A Week in My Life @ University in San Francisco!! Studying, Questival and Hectic Energy 😌

I look back at these videos and wow, Jade was stressed. 😂 Yayyyy enjoy a week in my life at university in the US! This was my second proper week here at Minerva uni in SF. From studying, to exploring, to QUESTIVAL (the day-challenge which starts at 9:20), it was such a good week! It's funny watching myself navigate life here. Can confirm I'm a lot more settled and a lot less stressed (maybe) now! 😌

Minerva is this strange and wonderful new form of higher education in San Francisco! Instead of lectures, we have 'classes' (like seminars!) on an active learning Forum designed around the science of learning. This year is Foundation Year so we all take the four same courses: Complex Systems, Multimodal Communications, Formal Analyses and Empirical Analyses. These sound super vague hehe but I'll do a video explaining them at some point! Next year we choose our majors 🌟 Our cohort is VERY international. I'm the only British gal. We're from nearly 50 countries I think!!

Yayyy I hope you enjoy the video! 🥰 Through the heftiness of focusing on real life, I really don't think I expressed enough in this video how grateful I am to be here. The opportunities, the people, the city, the academics; I really am a fan. Sending lots of love from SF!! x
