Macron's fiery Sorbonne speech targets summering American Millennials

It’s no coincidence that Emmanuel Macron gave a fiery speech about the threats facing Europe the same week that American Millennials in New York, LA, and Miami began talking about booking their one-way flights to the continent. "There is a risk our Europe could die - we are not equipped to face the risks," Macron said, referring to the dietary allergies, alternative milk needs, and tedious conversations of trust-funded, unemployed young adults who will begin their summer in Paris to attend a museum benefit that spills into a large dinner party with several professional photographers before traveling to Puglia, Comporta, or Ibiza where they will subsist on ‘beautiful tomatoes,’ flat whites, and MDMA. 

Europe has struggled with illegal immigration for decades, and there is no more pressing illegal immigration threat than American Millennials who have decided that being unemployed in Europe is less distressing for their parents than being unemployed in Williamsburg. Google searches for ‘how long can I stay in EU without passport’ spiked in late-April among Americans who have not yet bought a Portuguese passport from a guy who used to run a turnkey Burning Man camp who is now running a Golden Visa scheme in Lisbon. “Our Europe today is mortal,” Macron said. “It can die and that depends solely on our choices,” the choices being whether or not to search and detain for ketamine at customs and how to clearly define tipping protocol in restaurants. 

“It used to be enough to spend a couple weeks in Italy in July,” observes Coco, a 34-year-old retired gallery founder who is on the board of several art-related non-profits that she instructed her unpaid interns to start. “But now it gets so hot in Europe in July that everyone is going in June and even like, May.” Coco has several weddings and dinner parties in various coastal destinations in Europe in June, but she has not yet RSVP’d nor has she booked any travel. “I know I’m going to go, but I’ve just been too busy to look at the dates or book anything,” she says, absently picking some kind of beige matter from the left eye of her toy goldendoodle. Macron at one point asserts in his speech that Europe is “too slow and lacks ambition,” referring directly to Coco’s ambivalent European travel plans. 

Uncertainty permeates the vibe in Europe right now, not because of a military threat posed by a giant, angry country with cocked nukes driven by a weak-minded Cold War relic, but because every Millennial in New York, Miami and Los Angeles has expressed their intention to occupy Europe without declaring the targets. 

“Is very stressful,” says Aldo Melpignano, the proprietor of Borgo Egnazia, a trendy boutique hotel in Puglia that for Europeans costs €120 a night and charges 30something Americans visiting from coastal zipcodes $970. “I see the hashtags on the Instagram, like, I’m coming for your @borgoegnazia,” he says. “Va bene, Allison, when you gonna come for us, and are you gonna come with that stupid capello?” says Aldo while making a pinched-fingers emoji with one hand and pointing to his head with the other. Hotel, coffee shop, organic market, and narcotics purveyors all over Italy, France, Spain, and Portugal have echoed this desire for more resolute planning and fewer hats from the demographic that funds the less productive but more desirable EU countries.  

"We must produce more, we must produce faster, and we must produce as Europeans," Macron said, a rallying cry to European DJs to sample only vocals that were recorded in native European languages.  

“Europe must show that it is never a vassal of the United States and that it also knows how to talk to all the other regions of the world," Macron said, refuting the irrefutable fact that Europe has become a summer camp for unproductive younger Americans and suggesting that they be immediately deported to Bodrum or Izmir upon landing at CDG, MXP, and LIS. 

“This is a betrayal of our values that ultimately leads us to dependency on other counties,” Macron said, making an observation about Europe’s frustration with having to work between May and August in order to show American Millennials how to correctly tap their credit card on puzzling European payment terminals.

“Europe must become capable of defending its interests, with its allies by our side whenever they are willing, and alone if necessary,” said Macron, in defense of French baristas who do not like working with oat milk. Taking a hands-on approach to ensuring the EU’s “ability to ensure our security” Macron and his wife will begin their Summer at a wedding in the Aeolian Islands in early June, float around Sicily or Puglia the following week, head to Bonjuk Bay for an appearance of prominent LA-based DJ, RICHE, and then couch-surf in Santa Gertrudis de Fruitera the rest of the summer.

About citizenship post what if they don't know they're being used

How about they get married and after darling get citizenship she wants to divorce them?

I’ll be frank right now, dear reader: YOU AIN’T getting that divorce. 

But let’s break down how that happens. (Also probably not my best work but here we go. I didn’t want this sitting in my ask box forever in purgatory) 

America 

You’re going to have to be a stellar actor/actress because that's a facade that will be difficult to maintain if you don’t love him. He does demand a lot of affection from you & just because he’s bubbly most of the time does not mean he lacks a bullshit detector. 

Alfred will want to know what's up & why you’re being so cold towards him. If you’re unable to dispel his doubts, he’ll know that divorce is a possible outcome. Before you can even get to that, he’s going to play mind with you. He will be hot & cold. Alfred will say offhanded and unprompted things like: 

“You know it's a shame that this one married partner here wasn’t able to naturalize since they divorced so soon… & it was later found out the marriage was fraudulent.” A playful hand wandered up your arm as he got close to your ear and said: 

“Then they were arrested and deported.” 

That sent fire to your ears. Fear rushes into your heart, making it run at high speed. An ice bucket splashed over your head, sending a shockwave down your spine. 

‘Deported?’ Not after all of your hard work….effort…and being able to manage a man while fun to be around; you knew he had a terrifying underneath even though he doesn’t usually let it show. 

“Living with you is like a daydream Y/N. I never want it to end.” As he places pointed kisses at your cheek. 

He’s toying with you. Making sure you stay on edge. 

If you do somehow manage to fool him long enough to get divorce papers served to him….OOOOOHHHH boy, there will be hell to pay. You’re going to be hunted down. Your lawyer who assisted you will be given an undisclosed sum to throw your case out & forget they ever met you. 

England 

When the papers have been served Arthur’s blood will be boiling like the water he uses to make his tea. 

There are many factors to the visas but I’ll stick with the two that are the most important. 

The Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) & the Spouse Visa. 

You have to obtain the Spouse Visa first before you can obtain the (ILR) status. 

Your ability to stay will be dependent on your marriage, and he will make sure that you don’t even know what your (ILR) status is. Arthur has always liked having the upper hand. He’ll maintain it by monitoring you constantly. 

There will be trackers in your car, and he will keep close eyes on your browsing history, credit/debit card transactions, etc. He may even lightly interrogate you over afternoon tea if he feels you are beginning to stray away from him. Since you’re in a different country from all of your close bonds (friends, family, co-workers, etc.), isolation is relatively easy. He’s also going to demand that you spend more time with him so that the relationship can work. Depleting most if not all social time with others you have in England. You won’t have time to build bonds to talk to others and maybe catch red flags that would go unnoticed. 

You will be blamed for any of the issues you have within your marriage or your feelings will be undermined. 

“Y/N darling! You’re overreacting! It’s just a cat! We can always get another! You smothered it too much that’s why it’s run off!” He’ll kiss your forehead in an attempt to comfort you and then continue to tell you why you’re weak and failing to uphold your part in the marriage. Of course, he’s not going to take responsibility for the short comings in the relationship; that’s what he’s married you for. 

And if you try to run away: Congrats his secret agents will be all over you within mere hours. It won’t be long till you’re brought back to him. Then it will be a long time before you see the light of day ever again. 

France

He’d done all that he could so that getting a “visa de long sejour valant titre de sejour” (VLS-TS) was seamless & easy for you. Francis also ensured that you were aware of the renewal dates, had the money you needed, insurance, and whatever demands the French government had in order for you to stay in his country, he ensured you could meet them exceptionally. So when he receives divorce papers on his desk…tears, apologies, fancy dinners,  flowers, and make-up sex will be among his first line of defense to make you stay.

Francis will do anything for you to reconsider your decision to divorce. 

He will interrogate you on what he’s not doing right. 

Was their a habit that he had that displeased you? He can change! 

Is it his performance in bed? He can do better! He can learn! 

Not enough kisses to the neck and cheeks? He can do more!

What is it? He NEEDS to know! 

Francis will corner you in the kitchen as you’re making your morning coffee. 

“Y/N please….” He approaches you from behind and brings you into a hug. “What has made you this way? What did I do? Was it something I said?” 

Francis is going to want to get to the bottom of what made you want the divorce. He will force you into couples therapy. Yes, it will be a therapist who has some unscrupulous morals. They’ll tell you why you should stay together and how the two of you are “Perfect” and “Soul Mates”. The therapist will gloss over any complaints you may have during the session & that you be okay with Francis’ Yandere tendencies. 

Germany 

12-Weeks, like all the others, is how long it will take to obtain your visa. You’d been fully integrated into his structured lifestyle that he’s slightly adjusted to accommodate you. Normally, he’s up at 5 am to go for his early morning jog to 6 am. He will help you make coffee just so you’d be able to get more accustomed to being up so early. 

Since you must function within his rigid structure, you’ll have to be sneaky in various ways. 

Emotionally, it's the delicate way you treat him, take care of him, make promises you keep or don’t keep, and hug and kiss him that matters. If subtle changes compound over time, he will inquire about them at some point if he feels that the changes have become too great. He will interrogate you about it while you’re vulnerable, like in his lap, and he has a death grip on your thighs. 

Physically, I know I mentioned hugging and kissing already, but how intentional, how often, and how much passion there is? He will notice the lack when it comes to you not feeling it in bed. He will pause in whatever the two of you are doing & will ask “What’s wrong Y/N?” while his stony cold blues will pierce your eyes. If you don’t have a satisfactory answer you will be handcuffed to the bed as he will search the room for evidence of infidelity & divorce papers.

Future Plans

This is mostly me thinking aloud (or rather, writing shit down), so feel free to ignore (it's gonna get long).

Basically, I'm trying to decide what to do in regards to staying in Japan/moving on.

I love living here. I love my job. After a year of doing it, I've learned from my mistakes and I feel like I've become a much better teacher. With the new school year I've implemented some changes in my approach that I know are going to have positive outcomes, and I want to see it through. I want to keep working with these kids, I want to help them grow.

But... I have reasons for wanting to go back to the UK (never thought I'd say that):

Top of the list is my nan having quite severe dementia. That in itself doesn't affect me greatly as I've not seen her for years and was never close to her. However, I know my mum is struggling to look after her. She frequently drives 3 hours to see her, then spends a week caring for her, and while she tries to put a humorous spin on the stories she tells me I can tell it's hard for her. I want to be there for her, maybe even go with her to help look after my nan just to take the burden off of her.

Related to that... I worry that my mum will develop dementia later on and I'll regret not spending the years we could've had together with her. She's the only family member I'm close to really and honestly, I miss her.

Also family-related... I'm missing my niece growing up. I'm not a part of her life at all and that makes me sad.

I'm still considering studying Education Psychology in the city where my brother lives. It would be expensive and I'd need to rely on my dad's money, which I don't really want to do, but it would set me up nicely to either go into research or then apply to do a teaching Masters degree in Norway (plus I'd get to actually be a part of my niece's life for a bit).

I miss having a fucking oven oh my god I want to bake so fucking badly you have no idea.

At the moment I intend to see my contract out for at least the rest of this year. After that, I'm not 100%. I might continue another year and stay until my visa expires (depends on the situation with my nan I guess).

Another plan would be:

Go back to the UK either when my contract reaches its end at the end of January or when my visa expires at the start of January

Come March, apply to university in Norway

Move to Norway the following summer if I get accepted

I'm also considering transfering away from Yamagata if I decide to stay on for a third year, but I'm in two minds. As mentioned above, I want to continue working with these kids and see through what I've started. I also love Yamagata and my team are great and I'm finally making friends! But I also want to explore more of Japan. It's so expensive to travel here from Europe and I doubt I'd be coming back anytime soon, but it's difficult to get to different areas of Japan from Yamagata. If I were in, say, Osaka, it would be much easier for me to go to new places.

Other options:

Just stay in Yamagata and get my visa renewed and settle down properly

Go do TEFL in a different country that's slightly closer to home (maybe Spain or France)

So yeah, those are some thoughts I'm having. I don't really know what to do at the moment and most people just politely listen and then say "well, it's down to you really" and that doesn't help lmao. Thankfully I've got quite a while to decide anyway.

They must have a valid passport, provide proof of travel insurance, demonstrate sufficient financial means to cover their stay, and show evidence of travel arrangements. Applicants must also demonstrate the purpose of their visit, such as tourism, business, or family reunification. Additionally, they should not have a history of immigration violations or criminal activities. Which Schengen Visa Is Hardest? The difficulty of obtaining a Schengen visa can vary based on individual circumstances and the specific country of application. However, generally speaking, visas from countries with stringent entry requirements or those known for high visa refusal rates might be considered more challenging to obtain. Countries such as Germany and France, due to their popularity and high application volumes, may have more rigorous scrutiny processes compared to others. What Is the Minimum Bank Balance for a Schengen Visa? There is no fixed minimum bank balance requirement for a Schengen visa, as the necessary amount can vary depending on the country of application and the applicant's planned length of stay. Generally, applicants should demonstrate sufficient funds to cover their travel and accommodation expenses during their stay. As a guideline, having a balance that covers at least €50 to €100 per day of the stay is often recommended, but exact requirements should be verified with the specific embassy or consulate.

• Fares: Generally in the range of £39-£150 depending upon how long beforehand you book and the class of travel.

Even though the British Pound (GBP) is the accepted UK currency, France uses Euros (€). Here's what you want to know about Paris currency and payments:

a. Currency Exchange

Plan to exchange a small quantity of GBP for Euros when you get off the plane. It is also possible to change money at airports but usually charged at a fee.

b. Using Cards

Most businesses in Paris should be able to accept at least the major credit and debit cards, including Visa and Mastercard. Contactless payments are widely accepted and would make it very easy for UK tourists to buy things rather than carry large amounts of cash.

c. Budget

Paris tends to be a bit pricey, especially in touristic areas. Budgeting for meals, transportation, and attractions is essential. An average meal in a mid-range restaurant may cost as much as €15-€30.

6. Language and Communication

While most people in Paris can speak English, it is always a good idea to know some of the basic French phrases to make your trip go much smoother. Such phrases as "Bonjour" (Hello), "Merci" (Thank you), and "Parlez-vous anglais?" (Do you speak English?) can really go a long way in furthering goodwill.

7. Paris Transport: Navigating the City

Getting around once you're in the city is relatively easy. Paris has an enormous public transport network. Among these are the metro and buses as well as taxis.

a. The Paris Metro

The Paris Metro is one of the most efficient and easiest ways to get around the city. It has 16 lines that cover the entire city; it's easy to get to major tourist attractions like Eiffel Tower, Louvre, and Notre-Dame.

• Metro Tickets: A ticket ranges from about €1.90. Mobilis is the day pass and costs between €7-€17 depending on the zone.

b. Taxis and Ride-Sharing

Taxis are available, but taxis for public transport are pretty expensive. Ride-sharing, such as Uber, is popular and relatively cheap.

8. Tips Before the Journey to Finally Arrive in Paris from the UK

a. Be Prepared for Tourist Hotspots

Some of the world's most famous sights can be found in Paris. Go ahead and reserve a visit to the Eiffel Tower or Louvre Museum so that you do not have to stand in serpentine queues for a long time.

b. Be Safe

Paris is regarded as a safe city. However, like in any other tourist destination, keep your wits about you and do not let loose especially near the metro stations as well as the tourist attractions.

c. Locals and Etiquette

Parisiens are proud about their culture and language. Local custom: respect local customs, try to speak French-just a few words can make you smile.

Let's just say anything you need to know concerning visas and passports, transport, and local tips can be found in this guide.

FacebookTwitterEmailLinkedInShare

Many people have the goal of studying abroad because it provides wonderful chances for both academic and personal development. As someone who wants to study abroad, you have to be aware of the numerous requirements and paperwork involved with relocating for higher education.

The process of applying for a university or a visa is complex and time-consuming. However, this is more than just completing various types of paperwork. In many of the countries where students want to study or apply for visas, they need to have proper knowledge about the finances that they need to have a positive impact on their visa outcomes. This demonstrates that the student has sufficient funds to cover both their tuition fee and living expenses.

Valid Approaches for Demonstrating Necessary Funds

When requesting a visa, international students can demonstrate their financial stability in a number of ways. Among these are the following options:

Bank Statements: If you choose to self-fund, you may submit bank statements attesting to the existence of enough money in your savings account. It’s also crucial to remember that this money must be easily accessible and unrestricted by investments or other assets, in accordance with the Visa requirements of the majority of study destinations.

Scholarships: Proof of scholarships or grants from governmental agencies, nonprofits, or educational institutions is also accepted. Immigration authorities will cross-verify your scholarship letter because they occasionally pay for living expenses and tuition fees.

Sponsorship: In order to contribute the money needed for your student visa, parents or legal guardians may serve as official sponsors. They will need to present their bank statements, which acts as a proof that they can afford the living expenses and course fees.

Education Loans: Visa officers will accept confirmation from accredited financial institutions when they give assurance that education loan has been approved. However, the requirements for secured and unsecured loans vary depending on the study location. Therefore, make sure the loan terms match where you want to study.

Understanding MiM Fees: What You Need to Know

A Master in Management (MiM) degree is a great option for students and young professionals looking to grow their careers in business and management. Unlike an MBA, which often requires several years of work experience, the MiM is designed for recent graduates or those with only a few years of experience.

But, one of the biggest concerns for students considering a MiM program is cost. In this post, we'll explore MiM fees and other related expenses, giving you a clear idea of what to expect and how to manage these costs.

Tuition MiM Fees Programs

Tuition fees make up the largest part of the cost for a MiM program. These fees can vary depending on the university and country where you choose to study. On average, MiM fees range from €10,000 to €50,000 per year.

Here’s a look at the tuition MiM fees for some top MiM programs:

London Business School (UK): Around €42,000

HEC Paris (France): About €44,000

IE Business School (Spain): Roughly €37,000

ESCP Europe (Multi-Campus): Between €20,000 and €40,000, depending on the campus

University of St. Gallen (Switzerland): Approximately €9,000

While these numbers might seem high, remember that top schools often offer great job opportunities after graduation, making the investment worth it.

Other Costs to Consider

Besides tuition, there are other costs to think about when planning for your MiM program. These additional expenses include living costs, accommodation, textbooks, travel, and insurance. Let’s break these down:

1. Living Expenses

Living costs depend on the city you study in. For instance, studying in big cities like London, Paris, or New York will cost more than in smaller cities. On average, students should expect to spend around €10,000 to €20,000 per year on living expenses, which include rent, food, transportation, and entertainment.

2. Accommodation

Housing costs vary widely depending on the location. In cities like London and Paris, rent can range from €800 to €1,500 per month. Smaller towns might offer accommodation for €400 to €800 per month.

3. Textbooks and Study Materials

The cost of textbooks and other materials can add up to €500 to €1,000 per year, depending on the program.

4. Visa and Health Insurance

For international students, visa and insurance costs are essential. Visa fees can be around €50 to €500, while health insurance can cost between €200 to €1,000 per year.

5. Travel Expenses

Some MiM programs offer international study trips or multi-campus experiences, which can add to your travel expenses. Be prepared to spend between €500 and €5,000 during the program.

Scholarships and Financial Aid

Many universities offer scholarships and financial aid to help cover the high MiM fees. Scholarships can significantly reduce tuition costs, making the program more affordable. Here are some types of scholarships you can explore:

Merit-Based Scholarships: Awarded to students with excellent academic records.

Need-Based Scholarships: For students who need financial help.

Diversity Scholarships: Some universities offer scholarships to students from underrepresented countries or backgrounds.

You may also find work-study options or graduate assistantship programs at some universities. These opportunities allow you to work part-time during your studies and earn money to offset some of your costs.

Is the Cost of a MiM Worth It?

The total cost of a MiM, including MiM fees for tuition and other expenses, can seem high, but many students find the investment worthwhile. The MiM program can open doors to exciting career opportunities, boost your earning potential, and give you access to a valuable network of professionals.

With the right financial planning, such as applying for scholarships, exploring financial aid, or securing a student loan, you can make the program more affordable. Plus, with the higher salaries you can earn after graduation investing in a MiM degree is a smart choice for many young professionals.

Conclusion

In conclusion, MiM fees may seem expensive, but the benefits often outweigh the costs. The MiM degree offers strong career prospects, leadership opportunities, and a valuable global network. By understanding the various costs involved and taking advantage of financial aid, loans, or scholarships, you can successfully manage the financial side of your MiM journey.

Whether you’re just starting to explore MiM programs or you're ready to apply, keep these costs in mind and plan. With the right preparation, you can make the most of your MiM experience and set yourself up for a bright future.
