She heard it pronounced in both ways! :')I'd definitely want a kettle in my room if it was allowed but I believe she said she forgot to bring her teapot, not kettle.
Of course she has a seasonal phone case with books and pumpkinsView attachment 2488546

Just in case anyone was wondering, it appears her kettle cost £50. My £8 wilko basics uni served me well through over 5 years of university before I melted the cord ...View attachment 2488546

At Oxford you are allowed to bring a kettle but it must be fitted with an automatic cut-out, however to get one Ruby will have needed to have filled out the Electrical Appliances Registration Form and got it signed by the college authorities.I always thought you weren’t allowed kettles in halls …
That's no kettle, that's a water tank which she'll fill with lye to help dispose of the bodies of whichever lecturers give her a bad grade.View attachment 2488546

I think a lot of it is also that she is scared to finished education. Her whole persona is based off of education and being at school so when that finishes she essentially looses part of her personality. She also enjoys getting to be immature and have people to look up to, which is far easier to do in education than a job. She is good academically and enjoys the praise and feeling like she is on top. She has already tried "work" in the form of her first book, and then obviously had a subsequent book rejected from publishers. I think she is scared to face the reality of no longer being the smartest/top of the class and have to essentially just become average and one of many employees all on the same level. She will probably end up working part time in a school trying to live vicariously through students, while using chat GPT to write her next literary masterpieceMy hot take on all of this. I believe Ruby isn't there for the Masters. She just wants to live out the aesthetic of being at Oxford. Shes gonna get through Masters there, get at least a pass grade and go on this rant about how "grades aren't everything" and then talk about how she was "so thankful to have the opportunity to study there" it's all to live out her 'Hermoine Granger Lifestyle'.
By the way, off topic, I passed my Masters with a merit so I am buzzing right now.
I feel like this is the same at other unis as well, but tbf to her I doubt many people follow those rules. I had a mini fridge and fairy lights in my uni room both of which "weren't allowed"At Oxford you are allowed to bring a kettle but it must be fitted with an automatic cut-out, however to get one Ruby will have needed to have filled out the Electrical Appliances Registration Form and got it signed by the college authorities.

At Bath University they say that you must not bring a kettle to the university accommodation because of their health, safety and fire guidance. It also says that as a university they do provide these and other electrical appliances and make sure that they meet the latest safety standards.I feel like this is the same at other unis as well, but tbf to her I doubt many people follow those rules. I had a mini fridge and fairy lights in my uni room both of which "weren't allowed"
Then again I wasn't filming everything and shoving it on the Internet so
[insert joke about her needing Jesus]I am curious why she chose Jesus. I assume many other colleges also offer less competitive literature programs, and she could find even more aesthetically pleasing/older accommodation with some of them.
Same for me. In first year people had heated clothes airers, air fryers, toasters, kettles, mini-fridges - anything really. You just put the stuff in a bag and hide it in a cupboard or the back of a wardrobe when they give notice of a room inspection.I feel like this is the same at other unis as well, but tbf to her I doubt many people follow those rules.

Whyyy it can’t be THAT bad! I don’t get itI know this isn't new, but she was absolutely struggling to hold back tears at the end of that video.
