    Hello and thank you for your video. I am born and raised Canadian and just wanted to suggest that your experiences with your neighbours and the loneliness you are feeling might be exacerbated by the pandemic. I know my daughter was in her first year of University last year and she did not have any neighbours because of the pandemic. Hopefully when things return to normal you can find some more friendly neighbours. We tend to be reasonably friendly people here.

    Thanks for this. It is interesting to see how new residents see Canada and the people here. Some thoughts: 1) people living in apartments tend to keep to themselves here, maybe for privacy?2) I will try to be friendlier to new residents 3) on meeting new people, maybe you could join a club or two... our daughter joined the International Students association or club when she did her masters in a US university and met many good friends who she still corresponds with today,

    Hi Yemisi, great video!!!!
    Could you also do a video on how to dress to grad school? How learning and studying is? Assignments, balancing school with work and life et al. Hearing a lot about how difficult grad school and education in general is a bit different and difficult.

    • @MsYemisi
      @MsYemisi  3 роки тому

      Hi Bolu, I've not started in person classes yet. But I'll say that there is no special outfit for grad school. You have the liberty to wear anything you want.
      And it's true that balancing school and work life is stressful. The education system is different so it takes a gradual process to settle in too but we can adjust.
      I'll make a detailed video once I start experiencing in person class. Right now, I'm on break so it's not affecting my work.
