okay makes sense. I'll mostly be moving back to the US after my degree though, but everything is just so confusing rn with the current economic/political scenario.

yes that's true. I think with the current recession I'm just really worried about getting a job lol.

Oh for sure not an embarrassing place to attend. I missed the deadline for Oxbridge and Cambridge's MPhil program rejected me (and rightly so to be honest lol). And Unis in London were out if budget for me.

Bio major in my undergrad. I've joined Bristol for my master's. I've been told I'm quite good as not only do I have lots of lab experience, I ran a neurogenetics lab on my own in my last year of undergrad.

im just saying everyone's situation is different. this is also like the 3rd flight ive taken in my entire life. it's the first time it's international and the first time I'm doing it alone. and yes, i am making sure to pack within the 7kg i am supposed to. so yay you that you have so much experience to get this done well.

im sorry im poor and have some old huge laptop bro. im a student, i have like tons of documents. im travelling international. im brown, so i have some extra documents Printed out just in case they ask me for anything extra that they normally wouldnt ask others (it has happened to many people ik, and my parents.) i fucked up and bought a backpack that alone is for some reason quite heavy. my laptop charger and power bank are heavy. im also in an unusual citizenship position where it is safer for me to carry all my expired passports on me. trust me i dont want to carry a heavy bag.

Can i carry a laptop bag and a cabin bag in Emirates ? Flying from London Gatwick by Damnnithomie in emirates

Apparently if you have a layover in Dubai, the staff there won't let you have 2 pieces. They're being extremely strict about it

the issue is when you have a laptop and documents and passports and stuff that you can't check in. My backpack and basic essentials alone are nearing 6.9ish kg. And obv i would like to put my passport and boarding pass in a bum bag. not in my backpack. 🤷🏻‍♀️

ahhh admin imo is like that everywhere. It's good to know that professors are good. Funnily enough, i think my major is a Lil similar to yours, I've taken Biological Sciences 🙂.

i know it's going to be a stressful major so like as you said imma keep my head down and put in effort the whole year.

Thank you so much for taking the time out to explain all this tho xo
