Could you help me ?

Dear friends,

My name is Fauzan, and I'm a blogger from Indonesia. I'm writing this post because I'm looking for people from Germany or Finland (or anyone else) who might be able to help me with my study abroad plans.

My Plans:

• I want to study abroad next year
• My main preference is the University of Helsinki in Finland
• Alternatively, I'm also considering studying in Germany
• I'm currently learning Finnish to prepare myself

Why Finland?

• The University of Helsinki offers tuition-free education
• This is a huge opportunity for me, as education in Indonesia is very expensive
• I'm really passionate about studying there

The Challenge: The main challenge I face is that while tuition might be free, my financial situation isn't sufficient to cover living expenses in Finland.

What I'm Looking For:

• Someone who could provide accommodation during my studies
• This would be until I can find a job or complete my degree
• I'm open to any form of housing support that could help make this dream possible

If you can help or have any suggestions, please leave a comment below. Thank you for your consideration!

How to Date Someone "Out of Your League": A Realistic Guide

Understanding Your Motivation

Before pursuing someone you consider "out of your league," reflect on your true intentions. Are you attracted to their popularity, or do you genuinely appreciate who they are as a person? Genuine interest in someone's character creates a stronger foundation than surface-level attraction.

Building Natural Connections

Instead of forcing interactions, create organic opportunities to connect:

• Join group activities or projects where you can interact naturally
• Engage in genuine conversations about shared interests
• Build positive relationships with their friend group
• Pay attention to mutual chemistry - if conversations feel forced, you might need to reassess

Developing Authentic Confidence

True confidence comes from self-acceptance, not pretense:

• Maintain good posture and positive body language
• Make appropriate eye contact during conversations
• Walk with purpose and energy
• Focus on your positive qualities while working on self-improvement
• Remember: confidence is different from arrogance

Being Your Best Self

Present your authentic self while being mindful of social awareness:

• Practice good hygiene and maintain a neat appearance
• Show courtesy and respect in your interactions
• Stay true to your personality while being considerate of others
• Focus on personal growth while remaining genuine

Showing Genuine Interest

Look beyond surface-level attributes:

• Ask thoughtful questions about their interests and passions
• Show interest in their goals and aspirations
• Listen actively and engage in meaningful conversations
• Appreciate their intelligence, talents, and character
• Build a connection based on mutual respect and understanding

Remember: The concept of someone being "out of your league" is often more about perception than reality. Focus on being your best self and creating genuine connections rather than trying to overcome imagined barriers.
