Graduate Diaries | Figuiring out what to do after Uni

Hello everyone! We haven't really talked about how confusing life after university and adulting can be. I wanted to document this weird period in my life, trying to figure out what do *for the rest of my life*, so say hello to the ✨ Graduate Diaries✨

If you're interested in any items from my apartment:

WHO AM I?
My name is Madeleine or Maddie for short. I'm a 22-year-old graduate living in London. I make videos about adulting, productivity, lifestyle and London life.

As a fairly new graduate as well I relate to this series so much. Just take it one day at a time and follow your heart (as cheesy as it sounds I find that it’s true) find new hobbies, make new memories and find new ways to continue sharpening your mind. Love going on this journey with you because this series has been so helpful ❤

ah I love this! I recently just finished my master's at ucl and before then I went straight from undergrad so im really feeling this. been applying/interviewing for jobs and really just trying to plan out what's next in my life can be daunting yet exciting at the same time. the jump from student life to the "real world" definitely needs to be talked about more often :)

As new graduate myself in bus/acct, this was really so nice to listen to. Finding a new meaning of success, what really fulfills me in life, and finding purpose has been a very interesting journey after having my whole life so far be defined as being a student. Good luck with your journey! Thanks for the great advice and content!

Hi Maddie! I just wanted to say, I saw a short from you a month ago maybe (?) and I instantly clicked "subscribe". I've been watching your longer format videos as well and I feel like you have a lot of potential. You just connect with people really easily. I specially like your approach to shorter format videos, I feel like they're so calming and fresh compared to what we are used to from short form content. So keep going girl, I can't wait to see your numbers take off!🚀

Loved this video Maddie!! It’s nice to see how transparent you are about this topic! You’ve been killing it on social media, it’s exciting to see you’ve been doing projects like that documentary like whatttt hahah! good luck!!

[Flutetastic.]

Love your videos Maddie!
You are very organised, I don't know how you do it!😊

[elisazouza]

this is so wholesomeee!!! i'm a recent graduate and im really passionate about youtube, it's interesting that you're doing a content day because i'm doing that tomorrow to get me back into it!

[dontmindthisacc]

I was literally thinking of what to do in the future as well, I am an upcoming high school student and I am pretty worried of what's gonna happen for the next chapter of my life. I came across this video ad seemed really interesting! Thank you for making this video!!

[emmabarolin]

loved this vlog sm!! so interesting to see how you spend your time these days :) i also graduated last year, but just went straight into a master's, i guess partly to avoid this hah, but this is super cool to see as well <3

As someone who is about to graduate, I feel the same way. I have a grad position but the company is notoriously known for its toxic work culture and I already feel it.

Come to the US -- specifically NYC -- for an even better bagel experience 😉🗽 But seriously -- lachs + cream cheese + bagel = an award-winning combination 🤤

I love your vibe! I found you through the short you posted a couple days ago so i guess the event worked lollll. If you're going harder at this content route I would really encourage you to make an introductory video explaining your trajectory on youtube/social media or in life in general, something that could work as a channel trailer for example and but also a chance to go back to the videos you were making 8 years ago. I've seen that you're making a Q&A on your IG stories and on the community tab so you're ofc well ahead of me lol, you're the pro at this after all hahahaha

I'm in a similar place of being in an "exploratory" mood. I don't have the luxury of making it a whole year endeavor while being on my own but I've been lucky to have a light workload my past couple of years of uni while living with my parents (although i'll that it's only a half blessing, considering it had the whole COVID situation in between and my family situation) and I've been on that zone for a while already since I finished my degree this summer. I'm a bit paralyzed in my day to day though and I have the constant nagging feeling that my "exploration" edges too much on the "content consumption" side of things and I'm not sure as to what extent that's an appropriate thing that's helpful in me achieving which goals (and if those are goals worth pursuing in the first place)

I subscribed and thought you were American....SO SORRY!!!! Your English is exceptional. Many northern Americans have this thing in their speach about the letter T.... When they say the word "button" the T is actuated.... It's like a double T. Anyway hope you enjoy London. Magnificent city...lots of history... Been there many times.

Where did you get your sofa? It looks so comfy!!😊😊

[ellie__swan]

loved this! one question, how do you get the audio so nice on the clips where you‘re walking outside? :))

[emmy_bce]

I graduate in two months and, honestly, I’m terrified 😩

[taylorswizzzle]

You could do a podcast that would be so goood

Move to the US to do post-grad at The Wharton School at Penn. Then move to Silicon Valley and pester various VC funds for capital. Get the company set up. Boom, you're a billionaire 30 under 30.

Heyyy Maddie What’s the documentary called? I want to watch anything with my fav YouTuber in it! How did the presentation go? I feel like you would make an amazing teacher. I know I would learn a lot!! You and Theo have a great week!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
