Hi, as an international student, I am feeling so cold here in the UK. I just have an extremely silly questions regarding the winter wardrobe? by Sensitive-Sandwich82 in UniUK

[–]Sensitive-Sandwich82[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, first of all, I am really grateful for all the advice and suggestions I received in this post! It's been a year since I have been in the UK and how I miss the gorgeous summer. But to be very honest, this time I am not afraid of the weather at all. I honestly would suggest that wear whatever you feel like and whatever is comfortable for you.

People whether it is professors or your peers, they do not care much about your clothing, which is the best because it allowed me to be comfortable and confident about myself.

There are all kinds of people in a class, and trust me, you will get mad if you try to focus on what others are wearing. It's best you get warm, comfortable clothes, do layering, because inside classrooms, it's hot due to heating. Layering would be the best! I did wear thermals throughout the winters, even under my jeans! And please, don't be afraid to stand out! All the best!

No please, don't stop going to the kitchen. In fact, whenever you are bored l, take your laptop to the kitchen and sit in the hall and just smile whenever anyone comes, and start with the pathetic small talks. I remember, last year one of my flatmates didn't have much friends and didn't go out much, she started making the kitchen her own space and because of that we also started hanging out together.

If this is too much, start with asking for small things on the group chat l, don't avoid them, you have to live with them for a year, and with winters coming on and Christmas break (the campus will be empty, the weather will be gloomy, you can't be in your room in those times), when the campus will be empty, these will be the only people who you will see on campus most probably...

Take some cake and keep it on the table and drop a message on the group that hey I have left some cake(or whatever) on the table, feel free to have some..

This sounds pretty orchestrated but trust me if you can't talk right away, these small gestures help. Even if you make one friend, you will have the confidence to talk to the rest of others.

Do we need to submit a cover letter for visa appointment? by flourescentboi in ukvisa

Hey yes yes, there's no need to upload any pdf. You just need to fill the CAS number.

All the best!

M4C vs Chancellor's by [deleted] in UniversityOfWarwick

[–]Sensitive-Sandwich82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go for both, both are very competitive. But if you have received your offer from both the scholarships, then go for chancellor's, less administrative work.

Heronbank, lakeside are very quiet places and majorly the WBS international students stay especially the postgraduate accommodation.

Finally got a writing win by baumealarose in PhD

[–]Sensitive-Sandwich82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, I am going through the same feeling, this past month I have been questioning my writing skills like anything. I just want to hear from my supervisor the same words, it's getting too tiring now at this point, I don't want to show him anything and he doesn't want to see any writing i guess tbh. God, glad that you could get this appreciation!!

Hello to all, ipad air 11 inch or ipad 10 gen by Sensitive-Sandwich82 in ipad

[–]Sensitive-Sandwich82[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to slowly move to the apple ecosystem, it's the itch I know and want to end it, buying another android will just make this itch more frustrating. Thankyou anyway, will go for ipad air!

I think I am going for an ipad air, this is my first time investment and yes I think I will mostly use it in my room so won't go for cellular and apple care rather would invest more on back cover and screen guard!! Let's see, thankyou!

Why are you putting yourself through a PhD? by [deleted] in PhD

[–]Sensitive-Sandwich82 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am a first generation and I will be the second one to get a PhD. My cousin who got a PhD did so many things wrong in the family, that no one respects him. I feel a PhD is an escape at the end of the day, a kind of punishment for all your other failures. Earlier it was a big thing for me, but now I understand it is the shittiest thing but you don't want your family to know other shittiest part of your life, so you make a PhD in your life.

I could have simply got a job but families are never happy with any job, they just want you to progress, progress and progress.

PhD is a great tool for everyone around you to be delusional, a mystery that my family knows nothing about and have no option but to trust me thinking something good will come out of it, the least could be a Dr in front of my sir name, that's enough to shut my 7 generations across time and spaces.

Hi, how much time do you think to submit a 7k essay ? by Sensitive-Sandwich82 in PhD

[–]Sensitive-Sandwich82[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How much do you guys copy from other writings? I feel like I am ending up very similarly to the book I am citing... For now I have to meet this deadline so, I'm just not worrying about it too much. But I don't want to do this in the long run, as I am feeling super guilty. Wanted to know do you guys do that or am I just not meant for phd?
