I lived by myself during my doctorate program. Best decision I ever made. No amount of money could equal the tranquility and silence I came home too. Just knowing I had that space to come home too after a long day of classes and socializing with my cohort and friends made it worth it
Sometimes I truly feel like we're living the same lives haha! Studying for boards at the moment and will be moving out pretty soon for the exact same reasons! 1. My sanity; 2. Rotations. 😭 Crazy how time flies
I made a similar move too! I saved up so much money living in a two bedroom house with two other girls so basically I was sharing a bedroom. But then Covid hit and then I was stuck and cramped. I fell into a dark mental place that suck all the motivation out of me. And then I moved home and that was good at first but then family stuff took a toll. So now I moved away and I am living alone. It took a huge hit on my finances but I think for what I wanted to achieve, it will prove to have been worth it in the long run.
I always wonder when my parents will understand that mental health should be a priority, not always what’s cheaper or more convenient, but until then I’ll continue to live through you!’
I'm not up to date with your blogs. Because med school is going so busy right now. Its 1:02 am here rn But I feel so relaxed and happy after watching this blog rn. Also its such a nice apartment!!! You are going feel so positive and productive there. U r amazing ! Lots of love from India
I’ve always wanted a desk in my room until I moved out to college and had a desk 3 feet from my bed.. when I rested I felt the pressure to work and when I worked I was tempted to relax.. concluded that it wasn’t an ideal situation for me lol
Man this was confirmation. I started med school this year and I wanted to save a few bucks by getting a roommate but I don’t like the idea of having my desk in the same place I sleep
Hi reachel southard hope that you are fine .congragulation for the new chapter of your life this home is also good but love your old home and I also say good buy to your old home .your are strong and I hope you can handle every problem like changing your home .Get ready to creat tons of memories in your new home
I am SO happy for you Rachel!! I trust this is gonna be such a good phase. I'm finally moving back across the world to continue undergrad in the Fall, and this vlog reminds me of how great it's gonna be.. and how REALISTIC! which is why I love your videos:) love
It really does make a difference to have separate spaces in your home to do different things. I moved recently too and my mental health is better now that I have more room to spread out. I think it was a good decision to move!
I can understand you so much! Studying all day long in the same room where you sleep, really takes its toll on one‘s mental health over a long period of time
Watching this makes me so excited for you, Rachel! I’m going to medical school this fall and seeing your video has me looking forward to this next step ☺️
The new place is so cute esp. with the upgrades with the peel-n-stick! The Herd supports whatever is best for you. It's not talked about enough how much your living situation impacts your mental health and I'm glad you are able to arrange your life to give you the best support. I know I want to live in my own place when I'm in med school if I can afford to (if I end up in NYC I think it's probably unrealistic). When I lived on my own it was what really worked best for me.
I love you so much Every medical student i have seen in youtube looked perfect their life looked perfect with no proplems but when i saw your video i felt like i am talking to someone looks like me I am a medical student but you push me every single I love you so so much Rachel❤️❤️
I hope this move is everything you needed it to be! Having your own space is such a nice (and lonely sometimes) feeling. You did such a great job decorating it. Nice to see Pooh again, he has been MIA. Good luck on your upcoming boards!
Congratulations on the new digs. Make sure to keep checking in with friends.. When I started living alone it was the best thing, but after sometime I really missed the communal aspect of living with others. It sounds like you absolutely made the best decision on balance though :) here is a housewarming plant🪴
When I got my first apartment it definitely took some getting use to. I come from a big family where there's always people there and there's always a lot of noise but you'll get used to it and learn to love it like I did (:
So happy for you! I have been followin you since the beginning! I remember your first videos! First week in medical school! Wow time flies by very quickly... seeing you growing so much (mentally) is really heart warming! I am grateful to have you here on you tube. Thank you for sharing your story and letting us be part of your journey. Lots of love from Austria 🇦🇹
Sometimes I feel bad that I live by myself in pharmacy school bc of how many loans I have to take out for rent but I remind myself that my mental health is so much better when I have my own space, I just try not to look at FAFSA 😅
Hi.If you don't meditate yet,i recommend it to you.Since you address the mental health a lot and it's cool that you do it,meditation(maybe you can do it after stretching or biking) will help you a lot. Lots of love and wishes.♥️
ahhhh rachel that was a big step and im soooo proud of you!!! thank you for showing your life with us, you have no idea how much you motivate me to keep going and not give up on my goals!!!
I really love watching your videos and I think your move makes complete sense. it's much better for you to separate your work area from where you relax and sleep. I hope you'll be very happy there. 🙂
I think you made the best choice for yourself and that’s the most important thing 🤍 I know I felt so stuck before in my old studio apartment when I was in grad school and you feel like you’re in Groundhog Day every single day 🙃 it would’ve been nice to not have my desk and bed in the same room - the naps are too tempting! Your apartment looks really cute and I’m excited you have a fresh new space to feel better in 🤗
Currently in a studio and it really sucks, especially w/ Zoom classes. I’m broke though so no moving out for me 😔 Plus my neighbor is weird AF and smokes right outside my door every day so I can never open my window for some fresh air ☹️
Congrats on a new house!!! Could you do a video about budgeting in med school and how the heck you pay for things without a job?! Haha my husband and I are preparing for me to apply this cycle and hopefully start next year and are wondering how we will make it work on just his income. I feel like nobody ever talks about budgeting and expenses so it would be helpful!!!!
Rachel, the box cutting knife usually has breakable bits that you can break off and then you have a sharp blade. I'm happy to see you're taking some space for yourself! It sucks to only study in the same room, and I sometimes do anki traversing the apartment to help me think (and a change of scenery is nice once in a while).
you are such an inspiration! congrats on making the decision that was best for your mental health because that is so important. best of luck to you and enjoy the new space :)
the amount of happiness i have for you after this video is unreal!! this is a BIG DEAL !! you worked for all of this and you deserve it!! enjoy the space to yourself, i am so happy for you and this next step in your life. love you rachel
Good for you, Rachel! I made a move in the middle of school from basement apartment with barely any windows (snow would always bury them too!) to the top floor with huge windows. Sunlight is so important especially in the wintertime! Take care and stay well! Peel-n-stick!
Congratulations Rachel! I think you made the right decision with moving for boards and most importantly your MENTAL HEALTH!! Also thanks for the flooring tips, definitely going to do that to my tiles
Do you have any tips for apartment hunting?? Just got accepted to med school (yay! ❤️) and currently trying to find a place to live. Thank you Rachel!!
So glad for you Rachel❤️I hope you have such a wonderful time in your new home❤️ Also, we need more study with me videos please🙏🏼🙏🏼you really help us keep motivated when studying and more videos on how you use anki🧠📓📝 Lots of love and best wishes!!!!
I totally fell ya: I’m working, studying and sleeping in the same room in a basement, I don’t see light for day . It is so hard to separate all of that and I’m having migrates every day about getting late to work, forgetting an assignment ... I can’t sleep well and I’m considering to move to. It doesn’t matter how much money but I’m getting crazy
I know you mentioned in another video last year about merch, but I’m dying to know when we can officially buy merch LOL 😝 P.s. I’m not a med student but I gain so much confidence from your videos and inspire me to finish my LMFT Program !!!
Honestly i had a very rough week, been feeling down and it's very stressful living far from those we love in this pandemic period. I applied for a job at good pay and experience place and today i had to let it down due to a family emergency. But your video just made me so motivated and to continue to work and one day hopefully I can be as strong as you Rachel! Love you lots!
Those peel and stick tiles are AMAZING. I'm apartment hunting in an area that has a lot of old, historical places, which is nice but they like all need updates. Those tiles are going to be a game changer for me!!
wow Rachel..i really love the way you keep yourself motivated and push yourself to try something new always. Really happy to see you moving to a new space, managing time and keeping the good mental health in mind I truly get inspire from all of that. wish you luck and lots of success!! keep posting and sharing videos and thoughts it really helps me boost during the hard times :) love from India

Hey Rachel......quick question. What happened to the update on the failing a medschool final video
Thanks for the videos. Love them🥰
We need more PLANTS PLANTS PLANTS and well more PLANTS
@@samanthaainembabazi7889 good question (curious as well)
She kept on saying "we moved" and I was convinced she moved in with Arkadi until she said they were just friends lol
"No one's gonna know"
"They're gonna know"
"No one"
Haha thought of that sound thingy
My mind also does this sometimes
I hear a word and then a song starts playing in my head. _.
I lived by myself during my doctorate program. Best decision I ever made. No amount of money could equal the tranquility and silence I came home too. Just knowing I had that space to come home too after a long day of classes and socializing with my cohort and friends made it worth it
I love the relationship between you and Ark its so genuine and pure
Moving out was an INVESTMENT in yourself, the gain will be priceless!!
Sometimes I truly feel like we're living the same lives haha! Studying for boards at the moment and will be moving out pretty soon for the exact same reasons! 1. My sanity; 2. Rotations. 😭
Crazy how time flies
I totally understand you, doing everything in one closed space is pretty tiring. wish you the best
Where are u from Mo7sen?
@@unkown3136 Saudi Arabia
After the hardest anatomy test I’ve ever taken, can’t wait to unwind and watch this soon 😩
Peel-n-stick babbyyyy
i really drank after this🤩
I made a similar move too! I saved up so much money living in a two bedroom house with two other girls so basically I was sharing a bedroom. But then Covid hit and then I was stuck and cramped.

It took a huge hit on my finances but I think for what I wanted to achieve, it will prove to have been worth it in the long run.
after days of doing nothing I finally got up and studied a bit today thanks to you!
I always wonder when my parents will understand that mental health should be a priority, not always what’s cheaper or more convenient, but until then I’ll continue to live through you!’
I'm not up to date with your blogs. Because med school is going so busy right now. Its 1:02 am here rn But I feel so relaxed and happy after watching this blog rn.

You are going feel so positive and productive there.
U r amazing !
Lots of love from India
Your moms a cutie reminds me of my mom and how she helps me w literally anything to see me less stressed
Everyone deserves an amazing friend like Ark in their lives 💖
I’ve always wanted a desk in my room until I moved out to college and had a desk 3 feet from my bed.. when I rested I felt the pressure to work and when I worked I was tempted to relax.. concluded that it wasn’t an ideal situation for me lol
soo proud of you for getting your own place and putting your mental health first
To anyone reading this: here’s your daily reminder to drink water 💧
Thanks, lol.
Literally picked up my water bottle and had a big glug cos of this - thanks :)
Thanks
I had a 3D energy drink - that counts, right? 😉
😂😂😂
Please Rachel make a vidéo about your plants i mean their names and how u take care of them , advice what type of plants are good AT home
I second this I’m a new plant mom :(
Man this was confirmation. I started med school this year and I wanted to save a few bucks by getting a roommate but I don’t like the idea of having my desk in the same place I sleep
Your herd is always with you at heart, Rachel! Even when you feel lonely. ♥️

I love you so so much Rachel❤️❤️
Makes me so happy to see people putting mental health first:(
I hope this move is everything you needed it to be! Having your own space is such a nice (and lonely sometimes) feeling. You did such a great job decorating it. Nice to see Pooh again, he has been MIA. Good luck on your upcoming boards!
Box cutter blades can be snapped when they get dull so that you can have a sharp blade again! Just push the blade up and bend it sideways!
Thanks for the heads up!

Absolutely.
Hehe Awh thank you ❤️
Rachael: Hope you are doing well in the new place!! Miss seeing you.

omg cant wait! you inspire me rachel to pursue my dream
This video was really uplifting. Happy for you & getting your own place!
Rachel seeing you happy is all that matters.
Hi.If you don't meditate yet,i recommend it to you.Since you address the mental health a lot and it's cool that you do it,meditation(maybe you can do it after stretching or biking) will help you a lot.
Lots of love and wishes.♥️

Congrats Rachel 👐
OMG
So much positive energy when I check my phone and I see Rachel replied and liked my comment 10 minutes a go ❤❤
Anyone else love how they carried that joke on for like ever at around 4 minutes 😂💕
ahhhh rachel that was a big step and im soooo proud of you!!! thank you for showing your life with us, you have no idea how much you motivate me to keep going and not give up on my goals!!!
Awesome video Rachel! You made that apartment so awesome! Good luck with this new chapter in your life! 🍀
I really love watching your videos and I think your move makes complete sense. it's much better for you to separate your work area from where you relax and sleep. I hope you'll be very happy there. 🙂
So excited for you! Living by yourself is the BEST!
thank you for taking care of yourself
🥺
I think you made the best choice for yourself and that’s the most important thing 🤍 I know I felt so stuck before in my old studio apartment when I was in grad school and you feel like you’re in Groundhog Day every single day 🙃 it would’ve been nice to not have my desk and bed in the same room - the naps are too tempting! Your apartment looks really cute and I’m excited you have a fresh new space to feel better in 🤗

@RachelSouthard ALL THE BEST!!😌❤
Congrats on a new house!!! Could you do a video about budgeting in med school and how the heck you pay for things without a job?! Haha my husband and I are preparing for me to apply this cycle and hopefully start next year and are wondering how we will make it work on just his income. I feel like nobody ever talks about budgeting and expenses so it would be helpful!!!!
So happy for you! I love your new place 😊
so excited for you rachel! this is so cool
SO from today we will watch you happier with your own space so yeah good luck 💜

I’m so happy for you, Rachel! Your new space is adorable! Living alone is a big step; you’ve got this! ♥️
Good for you, Rachel! I made a move in the middle of school from basement apartment with barely any windows (snow would always bury them too!) to the top floor with huge windows. Sunlight is so important especially in the wintertime! Take care and stay well!
Peel-n-stick!
The best for you, keep it up Rachel!!!!!
Congratulations Rachel! I think you made the right decision with moving for boards and most importantly your MENTAL HEALTH!!
Also thanks for the flooring tips, definitely going to do that to my tiles
The apartment is so beautiful.. I hope you have beautiful days in it. 🤗

Love that:)
It’s coming soon! Within a month.
Rachel ‘bout to get everybody’s $1,400 stimulus checks 🤑😏
You are moving to a new place??? Nice, can’t wait to see
It's crazy how your videos always make me smile!!! I'm studying and click on your video and it's like "hey this is why we do this!" :)
I wish you a really happy and new chapter of your life !!!!
I have started watching your youtube from last august
Honestly i had a very rough week, been feeling down and it's very stressful living far from those we love in this pandemic period. I applied for a job at good pay and experience place and today i had to let it down due to a family emergency. But your video just made me so motivated and to continue to work and one day hopefully I can be as strong as you Rachel! Love you lots!
I love your new house .you did great job! Dont give up ur wonderful and can overcome financial issues 🍒🍒
Those peel and stick tiles are AMAZING. I'm apartment hunting in an area that has a lot of old, historical places, which is nice but they like all need updates. Those tiles are going to be a game changer for me!!
I was literally just finishing up a plate of taquitos while watching this so you mentionning them specifically caught me off guard ahahaha
HAHAH love that
Just FYI, most box cutter blades you can just snap off the top off the blade when it gets dull!
aweee what a milestone 💕
Also..“just friends” oof
Hey ! I had to move during medical school too, not easy !!! Glad it went well, keep it up and now FOCUS MODE Boards !!!!
wow Rachel..i really love the way you keep yourself motivated and push yourself to try something new always. Really happy to see you moving to a new space, managing time and keeping the good mental health in mind I truly get inspire from all of that. wish you luck and lots of success!! keep posting and sharing videos and thoughts it really helps me boost during the hard times :) love from India
I'm so excited for this new chapter of your life. The apartment looks great! Happy to see you now have separate places to study vs. sleep.
Congratulations your place is way cute. Can u introduce your plants in a vlog :))
Usually blades are reversible or breakable so you can flip it around or break off a piece for a new blade
Soo happy for u and excited for the new vlogs!!
CONGRATS ON A NEW CHAPTER!!
Happy for you!!
