  • HEY FAM! I'm back with a college advice type video. Joyce and I talk about things we wish we knew before college/things we didn't expect/things we learned in our first semester! I might do a Q&A soon, so leave questions below about Brown/college life and academics/etc.
    Sorry about the loud plane noises in the background! I'm apparently "the only youtuber that films outdoors" according to Joyce !

    This has been great! All of your videos about college! Really appreciate people who do this! Thank you. And really can't stress the stigma of having to party if that's not your personality or whatever you don't have to. You will meet other people who share your views or interests other than lets party. Though like that said if that is what you want to do sure but specifically i'm talking to those who aren't interested in that scene.

    Ooo pro tip: don't make super-close friends with the first people you meet or make friends with the people that wanna be best friends right away. Those relationships lead to super bad drama and that's not good.

      @SweetasSugar42 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I’m not in Brown, but mini fridges are in every college everywhere! Seriously, you don’t want your food to be stolen if you’re in a dorm w a kitchen.
