I say good on her for having it done 💃🎊 I didn't expect she'd be able to with how she looked in her vlogs... it looked like she was headed for a nervous breakdown.

7 drafts of her UG dissertation is nearly the same number of words as my eventual PhD Thesis (80,000). Good Lord, Measles Mumps and Rubella, that is not the way to do it.

Ruby has zero confidence in herself as a writer AND she puts a ridiculous amount of pressure on herself, only a high first is good enough for her. All of that and a malnourished brain in a starving body = not a good look!

Ruby Granger would definitely by bullied/ostracised by most of her peers for her sense of superiority, unfortunate dress sense and sanctimonious attitude
I am very surprised nobody bullied her out of her attitude during high school--- her peers even made her head girl lol

If she had gone to a comprehensive or even grammar school,her high school years would be very different

Why eat an actual chocolate egg for once, when you have the opportunity to showcase how very little you eat by just using flavoured fucking water for your half-portion of porridge? Oh and don’t forget beetroot and other weight-loss aids!

Nooo, what is with these bizarre porridge flavours? She's got to stop putting peas and teabags into her oats! On the topic of creme eggs, I saw that they have a ridiculous amount of sugar even by Easter chocolate standards - like 30% of your RDI - so I understand why people might want to avoid them for health reasons, but omg that's no excuse for this watery tea porridge mess.

And it's gifted again. Burn & Bend must be wasting so much of their stock on Rootabix because you see their teas at least 1x a day on her social media and it's always gifted.

That‘s like five teaspoons of "food". What the fuck. Like. I often eat smaller portions than normal due to my own issues, but THAT is utterly ridiculous.

She's been back home a couple of weeks and already half her content is her playing dress-up in her yard like a deranged child. The only trip she's taking in her gap year is off the deep end.

Can't wait to see the Mad Bertha inspired outfit. 🥰

I can't get over how in her Deadline Season video, at the end she says "...and to subsidise that, I'm going to set some timers on my phone..."

The word subsidise makes absolutely no sense in this context, what the actual fuck goes through her head when she throws these words out :unsure:

I also love when she changes her mind about the layout of her Notion page an instant after adding something, then says, "Retrospectively, I'm going to change this."

I'd give anything to have been a fly on the wall during her seminars, when she was trying to impress her lecturers by vomiting misused intelligent-sounding words all over the place.

It reminds me of the scene in Good Will Hunting, when Ben Affleck is misusing a tonne of words trying to sound smart while posing as his genius friend Will:



I'm pretty sure Ruby has misused some of those exact same words, too.

I doubt she'll miss Exeter at all, has she even spent time there? She kept wandering around the old parts of the uni and pretended to be in Oxford. I haven't witnessed her making the most of Exeter once, she's been either back at home or rarely in London whenever she got the chance. Ruby's shedding tears because she'll no longer have the student blanket over her fuck ups.

(I've been following PaigeY since her first exam result and acceptance video, she loves Cambridge, she asked her company to transfer her to their Cambridge office. She's found a flat with her uni friends and now she's working and living there as an adult with a job. Relocating is quite easy if you don't have a partner or kids with steady jobs/schools. Ruby just wants to play boarding school until she's old and grey.)

Which uni-friends did she move in with, do you know? I remember Ed and Astrid from her vlogs. I haven't watched her in some time, though. For some reason her work life isn't as interesting to me.

Oh and I have been asking this before but if anyone knows why PaigeY's friend Astrid Francizska deleted her youtube and insta let me know. I used to watch her lots back in the day.

Tbh Marfa looks like she did a better job with matching to the outfit theme compared to poor Ruby in her school summer dress. In that pic posted a couple of pages ago, it looks like Marfa is babysitting Ruby and taking her on a day out!

I watched Ruby's recent video and I'm just wondering what she was actually doing with her dissertation and it felt that it was just a lot of busywork. Or she was trying to find a coherent argument in her dissertation that seems to be a mishmash of ideas? I didn't do that much faffing around with mine at the end though I did get my partner and my friend with master's degrees to look over it for me as I'm just very dyslexic but it was ready to go pretty much other than that. Is she going to rewrite it again? I'm thinking that she is floundering a lot now, stretching it out as either the dissertation is a mess or she is stretching out her time as a student for it being her last assignment? I do wonder how close to the deadline Ruby hands in things, I feel she hands things in things last minute, like an hour before it's due (five minutes was my record admittedly!)

What if she does get a first? I’ve realised I must be a horrible person because I don’t want her to. How awful is that?

She did get a comfortable first in 2nd year and a first in 1st year too (I think). She does go to a reputable uni too. The only reason I can think of why she is floundering so much with her diss and could potentially fail is because of her ED brain rot

Speaking of, I just searched up her first year results video to confirm and the contrast between her skin/complexion/hair from then to now is absolutely shocking.. I didn't even realise she had gotten that bad. I really hope she gets help before she crashes and burns spectacularly

If i remember correctly she used to claim she had something called 'clinical perfectionism' when she was a teenager. She also had an exemption from handwriting exams due to a medical problem, she claimed in a livestream once back then that she took an exam and the paper was covered in blood and coudnt be corrected because the way she writes and holds a pencil makes her hand bleed. So she definitely has some disorder.. Maybe OCD?

Around that time she went to a therapist (while she was in A levels I think) because she was afraid to be in the house alone and afraid of growing up. I guess her parents decided to send her to therapy because they knew she would have to move out for uni. Other than that I think she mentioned going to therapy a year or two ago for a 12 week stint or something? I wouldnt be surprised if shes still in therapy now but just keeping it private.

I really doubt she's in therapy now, she's spiraling. I'm pretty sure a decent therapist would've suggested inpatient by now. Also, she handwrites everything so how does that make sense?
