first things first: I LOVED your Santa Paws mug!!!! hahahaha Ok now serious stuff: PARABÉNS!!!!! This is a major accomplishment together with so many life changes! I can't even imagine how it feels, so thank you so much for sharing it so openly. Whatever you decide in terms of continuing vlogging, be sure that I'm coming back to your channel throughout my own grad school journey, which is already a bit more special because of your videos. There's this quote from a Brazilian author, Mario Sergio Cortella, which has helped me before and feels appropriate right now, so here is my translation attempt (hopefully it makes sense in English and is not too cheesy): "Roots are not anchors. Roots feed, anchors immobilize. Those who have anchors live only the nostalgia and never the saudade. Nostalgia is memory that hurts, saudade is memory that brings you joy." Saudade is a very special word in Portuguese that has no direct translation to English. It relates to longing or missing something really bad, but somehow that memory still makes you smile and feel grateful. I hope this whole journey for you is a big reason to feel saudade, and that the journey ahead gives you one thousand more reasons like that!
OMG GUILIANO 😭😭😭😭 this is so freaking sweet.. thank you so much 😭😭😭😭 it's people like you that inspire me and motivate me on this youtube thing ❤️ this is such a powerful quote - thank you so much for sharing it and my goodness you have such depth!! it's so fitting for where I'm at in life right now ❤️ thank you thank you thank you - you really made my day 🥲
Thank you for sharing your PhD journey with us, Anne! What an exciting transition to a new chapter in your life. We can’t wait to see how it goes!!! Also, good luck with your thesis submission. You will do great! ❤️
Congratulations on moving on to your next adventure!! It is natural to feel sad, it is very bittersweet to leave a lab. I hope you continue your channel, it has been a huge source of inspiration for me as a baby PhD! 💖
Ahhh huge congratulations Anne! What a HUGE moment 🤩 it really feels like the end of an era and I’m so honoured to have been able to follow you on your journey! I’m sad that the lab vlogs are ending because you inspired me to start my own channel here on RUclips and you continue to inspire me with every video you post. That being said, I’m looking forward to whatever videos you decide to record next and hopefully we can continue to follow you along on your journey 💕
Thanks Jessica 😭😭😭 I can't believe I inspired your youtube channel :O what a freaking honour!! super appreciate how you've genuinely watched all my videos as they came out ❤️❤️❤️ you're too sweet 😭😭
Hello from Malaysia! Just to let you know how much your vlogs have kept me ‘sane’ and gave me comfort for my own PhD journey. I stumbled across your channel when I had doubts about how much time and effort I should be putting into my studies because I felt like it was never enough. Learnt so much about the ups and down of PhD journey and now I’m more relaxed and embracing every bit of it. So congratulations on finishing your PhD and all the best in your future endeavours!
Wow I'm so happy you found my channel and I'm so happy that my videos gave you a little bit of comfort! Best of luck with the rest of your PhD journey! Thank you so much for the encouragement 😊
Hi Anne! Congrats on being PhD Done! Can yo share your thoughts on how you decided on your next career steps? Are you doing a post doc? I'll hopefully be done in the spring myself and not sure if I want to pursue a postdc...thanks for inspiration too

AHH such a good video idea, Marianne - thank you! I will definitely try to piece a video together once all this chaos is over with!
I misspelled your name, sorry!
