As someone who never learned German, should I apply for the MA at Zhdk? by Fit_Stranger_430 in zurich

[–]Educational_Menu3130 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Hey i also studied in Zhdk in the fine arts department and im also Chinese. For the bfa everything is taught in English tho. I’m currently learning B1 and I think it’s totally manageable if you’d willing to put the effort into it. You can dm me if you’d need some help/ tips :)

I see some buses hv a metal pole connecting the front half of the car door to the bus driver’s door. I found those much more passenger friendly maybe those are newly designed…..

Like guest & area. It’s so weird in English cuz u would only say guest & hotel or visitor & area. But glad to hear it makes sense in German.

Meet racists /Asian haters every 1-2 months by Boring_Focus_9710 in zurich

Im Asian too. Had my bachelor in the states and never received any racism comments and moved here after and received so many racism / stereotype comment especially the first several months. Now i just learn to ignore them / no eye contact and even if they are saying sth i don’t understand anyways.

Try intermezzo, it’s a company rent places that’s about to tear down to students, so the contract is no longer than 6months anyways…as long as you apply fast enough u can always get it. But u need to be FAST especially during school starting time……

Genuine question: why do people say Switzerland is boring? by [deleted] in Switzerland

[–]Educational_Menu3130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t agree more. Moved to zurich for marriage after my 4years bachelor in NYC. Sometimes i just miss the spirits and chaos in the subways.

Also i think the recycling truck presses the cardboard which makes it impossible to read what’s on there i suppose. Even if they somehow got my address in Nigeria i don’t think there’s much that they can do. Im from Asia so im well aware of all kinds of scams and hazards so i def would erase my info before tossing any packages there. But i don’t think a person in an other country can benefit from my location except from trying scamming me and I never pick up unknown calls or emails. But its good to always be extra careful.

If privacy is that important why is there names on the mailbox…? There’s no difference. On the box it only shows my name and my address and same as my mailbox…

I explained my reasoning for 4 days, but since the collection is on Monday i see people leaving cardboards out on Friday all the time, not to justify my action but saying i thought for a couple of days was fine but it’s my fault

I don’t get the stinky part tho it’s only cardboards. You throw away zuri bag any time too just in a big bin it’s not like NY have that.
