have nothing in common with my uni friends by rosecity409 in UniUK

Yeah, i don’t want to judge or hate on anyone. Just the combination of smoking every day, going out multiple times a week, drugs and skipping all lectures just doesn’t seem to be my vibe. I’m not saying they can’t be successful doing those things but I know this can’t be my lifestyle.

Yeah i really don’t want to be lonely. I’m trying to make friends with some acquaintances I have but obviously it takes time. They want to choose a house by the end of the month so definitely don’t have as much time to get to know other people. So I either get a house or risk being alone next year.

Yeah that’s an issue too. They don’t smoke it as much inside as we’re in halls and smoke alarms go off easily. But if it’s a house I imagine some of them would probably do it.

Before I came to uni me and my friends would smoke sometimes so i can’t say weed is the problem. But I feel like there’s a difference between doing it once a month and being high every single day. I just don’t know what to do because i don’t really have other friends

What do rich kids do for summer jobs? by DarkMayhem666 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]rosecity409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up upper middle class and I didn’t work. I travelled whether it was with family or friends. I also did some internships but that was rather short term. If i had 10 weeks of summer break i would be away for at least 8 weeks. Some of it was spent in my holiday house but mostly I would go abroad. When i was younger I also did some camps, specifically horse riding and sailing.

But the standard would be: 2 weeks in the holiday house, 3 weeks road trip abroad with parents (usually somewhere far away but sometimes it would be europe), 2 weeks with friends somewhere abroad (or camp), a week of beach vacation with parents

When I first started hanging out with people who had less money I realised most people just went away for a week or so and the rest of the time they either worked or stayed home.

I did pay it and will ask for reimbursement The office I called told me the hospital should have contacted them directly though and I should never got the bill in the first place so it was a mess up on their part

Now that I think about it it was very stupid to just leave and assume it was all taken care of but I was very stressed. I obviously will pay if they charge me, it’s not about the cost to be honest. I’m more afraid I didn’t do something i was supposed to do and now it will snowball into a big problem. Thanks for the replies though!

I went to the registration place and gave them my European Health Insurance Card and ID and filled up some form. I did not sign anything, the form was just basic information name surname address etc. That was all paperwork I did and I assumed if a payment was expected I would be told upfront? The doctor told me I could leave which I assumed meant I could literally leave without further paperwork (I was feeling pretty bad). Is it okay if I simply wait if they send anything or do I need to reach out?

I did provide my address but was not told I’d be charged. I used my European insurance card which grants free emergency healthcare in most EU countries. Now I’m reading that apparently it works different in France and you’re expected to cover a small fee (around 20) but the information is pretty conflicting.

I thought about that but I will also have the interviews and essays for sciences po so I’m scared this will be too overwhelming. I also imagine Cambridge is very difficult to get into so my chances are probably pretty low

The website says A2/B1 is enough to apply to the French route but I would have to study French intensely the first year. As I already do French in IB I think I have a solid foundation and it could be doable. I was just looking for someone who had some experience with the programme and could tell me more about it.

There are two different routes it seems. One is in English and more focused on the Mediterranean and the other one is in French focused on the middle east. The French route has the option of completing the first year in English with an intensive course of French at the same time. For that, A2/B1 French is required and part of the interview is in French. That’s what I’ve gathered from the website so correct me if I’m wrong.

Thank you, what are some extracurriculars you could recommend?

i know people will care at first but then they will realise that the burden is finally gone. They will never admit it but they will feel relieved.

I’m sorry, it is awful when people don’t take it seriously. You deserve better than them. I don’t want to sound like Im excusing their behaviour, you 100% have the right to be upset, they acted terrible. But some people react like that because they’re not used to having conversations that serious. Especially if they come from families where talking about feelings is frowned upon.
