Basit (Second floor)
“Hey! Welcome to Selkirk. My name is Basit and I’m currently studying Mechanical Engineering. I hope you thoroughly enjoy your time here at Southside, at Imperial and in London at large if you’re new here. There’s lots of fun to be had, great memories to be made and work to be done. The transition to university, living on your own or moving to a big city can be somewhat daunting and takes some getting used to; fear not however, as time passes you will figure it all out! If you ever need any advice from study tips to making deals with Satan, please do not hesitate to speak to me: I am always up for a chit-chat especially if it involves bestowing my infinite wisdom upon others. I’m an avid theatre goer and performer being an active member of DramSoc and President of Poetry Society. I enjoy exploring different genres of music and hiking. I have a wide range of interests and like reading about everything from literature to philosophy, psychology, and health among other pursuits. If you ever need someone to hang with, need some advice or just want to talk, feel free to drop by my room or send me a message.”
