I’m a theology student who is also and atheist - one of the main reasons for studying it is to understand something even if you don’t believe in it. how can you know you don’t believe in something without being fully knowledgable about it. Also theology encompasses a lot of different areas, whereas English typically leads you down certain limited roads and Ruby doesn’t seem to be as passionate about EnglishI THINK she abandoned English because it’s what she’d wanted to study at Oxford, and at the time was of the frame of mind that if she couldn’t do English at Oxford, she didn’t want to do it anywhere.
Then the remorse set in.... I’ve wondered why an atheist would ever apply for a theology degree since I started watching her Bit like someone who has horrendous airsickness studying be a pilot...
I agree, I also think it fits with her 'bookworm' aesthetic. When I saw she changed courses, I thought she would actually start doing more content around English literature but she hasn't done much at all on it, and when she talks about books it feels very shallow, she mainly says stuff like "I didn't like this book that much" but doesn't actually explain much about why. Not much in depth thought or critical thinking there. I've never felt she's had a true passion for it.She likes reading which is why she's doing English. I don't feel like she actually likes the analytical aspects of English though, she just wants to read nice stories as escapism.
i agree, I think she has always LOVED reading in the same way others LOVE watching tv, for entertainment rather than analysis. I also think she does want to become an author and the more she reads and analyses texts in an english degree the better she will be able to incorporate ideas in her own writing. I do think religious studies would have been interesting to pursue too as deeper study towards becoming an author. I just think about CS Lewis and JRR Tolkien and their incorporation of religion in their books. tbh, you don’t need to study english to be an author, but I think that is partly why Ruby switchedI agree, I also think it fits with her 'bookworm' aesthetic.

I had a similar thought to this too. I wondered if she just wanted to drag out university for another year as well.I half thought she switched courses because she felt like with RS she didn’t do as well as she wanted so tried english to ensure she graduated with a first (I don’t doubt she’s academic), and part of me though she might have wanted to redo first year to try and make more friends(I don’t follow her closely so don’t know how many uni pals she’s actually got)
I thought this! They're definitely colour graded, and yes I think she must have an editor (it's just such a sharp improvement). I like the change tooher two last videos look very well edited and colour corrected, does she have an editor? or is she experimenting with her editing?
i like the change tbh
Oh my god has she?! I thought her content had dramatically improved, but thought it was herUnjaded jade has an editor so would not surprise me if ruby got one too
