      I resonate so much that point about regrets. The pandemic ruined my first year (but also I had depression so lmao) and I regretted not doing SO MUCH. Now that I’m returning to redo my second year, I’m looking forward to January because there’s so much I want to do (some of which you’ve inspired me to do!!) but I’d like to take it slower and at my own pace, like you suggested :D

      @@Nebulousart everyone has their own pace and it’s so important to stay focused on that - as long as you know what you’re doing, that’s all that matters! Take care and I wish you all the best when you continue in January🥰

    I've been watching your videos ever since senior year started & it feels weird now to think that i'm now a first year student at UBC starting this fall, it would be cool to randomly bump into you on campus & get to say hi! good luck wt the next semester! : )

    Hi Yvonne, such a big fan 😉. Although I’m a 4th year transfer, due to COVID, I haven’t been able to experience what university life is all about as well as what the Campus has to offer. Quick question for you, what can I expect at Imagine Day next week?
    Also a tip that I have is to keep in mind your goals constantly. Especially when it comes to GPA and post grad studies. If you’re planning on taking a masters/doctorate, plan accordingly based on the different school requirements as all programs get increasingly competitive each year. Consider all your possibilities and stick to a plan that you create for course selection etc. GPA plays a huge role in these programs so strategically picking your profs and courses can significantly increase your chances of getting in during your intake. I know Yvonne had a diff opinion on GPA boosters but there will def be a time where you might need an easy A.

    Thank u soooo much for posting the fb page handles for second hand books and other stuff it's gonna come handy 😋🤗✨ and i have a few questions about these exchange programs (as far as ik there's no such thing in my country 🐼)
    1) r these funded by the university?
    2) traveling expense+accommodation is on us right?
    3) so is it like u will complete one sem Or whatever duration in another country's uni instead of ubc and then u come back
