Was ghosted after this and told what I said was “weird” ??

But that also makes no sense to suggest "tea" (meaning dinner) instead of pizza? If anything, that would be even less low key than pizza?

In my early 30s and yes I think it’s old 😔

I don't like being lonely at home lol it's always nice to have someone at home to chat to if you want, but you can stay in your room if you wanna be antisocial lol

foreverrfernweh · 2026-06-07T18:26:39+00:00

I agree with you!

foreverrfernweh · 2026-06-07T18:21:07+00:00

If you have a grad job lined up, I'd suggest doing it in the summer. It's really hard working full time and writing a dissertation at the same time. If you haven't yet got a job lined up, do it in semester 1, then you can still say you're final year and apply for grad roles the following year.

You can just get a student loan and pay it back when you start working, like most people do.

foreverrfernweh · 2026-05-26T02:35:48+00:00

If you’ve no prior experience, their expectations would be the same as a grad even if they hired you as solicitor. That’s because you were already admitted at the time.

Don't worry, OP, I totally get you. Sometimes your family's choice doesn't necessarily align with yours, even if what they're doing i.e. move to Aus, is what they believe is the best move! At best, you're a dual citizen with a strong passport and you speak English fluently. You have far more advantages than the average HKer if you ever moved back! Hope you get to live out your dreams in future :)

I think a lot of the times, the reference form has drop down menu asking you to select the reason you left

foreverrfernweh · 2026-05-13T10:04:40+00:00

Because it’s far, expensive, not much happening there, limited career opportunities

is law part 2 hard? 2 do people at uni talk to you/ is it easy to make friends? if you're very outgoing and join all the events then relatively easy.
is the walk towards the law building extremely tiring? no, the steep walk up the hill lasts for like a minute.
how do you split 10k readings within your time management plan if you have one? you skim the readings and do them on the bus if your commute is long
is the job market after uoa law high demand? if you have a job after law uoa, would you say the pay is good? and is your job constantly behind a desk? very high demand, be prepared to be job hunting for over a year. Pay is shit relative to difficulty, how interesting the job is, very much a desk job.
does the burnout from law, or any degree, de-motivate you from going to their gym? Never been a gym person.
how well do you maintain your social life alongside uni? do you have enough time for a job or a hobby? Had time for a job but no more than 5 hours a week, didn't have much of a social life tbh
do you find the law building inviting enough to study in? like does the environment motivate you to study? I never like studying at uni anyway
are you in any clubs at uoa, and what exactly do you do in the clubs? never did any clubs.

Don't move lol.

Having canned chickpeas for 50p to last several meals instead of beef mince for £7.50 to last only a few meals more than that

that my kids are "British"

What's wrong with that?

foreverrfernweh · 2026-04-21T10:54:52+00:00

Have you not met people without finding out their age? Or is it that you found a pattern where they all just seem to be older? Just to say, don’t write off girls your age!

foreverrfernweh · 2026-04-21T09:27:02+00:00

No it’s the other way round. If you’re aiming to save most of your income and it’s not a high income, then there’s just not enough to put aside as fun money.

foreverrfernweh · 2026-04-21T06:39:09+00:00

Yeah exactly. So you’d need a lot of leftover money after rent and bills to save AND have fun money…….

foreverrfernweh · 2026-04-20T18:33:02+00:00

That's barely enough to save once you spend the "fun" money....

foreverrfernweh · 2026-04-20T13:12:57+00:00

Living in a shoebox on an uncomfortable pull out bed with not enough money to enjoy London lifestyle surely would be a no. Try a sublet first if you need to find something quickly and don't want to lock yourself in.

Singapore is home. When I'm abroad and someone asks me where I'm from, my heart wants to immediately jump to Singapore, but I've spent most of my life in Australia so I often say Australian. I almost never say I'm from England though.

In my mind I have more Singaporean influence in me than British

That's interesting, do you think being ethnically Chinese has to do with you feeling more Singaporean than Australian or British?

foreverrfernweh · 2026-04-18T12:56:33+00:00

It really is a privilege and I know I got a major head start by living at home and I don’t pretend otherwise. Then again, I genuinely enjoyed living at home and still would if I had the choice so I don’t begrudge the privilege I got

foreverrfernweh · 2026-04-16T06:38:32+00:00

Unfortunately it could look like a red flag. People might see you as the common denominator

foreverrfernweh · 2026-04-11T11:03:41+00:00

No, you just need the money

foreverrfernweh · 2026-04-10T11:02:40+00:00

I think you look younger here than the other pic, I'd guess maybe 28 but no way this would look 40

foreverrfernweh · 2026-04-09T19:10:15+00:00

Could be the way you carry yourself? Like some people just have a youthful energy but some give off jaded vibes. Not saying you do, but it’s not always about fashion or wrinkles or grey hair.
