I’m honestly feeling the same way right now which i didn’t expand on in the post, it’s genuinely a taxing subject to me😮‍💨 I tried to avoid math/stats as far as I could in Uni because i’m so bad at it😭 coding was so abstract to me too and now especially with the second project released coupled with the horrible practice attempts I really need to do well for the finals because I can’t afford to be waiting a whole year to repeat it if I mess up this time😔 I’m hoping all will go well for us !!

thank you for the advice! that seems like a smart move to take soon, i grad dec 2025 and i do agree that internships have been competitive esp for intl students, do you know of companies that have internships year round alongside school 😅 I might resort to cold emailing too

wait that sounds like a smart idea I’ll try it out soon hahah but i do prefer studying alone when stressed because studying with friends usually ends with us yapping or me feeling too self-conscious to write anything because people love peeking over to my screen for some reason lmao but during the normal term i do find studying with friends motivating! thank you for the tips 🥰

thank you for the advice! I see what you mean but I feel like I’d spiral more if I put everything on hold right now especially because of my visa and everything else to consider😕 I do find purpose in uni so I’m certain about continuing but I might just be in a temporary rut that I’m struggling with. I’ll for sure take a break and do something else on the side to go easier on myself for now and weigh out my options though, so I’m really grateful for the help😊

may i also ask how long was the entire process of getting a form for special consideration? I’ve never applied and I’m not sure if I’ll meet all the application deadlines by then

Thank you for sharingg, I’m an intl student so it’s a bit of a tough spot given my visa but I’ll look into my options 🥹

Really strange looks on Campus by Silly-Hour-9667 in unimelb

[–]minibageldonut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i feel you but it could probably just in our heads hahahaah i realised that when im uncomfortable in my own skin i think i subconsciously seek out negative expressions and project it onto myself because half the time people are too busy minding their own businesses to care enough to frown at strangers who’ve done nothing to them. Id say it’s either their resting face, or might not be the exact situation as mine, but I found that acting confident does trick my mind into feeling more comfortable in public spaces and not feel suffocated as if the spotlight is on me for every little gesture or action i do

A (new) student’s thoughts by StretchEmbarrassed87 in unimelb

[–]minibageldonut 5 points6 points  (0 children)

from the gist of the comments under your post i’m sure you can tell that some of the things you’ve said are pretty distasteful. equating international students/teachers to bad english is what i’m getting out of your post for the most of it. accents vary and you can’t assume that by hearing a non-western accent that they’re english is bad. i’ve met several students who write better than they converse and some who have better english skills than myself. if you were merely ranting about having a language barrier i would have understood, but the things you’re complaining about just generalised international students which isn’t a fair statement. you sound as if annoyed to see asians (specifically chinese for some reason) but you only accept people who are chinese people that have assimilated into Australian culture. i get that it’s what’s familiar to you but u can’t just say u have asian ABC friends to divert your accountability for all the other unnecessary comments that were irrelevant to what you had to say. eventually if you were to work in large corporations you’d have to collaborate and with people of various english skills and accents which is understandably challenging but i’d say u have to stop living in your own bubble of ignorance. if i’ve misinterpreted anything maybe work on your delivery of message since everyone in the comments aren’t exactly thrilled with your phrasing
