day in my life at yale university

Here is a typical day in my life at Yale, where I am a rising junior. I am a history major and love filming college content with my friends on YouTube, so I thought I’d show a condensed day in my life here as well :)

1. I start the day off around 8-8:30 am, and get ready to go to my first class. I prefer morning classes so I usually have 2-3 morning classes, with some afternoon classes depending on the day. In total, I took 5 classes this past semester (2 political science classes, 1 history, 1 psychology, and 1 anthropology class). My favorite was my history seminar on American education!

2. After classes, it’s time for lunch. This is my best friend, Ignacio! Lunch is a very social time and I love going to different dining halls to eat. In total, there are 14 dining halls on campus. Today I’m eating rotisserie chicken, salad, and marinara pasta - the menu changes daily.

3. Post lunch, I’m usually back to class or studying. I love romanticizing studying by going to beautiful libraries on campus. Usually I study 1-4 hours per day, but it really depends on the work load and how I’m feeling. I also will relax or go on a walk or run if I don’t want to study.

4. For dinner, my friends and I usually go to another dining hall and catch up. Occasionally, we will go out to eat or have a picnic, which we did here! I love all of my friends here and it’s the best part of the day. We study after or hang out, depending on our work load, and I usually go to bed around 11:30 pm-12 am to get a good night’s sleep.
