    Maybe you don’t realize it but you have no idea how your (reading) vlogs are fun and comforting to watch. It’s like being invited in a cozy bubble and it’s awesome. And the fact that it’s sometimes chaotic and disorganized adds to all this. It gives it a very distinct atmosphere and identity to your footage that I personally love.
    So, if sometimes you hesitate vlogging because you fear it’ll be “contentless”, don’t. As far as I am concerned it’s always a pleasure to watch.

    I totally second what you said about the US education system. A quote that has always stuck with me was from my AP psych teacher in high school was "school steals your joy of reading." They were totally right - Prior to high school and college, I routinely read multiple and varied types of books and it was my biggest hobby growing up. Now I am 24 with a masters and JUST NOW getting back into reading for fun. It's still such a struggle to focus on books, but watching your channel has been such a fun ride and inspiration.
