We all know how the story goes. The reading is piling up, you’re sleep deprived and that mid-semester coursework is looming. Motivation for getting on with your work seems non-existent so you crawl back into your bed and turn to YouTube. *record scratch* Instead of re-watching the Chicken Connoisseur videos why not productively procrastinate by having a look at some of these student vloggers who can help inspire you to get on top of your workload.
