🐸 facetime

Hi congratulations! And thank you so much for sharing your story. I have been a full time PhD and working part time. I have a question to you - do you ever feel the pressure when you need to get some phd momentum, you have to switch to your office work. I have been experiencing this and it frustrates me a lot .

Love this! You inspire me to get things done!

Lovely video. Thanks Kaelyn. I'm the biggest slacker ever especially when the weather is nice. I just want to be outside enjoying life. You inspire me to get back on track. Although I do wonder if you ever feel constrained by your responsibilities or if you ever deal with fomo on sunny days.

The other thing that really helps me get writing on the page with my PhD is allowing myself to write simply about the "huh, interesting" observations I make in my research, not necessarily coming to a conclusion beyond "that's interesting isn't it" 🥲

I wanted to join the acceptance society group but i couldn't, the website is blocked 😞... Anyways, i love long dissertation diaries ❤❤ i always love to start my day with it , keeps me motivated 💪☺️💕🌸

Great diaries and recapturing the atmosphere of my old university.

It sounded like you have an English accent now after talking to Ali. This is one of my favourite vlogs from the dissertation diaries to date

I actually don't mind when creatives make ad, have affiliate links etc. I just don't like when they put out a whole video that is an ad and looks nothing like their usual content. Like, I don't mind dedicating a few minutes of the video for the ad, or if the ads are done creatively. I've had a youtuber that I follow who usually focuses on finance come out with a full ad on her channel for botox!! No context was given, she never even eluded to the fact that she was considering botox, she just came out straight advertising a botox place, the products, her experience etc and disclaimer in small print. With you, say if you came out one day and had an ad for matcha, coffee, yoga, books, a library, a museum, productivity, ... we would all get it as it is inline with what we have gotten to "know" about you and I for one have no problem purchasing items recommended by people I trust.

Congratulations on this new exciting future!

What can I say… You are amazing!! Firstly, this Vlog felt like an independent film/documentary vibe… I loved the bit when you were contemplating if you should change into your riding clothes, and then the camera cut to you trying them on in your bedroom. I also absolutely loved the choice of music and that sweet, sweet, sweet moment, when Moo climbed onto your chest with that song playing 😢 I also really loved seeing you at work at your new job! It’s one thing to explain it but another thing to see you in action… And I’m so happy for you! What an amazing opportunity for you! 🎉 Lastly, The moments when you stopped and told us how happy you are and how excited you feel that everything is coming together was so, so sweet! You can really tell that you don’t take anything for granted, and I know we all love watching you on this journey, and getting to witness how far you have come! So excited to see more content! ❤

Computer Science certification!!

🐸 I like a mix of both!

🐸i like a mix but the chatty vlogs are a nice change

Kaelyn! Awesome news; I'll watch your Deep Dive interview after I finish this vlog. I'm also looking forward to your Productivity Lab on Sunday! BTW,, is your writing lab open to US viewers, & is there a special link? When I click on accepted society Iink, a "private site" message pops up. Thank you!

What made you make the move to the uk ?

I love these long vlogs! I always look forward to your videos. Can you make a video explaining why you chose this field of study?

Keep Going !! Yes you can do it all ! 👍

My first appearance in a RUclips video and of course I am eating a snack (glad I'm sized less than a centimetre 😅) Some serious plate-spinning skills on display here, see you back in the Writing Group!

🐸 whatever you like! this was nice.

I feel like it is SO me when you said I'm so much better at writing what I intend to do, rather than what I did. I struggle with this all the time (love writing grants and struggle with the manuscripts). Maybe worth exploring these two different, yet related, parts of an academic job!

I love your content and your hair! Would you be able to share how you style/ dye it? Also I’m very excited for your kingdom of ash review, I’m currently on the tandem read ❤

The writing tips were so helpful! Thanks for sharing your setback and what got you over the hump. Valuable!

nothing motivates me quite like a kaelyn apple vlog 😭🙏🏻🤍

🐸 I like a mix of both styles!

If Ali said you are organized than that's a compliment indeed. 😊 Tfs

loved seeing you featured on the financial diet!! the influencing and MLM connection was so interesting. I feel like there's a great comparison to draw between the MLM model and academia, and I'd absolutely watch a video essay of that critique from you! 💞

I am not done with the video yet so I don't know if you touched up on that, but I would love an update of your Notion/organisation tools now with your 9-5 job + PhD 🤍 in case there was any!

I love your cinematography so much! Would you ever consider a video about how you film? Like setting up the shots, different angles, cameras, etc?

I am happy for new opportunities in your life, and so in love with this lifestyle. Also I'm grateful for inspiration to actually create and live it, even part of it. But at the same time, I am aware that behind all of this lies hard work, dedication, persistence, and difficult moments, but at the end it is worth it. Just keep going 💪❤

The strawberry matcha smoothie is utterly inspired 😍

you and Ali look great as a couple ❤

Today is like a fan made ‘Gilmore Girls’ episode but it’s in London.

How well you record everything.....makes me wonder

How well you record everything.....makes me wonder

Your time managment is uncompareable girlll❤wish you best you really motivated me

Thank you so much for this! I just had a meeting with several faculty and while I’ve always thought a PhD was my next step they have pointed me towards a few other options and I have been really bothered by it. I understand what they are saying and why but it was hard to be told that the step you’re “supposed” to take might not be what I’m supposed to take. I appreciate you!

I like both ways. Chatty is fun, but the other is good too. I like to listen to the voiceovers when I am working, I don't look at the screen as often and am able to get a bunch done. 🐸

I did my phd in the UK (full-time) while working full time so it's doable. good luck

Hearty congratulations Kaelyn! ❤❤

YAY KAELYN!!! i'm so moved by your journey <3 all the best queen

🐸! I loved this style!! I would love to see both formats! 🫶🏻

🐸 both have a place so thank you for sharing. Love your channel.

🐸 I loved this style of vlog!

🐸 I like both! I like chats but aesthetic vlogs are also nice :)

Congratulations! It is so important to have things outside of your PhD and to know it isn't what your entire life has to be. I didn't work outside of my PhD. Many of my appointments required that I didn't work additional jobs. However, I was in a lab that didn't do exactly what I was interested in doing but my coadvisors encouraged to pave my own way. During the pandemic, I had to throw out my whole dissertation and make connections to develop new projects. I graduated last month! Its really empowering to know that I had the perseverance to make it through. I see you are doing the same in your own way! Fantastic job Kaelyn!

K, I can’t imagine reading the work and history you are doing, I am black myself and a descendant of slaves (I know there name) and I can barely stand it myself. But what you are doing is valuable! If you don’t write this and if you don’t do this and don’t contribute to the cause and research it gets lose and those who want to bury it will. Thank you for standing strong and getting this done. I hope one day to use it in my cause in as I move forward with nutrition because everything trickles down, it doesn’t stop at the end of slavery. Minorities are still operating with how they were conditioned from years ago.

Thanks so much for this video Kaelyn! I also study History but with International Studies, in Nigeria. This video will help me in my research writing for sure. 😊

So happy for you!!! I can’t help but feel that this is the start of amazing opportunities ❤

🐸 In general, I like both styles! I think there's a place for both within your channel. I do feel that when I was younger I was more partial to the pretty aesthetic videos, and as I get older, these somewhat documentary, candid, semi-unplanned videos feel more authentic than say, a storytime video or a morning/nighttime routine. We're just here hanging out with you, hearing about your day, considering how your habits could impact our own. It's nice to listen along while working or cleaning.
