A Day in My Life as a Politics Student at Oxford ☕🍂 studying, cooking, classes
Productive study days as a politics student at the University of Oxford
Hi friends! In this vlog, I finish 500 pages of reading, do lots of cooking, enjoy the autumn weather, go book shopping, and spend time with friends. I get tired when I stay in one place to study for too long so I move around to different libraries throughout the day lol. Anyways thank you so much for the love in the last video and hope you guys enjoy!

the shot of the sunset with the two guys walking and laughing is so cute to me for some reason. just two friends enjoying each others company
I know. She seriously captured a true 'moment in time' there
The same remark ❤just like a movie scene
and they be having rich people laugh too >
British laughter
As a 32 year old watching this, I see the moments in life that I never had, and will never have. What a beautiful life you lead. I am genuinely so happy for you. You also seem to appreciate everything you have.
It’s never too late to do anything you dream of! Dont compare your journey to others, we’re all in different places and are going through different troubles, it’s never too late to do things like this :)
I’m 47 and getting ready to go to college fall of next year. It’s never too late. I couldn’t before because I’ve had Rheumatoid Arthritis that made me disabled (first diagnosed at age 8) but by me listening to the latest science and data and figuring it out all on my own I halted my Rheumatoid Arthritis and brought the severe disease activity down to zero and I have zero symptoms so I’m finally not disabled anymore so I’m absolutely taking this time and well body to college and I have my 13 year old daughter that I homeschool and we’re going to live on campus 💝💝💝💝. Never too late. I plan on 6 to 8 years for college for the field I’m going into 💝💝💝 regenerative farming and agriculture in climate change and environmental studies since it was real whole nutrient dense foods that halted my severe Rheumatoid arthritis ❤
Nothing is too late as long a u make your 1st step. I was just starting to tidy up my house and capturiing footages. Still learning the editing and video concept but at least I stepped out. I'm 30 but that's just a number, cheers 🥂
I just want to say that you’ll 35,40 anyways so why not spent those year doing something u dream of? Goodluck i hope u lead a beautiful life!
@@amberbariaktariso proud of you! So inspiring! Are you documenting your journey anywhere?
Please don't ever stop making such videos. That boosted my motivation so much. Now I feel the urge to go to my university's library and work hard 😭
Dork
I respect how you are studying hard while you are enjoying your college life. And your videos are so comfortable. I’m rooting for you❤
exactly my thoughts
kzhead.info/sun/aKlrpKWwbXmHhK8/bejne.html
While i can enjoy in college, i can't say the same about studying hard, no wonder i will never reach these top colleges.
OMG Your video quality is unmatched 😳 The editing, thumbnail, story telling is on point 🤌
Omg thank u so much!!

Honest question: How does one read 500 pages of academic writing in two days? What’s the strategy? This is something I’ve always struggled with in university 😢
I can easily read 500 page fiction book in a few hours. But academic writing, where i have to learn and retain the info? 😬 it would be great to see her strategy for this
You can use a read out loud programme
I dont believe its possible, you have to jump over a lot of stuff.. shes probably more like editing info into talking points
I'm in my first year but after passing several lit tests/exams in secondary, the main tip is that you most probably won't have to read the entire thing so: -scan the table of contents for any chapters that are specifically relevant to your assignment/test and start reading those, if you can -take notes during and not after reading a long section to avoid having to peruse through it again -skip over any part that feels redundant -skip over examples if you feel like you understand the point they're illustrating - if a concept isn't well explained or is too hard to grasp, look it up elsewhere and see if you can understand it better that way -find an audio version of it and listen to it on 1.5x speed but only do this if you think you can retain information that way -if the author is famous and has an active presence on the internet, see if you can find a ted talk, an interview or an article where they discuss the topic you're reading on
I came here for idyllic Oxford content but left with the greatest study tips!
Reminds me of my time at the University of Toronto. Old architecture hundreds of pages of reading in days, debating an argument in tutorials, research papers... Undergrad in Political Science and Geography is done, now strongly considering Babson College for MBA in Entrepreneurship (a few years from now). Academic life is such a wonderful experience. Good luck and by forth year, you'll feel pretty burnt out just hang in there!
The tip for organizing notes for different arguments with a table was a Genius and an unexpected bonus for this video! 😊
Hihi

I would love to see a full video on this with examples of how you break it down. It would be a great resource for many high school and Uni students.
Can’t wait to see all the great things you’ll do in the future! Keep working hard and stay healthy 🫶🏽

Cant agree more with that.
The way you work on your assignments is so beautiful. It's truly amazing that you attend Oxford University. I hope you continue to be happy in the future.
I wish I found you when I was younger! I take political economy and watching you breeze through your readings really reminded me of my time in college. Had we had more folks in social media from the field of politics, I'm positive I would have been more inspired in studying. So thanks for being candid, truthful, and lovely!

Such a nice blog, Jing. This reminds me of my days at Oxford so much. I could relate to every bit of your video. Honestly it’s nostalgic when I saw The Randolph at the end and I could see my previous student house too.
Your library is giving all the dark academia study vibes! Love it!!
Great video! And quite inspiring as well! May you keep on studying and achieving whatever you set your mind to.
I've just discovered your channel and it's soooo soooo good. It helps me get more motivation in life and works. please don't stop doing this.

This is the first video I've watched on your channel and it's simply amazing! I can't wait to watch the other videos. I wish you success in your studies🤍
Love to watch blogs of people who have actually well... How I would say... Planned their life. It is so refreshing to see that when your life is chaotic and you will never know what will happen next.
Your vlogs are amazing,so professional,the editing and music are just perfect ❤
thank u so much!!

I’m also a student at Oxford but I forget how beautiful it is to attend this school because I’m so stressed during term time… your videos are helping me be more attentive to the beauty of my daily life
The amount of hard work you do, got me feeling like 😱😲.. Thanks for this inspiring video sis🧡
tell me why this deadass made me emotional, i have so much respect for you, oxford will always be my dream uni- currently doing my gcse’s, and watching your videos just makes me want to achieve that dream even more
I love your videos. please keep updating when you can and stay safe. you're so inspiring. big love❤❤
I got recommended your first vlog last night and I’ve been hooked. Love your editing and content ❤️
Aww thank u so much! 💗
This is was soo relaxing to watch. Keep going!!! Love yaa
what a gem of a youtube studymotivation channel! so glad I found you.
Omg, I’ve been waiting for this! Watching this is giving me motivation to do my homework 😆
Hehe let’s kill this term together 🤓
You werent jealous. Okay just a dog.
this is really inspiring and motivating omg. i got into oxford a few days ago and i'll be starting (hopefully!) this october :) it's really good to see what life will possibly be like, and that i needn't worry that life will be purely based around my studies, because you clearly show that that is NOT the case. thank you!
@@firebanner6424 we have to send in applications and personal statements in by october (i think some time around the 15th), and depending on your course, the university might ask you to submit written work by the beginning of november. then you should hear whether or not you get an interview for oxford about a week before the interview period in december. the interviews vary between courses, for my course i had two set interviews, and was subsequently asked by another college to interview for them. the different colleges are essentially where you sleep and eat- you would have tutorials either in your college or someone else's college, and classes outside of college. so yeah different colleges can ask you to interview for them if there isn't enough space in the college you're applying for. then when the interviews are over there is a day in january (this year it was the 10th) when all the offers or rejections go out. i was lucky enough to get an offer, but nearly everyone else in my grade who applied was rejected. the process is REALLY hard and confusing but so worth it in the end. even if you get rejected, there is so much to learn from the process. good luck at stanford!!
@@blue15443 every uni in the uk costs roughly the same. i’m taking out student loans to help pay for tuition. it’s basically how every other uni student in England pays for their tuition. it’s not like the US with the excessively expensive private university tuition fees
wow congrats! wishing your academic journey a success :))
are there any scholarships that pay fully for students from other countries? i wanna try getting into Oxford for my masters but i come from a middle class family and i don't think my parents will be able to afford universities abroad please help
i love how you balance between work and social life
You are one of the most hardworking person i’ve ever seen😳 Can’t even tell i’m jealous or empathise
OMG the Oxford architecture and interiors are incredible though! And your vlog is very interesting! Thanks for uploading 🥰
Da someone who gets bad marks at school, I really admire you for getting in such a good university!! 💕wish you all the best 🫶
Just wonderful ❤ The filming combined with the scenario of Oxford is on an entirely new level 😊
OML I LOVE THIS TYPE OF VIDS !!!!! IM IN LOVE
The university is absolutely beautiful. I wish I could be there in person just exploring all the buildings.
Nice vlog! Love how productive you are throughout the day. ❤👍🏻Keep it up 💪🏻🌈
Such relaxing and astetic vlogs! Coungrats and wishing you all the best ❤️
It's so nice to see you with your friends ❤
I just found your channel recently and love your Vlogs, especially about Oxford University. I am only 15 but I have dreamed of studying law at Oxford since I was 13 or 14 and I hope one day to be in the same position as you. I feel like watching these Vlogs is a way of manifesting my dream along with hard work, you're truly an inspiration for me! ❤🌟
so long as you are passionate in your subject as well as others and the world around you, you're all set! oxford admissions tutors want to see knowledge and interest in global affairs, history etc. if you show you're an interesting and interested person they'll love you :)))
Good luck! I am rooting for you
Good luck! I am rooting for you
Hey! Isabella I'm from India. And I'm 17. I'm an humanities student and my dream is also same as yours Studying law at Oxford. And I hope to work hard towards achieving my dream and I wish both of us could fulfill our dream and experience the life we always wanted!
Where you from?
The formal dinner looks just like Harry's Potter ❤
Very cozy vlog and I just loved all the libraries in the background!! Motivation to study is raising with little things ✨
Glad i found this, my first time watching vids like this and really thankful that this is calming for me
Your videos are SO GOOD! and so inspiring! I'm so glad you took the step and started youtube
thank u
Really impressive how disciplined you are. I also got motivated by your 500 pages reading in two days. That's one thing am Gonna say to myself to motivate me when I'll be bored of reading a book
You’re never gonna be successful
@@24emre heuuu. Then tell me how I can be successfull🤷♂️

Thanks a million for the high dose of motivation! After a tough uni day, your videos are like nothing else charging not to give up and go on like this. P.s. Literally obsessed with this dark academia vibe in your vlogs.
aww thank u so much

Damn, my respect for you just went up after learning you not only had to read 500 pages in 2 days, but had to produce a detailed summary on that as well 😶 I could never cope with that 🙃 how is information retention even possible with that volume of reading?
Loving following your journey with you! 😍📚
I don’t know what it is but me watching your videos is just so calming and it makes me happy and inspired 😊😊
Can I just say that I enjoyed every min of this video?.. Thanks for sharing it with us. I really do appreciate your time & effort given to this. Honestly, everything was so peaceful and just so nice. It was so refreshing & inspiring to see the life of an oxford student. Also I really love your editing skills. Keep up the good work! Fighting 😉
thank u so much!!
I’m so early >\\< but wow your editing and everything is so pretty and calming to watch ❤!!
Thank u so much hehe
Such a beautiful and comfy vlog to watch! Wish you the best! ☺️
These vids are really relaxing watching whilst working, keep them coming! :)
Love these types of vlogs. Always interesting learning what other people's days are like. Oxford. Wow good for you. By the way, my mom's name is Jing (means quiet in Chinese) - reason why I clicked on your video. Looking forward to your next video.
I am also a graduate student. We have to read hundreds of pages. I understand you very well. I wish you success in your lessons. I really liked your video. I look forward to your new videos :)
omg a new vid! I love the aesthetic on this channel can’t wait to see this channel grow over time! ❤ love from england! 💖
thank uuuuu
All your videos need is a moment a glimpse of your mind in your own words at the end that incaptialate the experience in a artistic form of language that blows a slight whisper within the watchers of your story
As a student at Oxford, its so interesting to see familiar sites from your lens! PS: I can't believe you take tutorials at my college (Pembroke) haha
I wish you good luck in all your academic endeavors! I hope you are enjoying Oxford and I hope that you'll pass with flying colors!
Thank u so much!!
@@jingsuuu You're welcome!
Absolutely in love with the way you carried the video 🌷🌷🌷
Loved this video and the fact that you included Laufey's song!! I've been listening to that one so often that I had to pause the video to make sure my Spotify hadn't randomly started playing😄
I’m currently doing nothing in life but u motivate me to work harder.. wish I could be like u 🫶🏻💕🥺
I really appreciate how thoughtful you frame everything and the gorgeous scenery- that sunset was icing on the cake! I wish I was back at Oxford! Have you been to Duke Humfrey’s Library at the Bodleian? I think it’s one of the most picturesque libraries that I’ve ever seen and would be a great addition to your Oxford experience. Looking forward to more great videos! 😊 ps- that fried cheesy thing is a croquette lol
I’ve been meaning to go but I heard it’s super strict and u can’t even bring water in??
The Bod has lockers you can use for free (or used to - probably still does). Don’t even think of removing a book from the secure shelves at the Duke Humphrey without getting permission from a librarian. It’ll set off an alarm! I made that mistake once :~D
Please keep posting- your videos are spiritually healing on another level! I will be able to say I was there from the start when your channel blows up :))
ahhhh thank uuuu

I loved the video, it’s just so calming a motivating
Your college studies seem very hard and tiring but you have a power for struggling with these :))
I gotta say this is the first video that got me interested about that university. You honestly live the life I dream of living in the future. Congratulations in getting there, I will follow you and your videos and I hope that your whole Oxford journey will be that great as it is now. ❤ Question: Could you film a video about your Ipad, accessories, or anything else you use to study regarding this subject? I am looking for an Ipad for studying and taking notes as well, I'd love to hear your recommendations!
Thank u so much! I use an ipad 7th gen and mostly use goodnotes with it. I also have a matte screen protector from amazon because I feel like it makes the ipad feel more like paper when I'm writing. Hope that helps!

Awesome video Jing, It's been a while since I was at uni, considering diving back in. Your video just juiced me up. Thanks
I did a summer program at Pembroke College when I was 16 (I am 31 now). I almost cried seeing it here - thank you for sharing!
Hihi
Please keep it up with the amazing vlogs!
Thank uuu
So comforting 🥰🤍🫶🏼📚✏️
Your video are so comfy and comforting ❤I'm glad I found your youtube channel ❤
It's really inspiring and motivating to watch such videos as I'm studying in the college as well. Keep up the good work 👏 and keep inspiring young generations 👍. By the way, what I'm curious about is, do you spend most of the time alone ? Or just for the video you've been alone so that there won't be any disturbance?
Whatever you do... Never ever try a Rustler's BBQ Pork sandwich with a slice of processed cheese and some mayo!! I lived on those when I stayed in the UK for a while... and I feel very guilty that I was hooked on them.
Ur videos are so calming and make me miss London moreee
You just gave me motivation to study, I loved this!! it was so therapeutic!!💗💗
💕
