This IT Guy is amazing, he even brought you his laptop on Saturday
I know right! Truly above and beyond
I can’t believe I’ve been watching you since 2018, Paige! Huge congrats on hitting 200k. And random tip about measuring rice - use a cup as a reference!
Paige you are really an inspiring person. You work so hard, you are smart and thrifty/smart with your money…and see the importance of balance in your life (obviously no balance during exam season.. but you still get out for a walk, skate, ice cream…). Best of luck but you really don’t need it… you will be a success whatever you do!
Ahh that is very kind of you to say
In my company's appraisal system, the IT person's support counts towards their "exceeds expectations" behaviour. Hopefully their line manager gets to find out about it.
Been watching you since the very beginning when you told us your a level results story! I’ve just finished the first year of my law degree and your videos have been a massive inspiration to me to push myself academically! We’re all rooting for you Paige, no doubt about that 🩵
Don't worry Paige and definitely don't panic.😞 I once had heat stroke....during my board exams. Luckily, there was a short gap.... in between papers. Heavy antibiotics and just pushing through, did the job.Managed to pass all my papers! 😅
Sending you love and good wishes...❤
Paige, it always sucks when your computer breaks down a few days before an exam. You were lucky that the IT guy was able to fix the problem. I am sure that you will do well in your exams.
Paige you are such a wonderful person! Love these vlogs and love you!!!
Good luck Paige. You've got this!!❤
Hii Paige. The month of May was also my exam season. There was a blackout on the day before my final exam so I know how it feels.
Good luck Paige! I have so much sympathy - have been sitting GDL and Solicitor qualification exams for the past 4 years so totally understand the feeling of wanting to be done and actually feel able to just live life! Hope everything went well 😊
Becoming a professional takes time and effort. You have your whole life ahead of you and so it is OK to work hard now. You have made your future quite secure by deciding to become an Actuary. There are many people who are forced to change their careers when they are in their 30s and 40s because they chose the wrong profession when they were young. I know someone who became a doctor after completing PhD and 2 years of post-doctorate because there are not too many job opportunities for scientists. I also know someone who had to change to Project Management jobs in a different field after getting a PhD from Cambridge in Material Science because of lack of job opportunities. IT guys have to constantly worry about being made redundant as technology changes fast and organizations prefer people with work experience in the specific technology. Good luck with your exams!
On a separate note, love your jumper!
Girl, you’ve got this! I know you did great. Whatever happens it happened for a reason but I have high hopes for you! Hugs!
Congrats on 200k subscribers!! =]
The stress crying over the last straw was extremely relatable ❤😢
I had a similar problem at my previous job. 😢 My Lenovo notebook crashed after a video call with GM. Just refused to start working with no signs of any activity. The IT department said that there was no chance for it to be repaired. So, I got a new one but it took few weeks.
Congrats on 200k!!!
So yeah, the thinkpad did exactly that to me in 2019, never using windows ever again 😌
Thank you Paige, for inspiring me to work on a Sunday. Feel great now and think I might also buy myself a lovely bunch of flowers :o)
You got this! ❤
Good luck! I'm changing work on monday to a consultancy, feeling quite nervous
wow saw your vids after ages for some reason it’s lovely how it’s still somehow sameeee
watching you since 2020 💗💗💗💗
Encanto song is so cute!!!! And good luck to you❤
Paige... All the best for the coming exams. You are very diligent in preparation. As for stress... we have all been there done that and.... survived. (You will Also) :o)
I am currently studying to sit the California Bar Exam in July. It will also be my last ever exam! I'm confident that we will both pass!!
All the best. Sending good vibes from Singapore.
ice skate's 🥰 ...paige what will you do if the physical item's climb up to approx. 35°C till the afternoon and evening ? In-Line Skate's with hard outdoor roll's , can not wait to see you ( london/wellington arch is rough terrain be sure wheels & ball-bearings are the best ) 💐💐💐💐💐💐
which radius do you use for this type of blades/ice skates ? 8° zero minute zero seconds lower to 10 degree zero min. zero sec. was what i done each month with the blades ➡️ fast , easy to turn
you’re motivating me to go study in a coffee shop
Coffee shop vibes >>>
My laptop crashed 1 hour before a deadline of project that worth 25% of the semester work it was a nightmare!
Tip on your bike helmet, ithe chin strap needs to be tighter so the helmet won’t fall off.
New vlog please
Very unlucky…thnikpads never go wrong.
Note to self: never prepare for actuarial exam on windows laptop ✅
ı wonder if you are able to use chatGbt type of AI with your exams😅
Its almost useless with actuarial exams
@@Theassociate06 how, why? you can ask anything to it
@@gulsekaykc5770 Actuaries are known for risk management😅The Society has taken enough measure to minimise that risk
You could probably make a Udemy course for the topics you’re studying and I bet it would be successful. Assuming your notes are organized. There are plenty of less than great courses there which are making money. You can add good material.
I never understood why people only get 1 laptop, I always tell them if they’re going to get a laptop you have to buy 2 because what if it breaks 3 days before an exam? Smh
Jesus loves you ❤️ Please repent and turn to Him and receive Salvation before it is too late. The end times written about in the Bible are already happening in the world. Jesus is the son of God and He died for our sins on the cross and God raised Him from the dead on the third day. Jesus is waiting for you with open arms but time is running out. Please repent and turn to Him before it is too late. Accept Jesus into your heart and invite Him to be Lord and Saviour of your life and confess and believe that Jesus is Lord, that He died for your sins on the cross and that God raised Him from the dead. Confess that you are a sinner in need of God's Grace and ask God to forgive you for all your sins through Jesus.
Jesus loves you. Nothing can compare to how He loves you. When He hung on that cross, He thought of you. As they tore open His back, He thought of your prayer time with Him. As the thorns dug into His head, He thought of you spending time reading the Bible. As the spears went into His side, He imagined embracing you in heaven. Please repent and turn to Jesus now before it is too late. He longs to be with you but time is running out.
shushhh
Was Jeebus an Actuary?
@@nicolad8822 Now that would be something interesting to see
Ouch! Great ad for ThinkPad (JinxPad), not. Exam hell meets Murphy's law, I'm afraid. [Useless advice follows] Keep your head together and get on with it.
New vlog please
