hi vanity fair i'm ruby rose and this is
everything i do in a day
i drop a clock every day
[Music]
i wake up at 5 a.m to take out my dogs
because
one of my dogs can't walk so i don't
take her out at 5am things happen
then i go back to sleep till about 7 ish
usually and then i like to get up
i have a bed that cools down my side of
the bed and i'm aware that that is
ridiculous
but it helps me sleep better and i use
way less air conditioning
and there's some other really good
reasons why i have a bed that does that
that isn't just a terrible thing to say
to in public
but it also well it gets worse doesn't
it so then it
lightly vibrates around my alarm time
and then it warms up to normal
temperature and that it allows me to
wake up
at the best best way that i can
i like this bed a lot okay i set also
other alarms though in case
for some reason um my bed doesn't wake
me up wow
god i'm just losing fans by the second
thank goodness my dogs do have a morning
routine
they jump on my face charlie will run
circles around the room and literally
run over my face
until i get up especially because he's a
rescue so we can't really cut like cut
his nails down as much as we want to
because whoever had him before didn't
for so long
like wolverine um but in the size of a
rabbit
just running over my face until i get up
so i get it really quick thankfully
chance you can't walk
she does have a morning routine so i
feed her if you've ever seen the human
centipede
as she's eating at the same time she's
also
getting rid of things she's eaten
previously my morning bathroom routine
whatev what everyone else does when they
go to the bathroom right like i don't do
it in a i just like it like
they anyone that is watching when you
get up and you go to the bathroom
that's what i do too like crazy i do
that first
and then i have a shower and i have like
two minute showers i'm not big on
showers also i don't have any hair
there's not a lot to do
uh you can get a lot done in two minutes
in a shower and growing up a we didn't
have a lot of money so my mom was always
like
fast showers fast showers quick showers
and then we had
uh water problems we had you know we had
droughts we were trying to
save water for farms and communities and
then we had like all these things going
on so we had water restrictions
where they sent everyone's house a
little timer you would stick onto the
shower and then you turn it upside down
and that was how long you were supposed
to have a shower for
and so now i think that's just still
ingrained in me i'm just like and i come
out my friends are like
did you just like fake shower like kids
do it they're like i'm in there
i'm cleaning totally cleaning hi
and it's like you kid you smell um i do
actually have the shower
but i'm a pisces i'm a water sign and
i'm all about baths so i have a bath
every day i usually do that towards the
end of the day
oh i've just ruined the timeline baths
happen later but don't worry there's way
more interesting things that happen
before that mm-hmm
just stay tuned if i'm not working i
will just have
a rebel like a mushroom coffee because
because normal coffee makes me anxious
imagine you're seeing me right now
imagine me with like seven coffees in my
system
but if i am working and it's like 4am or
whatever it is
i'll sometimes have a normal coffee but
i can only have one
in a whole day i'm like a smoothie fruit
breakfast person
i'll do waffles sometimes but only when
i can like be bothered making waffles i
don't do eggs i don't do
toast i don't really do any of the other
fun things i do do vegemite sometimes
i've run out but it's really hard to
find here because everyone in america
hates vegemite
you should try it don't try it you'll
hate me right now
when i decide what i'm gonna wear for
the day it's usually based on how i'm
feeling like every other human
in the planet and today i was feeling
like this sweater would probably
pop on camera uh didn't even bother
thinking about the fact that it's 95
degrees
so i would say i'm less practical and a
bit stupid sometimes
but it does look good does pop doesn't
it i like to work out at 10 a.m
during this time and then 11am when it's
normal time because there's no traffic
right now
and i go to gloveworks at the boxing
studio leon's my trainer he's
so awesome i like to do it early and and
straight up in the day because it makes
me feel good for the rest of the day
and then i'll eat and i usually eat
something really light um salad
some protein tofu cook so on a work day
i do all those same things but then i go
to work
and i get to be a different character
and say things in front of the screen
kind of like now that i'm better at it
especially i just did a film in
mississippi with morgan freeman and it's
been
however long since i've had that much
social interaction and slash work you
know acting is is a muscle and memory is
a muscle and they're things that
you kind of freak out and then god have
i forgot how to do my job
but it was a really great way to
transition back into working and working
you know under these new kind of
guidelines some of the things i like to
do is either breathing exercises
uh made it like a short meditation a
focus meditation i journal
i should add that to the other yeah
earlier before we got to work i journal
in the morning
a journal for three minutes so i usually
journal for the character um
and then i can kind of look back on that
journal as the character and see
like what my intentions are that day or
what she would how she would react to
something based on
her past sorry her past life all the
things that she's been through that
might not necessarily
actually be in the script you create a
backstory for your character and in
doing so i journal
and then i look back at the journal and
kind of can remember like what this
person's been through and sometimes it's
not
in the script so your character starts
when she's 30 or when she's 20 or
you know hopefully not much older than
that for me right now guys i'm still on
my 30s i'm a prime
and that's how i usually prep i don't
spend a lot of time on my phone
and when i want to look at the news or
read news i'll either watch the news or
i like on my tv
or on my computer i'll read the news but
i i get it away from the phone so that
the phone can
not feel so like a little
wormhole just why i love wearing watches
so that i don't always go to my phone to
check the time
so if i go to my watch i get the time if
i go to my phone i get
messages alerts this is happening oh my
god oh my god oh my god we're all gonna
die
so it's a nice thing to do just to not
be on the phone that much and now i use
it to facetime
call and text way more than i used to
whereas it used to be kind of social
media and news and that's about
about it i wasn't checking in on people
as much as i do now which is it's nice
i usually journal again at the end of
the day about sort of so in the morning
i'll set the intentions of
how do i want my day to be how was my
day yesterday how could it have been
better or how could it
not like putting pressure on myself just
what could i have done differently or
what were some of the things i really
loved about yesterday and then at night
time i kind of
reflect on the day and think about the
things that made me happy the people
that made me happy
you know it's always the small things
like someone buys you a coffee or a
friend
you haven't spoken to in years hits you
up and i like to remember those things
before i go to sleep this is a problem
right like when you live alone with
three dogs and none of them know how to
cook
you have to cook every night did you
know that i didn't know that
they also don't pay rent and they don't
help clean like if i knew this
like when i should have known this i
would have no dogs
just kidding dogs dogs are everything
but they don't cook so i do
and i love cooking people don't think i
cook and then i recently i had some
friends over
and cooked this whole vegan situation
because cooking for one person isn't
quite as fun as cooking for a group
and literally they were like you can
cook
i'm like we've been friends for five
what do you mean i can of course i can
cook
that you're cooking all the time now and
literally i now i'm cooking all the time
i shouldn't i should have made a bad
meal
sometimes after dinner i will do a zoom
date i mean
a friend thing because
zoom date you can do with your friends
and your mum
so i do like i'll have a zoom date
friend date whatever date whatever you
guys want to think
and i'll have either my camp quarantine
people or
different friends and watch a movie
together so like you set the computer up
you have to push play at the same time
it's kind of like being back in school
when you used to have to
wow i'm aging myself anyway it's fine
when you used to want to record music on
a cassette
and you had to wait till like the ad was
over on the radio and then you're like
record and you have to wait to the end
of the song and you're like stop
so it's like that you have to push play
at the exact same time or the sound is
off
but it's really fun and i like doing
that more than just if i'm going to
watch stuff by myself
i'd rather read a book or read a script
or play guitar or play piano there's
like a lot of things i've arts and
crafts
tie-dye there's a million things that i
would rather do than watch
another program by myself after six
months of you know having done that on
and off
but i do think it's really fun when you
do it with a friend unless they choose
the movie and they choose bad ones that
sucks
i usually go to bed around 10
11 ish depending on if i've worked i
will go to bed straight away
like if i've had a really big day or
really early morning or night shoots
i'll just pass out usually but if i
haven't then
it can take me a minute to fall asleep
maybe an hour
that's when i'll read like a boring book
or re-read a script that i've already
read 10 times
have you seen my brain it's only worse
when i'm sleeping
i do dream i dream a lot i remember them
vividly and i also
if i have a dream i'll tend to write
them down in the morning because some of
them i'm sure they're like
full-blown films like a whole product
like they're chronologically they make
sense there's great character
development
some of them are action some of them
have you know two-headed horses
and i'm like this this this is an idea
and the problem is if you don't write it
down fast enough
it's like the memory is leaving your
brain as you're riding it so you don't
the two hot the horses they had two
heads hit and then where was it oh and
then you're like
i'm missing a character never going to
get that one back
but i do think that every idea starts
with a
smaller idea and you grow on them and a
lot of the ideas maybe not the
two-headed horse but there's some good
things there and uh
actually break free a short film that i
made came out of a dream and a lot of
the music that i make
has come from a dream as well so that's
everything i hope you enjoyed watching
that
uh as much as i enjoyed telling it i
wish i could have told you more exciting
things but i did bring up a two-headed
horse
um i deserve a point for that thanks
guys
