Frequently Asked Questions:
😇 How old are you? 23
📝 What are you studying? I am set to start my MA in English Literature at Oxford this autumn.
📚What are your favourite books? • 200 book recommendatio...
📚 Do you have a book club? Yes! You can join it here for free: fable.co/club/reading-with-th...
📝 Have you written a book? My life goal is to be a published author and make a living from writing and I am using this year to gain experience, build up a portfolio and work on a book with my agent. I have just finished the final draft of that book, as you can see in this video. I did self-publish a book about bullying when I was seventeen which is available on Amazon (amzn.to/3mdJKLm), but I'm slightly embarrassed by it now!
🎃 Do you have merch? I don't have merch in the traditional sense (I can't imagine selling something with my face or name on haha!), but I do have a stationery company where I sell planners for students. These are all designed with students in mind and follow models which I've used when planning my studying. Our products are printed in pastel colours on recycled paper: bit.ly/3wgsR85
🍵 What's your favourite tea? That's a REALLY hard one, but I think I'd have to say the B&B Chocolate Digestive Tea: bird-and-blend-tea-co.sjv.io/youwilllovethisone (affiliate link)

I love how much of what you used to do at home on a regular basis SUITS this new setting perfectly - your style of studying, your love for beauty and harmony, your ellegance. It is like you lived inside A WORLD that is now materialized on the outside. Love to rediscover Oxford through your eyes.

I've been deliberating for a few minutes whether or not to comment this, but I just wanted to say that it was so refreshing and validating to hear someone so openly and casually mention having a therapy appointment. I have been having sessions for a number of years and always feel a bit nervous to mention it. You have given me such a confidence boost. Thank you for being your wonderful, transparent self.

It’s so important to overcome that cultural stigma of therapy! It’s okay for us to struggle and not be okay and we should normalise reaching out when we need to 🤍

@@declancampbell1277 I was so nervous when I went to my first therapy session, hoping that no one would notice. Turns out therapy was really great for me and I spoke quite openly about it in my friend group, thus influencing a friend of mine to start going to therapy as well. I was so proud of him when he told me, I think most people would be better off seeing a therapist and you're definitely not "weak" and should not be ashamed :)

C.S. Lewis was a master of allegorical imagery, and I’m so glad you’re reading his works. There is a large collection of his essays available as a PDF file online titled God in the Dock-I highly recommend it. The talks he did on BBC radio during WWII must have surely bolstered those listening during those arduous days; those scripts eventually becoming the basis for Mere Christianity, one of the best Christian apologetics books ever written. I am very happy that you’re adjusting so well to your new and beautiful surroundings. Cheers!

Your story is so inspiring to me... I've been following your content for 6 or more years now, I remember you studying so hard in school, I rember the rejection from Oxford, the poem you read through tears and how proud of you and impressed it made me feel, you being devastated by your first mark in uni and the courage of being vulnerable online, you changing degrees in Exeter, the gap year. Now I can see how all these experiences probably shaped you into a person that can now fully thrive in Oxford. Because it will be more than just productive. I really wish you have amazing time studying there, meet new people, get inspired, be happy.🎉 Meanwhile I got my master degree in natural sciences, got into PhD programm and dropped out after a year, dropped out of NGO I had spent 6 years working in... And now I am depressed and looking for a job in completely different industry and getting rejected again and again. Maybe it is just redirection that will pay off eventually, I really hope so

The Oxford University experience looks nothing less than amazing, gruelling too with all the library visits, preliminary research and the pre-readings before class even begins! Think about that! Can't study at Oxford without a proper tea set-up. Thanks Ruby for highlighting that😅 And your visit to Blackwell's, consuming a well-curated museum of books at your feet. Better know some Latin while you're at it🎉❤😅

I’m still astonished by the prep ahead of time. When I did my master’s we had such an unbelievably different set up. I was working full time for the two years leading up to it to be able to afford to go. The reading list was four books! That was all we had to do. I realise that vlogging is one of Ruby’s jobs but she is fitting in a lot of actual study around talking to us.

@@bethmcmullan7686 not even going to dignify that statement. Sure, Oxford churns out a lot of Tory knuckleheads in the halls of power particularly policy-wise (Sunak Truss, Boris Johnson etc), but that doesn't mean Oxford is devoid of very high educational standards.

As a homeschooling family in the US, our kids each learned a different foreign language in high school after learning some German in elementary and middle school and studying Latin and Greek root words with flashcards for several years. My eldest learned Latin in high school, my second learned German, my third learned Russian in a community college course, and my fourth learned American Sign Language online via ASL University. I am currently reviewing and furthering my studies in German via DuoLingo, and I've made a start in learning Latin via DuoLingo, too. I am soooo enjoying seeing all of the libraries and Blackwell's!!
