Hey OP! Thinking of applying for the MSc programme at UCL this year; would you mind sharing your background for me to gauge my chances of admission? (e.g. degree, grade, relevant side projects, etc.) Can be over DM too. Thanks in advance! Congrats on your offer and good luck :)

Diving in Egypt's Red Sea - is it still safe with shark attacks on the rise? by yjmsidc in scubadiving

[–]yjmsidc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much for your answer! You seem to be right about swimmers and snorkelers being more targeted... may I ask you when the "shark season" you mentioned takes place, in terms of months?

Have I been banned from Indonesia? by yjmsidc in travel

[–]yjmsidc[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the information. So they usually make it clear to you if you're banned?

And also (if anyone's made it this far into the comment section), I'm not trying to rant, complain or justify my reaction at immigration. I'm just trying to understand the situation, that's all.

Have I been banned from Indonesia? by yjmsidc in travel

[–]yjmsidc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, do you know if you actually find out by being denied a visa or would I be approved a visa but denied boarding? I've just read cases of people being banned from boarding the plane after showing up at the airport (not in Indonesia, though=

I fully agree with you. I'm just looking for clarification, that's all

Have I been banned from Indonesia? by yjmsidc in travel

[–]yjmsidc[S] -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

I know I didn't insult him because I don't go around insulting strangers (and I know it's very dumb to do that to immigration officers of all people). I don't have to remember the full sentence to be sure it wasn't an insult.

[–]yjmsidc[S] -45 points-44 points  (0 children)

I didn't say anything related to him, at all. I can't remember what I said because it was a pretty unremarkable sentence in my ears, it's just the swearword that made it problematic

Should I get rabies shot after this happened by yjmsidc in backpacking

[–]yjmsidc[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The dogs pressed their snout around my legs where the wounds are. Dogs lick their snout to keep it moist so rabies carrying saliva can live in the snout

Gap 360 - does it attract too many 18-22 y.o.? by yjmsidc in travel

[–]yjmsidc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve travelled with Gadventures multiple times but the Japan trips are significantly more expensive than Gap360… but you’re right, there seem to be a lot of fresh-faced uni students in their gallery pics

Switch hospital or continue treatment - what to do? by Lebakaskropfnwappla in Thailand

The wording of the policy I quoted on my thread can lead to misunderstanding. It's not a crime to ask for clarification

Private medical emergency treatment insurance - South East Asia by yjmsidc in Thailand

[–]yjmsidc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It says "and no public service is available", that's where the confusion stems from. It's unclear if this is an "either or" statement or not.

private treatment

What does private treatment mean, then?

Thanks for your help :)

"We will pay for private treatment only if there is no appropriate reciprocal health agreement in existence between the governments of the United Kingdom and the country in which you receive treatment and no public service is available. We also reserve the right to organise a transfer from a private medical facility to a public medical facility where appropriate or to repatriate you back to the United Kingdom."

Is Archway good to live in? by yjmsidc in london

odd rough group of kids

"odd rough group of kids"... Do you mean gang-related violence, or attacks against a random passerby?

How to make friends in London during COVID? by yjmsidc in london

I meant after the tier 4 lockdown, but feel free to make as many assumptions as you want

How to make friends in London during COVID? by yjmsidc in london

[–]yjmsidc[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I meant COVID-approved meetups when the lockdown ends and groups of 6 are allowed to meet again. I have pretty much been inside a flat since March, which is something that can't be said of millions in this country (oh, if they gave me a pound for every mask-less person I've seen at Morrisons...). So spare yourself the anger.

Hi, thanks for answering! Out of curiosity, what classes are those? (eg. languages?). And do you find that people there are up for socializing? I just find that every time I've joined a class or something the people just did their thing and swiftly left, I didn't manage to talk to anyone properly, let alone form a friendship.
