  • hi everyone!
    I want to say this as a disclaimer but i am not claiming that i have a diagnosed mental illness, nor am i attempting to garner sympathy/attention in any way. i just want to make sure you all see that i am 100% human and still just an 18 year old discovering herself. these ups and downs are entirely normal and nothing to be ashamed of.
    thanks for sticking around, and as always, i'll see you soon! :)

    Thank you christine for opening up your feelings so honestly. I’m also going through the process which makes me feel anxious about my studies and my grades. The fact that everyone have similar feelings is a little help to me cuz it reminds me I’m not alone. I love you, thank you for your kind words and take care!

    hi christine! i thoroughly enjoy hearing about you talking about your college experiences, both good or bad (tldr; include more of these monologue-esque clips!). as a university student, it's refreshing to hear real stories from another university student; we're all in this together!

    I totally understand when you don’t feel 100% and feel ‘eh’ because I went through that during my high school years. But whenever I feel like that, I try to take time for myself to feel better and recharge. Also know that I am here to support all the way. Just know that you’re not alone. Fighting!💪🏻😊❤️Ps. Love you, Christine💕

    It is not uncommon for college to become less exciting once the newness runs off. That is the way real life is after you get use to your new job and you are paying bills for the next 50 years or so. Just consider this a test of reality. When all your Harvard friends graduate with you in three and a half years everyone will be competing against other greats out in the world. Sometimes you lose to a friend of a friend who knows the boss. Life is not fair at all. A lot harder than Harvard. Enjoy your make believe world in Harvard while you can. From a fan of yours and a college graduate of B.S.U. 1983. Surviving the real world providing my own strength. Good luck!

    Love your honesty and transparency here about the "rut" feeling! Even once you get settled in your career, family, etc, the "rut" feeling still comes up here and there. It's a part of growth and can be a good time to self-reflect on all of the GOOD things happening in your life! Maybe the study abroad thing was not supposed to work out with this pandemic 😋 i applaud you so much for keeping it real and sharing your honest experience! You are not alone 🙏

    Hey Christine!
    First of all I’m in 6th grade and German.
    My biggest dream is to go to Harvard. You inspire and motivate me to learn and hold to my dream! I love your videos so much and when I’m not in the mood to learn or just not in good mood I watch your videos and feel so good and motivated. It inspires me that you hold to your dream and make it come true. I MEAN YOU GOT ACCEPTED TO YALE AND HARVARD!!! Without you my grades wouldn’t be so good like they are now! I really love you and your videos and you deserve way more followers and likes! Your just amazing, pretty and my idol!💜💜

    Ugh I love this video so much, things are getting so hectic inside and outside of school it gets so overwhelming and when everyone is feeling the same way in college it makes you feel like you can’t talk to anyone because it’s such a repetitive feeling. But I love how transparent you were, being a student is hard just know you are valid in every thing you feel 😌

    Being disappointed in yourself is actually the worse kind of disappointment... I totally get that, but the fact that we aren't always the "best version of ourselves" also pushes us to surpass ourselves, and it makes us stronger, more resilient, and better at what we do and at how we feel :) That's how we can channel personal disappointment or failure into self-improvement ! That's actually a very positive thing (or at least something I personally find positive) to have high expectations of yourself, if you know how to be kind to yourself and how to turn it into something stimulating, rather than oppressive ! Thank you so much for sharing your experience, it's really comforting to know that many of us are going through the same feats, however silent we might be on that subject, so yeah, thanks for vocalizing it !! xx

    As a non us student- I was wondering whether anyone could fill me in on whether your first year grades actively count towards your degree or if it’s more of a pass/fail situation which allows you to grow throughout the year before having grades that impact your overall degree.

THX !
