Meet Me Monday Special Edition: Rebecca Põldma

My name is Rebecca Põldma, I’m the author of many “Meet me Mondays”, the president of the student council in high school and an EBS High School graduate.

  1. How did you end up at EBS High School?

Since the school I went to before and EBS High School were “sister-schools”, I found out about it quite early. I got more and more interested when I got to know some people who were studying in EBS High School at the time and heard about all the good things they told me. I was also very interested in the opportunity of studying in English and travel in Europe.

  1. What do you like the most in Estonia?

I used to think that Estonia was not the place for me, mostly because of its size. I always had an image in my head that I would live in some big city. But ironically now, when I’m older (just a lil’ bit), and travelled more (also just a lil’ bit), I can see that the big city life is just not for me. Basically what I now love about Estonia is the fact that it’s small yet we all have our own space (and every Estonian loves their space).

  1. Do you have any tips for the future Ebster students?

For High School students: just attend your classes and work a bit harder than you initially intended to. In the end it will be worth it.

As much as I have seen from the university students, it would be useful to attend as many student activities as you can.

  1. What do you do during your free time?

I really enjoy lunching-brunching-dining with my close ones. I’m also doing some freelance work as a graphic designer and I really love to read, go to the cinema, visit museums and go shopping.

  1. What was your childhood dream?

I had so many – to become a ballerina, a tennis player, a horseback rider etc… You know, the classic ones that every little girl has.


  1. If you could leave Estonia for a week and go wherever you want, where would you go and why?

At the moment – Prague. I went there this spring with my classmates and since we only stayed for a few days, I would really love to go back. The city just was the place where I’d like to spend some more time, at least a week.

 

  1. What is the craziest thing you ever did?

Probably visiting the criminal wings of the mental asylums on the “student-shadow days”.

  1. Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

In my “little-perfect-world” I would have finished university, have kids and a family.

  1. Do you have any words to live by?

Be soft, kind, loving. But also take nobody’s BS.
