Ruby’s videos are literally like a warm hug, they’re so comforting and wholesome. Something lost in this day and age especially in the younger generation of youtubers is being proud of who you are and also being good role models to those who watch them
I failed my first year of sixth form because of mental health. I then took a year out to figure myself. At 18, shortly turned 19 years old, I decided to go to college for English language and literature, sociology and law. Through the entire year I struggled with my mental health. From being diagnosed with BPD, to hospital stays, medication, more medication, psychiatrist appointments, panic attacks, moments of pure depression, I genuienly thought I was going to fail. I got my As results today and came out with full marks for Sociology (A), a B for English lit and lang (3 marks off an A so I'm resitting one exam) and a B in Law. When I seriously struggled to cope this year I looked to you and other study channels for motivation and support. You have been a massive inspiration for me! I can not wait for next year. I have hope and determination to do even better. (Aiming for an A*, A*, A.)
Wow! This is AMAZING! Thank you so much for sharing this in the comments section. You are a living&breathing example of the power of hard work, determination and a positive mental attitude. Congratulations on your AS results and best best of luck for your A Levels next year! xx
Congratulations. I’m very happy to hear that you did so well despite your challenges. I’m a bit older, but I too deal with depression, anxiety and have BPD. It does get better. I went through therapy for bpd which I found very helpful. Congratulations once again. ❤️
Here is an advice from me: Try to not bend forward so much when studying/writing.I actually used to study and write this way and I got diagnosed with flat back syndrome and it is soooo painful,I am worried for new school year and how I will cope with the pain. Wish you the best ❤️
If you have a lot of big textbooks, you should consider getting a book cradle. It’ll hold your books at a nice angle so you won’t have to bend forward so much :) and you can find collapsing ones that are quite cheap!
Every semester before uni starts I make a resolution to make use of study spaces & on-campus libraries to get things done & it's honestly really helpful :)
Kinda watched you since 2016-2017 (for motivation as they were my GCSEs years), and now seeing you doing well in Exeter makes me feel slightly emotional. I can see that you’re more mature and confident with yourself, and you’ve grown to be more of yourself rather than Hermione (not that she wasn’t a good inspiration) :) Well done!
I've loved in the Hall of the Mountain King since 1989 when I saw Natalia Laschenova of the Soviet Union perform her Floor Exercise (gymnastics) to that music!
Ruby I’ll be taking my uni entrance exam next year. If I make it through, you’ll be one of the biggest reasons. Whenever I don’t feel like studying, I think what you would do in that situation. You’re my role model!
Hi ruby! I love your videos so much. As an idea which is a bit different, would you consider making a video on how to study and stay motivated with severe visual impairment? I’m almost legally blind and I can’t read any font below a size 36 so a video would be so helpful!! Things like ideas on how to study when you can’t read palm cards, books or textbooks etc.. Love you xxx
ruby just wanna thank u your actually my favorite TH-camr watching your videos gets me in the cosy mood and you being so calm really makes me get to sleep easier and faster thank u
Thank you so much Ruby for another great video! I love the fact that you support Holly Gabrielle's Narna brand. You're both vegans, students, and youtubers, and I think it is really kind from you to tell about another's brand. But, you know, it doesn't surprise me, because you're always so kind, generous and warm.
L. C. I love Holly so so much and I think Narna’s an amazing brand so I love supporting her and it! It’s literally my favourite tee (so cosy and thick!) x
Ruby, can you please make a vídeo explaining how you plan and write you essays?? Because I'm starting college this semester and I'm not very good at it :( Love your videos!! 💖
- Hi! Never thought I’d be first to one of your videos since I’m sending my love from Aus 🇦🇺 - I recently found out the University I’m hoping to go to here does a study tour to Exeter Uni! - Hall of the mountain king is a fabulous piece of classical music, one of my favourites. Grieg is a legend! The dubstep version is hilariously amazing with the beat drop 😂💗 - While on the topic of music, the piano music you used at the beginning was reminiscent of piano music I write myself and listen to one Spotify’s ‘piano in the background’ playlist that I study to 😊 - love you repping Holly’s shirt hahaha
slight warning about reusing a plastic water bottle: after about 8 or 9 uses, you should recycle it or throw it away because the chemicals in the plastic will start to seep into the water
The hard plastic ones are a bit more durable as they have less BPA in them (the chemicals that make plastic thin and flexible and harm your health) but still avoid plastic whenever possible! ♡
I was wondering what your social life is at university, seeing as you have a kitchen and bathroom in your room, you don't have to go to any communal areas and see other people, so how do you make friends and spend time with others? :) X
Exeter uni doesnt have enough accomodation available to fit the influx of new students coming in, relegating them to private housing when people cant afford it. This happens every year ahahaha
@@HollyPrints like where the Depot was being built, but not in enough time, meaning lots of students having less than a month to find new accommodation before the start of this year
Holly Maxwell my daughter joined Exeter this September for her Masters and still not found any flat / house share . Can anyone guide pls ? She tried some websites still nt found
We were just walking through Exeter today! It's such a cute city, with everything you need. ❤️ I hope that one day I can go to your university there aswell, Ruby!
I should get one. As well as your master plan - I stopped studenting 5 years ago yet my admin/career (and of course the self learning that happens!) life is a bit of a mess!
Juuuust me who thinks of Alton Towers when hearing that music?! Personally find it a bit... mad the way we feel we should explain ourselves if we use disposable plastic now 🙁 as if the plastic police are coming to arrest us? Sometimes it is unavoidable, don’t feel like you should explain yourself.
I think it's a good thing, that TH-camrs like Ruby point out that using plastic isn't self-evident for them and that they try to avoid it as often as possible. In this way the topic is always present and other people will pay attention to it.
@@sapiens2299 That's exactly why I included that section! I knew it would have been easier just to have left it out, but I wanted to make a point that, if we did need to get a disposable water bottle for any reason (because sometimes it can't be helped unfortunately), we can make better use of it. (when I say it can't be helped -- I mean, maybe twice a year I'll forget a water bottle, they won't be selling any glass bottles and I will be extremely thirsty!) xx
Ruby Granger no problem! I just felt bad for you feeling like you had to apologise when like you said there are instances where it just can’t be helped. That music is so great it makes me want to go back to Alton towers! 😁🎢🎡
Lovely video! 💕 You really should make some vids on how you make mind maps, how you do your essay plans and all that, it would be great to learn new techniques!
It's a pleasant sensation to feel on your face and it does combat swelling a bit. But other than that it isn't actually doing all that much to me. That being said, I do enjoy using it! It's up to you if you'd be interested in getting such a massager, it's definitely not a must by any means.
@@shalryma thank you! I was interested in buying it but didn't have much faith it will work! I don't get an awful lot of swelling but rather a lot of redness you see and it was suggested to my I bought one but I'm not so sure!
@@Olivia-kd5zt If you decide to get one, do check a TK Maxx if there's one in your area - you can get those rollers there for just a couple of pounds, so you can give it a try without risking too much regret if you don't like it :D
Hello Ruby. A question for a University of Exeter student who plans to go there next year. Is there a kitchenette in each of the student housing rooms, and are the students expected to make their own food?
I graduated from Exeter a couple years ago, awesome uni - good to see you kept this a very accurate portrayal with all the studying! My only qualm with the uni is they kept accepting far too many students for the size of the city / campus / accommodation available.
OMG The Good Place is absolutely incredible!! Which episode are you on? When you finish S2 I highly recommend listening to their podcast, it's so interesting to hear and the writers have so many funny stories
In The Hall Of The Mountain King is also one of my favourite pieces! I also like William Tell (Overture). If you haven't heard it, give it a listen. I bet you'll like it :D
Can you explain a little bit more how you find the subjects for your essay plans ? Do the professors give you guide line ? Do you go about the topic with what you think could be an essay subject ? Thanks !
This is such a lovely video but I’ll be honest I don’t know if I’d cope with how much time you spend alone there 😭 I hope you have lots of friends and they just don’t like appearing in videos ruby
Hi Ruby! I really enjoyed this video! I love The good place too! (and if you are waiting for season 3, NETFLIX said it will be airing in about a month and a half.) Could you please do a video explaining why you started pumpkin productivity etc and showcasing the products. They are quite self-explanatory but I would like to see your interpretation of them!! :)
Congratulations to everyone who has received their results today! We look forward to welcoming all our new students to campus in September :-)
Haha you are so supportive of your students and it's so cool :)
I'm so excited to see all of the new students next month!! :)
I’m coming in a month :)
See you there :)
See you there!

Very true, couldn't have put it better myself. :)
Totally agree.x
I agree!
Got my results today and I’m coming to Exeter!! Very excited ❤️

You could invest in an ergonomic chair (expensive though) or try a back brace that will force you to keep good posture when you're sitting to study
VixenX me too, suffer horrible back agony everyday
i hope the pain doesn't last long! stay strong!! 💗💗
It's been 2 years I hope that your alright.
I always enjoy watching your university vlogs. They're really insightful, and manage to motivate me to be more productive. :)
Every semester before uni starts I make a resolution to make use of study spaces & on-campus libraries to get things done & it's honestly really helpful :)
I love how content/happy you are with just being you

I’ve played the Carmina Burana in an orchestra before and I absolutely love that piece! It’s so beautiful and honestly it means so much to me

i live in exeter and i feel
special that people care about it
your videos mean so much to me. you inspired me to start study again.
What are your thoughts with regard to issues of racism at Exeter?
As a student here in Exeter will say racism is rife, many issues on campus and off as well. I wouldn't recommend the uni tbh.
@@ellisogaard2783 that’s a shame, I was looking to come here :(
Gosh, you're so BEAUTIFUL in EVERY possible way ♡
It's so exciting that you finished your book! I'm proud and impressed!
Celia Hagey thank you! I can’t believe I actually finished it! X
I absolutely love your uni vlogs!! They always motivate me to keep studying and working hard to achieve my goals 📚❤
Exeter University is such a beautiful place. The city is really great too, I lived there for a while. Great vlog Ruby and congrats on your book!
I love your videos, they are so inspiring 😊 Greetings from Germany 💕
I really love your hands ^^
Also your videos are very wholesome and comforting, keep doing this
Hey. Can you give us advices about forgetting or how can we remember the information for a long time . Who agrees !?
Universities in UK look really cool, I'd love to study up there

I live just outside Exeter and I can tell you like 70% of the buildings are student flats
We’re playing Hall of the Mountain King in orchestra at the moment!
dc.superflash your orchestra sounds cool 😉💗
I've played it a few times. Its great fun to play as is the entire suite.
Love this video. Thanks a lot Ruby for sharing with us, how you spend your day
This Paddington-styled cap is really nice 💛 thanks for your video, I really enjoyed it 😍
I love your day in my life episodes! Definitely my favourite type of video :)
The nature near the university is so beautiful
We were just walking through Exeter today! It's such a cute city, with everything you need. ❤️
I hope that one day I can go to your university there aswell, Ruby!
imagine being so iconic that your school sponsors you🖤
torrent raisin I’m literally still kind of in shock 🙌 couldn’t think of a more amazing sponsorship if I tried 🙈xx
@@RubyGranger8 you deserve every opportunity you get ruby, hard work always pays off🖤
I always walk past the university when I’m heading to central I didn’t know how nice it looked inside
Ruby I've been watching your videos lately and I love them. You are such an amazing girl. Please don't bend so much while writing! ❤
I've never been so early. Yoour videos are always very motivational. Thanks!❤️
Can you do a video on how you write your to do lists? Like the things you include on the list and how you go about completing it?
If I can tell I think it's not that hard. Write everything you need to do in that day and start from the hardest ones.
Love your vlog
Thank you for this amazing video, Ruby! ❤️❤️
OMG is that a Narna Tee? That is beautiful
I should get one. As well as your master plan - I stopped studenting 5 years ago yet my admin/career (and of course the self learning that happens!) life is a bit of a mess!

Hello Ruby. A question for a University of Exeter student who plans to go there next year. Is there a kitchenette in each of the student housing rooms, and are the students expected to make their own food?
I'm going to university on this 25/8 (first year). Searching up all my mood to study back after 4 months holiday :)
This makes me feel so calm 😊🙂
Is it just me or does she sound a bit like Emma Watson?
3:30 omg my hair does that thing when im revising but i refuse to tie it up because then it just fustrates me even more lol
Good luck on your conference speech!
I always call that piece the Alton Towers music!
A month’s worth of learning spread out over 3 years and costing in the excess of 50K. What’s not to love?
