    Fun Fact about why people cringe when hearing their own voice on camera! When you talk, you hear your voice through the vibrations in your skull, but on camera it comes through the vibrations in the air. This means that on camera, your voice actually sounds slightly lower than it really is, causing you to “cringe” because it doesn’t sound like you!! #funfact 😂😂😂

The feeling of almost wanting to go back in time and tell yourself that it's going to be okay, and you are going to love it there, and you will make the best friends with people there, just trying to reassure myself about things, but yeah feeling total deja vu watching this.

    I can’t believe that I’ve seen the whole video!!! And I enjoyed it a lot as I kept remembering the past, and when I used to watch your videos one by one. Also, thinking about myself after 3-4 years when I finish uni is crazy. I already miss it when I imagined it. 🥺💘

I think you're just such a nice person! Both videos (the old one and the one now) plus YoUr BoOk (!!!) will certainly be such a great help for people starting uni.

    boy oh boy, watching this brings back memories of my own freshers week! I'm out the other side of it now (gradded out in 2017) but you nailed it saying that freshers is seen as the best week. It was awful :') so to anyone who is ridiculously nervous don't worry there are a lot of people feeling that way! plus if you don't feel like going out in freshers don't you're with the people in the flat/block for a year you'll get to know them eventually! be yourself. Great vid Jack, nailed it in one showing the difference!

    the whole concept of moving to university is so foreign to me because my uni is literally an 18 minute or 30 minute train ride away depending on the line, but also the first year uni experience was stolen cause we're online now. i literally did one class there in march and from april its been online.

    It’s always felt like Jack has been extremely transport and open and shared his experience and it definitely made going to university a lot less scary for me but I really like that we’re getting to see a side of him where he’s actually talking about how nervous he really was because although he sounds nervous in comparison to how he is today when I originally watched that vlog I thought he was so confident and it just gave me this radiant energy that I needed to feel comfortable going into university. I can recall rewatching his whole university series even when I was in my second and third year of university just when I was feeling down and I needed a reminder of how great university is and how many amazing experiences and opportunities you get
