Don’t feel silly for feeling relaxed building LEGO, that is absolutely part of their appeal to so many people. I used to work at a LEGO store, and so many people told me how calming it is for them to build.

“I know I should go to the doctors, but I’m not going to do that” seems like the adulthood motto 🥲 sending extra love to you during this month 💓

You know it will be a good video when the expensive sweater is featured.

Also a positive thing that happened recently is I got my eyes checked and am getting my first pair of glasses! I’ve had headaches and slightly blurred vision most of my life and haven’t had the money to get them, so I can’t wait!!

6 DOUBLE SHOTS? That sounds terrifying.

The way i was so invested in the library book situation 😂

Living vicariously through you in watching you build Lego sets. It's so cozy. ❤

Loving the library rep on all the best booktuber channels. ❤

Good Thing: I went into town on my own on the bus (I have really bad anxiety and agoraphobia). I went to 4 shops, didn't cry, then got the bus to pick up Mother's Day flowers and walked home. I didn't panic, I nearly cried but didn't!!

Thank you so much for the kind shoutout! ❤ I had a blast on the Why Read? discussion with you and Becca! Yay for Kindred! Can’t tell you how thrilled I am that you read and loved it! It’s truly worthy of all the praise. One happy moment this last week: my husband took me out on a surprise date. I love happy surprises and can’t wait to find out your good news! 💙💕

Watching this with a broken heart is helping me see the fun side of life for a while. Thanks, Gavin!! Great vlog xo

I loved the video! The Snow White cottage is on my list, it looks adorable. Also good for you making that coffee change. It's hard but you can do it!

No way! We are even twinning with our oatmilk in our coffee this week!😂 I also started using oatmilk only diffrent reason, because the cows are treated like shit here.

Yay! I love these slice of life vlogs. They're the epitome of cozy 🤗

Wonderful vlog as always! I absolutely cannot wait for the Norway trip!!! I am so so excited and can’t wait to meet you and everyone on the trip! 🎉💜

I always get so happy seeing you wear the expensive jumper! It'll be paying for itself soon (ish!) 💕

I got a new job that pays double what I’m making now plus great benefits!

I love that you’re reading what you want to read this year! Even if they’re not all 5 stars at least you’re leaning into what you want rather than what you think you *should* be doing ❤❤

I freaking agree with you on A Study in Drowning. I could not care less about Effy.

Kindred is so good, glad you enjoyed it. One great thing that happened to me this week was a very successful presentation I gave at work. :) Made me really happy because I felt so competent.

Haha, when I went to Oslo 2 years ago, there was a heatwave, so it was around 30 degrees Celsius all week 😂 But in The Netherlands (where I live) it was even hotter during that week, so it was definitely somewhat cooler, but not much lol!

I am loving the slice of life vlogs! And Norway looks beautiful. One day I will have the extra income to travel.

Please keep these videos coming!

I so relate to the coffee thing. First I switched from 2-3 Coffees a day to one. Then I switched to almond milk and now I switched to decaf and suddenly I am less bloated, less anxious and sleep better (who would have thought) :D. I also love that we are both entered our LEGO Phase right now. :D I recently build the Orchid and on the weekend I build the X Wing Fighter and now I am already wanting to get a new set but they are so prices. 😫

I love these slice of life vlogs so much!! Also the Snow White Lego build is so cute! Makes me want to go buy it 😂💖

My good thing this week: Just finished Assassin's Apprentice by Robin Hobb and it's the best book I've read so far this year. 5 stars - absolutely amazing!

I'm obsessed with watching you build lego sets😍 might have to start a new hobby🤭

I hope you're feeling better. I felt much better after cutting caffeine from my diet. Thanks for the wonderful video!

I love love love these slice of life vlogs so much, I hope you continue to do these 🥹🥰 watching you get so excited about the Lego sets is my favorite haha. I’m also so excited you get to go to Norway for your next Trova trip, that trip sounds like it’s going to be so special, those clips you showed, wow how beautiful 😍👏

YES your slice of lifes are my faves, the more the merrier!

Study in Drowning was such a bad read for me and I thought it was going to be amazing. Expectations was not met unfortunately

Watching this while building my Hogwarts Lego castle & then you went to the Lego store and talked about your new love of it, it’s helped my anxiety so much too. Enjoy ❤️

Loving the Lego content Gavin! It looks so relaxing ☺ The slice of life videos are really enjoyable to watch!

I've been trying to refrain from starting a new hobby and getting lego but you've just made it more difficult 😂

Nooo I was super keen for a study in drowning 😭 but it is sad to know it is really boring... I think dark academia can walk the line. "Curtis was supposed to LOVE me" is such an iconic moment and scene. I love that musical. YES Kindred is one of my favourite books of all time and is the best place to jump into Octavia's work. So glad you loved it too 🥰

I'm so glad to hear that you're doing a little better!!! Take care of yourself Gav! And I hope you learn to love oat milk coffees as much as I do, because I love em hahaha

Absolutely loving the slice of life vlogs! 😍 Super cozy!

An awesome thing that happened for me this week is that I went out and bought all the animal crossing lego sets that were recently released.... sooooooo much joy

This channel has Gav in Drag and that’s pure honestly. If you can love it, you can love him going TMI.

I really need to read A Study in Drowning. This video is making me more desperate to give it a try! 😊 Omg your mum getting you sushi is so wholesome ❤❤❤ also, totally get the caffeine making you bloated. I had to completely give it up because of severe pain (and also heart palpitations) but I’ve become addicted to drinking cocoa tea from Knoops and Korean buckwheat tea so it’s all good!

Almonds make me bloated too! I was eating almond yogurt for a year and felt so bloated then one day made the connection. Now I do oat everything and feel so much better! Glad you made the change 😊

Slice of life 😊

Absolutely love your lengthy slice of life vlogs! 1h long 🥳 don’t ever say sorry for being an adult enjoying Lego. I too find it so relaxing and enjoyable and you can just switch the rest of the world off 🙌🏼 really enjoy watching you make them and can’t wait to see what your next one will be!! ❤❤

Have you tried drinking matcha instead of coffee? 😊. Something to try. It’s so good 🎉

I'm loving these slice of life videos so much! And thank you for the true crime docu rec, I'm going to make Can I Tell You a Secret one of my weekend watches this Saturday :D

obsessed with that sweater

Omg! I can’t wait for the wheel of time first and last lol

I love the lego sections of these videos! I wish I could come to Norway but I’m going to Florida next year and my finances won’t stretch that far😢 So excited for Egypt though!

Love the mug 😊I've been thinking to get a class mug too

Love the mug, idk if this helps but I changed the sequence of my drinks. I begin the day with hot tea and then I have a hot coffee for or after lunch. Just a quick note on coffee

I didn’t find a study in drowning that great either. I was disappointed and underwhelmed.

The Snow White cottage is so cute! I'm so happy you found a new five star read!

I love that you found Lego as your go-to for relaxing and letting the day go. I've taken up puzzles again recently and was working on one while I watched this video. My good vibes check: I spent the weekend in Toronto (I live a couple of hours away) so I could watch the Aladdin musical (which I didn't overly like, so that was a bummer start to the trip), the play "Rosencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead" starring Billy Boyd and Dominic Monaghan (who are amazing and play off of each other so well), and then finally I saw Six the musical--which I loved! Toronto's Jane Seymour seems to be out for an extended period so they brought in one of Broadway's Janes and she fit in so well with these Queens.

Also started watching the video you just made live😄

Bloody marvellous seeing you back in another slice of life vlog, definitely keep these as a permanent for the channel. Not only that we can make sure that you are alright as well then xx

I had the most delicious bowl of ramen with pork belly, kale, and mushrooms and fresh garlic...since I'm diabetic, I only had one small forkful of the noodles, but that didn't detract from the flavors bursting in my mouth! You rock, Gavin. Wish I could join you in Norway...

That latte sounds so good

Ngl - as a Norwegian - the pronunciations made me giggle a little, but it makes me really happy to see how excited you are! 🤭

Nice vlog

I find it difficult to read books from the library - because I get stressed out thinking about someone possibly waiting on me to finish and return it.

So cool that you're coming to Norway :D 💜 If you have time to look into any bookshops in Oslo, I'd recommend the Ark Egertorget one! It's the one I go to whenever I travel by Oslo💜

I never know what to say in the comments section and, therefore, usually always avoid it. However, thanks for the content you create. I really do look forward to and enjoy you and your content. And so long as you are able, please keep up the amazing talent of communication and friendly, engaging entertainment in this amazing reading world 😊

i cant wait for the empire of the vampires vlog cuz i need me a refresher too XD

Omg you're coming here to Norway! It's beautiful here, especially outside/around Bergen with all the big cliffs and fjords. I've got family from there and live there each summer. But it's beautiful literally everywhere in the West. But I've heard "Nord Norge" = North Norway, and the south is as well lol. Like anywhere but here in the east of Norway has beautiful nature, to be honest. Have fun

I have Parable of the Sower to read here soon and when I say I'm excited and terrified to finally get to Octavia Butler. (Also, your videos have me wanting to start doing LEGO again. I haven't played w those since I was a kid.)

oof that coffee intake 🤣 I'm glad you're looking after yourself, and small changes can be sooo beneficial ☺️☺️ I really want glass coffee mugs too ahahah and I feel it on the warm drink being so comforting. The rant about the person not returning the overdue book sent me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'm sorry but that was so funny !!! About amazing things happening: I did a workout that I procrastinated for a bit 💪🏽 I did all sorts of other workouts in between while pushing this in front of me like an unwanted cart. Also new mildliners arrived and I am currently awaiting my One Piece omnibus covering volumes 97, 98, 99 (which I havent read yet as I left Wano 2020 to be finished and never caught up xD).

I just finished Bride and really enjoyed it. Gets a bit spicy toward the end. And by the way, Jason Moana's favorite color is pink according to him on his series 'On The Roam'.

Pink is my least favorite color, but I'm almost ready to change my mind because holy cow, Gavin, you look fabulous in that 49:32 combo!💕

I feel that. I wanted to read One Piece vols 21 and 22 and my library only has one copy of each, now the person before me needed to have returned them by Halloween… I finally got them on the 19th December… oh I was pissed. Also they smelt strongly of strawberry lipgloss so that was an experience.

I am so curious about where your middle grade shelves and books went!

It's been a pretty chaotic week but if we're sharing positive things I found a brand new hard cover copy of Weyward in a little antique shop for $5.00. Just about made my week

-"ok lets get a little bit cozycozy" made me cackle 😂 -suspense is currently killing me for your faebound thoughts 👀 -not the Florence callout -omg that's my face 😇 -CAMELTOE HAHAHAH
