Not sure whether or not you will see my note, but still would like to make a point about it. Am teaching and researching in a Bham Uni myself and if you really want to sort things out properly, you can email the PGR administrator in your department, and copy your lead supervisors, and/or the lead of the PGR at your Uni to the email, depending on how much you want to go down the formal complaint route dealing with the technician. I would if I were you, if the technician has been difficult with you and other colored students. Making a formal complaint about the person and make the relevant people in charge know that you are not just moaning about an unfriendly colleague, they will, or should, deal with it by following a certain procedure. 祝你好运!也祝你博士学业顺利
That’s really useful. Low crime doesn’t mean no crime. No matter if you go to work or going to meet someone, Just be vary from all surroundings and stay vigilant. Even if you work in different job position, always be alert from someone who might be speak something might offending you. If not, everything will be fine.
Related to your saying about taking the piss - a random joke came to mind. When my girlfriend called someone b*tch - they are best friends. When she calls someone sweet heart, they are probably archenemy. You really have to be very close to mock someone without fear of them taking offense.
Ooh....thx a lot 4 your valuable information and its very interesting as well.Great...I enjoy hearing that from a native in UK who is also have a excellent knowledge of chinese language.! Cool !
Regarding English, adapting to non-native accents is more difficult to me. I would say listening to Indian accent is quite challenging as they usually speak very fast and their intonation is quite different from standard accent. 😅
Thank you very much for your sharing on British culture. It is very useful . As mentioned in your video, you mentioned that we have to be more careful at night. At this point, I have thought of the weather in UK. As the sky turns dark a bit earlier sometimes even turning dark in the afternoon during winter . I am thinking if it would be more dangerous for kids/ young teenagers to go around by themselves even in the afternoon during winter. Thank you ! 🙏
My phone was pickpocketed in London, and also was robbed by a guy on bike for twice within just 8 months. My friend’s phone also robbed by a guy on a bike in London too. I’m very alert on the street now. Don’t use phone and walk close to the road. Be careful even when you are using phone to search maps. Using earphone is easy to become target too.
I remember that when I was in London. At the Friday's and Saturday's night, people were likely to be drunk anyway. Hahahaha And I should be careful whilst I passed by them.
Have you been to Yorkshire love? I’ll meet you at York station. Bring some lard and plenty of money! Looking forward! Don’t worry about qlrpf etc up ere!!!
Here (hk), i'd freely without much concern to go out at very night time for jogging in practically anywhere i'd like to go to. So, do you mean that it is not a good idea to go for walking in a park in UK?
True. They talk English, but never in the RP accent that we learned; They're really houseproud, and brag their gardening, cooking, retrofitting garage to bedroom, bedroom to kitchen and kitchen to bathroom in their leisure time. They just have nothing else to do; Yes, this is prejudice, based on the observations over them, sorry. In non-city areas, there can be almost no street lights, which could be quite dangerous. If you don't want to be dogged, bring a tactical torch with you.
Susie Your putonghua is excellent Every time listen to your channel Can't help feeling you are language pro! You can read the chinese characters too Brilliant We write so little now due to the use of phone Losing chinese character word by word Alarming …
I just move to live in London for 1-year studying. Now I live with a local 42 years old woman, but I do not really like her :( She always likes to tell others what things we can put at public place, and what things cannot just because she think that it is not beautiful for her. Besides, she really likes to raise lots of plants, but she seldom clean up the dried leaves... and I think there are around 50% of whole things which belong to this woman in this house. Above all what I said, I think that I still can tolerate, but the worst is her live habits! After cooking and having a meal, she does not like to clean immediately, and always like to put them several hours later or even tomorrow... and after cleaning, there are still some food residue on the tableware:') Moreover, when we argue something about these, she just said that all of roommates do not appreciate what she did for this house? she think that she makes a really comfortable living environment. (Actually, I think that she does little to this house, and she just does what she needs and likes... Since I live in this house one month ago, I never saw her clean this house, like mopping floors and taking out the trash.) So, all in all, I cannot understand why she always like to ask others not to do something, but she can? and why a person has lived 42 year, but she still does not know how to clean and wash tableware... how a dirty woman :)
Even I have no intentions on living in the Great Britain, having a better knowledge on English language is definitely the most important part when living or studying there.
Your name is 戴舒萱 while your RU-vid channel is called Susie Woo . 吴 and 戴 are different last names In China . Is Chinese last name 吴or 戴? it is confusing . BTW , your Chinese mandarín me has a Taiwanese accent .
