I hope you enjoyed this little reflective vlog from my final week in London as a student. I'm not naturally a very soppy or "words of affirmation" type of person, but it's been something I've tried to work on for the past couple of months. Expressing emotions in an Asian household is always a bit of a struggle… Living with Nicole certainly helped, and there will be a moving-out vlog/ flatmate Q&A coming soon, where we answer your questions on that kind of thing!

I also understand finance can be scary for a lot of people – sadly a lot of my female friends agreed it was something they found intimidating or confusing, but I'm so happy to help with any questions. Finance is such a male-dominated field and I would love to encourage other females to consider futures in this area or even just think more about investments in general. With the gender pay gap, women's pensions are already at a disadvantage, combined with the lack of teaching when it comes to money and savings, it's pretty horrific. This will always negatively impact the most vulnerable. I'm no expert and definitely can't give any financial advice myself, but am hoping to pick up the confidence to do more videos on this – specifically how I spend, save, and invest my earnings.

🍽 my free uni cookbook downloadable here:

🍝 chorizo pasta recipe:
1. start with salting your boiling water for your spaghetti. Cook the spaghetti for 8-10 minutes – you want it slightly al dente
2. slice up your chorizo and fry it in a pan till the sausage oils and juices start to come out before adding chopped tomatoes to your pan for 1-2 minutes
3. drain the spaghetti but keep some of the pasta water in a little dish to add into the sausage pan along with the spaghetti and stir for a final 2 minutes
4. add in the herbs and spices – sweet and smoky paprika, salt, dried garlic, dried onion, basil, oregano, parsley, cayenne pepper
5. grate on hard cheese and season with extra salt and pepper as necessary

  2. really happy for you, good luck with the new job! do you get a break before the grad scheme starts or is it straight from the internship to the full time job?

  4. congratulations on landing your new job!! i think i’ve been watching your videos way back when i was just starting high school, now i’m in uni and your videos have become somewhat of a comfort for me, so thank you so much <3

  11. seeing your video put me so at ease, also a KCL student recently graduated and just arrived in Singapore to start my Masters program. unfortunately, I am very dissatisfied with my current studies, I find it boring and am starting to regret this decision to change my major. I am at the important point of whether I need to drop out, reapply and return to London. But your videos have made me forget about all this worry for the moment. Thank you Mei-Ying, you have been my very favourite youtube content creator from 2019 till now
