  • ♡ London university vlog 2018 || Mei-Ying Chow X King's college London ♡
    The video where I show you normal Friday at uni - studying economics and management at KCL!! Meet my course friends and see the Kings Business School campus - the newly bought Bush House. Of course I had to show you my favourite floor, floor 8 "The Meadow" with the huge beanbags and grass carpet. I also visit the Strand Campus Restaurant - The vault - for the first time and Ammar orders some yummy food there. We then head over to one of the oldest libraries in London, the Maughan Library. I studied in the SE Wing of bush house for a bit before my second tutorial of the day. Tutorials are hard to film in as they're smaller classes where we have more discussion and just go over the lecture questions but I tried my best! Let's not forget the most exciting thing of my week - my Friday meal with dad!!! Mei-Ying is eating well tonightttttt!! Then I return back and my College hall friends come and surprise me after a bit of working as I missed the dinner there. We ended up just chatting to the early hours of the morning and then collapsed to sleep ready to start the weekend! A very average Friday! I hope you've been having a great weekend!
    My last Kings College London university vlog - • a "not so average" day...
    If you have any questions about my university course E&M at KCL or my london uni accommodation do let me know in the comments and I’ll reply to them all.
    I’m staying at an intercollegiate hall, which basically means all students from London universities can stay there, so that includes King’s College London, UCL, LSE, SOAS, Birkbek and RVC are all here. I really like it cause I’ve met more people outside the KCL uni group and it gives you lots to chat about when making friends etc.
    Out of the intercollgiate halls, I’m staying at College Hall but my sister stayed 3 years at international halls so I know quite a lot about that one too. They’re all in perfect walking distance to campus and the facilities are super nice as you can see and being catered is a blessing when your day of lectures finishes at 6pm and you don’t have the energy to go shopping and then to cook it - as well as that there aren’t many lidls or Aldis around for cheap food shopping so it can be a bit pricey. I did a video last week where I gave you a tour around my uni accomodation - bathrooms and pantry and all that jazz. The link to that video - • london university room...

      *I would like to warn any colored (brown, yellow, black) student wishing to study at the **_University of Glasgow_** in the United Kingdom to beware of a person called Dr. Michael Kenyon, who is a lecturer at the School of Physics & Astronomy at that university. Kenyon is a narcissistic, twisted racist sociopath. In 1998, Michael Kenyon was an undergraduate at University College London (UCL), and he lived at an accommodation leased by UCL (on Doughty Street, London WC1). From the beginning, he took a dislike to his next door neighbor, an Asian student studying at UCL. This Asian student was quiet and did not bother anyone. But Kenyon was a very different character. He was a manipulative, racist sociopath who hated people in general, but colored people in particular. Kenyon, on one occasion, cut out words from a newspaper and formed the words **_I Am A Paki Wanker_** and pasted the words on a piece of blank A4 paper and stuck it on the Asian student's door late one night, thinking that the Asian student would not discover it until next morning. On another occasion, Kenyon persuaded another resident at the building to write the words **_Vaseline Boy_** next to the Asian student's name on the phone list next to the public phone inside the building, because Kenyon wanted to humiliate the Asian student. The student who wrote the words **_Vaseline Boy_** at Kenyon's behest later regretted it and TipEx-ed it off and informed the Asian student about it. Kenyon also tried to get a couple of friends of the student who wrote **_Vaseline Boy_** to beat up the Asian student. That is how much he hated his Asian neighbor.*
      *_(In the U.K., a "Paki" is a derogatory and offensive word that refers to Asian people from the Indian subcontinent. In other words, "Paki" would be as offensive a word as "nigger" is to black people, or "Chink" is to Oriental people)._*
      *So what exactly triggered Kenyon's pathological hatred for his Asian neighbor (apart from the fact he was Asian)? Well, the Asian student's "crime" (in Kenyon's eyes) was to report Kenyon to UCL's Residence Office about the persistent loud music that came out of Kenyon's stereo **_every single night,_** and he would regularly play his music until 3 am. Yes, A M. Having asked Kenyon to respect his right to sleep on numerous occasions, with Kenyon completely ignoring him, the Asian student had no choice but to take this matter to the UCL authorities. UCL's Residence Officer wrote a warning letter to Kenyon, and this set him off, and his campaign of racial harassment against the Asian student intensified.*
      *The Asian student, after months of racial abuse, decided to move to another residence altogether. But this did not stop Kenyon from continuing to harass his victim. Kenyon got a hold of the Asian student's mobile phone statement after he (the Asian student) had left the Doughty Street residence (this statement was mistakenly sent to the student's old Doughty Street address), which allowed Kenyon to find out the student's mobile phone number. Kenyon left an anonymous message (with a heavily disguised voice) on the student's voicemail, which went like this: **_You are a Paki waaaaaaaaaaaaanker._** Imagine how the Asian student felt when he heard the message. The student took this matter to UCL's Dean of Students who strongly urged him to report this matter to the Police. A police report was lodged at the **_Holborn Police Station_** in London on 4 March 1999 against the sick, racist coward, and the police treated this as a hate crime.*

    I love how efficient you videos are. Instead of showing you and Ammar walking while you were talking you cut to what you were doing later on (which otherwise would have just had music playing in the background).
    For a busy student like me every minute of free time counts so this is perfect because it optimizes the contents of this 5 minute video. Thank you! 😊 (and yes, I’m a business student so time is money, right?)

You seem like a rather optimal business student if you ask me - I like how you think!! Hope your studies aren't killing you slowly and sending you all the hugs 😋😘

It’s comforting to see that life as a university student doesn’t really vary much from each school - all about that classes, assignments and friends life 😂 hope you have a lovely week xx

Trying to balance it is certainly the entertaining part 😂 hope you have a fabulous relaxing week Kimberley xxx

    I know this an old video but I just stumbled across it & I really love this insight into the uni & your life there! I’m from the States & was accepted in February into King’s for a year study abroad program but unfortunately, Covid means I may never get to live out that dream. I’ve wished to move to London for years and years and while these may be hard times, I’m not going to give up on King’s or my dream happening (hopefully) sometime in the future!

    Hey Mei-Ying! I just got an offer to study at King's and your vlog has made me even more excited! I do have a question about catering at college hall: since there isn't any lunch served, what's the best/cheapest ways to get lunch? Is it easy to buy groceries and store them in your dorm, or try and save leftovers to use for lunch? And no 10 years of bad luck for me!!!

Of course I had to show you my favourite floor, floor 8 "The Meadow" with the huge beanbags and grass carpet. I also visit the Strand Campus Restaurant - The vault - for the first time and Ammar orders some yummy food there. We then head over to one of the oldest libraries in London, the Maughan Library. I studied in the SE Wing of bush house for a bit before my second tutorial of the day. Tutorials are hard to film in as they're smaller classes where we have more discussion and just go over the lecture questions but I tried my best!

      Thank you so much and yes uni is a completely new experience but it's great if you have lovely people around to help settle you in. I used the Lenovo yoga Book tablet!! It's the absolute best. My sister got it in the black Friday sales a few years ago and I've linked it in the description and in the pinned comment at the top for others asking! It's just like a surface pro, which everyone else on my course has, but it isn't £1.5k!!! Hope you're doing well Liz 💜

I’m applying for management and in particular in a few London unis. I was wondering if you had any tips on applying, especially in regards to management (what sort of thing to include in your personal statement, the importance of minimum grades, etc) and what your experience was like? Thanks again and keep up the good work!

And any advice on which one to pick - closeness to strand campus, best atmosphere / people, best location etc ? Sorry for all the questions !

    • @meiyingchow
      @meiyingchow  Před 5 lety +1

      Hey there thank you so much! My sister did law at kings and graduated this year funnily enough. She stayed at international halls for all three years however ik for a fact that college hall is better ;) not just bias but it's smaller so there's a stronger community vibe and the food is good and the location is better to more shops and tube stations and it's only a 20 minute walk in the morning! I love the walk too because it's on the north of the river and I get to walk past theatres and beautiful building 🌌 would definitely recommend intercollegiate because meeting people from different unis adds to the experience and makes the conversations more interesting etc 😁

    • @meiyingchow

      First term we studied core maths - like integration and so on and second term we did statistics - so there was coursework on data analysis using different technology softwares which was quite interesting but it was only a quarter of our degree. They do hold lots of extra sessions for students who need help as many people have learnt different skills when it comes to maths.

    thank yoooou!

    • @meiyingchow
      @meiyingchow  Před 5 lety +3

      Ofc London is quite expensive compared to other university but I have to admit being in a catered hall I've only bought 4/5 meals out over the past 2.5 months! I'm rather stingy with money so I'm always saving food from the huuuuuge 3 course dinners and breakfasts to have at lunch etc and I walk everywhere. The nightlife is also quite good compared to other places but entry can be a bit more expensive on some student nights e.g. the first Freshers event was £16... I'm used £3/4 being expensive but since then the prices have gone back to normal £5 price which is decent. My friends really like zoo bar, xoyo and I liked Tiger tiger he most with all the different rooms and variety in music. You're more than welcome!! Well done on your offer toooo 💜💙💜

      They are for additional support, it is very much like a class environment. Some tutorials are mandatory to attend to, for instance if you need to debrief a Science practical - stuff like that. But some are like reviewing and revising, which you can do on your own if you'd prefer.

    Could you make a video about how to get accepted into kcl? I'm an international student and the process scares me.

      Sure. I'm not international so I don't know much about your process but can always ask some of my friends how they did it 😊
