 Hey guys, welcome to my Dose. Do you want to do my intro? Yeah. What's up guys? KarmaMedic here and welcome back to another Dose. You nailed it. Hey guys, so Alexia is visiting in London which has been really, really nice. I feel like I've taken a bit of a step back from being super hard working and managing my time as much as possible every single minute of the day. We've been going out quite a bit, walking around and enjoying. Always safety with masks. Always safety with masks. Yeah, of course, as everyone should be during this time. So I'm actually moving out of London to a city about an hour and a half away for my next clinical placement. I'm going to be starting Mental Health. We're going to be living in a shared flat, which I haven't done in a long time. There's going to be eight of us to a flat, shared bathroom, shared kitchen. So that'll be interesting to see as well. I'm going to take a lot of my cooking stuff, all my camera gear and things like that as well so I can keep you guys involved and show you how it goes. Tomorrow I've actually got my first progress test of my fourth year of medical school. Alright, going to start. Wish me luck. So yeah, today Alexi and I are just walking around in the parks and in some nice areas that we were in before, around Pannington and Bayswater. It's really good to take a break whenever you can. Isn't that right, Lexi? The park in the inner city areas that we're walking in before really makes me feel like I haven't explored London enough. I've been here for three years, but I always go to like the same places or the most common places, the most well-known places. And I feel like there's still so much for me to explore, so much to see. I have plenty of time over the next couple of years, but I just need to make a more conscious effort to go and about exploring these different areas. Alexi has found these two little trees that are really nice. So we're going to take the tube to Soho where we're going to eat Baoban. I've actually never had a Baoban. Alexi says they taste really good. So we're going to go try them out. Isn't that right, Lexi? I believe who was sitting right behind us over there, who's now gone. It is Daisy Edgar Jones, otherwise known as Marianne from Normal People. And Alexi and I were both completely starstruck. And thankfully Alexi worked up the courage to go and say hi to her. To say we really like your show, we're obsessed with it, we have one episode left, blah, blah, blah. I was definitely too nervous to go say hi. And she seemed really nice, really sweet. Yeah, very down to earth. It was really cool to meet her. We've ordered these like teas, quite good. And waiting on our Baobans to show you one of them. Alright, Lexi, name your top three Baobans. I only had two, so... Honestly, the best one was for sure the fried chicken. Same, I completely agree. It's what they recommend. I also had the lamb one, which was quite good. If you guys come to Baoban Soho, you should check them out. Oh, wait, what? Oh, it might be. Alright guys, so all done with lunch now. We just went to Whole Foods. Got a couple of snacks that we can have them at home and enjoy over the next couple of hours. And right now we're in Piccadilly Circus. Which you guys might have seen if you've come to London. It's been a long, long day of walking around. Gonna head home, do a little bit of work, do my last amount of preparation for tomorrow's exam. And then yeah, wake up tomorrow, nice and early, and get writing. Hey guys, back home now. We've just been sitting down on our phones chilling for a little bit. Gonna really, really tired from the long walk that we did today. Like I mentioned before, I have my first progress test of the year tomorrow at 10 a.m. So I've just sat down now for a little bit. I'm gonna go through a couple of past medicine questions on the computer and take notes down here on my iPad as I always, always do when studying for my exams. Since this test is a progress test, I'm gonna be tested on material I won't have studied yet that will be covered in the future throughout years four and then five. So I'm not really too concerned about doing very well because I haven't studied the vast majority of the material. It's just sort of a good test to see where you are, how much you already know, and what you need to focus on moving forward. Just gonna bang out a couple of questions for a bit. I think I'll leave you guys over here if the camera sits. Which it does, fantastic. Just finished my first ever online medical school exam. I think it went well, wasn't bad at all. It was just a bit strange to do one online instead of a big exam hall. But now Alexi and I have come to the local high street in order to get some lunch. We're going to this place called Good Life Eatery. It has like these salmon, quinoa bowls and stuff like that which we quite like and is probably Alexi's favourite. Heading home now, but very interestingly while we were at that... I'm like the little head just bobbing up and down. You fit in frame though. As we were leaving that store, Alex was getting her matcha latte. One of you guys recognized me, came up to me to say hi which was really really great experience. Almost every day that Alexi and I have been out this week one of you has recognized me and come to say hi which is absolutely crazy to think about. It's so strange that people would recognize me on the street and want to take a photo with me or anything like that. But yeah, if you guys do see me in public please do feel free to come say hi. I love talking to you, I love meeting you. It would be a pleasure. Heading home now, going to do a little bit of work and then see what we do. No work, no work. No work, only fun things. Like what? Fun stuff, film. We finished Normal People. Really good show. I told you guys, we met Marianne. I thought I hadn't told you for a second. Alright guys, back home now and look at what arrived. Very, very excitingly. My new lens. 1.8, 20mm, which is going to be great like completely, completely blur out my background and keep me in tack sharp focus. We've got shutter speed 1 over 50 F 1.8 ISO 100 and I think we are good to go. This is all in an effort to make my vlogging setup on the A7S3 as small, lightweight and compact as possible. That's Alexia's vlogging camera and now we have a whole shelf of cameras. Pretty crazy. Alright, so next now I'm going to chill a little bit. I'm going to look at this Sony lens and enjoy myself with my new tech and yeah, catch you guys in a bit. Peace. I'm asking for you. I'm not kidding. What? What sort of thing? Actually, are you sure you can move the lens? Yeah, it's supposed to be hard. I'm so excited. Oh my god. I'm actually shook. I think there's a soap on there. Shite out. Good morning guys, it is Sunday and today is the day. I am moving an hour and a half and I've got a bunch of packing to do. I've currently got an empty suitcase and I feel like this is going to be a bit of a difficult packing job because I need to take clothes, I need to take cooking equipment all the small things that I might need here and there. I've got a bunch of camera gear as well I need to decide what I'm going to take of this vlogging equipment, tripods and things like that. So I feel like I do have quite a bit of things to think about. I'm also deadly scared that I'm going to forget a charger or like a piece of equipment that I really want and then I'm going to be there and need it to look around my entire room like piece by piece and tell myself, do I need that? Do I need that? Do I need that? Do I need that? Etc. Etc. I'm going to set you guys up over here and then you can watch me run around and pack like a madman because my friend Rachel from medical school is coming to pick me up at 5pm so I've got a couple of hours to get everything ready saying my last goodbyes to Alexia before I disappear as well. Anyways, going to get started packing and I'll talk to you soon. Alright guys, I am pretty much done anyways, please ignore how messy that shirt is folded there. I've got my shoes, running shoes, clinical shoes, got my shirts, everything that I need for exercise going to the gym, pajamas, got plenty of t-shirts, hoodies, jackets, etc. I think I'm going to be good. Now as far as electronics goes well, minus Alexia straightening her hair, I think I've decided that I'm only going to take this small vlogging camera at least for now. I really do want to take my big camera with the new lens and the new microphone setup that I have but I'm not going to take it at the moment because it's just the beginning I want to go and settle in before I actually take some big heavy camera gear. Since now I'm going for a couple of days and then coming back to London I just want to take sort of the majority of things that I'm going to leave there and then once I check out the vibe, see what it's like you know, how much space I actually have, how much I can film and things like that I'll decide how many more things I want to take. Sounds good. Ooh, almost forgot. Now, the next thing that I need to do is what I'm going to take with regards to cooking equipment because as you guys know, I cook the vast majority of my meals and I want to continue to do that when I'm there so now I'm in the kitchen and I don't know how I'm going to do this I do need to take like a pot, a pan plate, cutlery I need stuff for coffee, tea food, I'll buy food from there but I need to take a couple of key essential cooking utensils and tools so I can actually make food when I'm there so let me go get my tripod alright, so I have been at it in the kitchen for a little bit and I've decided on quite a few things that I want to take with me I've got here some protein powder for after my runs double bag size doesn't pop, one pan so that's pretty much it, there really isn't that much there I think this should be good at least for the beginning and I'll identify what I need as I go along and I can always bring it with me later on alright, so let's put these in a bag let's see if I can make it work I have finished packing I've got all of my electronics, my kitchen stuff toiletries, so I'm pretty much good to go just need to eat some food pop down to the shops to get a couple last minute things and then get going so I'll catch up with you guys in a bit so this is it, my life packed for the next 8 weeks or so I'm honestly really going to miss this room I've spent the last 3 years making it perfect I know I'm going to come back every week but it's going to feel strange to move to a completely different physical location I was telling Alexia earlier that I kind of feel like I'm going to my first day of university, like driving up there with my bags packed and everything going to meet new people and settle in the new apartment it's going to be a good experience, I think change is always good and it'll be a way to branch out and see medicine in a different area than strictly central London alright guys, time has come on our merry way going down to meet Rachel in the car see you in her I feel like I'm going too no I'm not, I'm good alright, so we just made it to the hospital the drive wasn't too bad at all we got our set of keys from the hospital now we're going to be heading to the accommodation it's going to be pretty exciting I'll show you guys what it's like once we get there and yeah, moving in moving in I'm just moving in the door is open that was easy alright, so I've just walked into my room and first impressions are this is alright it's kind of small an L-shaped desk over here with some drawers a chair what looks like a very uncomfortable bed but I'll let you know after I've slept on it once a chair here a sink with a mirror in my room this is a first for me but we'll see how it goes and then what is closet space over here so I can hang up my shirts and things like that I think I'm going to end the vlog over here I'm just going to unpack and make this room a little bit more of my own put everything in its place and organize things like that and then yeah, try and find out where everyone is go and hang out with them and relax for the night stay tuned for the future videos about my experiences living in this room, going to the hospital in this area and everything like that so I hope you guys have enjoyed the video hope you've enjoyed this vlog, if you did, don't forget to leave a like on it and subscribe to my channel, see more content from me in the future I'll catch you guys in the next one peace alright, so I'm just unpacking all of my food into my designated closet and I come across this, that is all mould inside of the f***ing bread packets that is absolutely disgusting
