hey everyone i'm hannah and i'm editing this video and i thought it'd be worthwhile to note
why move-in day looks so different this year and why it is so so weird and so so different for me
basically covid sums it up but pretty much we were only allowed to move in ourselves like we
didn't get any help from our parents or anything so that made movement process a lot longer and a
lot more stressful but it's fine and also we all get our own rooms because of covid so that's a plus
what else what else i didn't go to school in the fall so this is my first like actual
move-in day yale did not let sophomores go back to campus in the fall because of covid
so i didn't go to school at all because i didn't want to take online classes
so this is my first semester as a sophomore this was my move-in day it was kind of crazy
and i'm kind of tired still but i think it was i think it was great i think it was really great
and if you are new here my name is hannah i am a sophomore at yale and i study political
science religious studies in spanish and like and subscribe thank you and here's my video it's six
o'clock at night and i've been in my pajamas all day okay so we are packing for move-in excited
and finally we make it to the morning of move-in and i wore this graoufit and i put
on this patagonia because i knew it was going to be cold and yeah i just didn't want to be
too hot or too cold so i don't know but then i braided my hair and it turned out beautifully
actually it turned out like this and yeah i just want to put it up out of the way you know
and we started the morning with a bible study got my bible got my journal and
my devotional book and so i'll see you in a little bit when we're driving there
moving in we gotta take two cars does anyone want to say hi these are my sweet mates kat and amy
and then we're just driving and driving and finally we're so close to new haven
and we go up this little bridge thing and we see new haven and it's so exciting um i love
the drive there for my house also side note we were all together without masks because
we had already spent time together from before move-in day and so then when we got to move-in day
we took a covid test and then we have to go to our suite and then wait for results so
this is us finally arriving at our drop-off area we picked the earliest time to move in and it was
so fun it was actually kind of stressful but yay and so when we got inside we picked up our keys
and we picked up our meals for the first days of our quarantine until we get a negative test result
we had to move all of our stuff and we have this long long looooong hallway so the movers just dropped
the stuff outside of our front door and they're not allowed to go in our room and no one is so
we had to bring all the stuff and i kept running down the hallway and i don't know if i'm gonna get
tired of it or not or i'm just gonna like use it as my own personal workout this hallway my room's
at the end of the hall so it was kind of annoying like dragging all of my stuff down the hall
just back and forth but we got used to it we gotta work out it's okay hello i'm filming on my phone
because i didn't want to get my camera dirty cause i'm sweating
strong now i'm gonna build a little cart so let's see how it goes oh i need a knife i'll be right
back
yea you heard right i have a kitchen cart
and i used it to put my espresso machine on um i love that thing really
but it took a while to set up so i was doing that for a while and setting up a bunch of other things
um but then we ended up putting our snacks on it and it's just like a really cute neat
thing to have i think and my dad got me a little tool box so that was nice it was
made it a lot easier to set up because else i wouldn't have anything to set up with
and then most of it in the beginning looked like sanitizing everything and i basically just put two
clorox wipes down and like walked around with them to clean the floors and stuff um
because i don't i didn't bring like a swiffer or anything
i don't really feel like doing that this is just as easy and i think it works just as well
but this was later after i decorated more so you can kind of see a little bit
i decided to take a lunch break because it was too much it was too crazy these are
meatless meatballs and pasta so it's exciting i'm gonna send a picture to the fam
okay guys i'll have a live review of my first yale meal i don't know if it's real cheese
i didn't melt it all but
it tastes like pasta
let's try the meatless meatballs
it like tastes like good like spices but it's like the texture it's weird
i don't know how i should like design my room like where i should put the desk and like all that
and then we were back at it and i was really confused doing the bed i had my mom's help last
year but i kind of struggled like getting around the bed figuring out how the mattress
like cover goes on so i don't like use the gross mattress that other people used but here's just
a time lapse type video of me putting the mattress cover on so that is so fun so entertaining it was
really a blast when i finally got on because it honestly took me like 20 minutes and then
we were onto the sheets and we put on the fitted sheets i don't know if this is anyone else but i
like doing the like bed covers first because if my bed is like done and made same when i'm making my
room normally it just like makes me feel so much better so i made the bed look all nice and i put
like my pillows my blankets on it and everything like that and then we started doing like actual
decor because i wanted to get that all done and like off the floor first i'm eating a cookie
because
this is taking forever and some of the other decor i did was like put up my paintings
that i did if you look at my community tab i posted a picture of all of them
but i put them up nice and it looks so pretty but i will have dorm tour later and here's my empty
dorm tour so this is my desk and this my giant window is almost the whole size of like my wall
it has a view of another college at yale and right near there is sterling memorial library so it's
pretty and this is my bed obviously you saw me make it just all of my junk on the floor
so i could walk by that but i have to pack unpack it all and my closets right outside of
my room and that's how everyone's closets are their kat's room and then her closet and then
there's amy's closet in her room so it's just like really neat i think it was made for a three
person single and this is our common room at the end of the long hallway and we just have our rug
and our window and then the kitchen cart and our fridge and our microwave but that's all i have
for you thank you guys so much for watching and please like and subscribe
