Hey, Students!

How does waiting shape us? Why does it feel like both a burden and a gift?

In this episode, I'm sharing my own experience as an international student, navigating the highs and lows of waiting - from awaiting acceptance letters to the bittersweet countdown to go home.

Along the way, we'll explore the science behind waiting, from how it affects students' mental health, to how silence and reflection during those waiting moments can spark self-discovery.

But don't worry, this isn't all theory. I'll bring in insights from research, humor, and real student life - because waiting is something we all do everyday. So whether you're waiting for grades, job offers, or just the next semester break (happily the winter break is soon), you might just learn something about yourself along the way.

So, sit tight or stand up and stretch while you wait for that coffee - and let's explore how those moments of waiting can shape who we are and who we're becoming.

Let's get into it!

Enrollment is a hard journey, demanding an endurance. Yet, finally, the rewards are undeniable.

In this episode, I aim to talk about the undergraduate pathway, a road I myself cross. It is truly invaluable to have support along this path, to possess a steadfast core that enables us to progress diligently without regressing.

As night falls, let us ponder under the moon's gaze, finding solace and inspiration in Our shared endeavors.

Dear Parents, Albina and Marat,

As we welcome the New Year 2024, I'm filled with gratitude for your unwavering love and support. Your sacrifices have shaped our journey, and I'm honored to gift you a verse I wrote as a small token of my appreciation. That's for you, dears!

With all my love, your little BeeInBoots

Хотелось поделиться своими мыслями с людьми, которые были вынуждены покинуть свои дома, но все так же разговаривают на русском языке, вспоминают счастливое, светлое и спокойное время. Это импровизационный подкат, в котором я рассуждаю о своих ярчайших впечатлениях о самом большом празднике года.

Стихотворение собственного сочинения для каждого имеет свой смысл. А какой образ и смысл несут эти строки?
