they find it difficult to keep pace with fast lifestyle of Canada. In order to get habituated with this fast pace of time, they often find themselves in a maze from where they do not know how to get out. However, social scientists are of the opinion that the discomfort faced by the overseas students in matching up with the pace of their new lifestyle is mostly psychological. It is all in their mind. A lack of confidence somehow devours them mentally and they start developing an inferior complex. Every country has its own style of living, but that should not be a source of worry to those who are coming to this country for living. Overseas education consultants always make students caution about their ill habit of thinking too much about the new country before their departure. This habit somehow creates a sense of fear about the unknown world which they are going to explore soon. They should not forget their main purpose is to study in Canada and nothing else. They should not deviate from this main aim of theirs. The following points they should keep in mind when they are going to face a new lifestyle or culture:

 · They should keep calm and stay relaxed as much as they can. They should understand that like their home country, Canada is also a part of this earth and it is not outside the universe. Even the people of that country are normal human beings like them.

International students often complain that they find it difficult to make new friend in a foreign country due to their language differences and cultural clashes. However, nowadays universities accepting overseas students are more cautious about this issue of the cross border students and they are designing inclusive learning in such a way that no student should feel alienated in the class. As a part of their inclusive learning programs, universities encourage overseas students to participate various social and cultural programs organised by the university authorities. However, the students usually show reluctance to participate in such activities as they feel it might hamper their studies. However, this is a complete misconception on the students’ part and they should engage themselves more and more in these kinds of events. Despite increasing social interaction, these events are really a chance for international students to build up friendship with other students, especially those who are coming from countries to study.

Volunteering in one such event brings Joe Samuel and Clara Black together. These two friends met in a management workshop conducted in one of the leading universities in UK. Joe who studies in UK is volunteering in this workshop as an international student studying in the said university, while Clara, who studies in Singapore, has attended this workshop under her university exchange program. Despite belonging to two different cultural backgrounds, Joe and Clara share some common interests in world cinema, music and of course wildlife photography. Since their interests collided, they found it easy to communicate with each other on numerous issues. From Clara, Joe comes to know that there are ample job opportunities available to management pass outs in Singapore as the country’s government is eager to fill up its labour shortage. Thus soon after finishing his studies, Joe headed towards Singapore and build up a promising career over there.
