maybe I should fix this hey guys welcome
back to my channel and welcome if you're
new here my name is Elodie and this
channel is The Lod Pod where I make
videos about University and travel and
when I'm at uni as I am currently I do
weekly vlogs about what I do at uni and
what it's like to study at the
University of Cambridge so yeah I hope
you enjoy if you're new and it is a
little bit disorganized and chaotic but
that's basically what Cambridge is so if
you don't like chaos or organized chaos
then you might not like my channel okay
so just got my manicure I just collected
some cash actually this is what I wanted
to vlog for I just kind of have some
cash that my friend sent over from Chile
so that we can book Disney because
basically it was really hard for her to
book it online in Chile and then you
realize cuz we're staying the night
we're not just buying tickets because
we're not just buying tickets there's
actually you have to get a room together
and so you have to do the same booking
okay so you're currently balancing on my
kettle which I haven't used since last
time so it's fine there's no water or
anything in it but it's slightly odd um
but yeah so I'm kind of going to go on
to the Disney lab fat Oh what do I see
the French accent I realize you know
Disney's in Paris so I mean that's
alright so I've got the page saved
actually in my other sister exciting oh
we're sorry your session is timed out
yes I have to go and do that again mmm
take my body I'm going to do my money
thank you for your booking your
reservation number is blah blah
so excited oh my god print this page
yes print this page yes yes yes need to
connect my printer teaming up top
it's not magic already too much
so exciting I can't believe it we have
been planning this planning on and off
for since summer this year excited so
after much faffing I got my test Oh
testa I got my Tesco order and which is
in the fridge now and on the shelves so
I have quite a bit of base foods or
foundation foods in case I need to make
a meal really quickly like rice and
tinned goods such as like tomatoes and
sweet corn chickpeas stuff like that so
I can just make a meal on the go if I
need to or if there's no dome one
evening when I thought there was dome
and I can't get dinner
so that's sorted um and yeah I go I
forgot I'm gonna put a bottle of
Prosecco in the fridge
it's basically you've always got to have
one on hand that you never know if
friends are gonna come round and you
know you might want to have anyways you
might want to have some drinks or you
know you might fancy it one evening with
the boyfriend so okay Prosecco is in the
fridge I'm actually ready I've got my
bag with my work stuff in it and I'm
just gonna go and stress in the library
I find it very difficult to get any work
done at home more specifically writing I
find I can read and make notes quite
well but I just I find it very hard
because home is my fun environment home
is my relaxing environment and it's not
where my brain is capable of studying so
here is a couple of time lapses of me
working my ass off at the last minute at
very unflattering angles enjoy the chins
hello so I'm currently in my body I've
just been doing teeth getting ready for
the gym I found my scrunchie recently
it's really cute
well I mean that's why I stole for my
moment just a girl hi ma'am yeah I think
it's cute to have a high scrunchie
especially someone be on machine so I
kind of have to have a like a flat back
bit of my head to lie down and do
weights and stuff but yeah so I've just
been cooped up I've been I've just done
14 hours of work in two days and this
last seven hours seven seven hours
straight because I didn't do all of that
work and more in the holidays that I
should have done and I've been doing
loads of admin like signing contracts
for working balls and things like that
and yeah now I need to go to the gym I'm
gonna be helping Virginia with her
rowing technique seeing as I have almost
ten years of experience well nine years
of experience rowing and I have at least
2/3 years of coaching for rowing so I'm
can help her out with that and yeah and
then I'm gonna start losing all just
weights which is hidden by black and
baggy clothes at the top so yeah then
why I said that like it was sexy I mean
I need to lose 10 kilos this time before
Disney
my name is probably heard me saying
Disney that's embarrassing anyways I'm
gonna go to the gym oh it was a really
good workout I got I burnt some ink it
was only like 400 calories but then I
did I could 206 calorie warm up yeah
cheffy six can warm up and then and I
gotta get lost my own college yeah my
fault dude it's kind of worn up and then
I did like two hundred calorie half-hour
strength training so it's not bad my
first
back also invited someone to my room and
I'd forgotten this date of my room was
like this that's not unpacked that's a
mess
that's not unpacked that's a mess that
top one's not unpacked that's a mess oh
god how am I gonna have time to do
everything on the positive side of
things I'm just hiding my room currently
at the moment I mean this area is a bit
clear on the floor I don't know because
my friends coming around which is
actually not my college wife because I
proposed to her in a DM because that is
how cool I am
I put my wellies this is the thing
anyways yes so I proposed to her and she
said yeah so she's my college wife now
and she's coming around for a film and
we've got a Tesco delivery yesterday
that's not gonna fit is it yes it is
we've got deliveries yesterday and there
was something missing so I just and the
drive is really nice but every time I
call customer service there's always
something that goes wrong or annoys the
absolute shit out of me or they're
idiots you know like there's always I
just hate calling customer service
unless it's Apple because Apple is
amazing so I just called Tesco and I
said that this item was missing it's
just hair clips and I was like I might I
don't want to call cuz it's only two
pounds fifty bin I thought no you know
what I'm not just gonna give away two
pounds fifty come on the item wasn't
there and I paid for it so I called them
they were like what's your order number
got that in what's your name was your
dress blah blah blah oh sure I'll refund
that straight to you is that all right
I'm so sorry about that sorted two
seconds it was amazing I know I don't
know what Tesco done but the driver was
really nice
the service was incredibly efficient and
on time it was actually early but not
early to the point where it's annoying
and they communicated really well I mean
it was great I didn't get any
substitutes either I think for a first
impression especially when you hear all
these horror stories about home
deliveries horror stories well you know
annoying things about deliveries I'm
thoroughly impressed by Tesco this may
change next next time I buy
something but you know I've lost
something now we will see
that's quite a nice light influence so
Virginia and I had a really nice time
watching films my room is I mean it was
tidier before she arrives but yeah it's
much tied in it was before and that's
all clean stuff it was all us there it
was all dirty plate surfing that's all
clean and organized and looking better
but now I'm going to wear my put my
braces in so I have like this top braces
I have an overnight retainer and I don't
wear often because it's very
uncomfortable and like painful but also
it like when when I'm used to wearing it
and it doesn't hurt because my teeth are
tree lining every two seconds it makes
my mouth open more in the night so I
breathe I don't know I just dries up my
entire throat and it's really not great
but I keep watching videos that I've had
like that I've filmed and edited whilst
I'm editing them I can see my teeth and
they really annoy me so I'm just
watching my videos thing they need to be
fixed though so you can see that I don't
know I feel like these two aren't as
level but whatever and then here this is
a bridge I'm going to put my braces in
and I'll show you the difference it
makes in one night it just completely
changed so we have the yeah cuz I've got
a mock exam tomorrow at 9:30 in the
morning actually I need to check where
that is because I think I know where it
is but I think I know is not the same as
I know so I'm pretty sure it's in
college which means that I can sleep and
just go to it with no preparation
whatsoever
spc one translation from Ann into
Spanish three hours that's gonna be fun
I bet I'll finish in two and a half
hours oh very well and that's not a good
thing or like me saying I'll finish into
half hours and get a good grade if I do
that's epic because with mocks at
Cambridge like my exams aren't till May
/ early June and mid
like yeah May / le drian are Lodi
Cerises my mocks are not till May /
early June
so it's halfway through January and they
want me to have a mock ok I mean it's
good because I could sit there I mean oh
my goodness soon as exams gonna be like
this and then when it comes to revising
and doing my next assignments
I will cater to what the exam is like
and what the marking of the exam has
been like so I'm not worried about that
I just know that's what that's what I
mean basically I'm just being this very
badly and with the list because it's
only January I don't care the only thing
I care about is the feedback so that I
can learn from it so I'm gonna go in
there and sit an exam completely
stress-free
ok so I've taken my braces out and this
is the difference the next morning you
see it's still a bridge and I think if I
had it in for longer it would be
different but it's nowhere near as bad I
mean see if I can put it in the same
light as yesterday like that I mean con
that is not very good that is not bad
for one night eight hours not bad okay
my exam starts in 15 minutes but it's a
five minute walk away so I'll still be 5
min 10 minutes early so yeah
wish me luck okay so my mock went pretty
well
as in it went awful I didn't understand
a word of what the English text was
saying it was a Mark Twain and I've
never read Mark Twain I've heard of him
but I've never ever read anything um so
yeah I had know it at the house going on
there's an expression which was like has
to be a fool as in the fruit pear so I
have no idea what the hell that was
about so I made up my own silly Spanish
expression um and then what else oh yeah
and then the the one that I had to
translate into Spanish
was the Mactan one well as translate
into English osa didn't understand what
the hell was going on I understood I'm
gonna say 95% of the words which is
usually a good thing but I had no clue I
was saying what some wishy-washy
bullshit so I just had to make some
wishy-washy bullshit but I have no idea
if it's correlate so they're wishy-washy
bullshit I had so anyways I'm in the
kitchen I'm just about to make myself
some salmon permits there's two of those
and half of broccoli and some brown rice
because then being a healthy and cool
and then I'm gonna watch some stuff
really quickly watch some YouTube and
then I've got to prepare for my
supervisor here we are cooking up a
storm so we've got some rice in there my
stamina my broccoli and yeah looks like
a nice lunch
I'm currently looking at my dissertation
feedback which has 37 comments that's
nice but I think what I need to do is
basically a lot more work and I need to
take every single point on board and not
be surprised when I'm asked quite a few
questions about all the comments he's
made and any extra and I need to prepare
answers for all these questions and I
think that'll help us sort of realize
what happened here what needs to be
sorted and then just so I know where
we're going because if I waste time not
doing this before my supervision I'm
gonna spend about an hour on this mmm
15 minutes on this then I won't you know
I'll be spending too much time asking
questions that I could have fixed myself
and I recommend people do that
supervisions if their supervisor ever
sends them back feedback before their
actual supervision I think it's very
helpful and it's definitely saved me
time when he's done this before so I'm
just going through comment back comments
and making general overview notes here
and then I put little comments
underneath the ones he's made in writing
so that in the supervision when he says
question comment 5 I can just go to it
and see what we're doing yeah that's
what I'm doing now I got myself a coffee
machine because I'm an idiot that's why
I got myself core machine it's because I
ordered pods that are not the right pods
for Alex's machine so I got those
they're Tassimo pods and they're not
correct so I then I was like just ask
for a refund or send them back or find
someone who just have them and sell them
to them I've always wanted a coffee
machine so this is my Tassimo I feel
like you'd even have put your head and
area because you're in boxing something
right
so very dead okay yes 20 pounds off or
20 years off your first order when does
it expire I don't know because I've got
ludes oh there's a baby money to RTFM
which is read the effing manual I had a
teacher once she was so good she and a
teacher you used to put when you didn't
read the question properly and you just
wrote something awful she used to write
RT of cue and when I first got it I was
like Miss that is so rude and she's like
what do you mean read the full question
Hey
she's good she's good oh we vulgar one
of the two okay do you not open when the
orange cup light is thinking okay this
is my little coffee corner which is next
to my bed and my I guess you'd call it
oh the Americans call it vanity and I
thought that was an English word as well
but no dresser table thing so yeah I
think it's cool although term hasn't
started I've still managed to get like a
week's worth of vlogging in before that
so week one starts tomorrow on Thursday
and that is when week one vlog will be
up is the Thursday after that after the
week has ended obviously the yeah if you
