life has been weird lately. i don’t want to go into too much detail about my private mental health struggles, but something i love about vlogging is that it encourages me to seek out every little thing in my life that bring me just the slightest drop of happiness. so this vlog is about a week in my sophomore year at university. adjusting to in person college life, going to class, going to work, trying to figure out how to live.

As someone who attends this school it’s so weird seeing all the places I go to! I actually saw you one day and I was taken aback! What a small world!

[@alleybunnygenius6843]

You should try say hi to her >w>)

[@sparkle0859]

ikr it feels so weird to watch a vlog of a person who goes to the same school as me haha

[@MelinoeAckerman]

You're so lucky!

[@lamb444]

is it hard?

[@imjisooimok6537]

Woah that must be weird

[@thechancellor-]

To the *worthwhile person* seeing this, your dream is not dead. Don’t allow the past and current pains and hurts stop and define you. You’re more than a conqueror. Rise up and put yourself together. Keep pushing your future depends on it. I wish you all the best in life ❤️.

[@stephanyandskylar]

Thank you and to you and everyone else. Dreams do come true. My YT channel has grown over the past few days. I have started vlogmas with my little sister in case anyone wants to watch!

[@madelineheinle4131]

Honestly, thank you so much.

[@gogol2062]

i needed this. thank you and i wish you the best. 💞

[@stephanyandskylar]

@@gogol2062 thank you for supporting our channel! Truly made our day 🤗

[@gayatripranavi]

Needed this. Thankyou

[@laiha_does_art2482]

wacthing studyquill, linh troung, dobochobo, and seeing them reference to each other in videos is just another reminder that influcers are people just like us(but way cooler)😂

[@friedfishh]

Finding joys in everyday life is really important. When things get overwhelming, it helps to focus on these little joys and just savour them. Honestly a lot of the time these little sweet moments are overlooked, which is why it makes me happy that you’re spreading this message hehe. You don’t need to have lots of big dates in the calendar to enjoy life and that’s commonly misunderstood :)

[@arorasaakshi]

yes, this. 💗

[@nadineh4767]

I love this!!

[@Bianca-du2qm]

Trying to remember this because I often find myself only spending time on social media even though it isn’t something I completely enjoy I’m trying to find physical things I like doing that don’t involve social media and enjoy those small moments so thank you for this

[@friedfishh]

@Charis Ng that's why we're the best youtube genre 😌

[@NawalMustafa]

Finding joy in little things is such a valuable practice. It allows us to practice gratitude and live our life more mindfully. Thank you for inspiring us by sharing your experiences!

[@polargirl8094]

Thank you I needed this in my life. I've been having a rough time with high school, applying for college, and dealing with the loss of my grandma. It's really been hitting hard this time of year. This video helped me feel better :) Thank you, glad to see you're doing well

[@ellenv3361]

Hey, fellow high school senior here. You are definitely not alone, I feel the pressure and stress now more than I ever have, and seeing these videos about college makes me nervous about how I’ll adjust… on top of it all, to cope with your grandma’s passing is incredibly hard, and I admire your strength for still keeping your head up! I just wanted to let you know that I hear you, and I wish the best for you as you continue through this year. I’ll keep you in my prayers!

[@rebeccarizoreimer]

Another senior here, I can relate to this on a strangely high level lol, but keep going! Hope you feel even better soon :)

[@ambersulejmani9318]

[@adrienneislost1320]

recently, i've been panicking about school since i'm going into highschool next year and they make you do a "four-year plan" when i don't even have half a clue what my plan is for life and so that really scares me, but i've been watching your videos recently and they really help :) thank you so much, you're one of my favorite people on youtube

[@wilkinsonrg]

Chiqui, don't stress too much about the plan. I moved to a completely different state during my sophomore year, and my whole plan flew out the window since Memphis and Orlando have different systems. Nothing's set in stone, everything's adjustable, and the future will always throw surprises at you, so just buckle up and enjoy the ride. 💛

[@adrienneislost1320]

@@wilkinsonrg thank you, that's very nice of you to say

[@regann7227]

Don't worry about it too much, your interests will change throught highschool and that's normal. Everything will be fine

[@rahmahassaf2275]

You're not alone ❤

[@lamb444]

hey try to take it easy, im currently in college and i still don’t know what i want to do, im just majoring in bio bc i find it interesting

[@raynajcarter]

i really like this video! so many yt people film a week in their life when they're doing fun things, but seeing an actual realistic college week was so refreshing! it's cool that you have a whole cleaning day and routine, i can't wait to do stuff like that in college

[@wanderexe7125]

I can't put to words how much I loved and needed this video. As a fellow UCLA student looking at this let me take a step back and try and enjoy the little too :') so thank you Jasmine

[@leliarhodes7970]

I always love to see you post, Jasmine! I know life is busy and school is keeping you on your toes, but I wanted to let you know how grateful I am every time you upload. You really brighten my day. :)

[@somethingsomewhere509]

OKAY OKAY WAIT i think it’s time to pop the question: what were your thoughts on RED (TV)? because i’m still not over it (i mean, who is 😭) welcome back to our favorite study youtuber!

[@studyquill]

nothing new is one of my new favorite songs hehe

[@hanakotlarova6107]

Honestly, your videos make me feel a lot less depressed about my school life 😂💕 you're awesome

[@batsybear]

my adhd has been whacking me upside the head lately, and the only way for me to get motivation for the day-by-day is to watch other people go through theirs. being in such an online era makes it easy for it to seem like you're alone in your tasks and work, so this helps me a lot. i hope you're doing well, and thank you again ^-^

[@eden3181]

This couldn't have come at a better time I'm not even kidding thank you SO much! 😭💕

[@iterumm]

i just finished my semester yesterday but wow it’s so strange seeing such a big campus !! i go to a small university with ~1000 people so the fact that you guys have multiple libraries is crazy

[@livlikesrides2919]

having fresh flowers in your room can sometimes make all the difference, it’s cool to see that it seems like that’s a priority on your shopping list. happy new year!

[@beatriz2364]

study vlogs when they appear in camera >>>>>> i love your channel so much its been w me since freshmen year in hs and I'm a senior now SJKHKJHSH holding a place in my heart

[@amazingworld1801]

Finally you're back. Hope you're doing well jasmine. Finding joy in little things is a valuable practice. Your vlog was so pleasing to watch. Thank you for sharing it with us! 💖

[@marenclaw]

The editing and the vibe of this video are just so cool I had to watch it twice! :D Your videos are awesome! I always get extra happy when I see a new video from you in the subscription box 😃

[@DemetriPanici]

You hit 1 million congrats!

[@sue-bo5eh]

welcome back jasmine!!! i missed your videos, can't wait to watch this one, I'm sure it'll be calming and motivational :)))

[@RangerRuby]

I love watching your vlogs - they have such a wonderful vibe that is at least slightly different from others I've seen. I also appreciate your honesty on the platform which is something that I don't see too often.

[@iteite9488]

thank you for keeping it so real. it's made me feel understood, and less alone. i always love your videos. sending you all the love!

[@Mymakermovie77]

finding joy in everyday is the best thing you can do for yourself when you are feeling low. Hope it gets better soon

[@lyricswritinggirl]

I think the fact that I absolutely understood your Harry-Styles-like description says a lot about me-

[@tarmac9915]

After a hard, depressive week, your videos makes me feel more peaceful and balanced. Thank you a lot

[@Sofiya-bu9jo]

I'm so happy that you posted and that you are doing better!

[@emmazhang2418]

why was this not recommended?? love this sm jasmine, welcome back!!

[@chocomilks_]

yay a new vlog!! your videos always motivate me so much, and i really needed this coming back from break 💗

[@friedfishh]

5:24 that is very sus :0 they probably just want to look like they’re recycling instead of actually doing the extra work to dispose of the recyclable products differently 😭

[@studyquill]

ugh we hate to see it

[@khalilahd.]

Finding happiness in the little things is what life is all about. I love your content, can’t wait for the next video 😊

[@norjehanagakhan]

Love thisss. It's so satisfying because it features a content creator i deeply admire! Hoping to see more of this ❣

[@taylorking7823]

Ugh college life has been weird lately for me too. I found out six months ago that I have adhd and the coping mechanisms I used to get my school stuff done before knowing have not been working now and I failed my first fall term. But alas, life goes on and I will try harder (especially since I'm on first term probation now lol) next term.

[@kimberlyhoang5191]

2:15 that jump was everything 😂😂💖

[@a.toupikov3722]

Something weird happened with this video - only found it inside Jasmine's sophomore playlist... Edited: I just realized the video is unlisted. It isn't public... That's bizarre. You ok Jasmine?

[@ginnishukla4589]

yes that did happen

[@studyquill]

yeah i'm good! usually i leave videos on unlisted for a while to make sure there isn't anything copyrighted that gets flagged, but i forgot that you can still see them in playlists
