🇿🇦South African girl living in Japan 🇯🇵 Sharing my experience as a teacher in different spaces and countries + Lifestyle Content. New Video Every Sunday
It may be an oversight but some programs have an upper age limit worth mentioning. You seem pretty young, but this came across my feed and I'm way above your age group. Hope this point helps older viewers
I feel like being pregnant in Japan has given you the impression that you’re bigger and baby is bigger than what is expected. But your pregnancy belly is a normal size for each stage of your pregnancy, considering you’re African. Your baby size is average for an African baby. It just feels like they scared you into thinking things were not what’s considered normal for our ethnicity. I’m so sorry for what you went through. And it’s really not right you don’t get to go into labour naturally when your body and your baby are ready.. Cervical checks that early in pregnancy are also not necessary and tell you nothing because with your first baby of course you won’t be dilated at 36 or 37 weeks...and the doctors know this. Eish man, So sorry and wishing you the very best.
Hey Zuri thank you so much for sharing your experiences with us, I looove your videos. If you don’t mind me asking why were you rejected for the JET Program?
Hi Zuri! My name is Bisola, I am 29 years old. One of the best things that happened to me today was coming across your video on RU-vid. Information they say is power. Thank you for sharing this juicy information. However, I hope it’s not too late to apply for your TESOL certification giveaway. I studied English and I have been teaching physically until early this year, when I transitioned from physical class to online. Since then I have discovered more online teaching opportunities abroad but my only constraint is finance coupled with the present economic hardship of my country (NIGERIA). Yes, I earn from my online teaching but the pay is not much as it only caters to my basic needs. I will be very glad if am considered for this giveaway because it will be a great source of empowerment for me. As the first daughter in my family, this will, in turn, help me to lift others. Because what is life if you can’t lift others if you can? Just as you are doing right now. Thanks and God bless you!
My network was down yesterday, I was so frustrated I couldn’t watch the video😂😂😂 Your videos make me fall in love with Japan more❤️ Can’t wait to meet the baby, even if you hide his face it don’t matter 🥳🥰
😂😂😂ish you see it’s getting tricky now bc on the next vlog I must either blur his face or not post at all just to have peace of mind. But the birth vlog is definitely on its way. I’m glad you could watch Zama 🩷🥹
All I am asking for is for him to lie and say (no babe you don’t look pregnant 😭) you know? Is that too much to ask for? 😂 also he answers that question so quick all the time 😭
Thank you so much for this info. It has helped me a lot. I have an interview as result of the info here. Next week I have another interview. First one I passed and got the offer.
Omg, I wish I could hug you bathong. 🥺🥺😭😭 You made me so emotional, women are so phenomenal. Baby Zuri is going to be in such good hands, wishing you the best, queen ❤❤ Also, you're spoiling us with these vlogs, Mama! ❤❤❤ thank you
Girl!! I have so much to say about this. EVERYTHING you said is spot on. I’ll be dropping a video soon to share my experience as well. I saw someone in comments saying they started their own business and as someone who really loves teaching online, that’s the route that I’ve decided to take as well, and so far so good! It’s the only way! 😊
I really enjoyed it too but so many of these instances were happening so it made me just want to pause it for a bit. Please let me know how your own business works out because it sounds really interesting. I had private clients outside of the website but scheduling was a bit hard.
Yea neh, to be pregnant is to go through A LOT. When I was induced for labour , my baby gave no f*cks. I ended up getting a C-section. Prepping for surgery is awful, they insert things and and and..... The funny part is I look back now and laugh. I hope you also had a laugh whilst editing your video - pregnancy amnesia is real. During pregnancy you cry but a few months from now, you'll be laughing.
I hope in a few months from now I will look back and not be so emotional and relive the pain 😭 Having a birth plan and wanting to give birth naturally is something else. But I didn’t mind either one.
Hi Zuri, hope you are doing well. With regards to JET, do we use the original criminal record or I can photocopy the original and have 1 in colour and the others in Black and White? I’m applying for different programmes and I would like to use the same criminal record. Q2. When taking your PCC to Dirco or court, do they put stamps on the original paper or they do copies? I don’t know if I’m making sense. Please assist
On the JET program website there is a list of documents they want from you and they say if they want a copy or not please refer to that list as I don’t remember. Q2: I don’t know anything about that as we didn’t have to do it for JET
I remember the pain my sister went through with the cervix check lol my mum was at breaking point however everything was worth it at the end You are definitely stronger than you think.Congratulations to both of you 🎉🎉 .Youll did it!!!!!
I remember how a friend of mine who had a baby later than us was so emotional and asking us how come we never gave details about the pain and emotions that come with giving birth, or when the baby is close. I’m happy you captured your journey and you’re sharing it with us so that all moms to be and those planning to be moms see. I’m extremely over the moon for you guys 🥹🥰
I watched so many videos and they all said the cervical check was just uncomfortable so that was my expectation 😭 little did I know that it was sooo painful 😣 Thank you for your kind words 💕
Now I understand why you encouraged me to document my journey❤ This was so beautiful to watch... When you cried, I literally cried with you because pregnancy humbled us😂
Oh my babe. This was such an emotional video especially knowing you’re so far away from your mom who would normally teach/show you more about motherhood, but know that you’re doing okay and you’re going to be fine. All the best with baby’s arrival❤
