You should definitely ask Yale for a fridge and microwave as you are also risking food poisoning by eating food that isn't being reheated. Also, I'm assuming you are paying for/ got a scholarship for a room that specifically has a fridge and microwave so it means you aren't getting your money's worth if you don't have these amenities!!
aah I'm getting so many comments about the food situation!! this vlog was filmed a month ago - I've been filming lots of videos since then but I'm uploading my videos once a week, in chronological order. I have been out of isolation for ages now. I did get in touch with people at Yale about these issues. Yale provides students with access to fridges and microwaves so I shouldn't need to buy them myself. I was just feeling pretty down on this day and had a little rant to the camera because sometimes speaking and getting things off your chest in that way helps - and it did help me just to verbalise how I was feeling. I like to share how I'm feeling at every step of my journey - whether I'm feeling good or not so good - because I want to show you that it's not all sunshine and rainbows. I don't need advice on this situation, because it is over now. I debated whether or not to include my little rant in the video but I decided I would because I want to be realistic with you all. But we are all good now!!!!!!! I do not need advice!!!! thank you!!!!! have a great sunday!!!!! also.... I LOVE YALE!!!!!!!! and I don't want to complain because I am so so grateful to be here and my experience so far has been overwhelmingly positive!!!! but, again, I don't want to show you all the many many positives and none of the little negatives because that wouldn't be realistic.
Yeah I realised after I’d replied to a comment that you were out of isolation already haha I’ve felt the same way when I couldn’t eat properly or anything at all but I’m glad it’s sorted now :) Yale looks so amazing :)
IM HERE FROM TIKTOK AND I JUST WANT TO WISH YOU GOOD LUCK IN THR NEXT FOUR YEARS, COLLEGE WILL HAVE ITS CHALLENGES BUT WITH HARD WORK AND PERSEVERENCE YOU'LL MAKE IT THROUGH!! ❤❤
OMG EARLY! Also, i raced ur perth bestie yesterday at a swim comp yesterday (she beat me but yolo) and she was talking about you in marshalling bahahahahahh
honestly i felt so bad for you about your food situation. yeah looking back on yourself later you think you look hilarious but honestly I can attest to the fact that when you couple sleep deprivation, jet lag, missing home, feeling unwell, etc. with something inconvenient, it is so normal not to feel okay. I’ve literally been a blubbering mess dealing with shit whilst in a similar mental state. So I’m super glad you’re having a better time food-wise cos it’s really something that can bring down your overall affect and ruin your day ❤️
So glad the food situation got sorted for you! Really appreciate that you share the ups and the downs with us. I’d find that desk chair really off putting haha I’d feel like I was going to fall every time I tried to lean back! Looking forward to more Yale videos 😊
Omg watching this... I was literally thinking I would be crying about the food situation by now. You are so strong. I would definitely be complaining about the food situation, it’s not fair and really cruel for someone that has just arrived from Australia with no one near them!!!! :( Xx
Oh no 😢! Food is important especially when you are relying on other people to provide it for you. Having to keep old food in your room is so disgusting! I would definitely be buying a little bar fridge and microwave ( Amazon delivery?) for the future. Glad to hear it improved once you were out of iso. Xx
I was about to cry when you said you will only eat a banana for breakfast and then I started laughing when future you popped up, a roller coaster of emotions with this vlog 💗
I know this video was from 3 years ago but you should of bought a mini fridge or at least a makeup fridge or something as a substitute for having no fridge given to you. God, 2020 was a year of madness lol love this series!
Why can’t you put it outside the door and let them take it away when they bring you new food, and also the people who brings your food why didn’t you tell them you couldn’t eat that or and ask office to bring your a microwave and refrigerator?
Not sure if this will be the same for you, but when I had to go into mandatory quarantine in New Zealand we just put our meal bags/food rubbish outside the door when we were finished and they got collected :)
I must have missed why your back in isolation? Is it just your or your whole Dorm? Oh wait this is during your first few days! I’m glad things got better after isolation!
Most people bring a mini fridge and microwave with them to university. It’s permitted. Also, ask if they are doing trash pick up outside your room. Best of luck girl :)
yale supplies students with a fridge and microwave (I'm the only person without one - because I came late I think), so I didn't need to bring them with me as they're meant to be supplied by the uni xx
yes this is a great idea!! I'll put up a poll today on my instagram story (@tia.chitty) to ask for questions for a Q&A - so make sure to put all your questions in there ☺️
did they end up giving you a microwave and fridge? I'd be so annoyed especially considering how expensive YALE is. So dangerous too bc of food poisoning
i think you should try softer music for the background of your vids, i’m super duper excited for your yale content but the eletronic beat is a major pet peeve for me
@@TiaChitty it's becoming more and more common. you don't have to have reactions to all the foods either. lookup the Fodmap diet it helped me so much!! fructose intolerance can be so tricky and annoying but once you know exactly what you can and can not have it makes life so much easier. again it can be so hard avoiding things and living in a dorm can be so tricky being allergic to so much, but just try and avoid high fructose things. if you wanna chat about it or need advice my insta is catches_97
Hi Tia. Ask them for a large garbage bag so you can put your rubbish in it and tie the top to help with the smell. Good luck. I'd be ticked off if i was in your situation, especially eating cold foods and luke warm yoghurt. I hope your quarantine time passes quickly. Love your channel which i came across by accident searching flights during COVID.. Thanks for the upload.
Oh my gosh lovely! Can I please buy you a mini fridge and microwave for your room? is that allowed? I can order it on Amazon and get it sent straight to you. Let me know
What are you studying at Yale? Also of you went to UWA it would be so cool to meet you!! also was UWA one of your uni’s you would want to get into if you didn’t get into Yale?
I haven't decided on my major yet! if I went to uni in Australia, my top choices were Bond Uni on the Gold Coast, ANU, and Melbourne Uni, so I wouldn't have gone to UWA
I’m so confused, can’t you just email someone letting them know you don’t have a fridge or microwave? They probably aren’t aware you don’t have them or assume you don’t want them if you haven’t contacted them to ask about it.
because yale supplies them!! (everyone else has one, they just didn't have one for me because I arrived late). it wouldn't be a sensible use of money to buy these when yale supplies them
