fall evening + night routine || studying, work, errands, cleaning
Hello everyone and happy mid-November!! It's crazy that I've been in Boston for almost half a year now - I really love this city and my routines that I've fallen into here. Law school is so much work but so rewarding and I hope you enjoy this look at how I spend my evenings and nights as a student here :)
about me 🌷
I’m Makayla! I’m twenty-two years old and a first-year law student at Boston University Law interested in international environmental law. I recently completed a degree at the University of Chicago, and I also like to read and cook in my free time. I grew up in Maine and studying has always been one of my favorite pastimes, so that’s why you’ll find a whole bunch of university vlogs, study motivation, book recommendations, and academic tips on my channel. You’re in good company if you’re into these things, so subscribe for more productivity content!

    Makayla, I'm going to be really honest. Truth is, I've been faithfully and patiently waiting for a budget for college students years ago before you entered University of Chicago and you said you will. You graduated and I asked again and you told me until you live alone, so I waited some more. The third time I asked and no reply. I'm so disappointed because you led me along for years for nothing. That is so unjust so I unsubscribed. Be honest to your current subscribers and if you don't want to make a certain requested video, then say so or don't answer. 👋🏼

I really did like your idea so I ended up uploading a budgeting video last year if this helps at all: th-cam.com/video/u7QIJcI1bC0/w-d-xo.html Again, I'm really sorry though about making you feel unheard!!

    So, now, after your 'summer job' you feel qualified to pass on your 'vast' experience? As a reader, and the reason writers exist..i am disearened that folks like you are in control of anything..let alone making any decisions on people's applications for representation. I wonder how many brilliant young writers have been rejected (and dicouranged) by agents employing holiday help to filter query letters. I am persuade that it was many of your kind who rejected Stephen King's first novel Carrie, and JK Rowling(s Harry Potter ! I am fully aware that not every novel is a winner, and am mindeful of the hundreds of enquiries agents must get each day, but debutant writers deserve more than 'wet behind the ears' inexperienced temporary employee judging their work. As a reader, I am sad that many new novelists who have slogged their way to produce their work, wil be deprived of a professional judgement and we, the readers are at the mercy of amateurs such as yourself.. who may deprive us of a brilliant novel. YOU do NOT receive any query letters!! The agent received the letters from young, hopeful writers who thought their letters would be read by the agent , or at leat a mature assocate who has been in the job for some time; . There you have it! So take care folks, your work is now being judged by some kid with a You Tube channel and an uncontrolable affectation to keep touching her hair whilst sitting in her bedroom. There are lots of published authors out there on You Tube who will steer you in the right direction and have years of wisdom to give you.from their own experiences... I wish you all the luck in the world and look forward to reading your first novel.

    I feel like I’m surrounding myself with people who don’t value who i am. I have friends in my Native American class, I met multiple people in my COMLIT class; however, I don’t have a stable friend group. I don’t have a friend group that I go out to dinner, hang out with, and do study groups, it really sucks. I haven’t been to a party yet because I’m focusing on my studies. I feel like when I socialize, it’s just over or sometimes I lag on the person. It sucks, but I really want a stable friend group.

The rowdy bar was probably due to a college football game (Harvard, BU, BC) if on a Saturday or a pro game (the Patriots) if on a Sunday! The games always make people crazy, especially if they are watching together in a bar! In any case, I think you may need a football jersey to complete your wardrobe for going out during the weekend games 🏈😀!

      Actually, we always learn more slowly with a teacher but more steadily. Teacher teaches us to play in a scientific way. For self-taught learner, they tend to be impatient and not dont wait to correct all the faults before learning new technique. That's why when they do something wrong, it's hard (or even impossible) to correct later.
