University Move-In || unpacking, studying, book shopping

Hello, and welcome to my channel. This is a space for study enthusiasts and tea drinkers, and those who spend hours ambling around libraries and book shops. I hope that my videos can provide motivation and encourage you to be productive, but without feeding into Hustle Culture. I think that productivity is all about enjoying what we do, and finding time for things that bring us happiness or will bring us happiness in the future -- and I hope to celebrate this kind of living on my channel.

    It's 11 pm. I lit a scented candle. I turned on my fairy lights and salt lamp and switched the remaining lights off. I got a cup of warm green tea. Snuggled into my bed. Laying cozy, squished in my fluffy pillows, watching your video

    I looked forward to every new year at university, driving from home to the new house in which I would live (a different one each year for four years), breaking the journey at a roadside café, much as you did here. Getting settled into your space is very important - only when you feel settled can you get on with what you're there to do (studying) and feel ready for the term ahead. On which note: have a good one and take care of yourself, Ruby!
