aaaaaaaaaaah here we go, kids. enjoy the hectic energy. I had a fun time editing this one hehe. SF here we come!! 🌸🌞✨

[@driesbrosens3089]

Cookcking tip I learned at Uni! Find something you like to eat, that is easy to make. Try making different varients of that dish. for example: I really like making wraps. So I go to the store and buy vegetables and tortillas and change the combination everytime i make it. so maybe the first time I have tomatoes, carrots, cucumber and mushrooms. but then for the next time i change the mushrooms for potatoes or the carrotes for bellpepper. also herbs/spices can make your dish taste completly different.

[@helenjames6982]

I love making wraps too so that's great advice!

[@chelsey8737]

Thats really smart. You'll always like it and you know how to make it

[@ellie8782]

good thinking and the same goes for pasta, curries and cassaroles

[@zoebicknell2200]

That's what I did, but for me my go to food was a stir fry, you can get loaaaads of veggies in and it uses up leftovers

[@ellie8782]

Zoë Bicknell stir fries are great like that so are soup 🍜

Gets 3 A*s in A levels UnJaded Jade: I'm the worst at being organised and doing stuff in advance

Thats possible. Being a good student doesnt always mean u can manage time well. I got astars too by studying during the last few days before exam.

[@isabellep6122]

She’s growing up guys oh my god this feels so surreal

[@IbrahimMehdiStudios]

Can’t believe you’re already going. You’ve made me actually start caring and focusing on myself and my future. Thank you. You will never know what your videos mean to me.

[@tanihehe]

Same. She's inspired me to atleast try and get good grades and to focus on studying. Love seeing her persue her dreamssss

so fcking truuuuue

[@itsbosnianollg6365]

Thanks for ❤lysm

[@toastedcheese]

Omg the way you laughed about your bag being overweight I'd actually cry

[@_justezzie_1759]

There is no time for crying 😂 it is just surviving and managing to fit as much in the suitcase as possible and hoping you will be under the limit and then taking everything out (that is what it feels like) to make it the right weight😂

[@monifarodrigues8766]

Omg this is the start of a new journey- I can already tell you’re gonna do amazing at minerva, also you writing a letter to your mum is sooo cutee xxx mums are the best honestly ❤️

[@Capturia]

WE STAN JADE BEING REAL & NOT TRYING TO BE THE PERFECT STUDYTUBER❤

[@stevie1966]

the editing is off the SCALE you continue to impress! love ya 💗💗

[@caorgi]

I am SO excited for you! I used your Australia videos RELIGIOUSLY for my trip in July and it honestly wouldn't have gone well without your advice in both packing and destinations! This sounds brilliant and I hope you continue to update us on your bonkers life! Good luck!

[@kiayah]

forever proud of you Jade, and constantly inspired. Thank you💛

[@rimmy9464]

*watching jade experience her uni journey makes going through uni myself more enjoyable ♡*

[@awesomemortercycle1]

Yes pretty cold in SF, we wear hoodies all year long but pack beachwear because once you go a good 10 miles away it's boiling.

[@oliviam2331]

Massive good luck Jade, you’ll be fab! I move away to uni in a week, less far, but so exciting and surreal... arghhhh! Managed to squeeze in a ‘lil last minute break to France first so am now chill but had to be prepared. Enjoy your uni life and everything that comes with the student territory 💕

[@MollyThompsonx_]

Awh love this Jade (and big up a Unite sponsor we love them) - hope everything’s going well and I MISS YOU😭💗💗

[@nothandotshuma]

This takes me back to the time I was packing to leave home alone, for the uni. It was such an exciting, but scary time😭

[@krishabhai2915]

ahhh it's insane how quickly time flies by! Hope you have an absolutely wonderful time xx

[@TheBrennybren]

I died when you wrote that letter 💓 your family are filled with love...it’s beautiful. So excited for your future x

[@TheEvergreenSoul]

This is SO exciting! I’ve been following your journey for a while now and wow now you’re going to uni🤯😳⚡️😍 I wish you the BEST timeee everrr!!🙌🏼🧡

[@pujasarkar8917]

She is changing day by day, and looking so sweet. Love you jade.

[@hridya.r]

jade posted ?! homework whooooo haha love you 💓💖💘💞💗

[@joysfulljourney]

It's funny because when I first started watching Jade I also started watching Ruby's channel and I thought they were very alike in personality and tastes and everything, but I've slowly come to realise how completely different they are! How Ruby is more of a cosy and calm introvert and Jade is louder, more extroverted and adventurous... Such amazing, brilliant women nevertheless

[@UnJadedJade]

awhhh yes yes!! we’re super different 🙈 but equally get on so well. I miss Ruby already :( x

[@Zoe-wn5on]

Jade: “I’m taking one suitcase, I know some people take two” Me: *took 3 suitcases to international uni* 😳😳😳

[@nala3055]

I mean if you can afford international uni, you can definitely afford 3 pieces of hold luggage

[@lillycrownover9804]

Nala 305 school abroad is cheaper than school in my country for me lol

[@nala3055]

@@lillycrownover9804 Yeah that doesn't make it cheap, there's loads of international students at my uni and they're only the very rich, bc even though it's still cheaper than uni in their countries they have to pay higher foreign student fees and transport costs

[@hannahlouise6237]

Zoe Hopper I mean I filled up an entire car and I moved an hour away

[@kale3563]

Nala 305 the international school I’m going to is cheaper than an average American college even after including airfare and visas and stuff like that

[@studywithanna]

so excited for you for this new journey 💖 I’ve also moved out for uni to another country last year and I’ll definitely be watching your adventures 💖 all the best! ✨

[@yarashhab]

cant wait for all the study with me vids!! they literally helped me pass my first year of med school

[@lais743]

oh its been great watching you grow up through all these years! You are already going to uni! This is insane. Best of luck xx

[@imogenmcarajames]

Okay Jade listening to SiX while packing for uni is ICONIC

[@munxlight4840]

I am so proud of you jade have an amazing time!!💖

[@danablack3378]

For some reason I love watching packing videos

[@ansak3248]

Oh my god I’m so excited to see your journey😩❤️❤️

[@rose.colours8654]

I just moved out for uni a week ago and seeing you do this at the same time is so so cool, i really hope you'll love it there because I feel really comfortable at my new place!

[@tanisha7958]

God is it wierd that you and eve literally posted at the same time now whose video should I watch first?!😂❤️

OMG I actually love you so much and wish u the best of luck at uni

[@nfortheusername]

I haven't even started the video but I just wanna say thank you for your amazing content and positivity ❤️❤️❤️

[@jaaaaaaannnne9112]

I crieddddd at the letter writing part. I’ve been at uni for 3 weeks and this is the first time I’ve gotten really homesick.

[@kiayah]

Hope you're okay! The feeling will pass soon enough and uni will begin to feel more and more like home x

[@jaaaaaaannnne9112]

Kiayah Nolan yes thank you!

[@IsabelWest]

I was super homesick my first 2 days of uni, it gets so much better as you settle in I promise!!!

[@jaaaaaaannnne9112]

Isabel West yes thank you, it’s easier now

[@jaaaaaaannnne9112]

ChristyAlex yes thank you it’s really starting to feel normal now, I’m from America and I got to uni in Scotland so it’s not possible to go home and the time change makes it difficult sometimes to talk to them but I am really enjoying it here.

She has sobbing eyes in every clip... She has an amazing relationship with her parents we can see this 🥹🥹🥹

[@saidahiman5619]

I’ve not even watched it yet and I FEEL this!!! I’m studying abroad in the UK and my packing situation actually killed me, it’s so hard packing your life in a suitcase

[@stina1110]

You just inspire me every time I watch you and you give me the power to deal with some metal issues......Just continue what you do, you are a blessing to this world !!! Love from Germany 😊😘

[@weiterentwicklunginkl.2889]

[@spanglelime]

My favorite part about this is that your case is going to look so, SO different by second year once you finally figure out what you truly need and what you don’t, or can buy/borrow/beg if you’re truly that desperate. It happens to all of us. It’s why I laughed at Eve’s college shopping haul last year (kindly, to myself. I’m 35; if you’ve been to uni away from home, you hear me on this; we all did it!😁) Best advice for decorating your new room: get on Amazon and order a pack of Blu-Tack. I just learned it was available finally after living in America for almost 23 years after emigrating here from England. Congrats on Minerva btw Jade... I took a quick look at the website and the syllabus, the courses offered, and I’m really jealous. Also made me think of BoyInABand’s (Don’t) Stay In School education series years back. I wish I’d had a college like Minerva available as an option when I was your age. ❤️🤓

[@GabriellaFitzGerald]

Loving the step 1, get your mum involved, it’s so true 😂

[@vvvviiiicccc100]

“im not tired, just deliriously awake” I felt that 😔

[@takeitisi8956]

I felt your #distraction moment so much 😂 I always feel like I find so many things from 10 years ago and procrastinate while looking through my old stuff. Lol

[@NYLibertyAndSparkles]

I feel you, I’ve got to pack 3 months into a backpack for the first trip of my gap year and aaaah it’s so much harder than I thought it would be! Anyway, thanks for motivating me into biting the bullet and starting! Hope all is going well in San Fran, thank you for giving us updates 😘

I studied in London as an international student and packing is definitely the hardest bit!! I brought two checked bags, a mini roller bag, and a small backpack and when I first packed them I was SOOOO overweight it was such a struggle so I feel your pain haha

[@emilysnelling845]

Hey Jade! Thank you so much for sharing the stress of going international for uni. I'm from SF area and hope to be going to the UK next year. There aren't many international student youtubers, so thank you. I hope you have an amazing time in SF! Make sure to check out Chinatown and Ghirardelli Square!

[@bliss7166]

I’m from Australia and I studied abroad in the US for a semester and my biggest tip would be to buy a lot of the stuff over there like pillows, bed sheets, duvets etc! If I had fit that all in my suitcase I would’ve had no room for any clothes and my suitcase probably would’ve been heavier than Jade’s! Especially because I went during their fall semester where it was freezing and snowed so I needed to leave room for heavy jackets! I’m surprised you brought it all with you Jade!

[@emmamonros5897]

Won't you be going home for Christmas? If so you might be able to get a couple things you forgot or didn't think you needed. Btw, really happy for you and this new era💞

[@whiteaesthetic4680]

Can’t wait to see your journey at uni !!

Your list about the fish was so sweet and funny! Good luck on your next adventure and remember if you really don’t like it there’s always a plan B xxx

Tip for dinners: bulk cook enough food for a few meals then freeze for following weeks

[@lucybrown9775]

Good luck babygirl wishing you all the best

[@IsouDMI]

Tip I learned from my year abroad in london and as an over packer: pack your favourite clothes for about two weeks worth. That will minimalise the stack by ALOT. Because you’ll most likely be doing weekly/two weeks laundry loads. Because I totally only wore the same 1/3 of the closet I brought over, which consisted mainly of pyjamas hahaha.

[@jesssicadavies4325]

OMG when get down for. Six started playing I literally screamed from happiness haha

[@chelsey8737]

Definitely take 2 or 3 jackets for san Francisco. It gets warm but it also gets freezing sometimes and youll hate yourself if you dont have something warm

Good luck at uni Jade!🌻☀️🌟

[@leoniegrosse9121]

Hey Jade, I just came back from a year in London (I am not from the UK) working for a charity with people with learning disabilities. I packed only one suitcase and of cause carry-on. My advice for everyone: you think you've just got the right amount of clothes? Take out a third. Whenever you heart isn't aching when removing an item you DON'T NEED IT. Roll you clothes it saves space. Wear you heavy winter jacket: I wore a trench coat, my fluffy dressing gown and an outdoor jacket. It works. Also i really, really cried a lot at the airport when leaving and I had too much luggage. One really nice person from British Airways came up to me and I was allowed to check it in for free. Some people really do still have a heart... All the best to everyone moving away/ abroad xoxo

[@rondoflicflac]

Good luck Jadeee

[@ceedeelamb4679]

Can't wait for all your video's this year :) Maybe you could make a morning routine in SF video once you're settled in? :) Have fun there!

[@lunaxxx674]

I'll move to another city bc of uni and ... I'll travel by bus...with 2 **small** (like the stuff you'd be able to have with you in a plane) suitcases :) so I feel you (but atleast I only live 4-5h away from home sooo I can get more stuff when I visit home)

"I should put Folkert in this suitcase"😂😂😂😂😂
