My main motivation for studying comes from this Lemony Snicket quote: "They say in every library there is a single book that can answer the question that burns like a fire in the mind." - Therefore I feel like the more I study, the closer I am to finding that answer. Great video Ruby

[@aleb6245]

I mean that's just how the story goes

[@skinni_the_P00hBear]

Omg I LOVE Lemony Snicket! Some of my favorite books! 💛💛💛

[@noodlepoodle4213]

Another lemony quote: “I like to think that a library is like an island in a vast sea of ignorance. Particularly if the library is tall and the surrounding area has been flooded.”

[@perks007]

Lol for me it’s the more I study the more I find out how many things I don’t know

[@bobtookthesalt3110]

So, I have do defend the muji pens, for there is one use-case where they are actually the best (but still not worth the hype): At my university you are allowed to take one page of handwritten notes into your exams and there is nothing that can beat the .38 muji pen there. They don't smudge and I can write up to three lines in one grid without losing the ability to read them afterwards. I have been using the .4 Pilot G-TEC-C4 before and mujis are simply a bit better.

[@ninamarie177]

I don’t know if they still do them, but Muji used to offer a .25 mm gel pen that is even better for those handwritten Formular sheets as they’re noticeably thinner than the .38 mm ones.

[@FlyingElectra]

I love the .38 muji pen. I use them all the time.

[@elizabethrimmer9308]

Have you tried the 0.38 pilot G2? It doesn't skip at all like the G-TECs and it's also very fine. Super basic, I know, but it's also a great option that's commonly available.

[@funcisco]

Really? I've been a devote Muji fan but I recently discovered the G-Tec-C4 and honestly I'm hooked. I feel like I can just write faster with it.

[@elizabethrimmer9308]

@@funcisco Maybe it's just an issue I had; I also often switched between writing in script for notes and in print for equations so that might have contributed to it not working well for me.

[@agnietevebraite9375]

For mildliners: I don't think they are overhyped at all too. The colours are beautiful and i had them for almost 3 years (the same ones) and only after 3 years they stopped working, however, I should mention that i was using them daily for taking notes and doodles in my bullet journal. Honestly, if I had to select only one markers to have for the rest of my life, mildliners would be my first choice!

[@NishaChhetri]

Mine finished after a few months and I didn’t even use them much 😅

[@bloodonmytongue5408]

[@hongyeetay8496]

@@NishaChhetri omg samee and everytime I buy the same thing happens!!! I feel that it is too expensive and not good because the tip is super hard and not even good for highlighting:(( it keeps on bleeding when on paper for some reason😭😭😭😭

[@tina9866]

I also really like them but because they are only available on Amazon and are shipped from I think it was Japan, it did hurt a lot to pay so much for shipping and also on top of that an additional 15€ for oversea shipping. Shipping nearly did cost as much as the mildliners themselves. So although I really do like them a lot and I use them everyday (for me they are nearly everything I could want in a highlighter) I probably wouldn't buy them again. But if I could purchase them here in a shop I would definitely buy them again. I have been using mine now for 3 months and I do hope that they will last.

[@jamieraintree]

I LOOOOOOVE my Remarkable. I’ve had mine for almost 4 years and I couldn’t live without it. I like that I can’t do anything but write on it. I appreciate that it’s “off the grid” during a time when we’re constantly surrounded by tech. I feel like I can be more creative. Plus, I can easily store all my school notes.

[@RubyGranger8]

I am becoming more and more obsessed with mine! It just doesn't feel like technology at all and you're right about it letting you be more creative... I've been using it for creative writing and just love it. Do you use the feature which lets you convert your handwriting to typed words? I haven't but was wondering if that's something you ever found useful? x

[@jamieraintree]

@@RubyGranger8 Yes, I do use it! The main reason I got the Remarkable is because I like to write fiction by hand but hate having to retype it all. It’s not always a perfect match but you write much neater than I do, so I bet it would work better for you. I also write in cursive most of the time and it even does about 95% correct conversion with my cursive.

[@anitawalter614]

Oh yesssss

[@TinaTissue28]

The Remarkable reminds me of using an iPod or DAPs. Like you want to listen to music without being distracted by notifications

[@eusou.lian.]

I am getting convinced. I like the way that it limits me to reading, annotating and writing. But I love colors too.

[@annapavone2066]

I'm 32 and I *finally* just started university - psychology! So my motivation to study is that I want to be the change I'd like to see in the world and give back all the good psychologists gave me during all these years :) (I was convinced I did not need the Remarkable but now I'm not so sure, it looks so pretty and useful! I like that it has no notifications nor other distracting features as well, it's starting to look way too tempting)

[@afkjasmine1649]

its worth it!

[@StormyKathryn]

good luck on your course :)

[@florentinedomroes9217]

I had it but it wasn’t worth it for me for the price

[@jobeyy]

good luck! i hope you will do well

[@m_j7955]

The thing about the notifications is that you can turn off notifications while studying if you don’t want them, for example all apple products on mostly recent updates have Do Not Disturb mode the remarkable does one less thing than what the iPad can do so would justify that price point even less

[@Sophia-cd2ci]

Just incase someone was looking for a cheaper alternative to the Remarkable - I was looking into buying a Remarkable (because it honestly seems incredible), but the price was just so far out of my budget it was almost laughable. I ended up getting something called a Boox. They have few different models, some of which cost the same as a Remarkable but some that cost hundreds of dollars less. I got their cheapest one, which is obviously less advanced than the more recent/expensive models, but all of the key selling features remain the same (it feels like paper and basically functions as an e-book - e-notebook combo). I've been using it for over a year now for both reading and writing and I really do love it. My only critic is how easily worn out the pen nibs are. I am quite a heavy writer, but the pad comes with multiple spare nibs, which suggests to me that they are expected to be worn down.

[@reinstate317]

thank you actually!

[@MildExplosion]

You're a lifesaver!

[@user-jd6cb1wg4k]

Oh, thank you for advice!

[@xafir2816]

I totally agree with you. All of those things are nice to have but when it comes down to it the only thing you need is a laptop. I personally prefer the MacBook (had another computer before) but I believe it is very much dependent on your preferences and your other devices. :)

[@RubyGranger8]

It's so easy to get caught up thinking that we need all of these things to study (and I'm not going to pretend I'm not guilty of that because, as you can see, I have a lot of these products) -- but hard work, focus and motivation (plus a laptop) is what you really need x

[@kristin123a]

Exactly. As time went on I even got rid of more and more as a student. I stopped using special paper or notebooks and used plain, the cheapest I could find, notebooks. During my time as a student the biggest game changer was an extra monitor to use with my laptop when writing at home. Buying a good keyboard and mouse can also make a huge difference. Getting those documents up on a bigger screen makes a huge difference and doing research online is more efficient and a monitor doesn't have to be expensive at all.

[@MS-19]

Fundamentally, if writing on paper is your thing, why not simply write on paper? I love to sketch on real paper, loose and notebooks, for there's something about it that feels in touch with artists and students of yore. That being said, it's useful to have your appraisals of these products, Ruby. Hopefully there'll be students and professionals who'll find this helpful!

[@MysticOceanDollies]

It depends I guess. For some people it’s storage. I personally prefer writing on actual paper, and most of my notes are on actual paper notebooks, but some classes utilize power points and I find it easier to download them unto my iPad, annotate them there, then rewrite them on paper. I also use the iPad instead of a notebook on classes that are not very extensive in note taking and may require me to move info around, but any major studying has me rewrite them on actual paper as nothing really beats the feel of real paper for me. It’s also satisfying to flip through all my notes at the end of the semester.

[@motographerrr]

i think that for some people it's just the fact that you can always have your info on you but also the environmental side of preserving trees and production waste. on the other side, you can always recycle paper so i personally also dont really see the hype esp if you dont have the money for the tablets

[@helantopia]

because if I loose my notes they are useless + carrying thick binders of paper with you everywhere hurts my back

[@kd1330]

For me it's like, I go through so many notebooks that it almost feels illegal??? Like, I feel bad for essentially wasting so much paper, that this does seem like a great alternative

[@helantopia]

@@kd1330 same with real paper I‘m always scared to write big because it feels like a waste of paper and I also never find the stuff I wrote again 😅

[@kerimendez4900]

My main motivation for studying is myself, learning, and the fact that by studying I can expand my knowledge infinitely. I am still in middle school but I have found such a joy for learning. I know that when I am older, I really want to be a doctor and it brings me so much joy helping others like my siblings love to study and learn. When I study further, I learn so much more than I would have and overall, I feel really proud of myself. I love being a role model for others and helping people around me. Ever since I have watched your channel you have motivated me so much and have been a really big role model. I love your style and you have really helped me build my confidence. I hope you see this and have a happy holidays! Thank you!

[@AshleyGrace_]

My motivation for studying is purely learning as much as I can about any subject. I find it so invigorating when I can adapt what I have learnt to my daily life and being able to sit in an exam knowing every single question because I was so intrigued by everything I have just consumed from studying. Personally I have dyslexia which can make study really challenging sometimes. However over coming those difficulties and seeing my full potential makes studying all that more satisfying. Ultimately I feel that given the opportunity to study is such a privilege, so I want to ensure that I make the most of every second :)

[@manaseetelaang328]

My motivation for studying: I am a medical student and I want to be able to save lives of the people whose loved ones put their trust in me.

[@goodguy7416]

Edit: My motivation to study comes from me wanting to push myself intellectually and grow as a person. Throughout these past few years, as I have been in University, I feel as though I have drastically changed in terms of the way in which I think about things and thus, have become a more confident version of myself. Through studying, I hope to facilitate this growth in both areas of my life. P.S. I am sorry for not inserting this comment earlier. This is something that I wanted to reflect upon as I was studying so that I could give a genuine answer to your question. Even if I don't win the giveaway, I feel as though this question has allowed me to view things in a different light, and for that I am thankful. I love this video!! I have always been curious as to what products you use, and I appreciate that you have decided to give an honest review of them. I would love to see a similar video regarding study techniques such as the Pomodoro, active recall, and so on. I hope that all is well, and thanks again for another wonderful video!

[@RubyGranger8]

That's such a good video idea! I can definitely film that in the new year! Because there are definitely study methods (like Pomodoro) which I don't like at all x

[@goodguy7416]

@@RubyGranger8 I am glad that you are considering filming it! I think that it could be a useful video to introduce people to basic studying techniques and show them the pros and cons of each one (like you did with this video). Personally, I find the Pomodoro technique useful depending on the task that I am doing. For instance, I find it useful for reading assignments, but I don't like using it when I am writing essays.

[@ananya1552]

The giveaway question was so personal to me because I never needed a reason to study, I did it because I had exams and it was part of the system. But now I realize the importance of having motivation so I thought long and hard about it a few weeks ago, and my motivation is just knowing stuff. So many people spent a huge chunk of their lives to find the answer to a questions, to do research. So many people have written their advice and life experiences in books and papers. There is infinite amount knowledge we can get get and educate ourselves. And this very knowledge is such a gift, once you make it yours no one can take it away from you! it can be used to improve lives, help others, improve the environment, discover and invent new things and so much more. For me studying has always been a chore which I dread, but while writing this I realize how much I actually enjoy the process. I love learning just for the sake of it, to feed my curious mind and help it to grow. Learning really does bring us joy. I've always disliked the idea of doing something so you can capitalize it later instead of truly enjoying the process. I hope that this fire for learning always grows in all us! edit- I have a tip for all those who want to have digital handwritten notes without an iPad, you can use a graphic tablet which is soo much cheaper and you can connect it to your laptop without having to look down straining your neck. I can't recommend it enough! it is such a good alternative 😄 you can also use it for art

My main motivation for studying learning, understanding and connecting as much knowledge and ideas as i can! I have always been very curious, doing my own research on topics i find interesting. And what i enjoy the most is when i finally understand a subject deeply enough to see the correlations between different topics, how you get from point A to point B, and eventually, have my own ideas and relate them to the content i know! It's always so exciting to make a deduction or a reasoning and see that you are right, that you have connected the info properly!

That's what studying can do, bring possibilities. No matter what you study, it can truly open doors for us.

A tip for some people that are planning to get a laptop because your school/university requires it but still wants to write notes by hand and draw you can always buy a laptop that has touch screen and if it doesn’t have a pen included you can buy a stylus or something similar to the Apple Pencil as a alternative

[@dylan-jaymonk4679]

My main motivation for studying is enjoying what I do! Learning brings me so much joy and I love learning about things that I'm interested about!

[@elianazielke6082]

Your voice is literally soooo soothing!!!!!

[@morbidleaf]

My main motivation for studying is so that I can build a better future for myself-- not only open doors, but to grow as a person and use this growth to live a happy, focused life. I've found that studying in any form-- whether it be studying for a university test, studying a language or studying a book in more depth, I always learn something new and think about the world in different perspectives and it is such a lovely feeling. You've also helped me appreciate it a lot more and I truly enjoy the person I am when I am studying. Thanks for this giveaway and loved the video!

[@aleinafuentes6775]

My main motivation for studying is to reward myself after a long time of study and also giving me breaks :) I love your videos so much and your planner is so cute and amazing!! :)

[@mvvgbl]

Ruby Granger, you really inspire my daily routine. I light a candle every day before studying as a ritual. I love your videos and I hope you can be a very successful person in all aspects.

[@stellaemortis]

Lovely video as always! My main motivation to study is literally just learning new things that help me to progress as a person. I think a lot of people feel this way and personally, I haven't found anything else (yet?) that increases the quality of my life as much as being creative & expanding my knowlgede does :)

[@IKEMENOsakaman]

Thanks, Ruby! I like the "off the grid" too!

[@AmiNa-sf9mu]

I really like your honesty about this supplies and pleas do how to take digital notes on ipad ❤️❤️

[@lysandref7793]

Hi Ruby ! Thank you for those useful tips and for your videos. I've been lurking on your channel for quite a while and I really appreciate how kind hearted and well thought your content is. Even though studying can be hard at times when moral is low, the one thing that keeps me going is what I think of as my vocation. I've always dreamt of becoming a teacher some day, as I feel like it's one of the most beautiful job in the world, and I'm getting very close of achieving that dream this year!! Studying and going to university allow me to explore concepts and ideas that I would love to share with pupils later on. It brings me closer to my life goal and passion everyday. I feel very grateful for being allowed to receive an education and I kind of feel like I want to give some of it back!

my main motivation for studying is knowing that if i work hard and put in the effort i'll be able to help so many people with my knowledge (i want to be a neuroscientist) just knowing that i could be the reason someone gets to live their life is so so motivating and i love it 💓

[@user-ty3fd4iw6s]

I absolutely love your videos! I would say that my motivation for studying is a better lifestyle and plus i think knowledge is powerful.

[@Leiasdigitaldiary]

My motivation comes from seeing people who aren't able to do so and really realising what a privilege education is and how life-changing it can be. I've always had a passion for helping people even with the smallest things and I believe knowledge is always a step in the right direction

[@dillonpark7262]

As a long-time fan, I think it would be super to have a study planner autographed by you. Also, this was a very informational video of the study aids you use. With so much information available in so many formats, it’s vital to access and store info quickly and efficiently.

[@mcl3066]

I have a product on my screen similar to the paper like, just a matte screen protection from amazon, was a fiver, 6x cheaper…. But i noticed my pencil tip had worn down to the point where my pencil stopped working, after what i can say was about 1 year of ‘light to medium’ use, so if you’re a heavy sturdier, maybe stock up on tips or get a tip cover etc if you want a matte screen protector.

15:47 You literally just transported me to my childhood. The nostalgia!

[@noodles.dumplings.kimchi2878]

I like the crayola super tips also as a highlighter and for doodles.

[@tanishadhillon3185]

First of all, I just wanted to say what a great inspiration you have been in my studying journey, I am currently in high school and the main source of my motivation comes from my surrounding, I live in a third world country where education is not spread out equally hence I am so grateful to have a huge privilege and therefore won't take it for granted.

[@charlottephillips8093]

Hi Ruby, my main motivation for studying is knowing how much I will get out of my degree and the pleasure of getting a great end of year grade! Thanks for the video :)

[@classicguava7524]

My motivation for studying: "It always seems impossible, until it's done" - Nelson Mandela I absolutely love this quote because it reminds me that if I am having trouble doing certain schoolwork, or finishing homework, I know that it has been done, so I will be able to find an answer and work through it

[@kristinamarieoo]

My motivation for studying comes from my need to always want to learn. I love reading and learning, so whenever I study about a subject and class I’m interested in, it makes the studying go by so much faster. I’ve learned to turn studying into something enjoyable versus something that I dread doing for exams. There is nothing more satisfying than diving into a subject or class, studying really hard, and seeing amazing educational outcomes. It makes it all worth it. I love your videos Ruby, thank you!

[@yazeedcoovadia551]

My main motivation for studying is your videos, like most of the time I will use a study with me video of yours to get a little motivation to do my work and it goes a long way to allow me to achieve my study goals

[@Ali.walmsley]

Loved this video Ruby!! My motivation for studying has to be myself. I want to make myself proud of how far I’ve accomplished, also being born at 25weeks old I’m also at a miracle baby so the fact that I’m alive is almost enough motivation to try my best too! 🤍🤍❄️

[@khadijafayyaz6184]

❤❤❤ I love this comment!

[@mailencanan618]

congratulations ruby on the new agenda it is beautiful. and i really like the video.

[@sonamc7723]

Absolutely this content is gonna be amazing!!

[@dianewalker9154]

I have a Kanken and a Kanken mini. Use the as purses. Last forever. Holds a lot. LOVE THEM! ❤️🎒❤️

[@mysnailmail]

My motivation for studying is honestly going to university. I know how much I love learning and how much pleasure it gives me, so getting into a good university where I can learn so much about the things I love is my goal. This really helps me to get through the not so fun highschool parts

[@ektamourya4406]

Thankyou Ruby! I love your reviews and would love to see more such videos. ❤️

[@leighahb6254]

Before college, my main motivation was just that I love learning so much, but now that I have a specific career in mind my main motivation for studying is to achieve my goal of becoming a journalist! Though I am a student journalist already, I want nothing more than to work at a local paper. I love the idea of community journalism and reporting on all the niche stories of people, events, and happenings within a community. Journalism is a job where I get to continue researching and learning everyday while telling people's stories and being a voice for the community.

[@lil_frankenfine]

Thanks for doing this! I was contemplating getting an iPad vs a ReMarkable, but I ended up getting an iPad bc of the price vs what you can do on it. I just put my iPad on Do Not Disturb and I don’t get notifications :)

[@moodyowl]

My main motivation for studying is getting inspired by what I learn. Especially when the subjects I study are related to the things that I'm passionate about! And secondly, I love how learning expands my world view and helps me bring explanations to what's happening out there in the real world :)

[@dens_franco]

I love your videos so muchh Ruby! Always so genuine and honest. Been a viewer since 2018 (is that rightt??) You're so inspiringg! Keep going 💛

[@sarahreads4]

O my god. I am going to start my college this fall. And this video literally saved me. I needed this kind of details about some of the study materials and this video have done the best for me. wow.. thank you sooooo much..🥰🥰

[@NightshadeTarot]

I’m back to uni again after 10 years and my view of studying is quite different from what it was before. I’ve always been a curious child but I’m learning to appreciate it more and more as a virtue. So my motivation for studying is nurturing my own curiosity, the learning process itself, knowing more about how the world and everything in it works, it’s just never ending and makes me happy to think there will always be something new I can learn, and that no new knowledge is useless. Also - I got myself a Kanken for uni after watching your video and I’m really pleased with it! 🎒

[@blabarsris6012]

I love my fjällräven backpack in the räven model because it has tons of pockets and is very comfortable to wear

[@sumayyahkhan8897]
