[Music]
hey guys it is I think a day I'm here
and I woke up at about 6 a.m. I try to
wake up pretty early so I can get some
things done but I just had breakfast I
had some soy nut butter which is not it
looks like peanut butter but it's not
it's made of soy and it's really good
for you so I had that and I haven't gone
to the grocery store in a while and I
need to go pick up some groceries today
so I'm gonna go ahead and do that oh I'm
gonna go quickly and I'll probably film
some things on my phone
I usually go grocery shopping maybe 2
times a week I don't have a car and it's
hard to carry everything yeah I'm gonna
do that I think today
[Music]
okay so it's like extremely hard to like
hold my phone and shop at the same time
so I couldn't do it guys I got some
shots but it's just grocery shopping you
know how it goes that's a Japanese
grocery store
it was empty in there which I was pretty
shocked about but yeah
so now I'm in this tiny space in my
kitchen and I'm going to be putting my
stuff away and I have a very tiny fridge
this is this is the fridge I wish I wish
I had a bigger fridge I used to have one
but when I moved to my apartment that
was infested with cockroaches I couldn't
bring it because the fridge didn't fit
but it wouldn't fit here this is my tiny
fridge I have a ton of crap in here
we're good this is like a challenge
right now like trying to fit everything
inside this tiny ass fridge I'm gonna
put this here ignore the wine bottles
you know there's times when you need
that if I get too much stuff but I got
some chocolate celery you can't get like
tiny cut-up celery sticks this is cut up
as you can get it I got some tuna I
already have a couple cans of this is
just like tuna in the water noodles for
my lunch carrots I got some brown rice
today I'm hoping this is brown rice it
looks like brown white rice it says get
mine which is brown brown rice apples
lettuce like mix lettuce first salad
which is what I'm making today I have
spinach for it's in deep green beans I
get most of my vegetables frozen because
things don't last long in Japan chicken
for the meal we're about to make tonight
and onion a sweet potato my favorite
type of yogurt thus far although I do
have another Greek yogurt that I haven't
tried yet so there we go and some
bananas
and I got my lovely Walmart Walmart bag
theya was partnered with Walmart so a
lot of this stuff there it's like
japanese Walmarts basically problem that
I have with this apartment is the fact
that it's basically there's basically no
sunlight but over here in my workspace
there's none so I feel very drained I
lived here for like five years than five
years guys I've lived in this apartment
for about eight months I moved a lot and
moved so much but I've been through a
lot and a lot of people don't know
everything that I've been through made
me pretty strong person each day it's
always still hard living in another
country I don't know
days like these sometimes you feel a
little bit alone I wanted to do what I'm
doing today like I came to Japan to
teach whereas a lot of people come to
Japan because they just want to
experience a different culture which is
great but I wanted to do that as well as
teach English here in Japan I'm very
content I love my job I love my students
my kids I say I call them my kids
because they're just they're so full of
life so full of energy they all have
different personalities they all have so
much love in their hearts and teaching
here for this long has been such a gift
I have so much that I want to do and I'm
still young but I'm not getting any
younger so I'm trying to see what else I
can do because I know that I can do so
much more and I could be something
someday
so I'm trying you don't come to Japan
with a purpose
then you're doing it wrong okay so today
this is my lunch I didn't show the
process of making it because it's
basically just mayonnaise and noodles
and sunflower seeds with like lettuce
and red onion
and a little bit of mustard with tuna
it's like a tuna salad and then I didn't
try this yet and kind of nervous about
it but it's like a milk protein drink I
was thinking maybe it would help keep me
full today because I have gained a
little bit of muscle and which is good
and I've lost a little bit of weight but
I'm not trying to lose weight I'm just
trying to tone up and be healthy so this
is what I'm eating for lunch so it is
about 3 p.m.
feels like 5:00 I've been working
non-stop today I'm exhausted
this is like the first and many days
that I had to sit down and edit a video
but I'm just like so antsy like I just
want to get out I want to do something
but I don't know like I just haven't
been as motivated and I guess you have
those days where you're just not
motivated to do anything I try to do a
zillion things at one time and I can't
because I'm literally doing a zillion
things in my life so I'm like I said me
doing music I'm doing the videos I'm
teaching thank you golden software for
sponsoring this video I use this editor
move avi video editor for some of my
social media stories Twitter or Facebook
videos etc but this program is great if
you're just starting out on YouTube and
want to be a daily vlogger the program
is actually easier than Final Cut Pro or
iMovie or any other editing program it's
very straightforward if you're a
beginner you don't have to do a bunch of
research to understand it you can also
create slideshows social media content
and blogs using the software I'm making
a video about travel tips in Japan from
my Twitter page right now it should be
posted so you can check it out
it took me literally 50 minutes to make
this and you can create a lot of content
on
this program there's tons of transitions
title stickers to make your videos look
super pretty and you can upload them
straight from this editor to youtube
when you finish so you can install this
on a Mac or Windows and I hope you guys
will check it out that's a little bit
about this program and they gave me a
certain amount off if you guys buy the
program you want to use it so I'll link
that done below and it's a really good
program if you're doing social media or
if you're just doing daily vlogs or you
don't have the time to learn another
program you just want to do it for fun I
think this program is pretty pretty
simple pretty straightforward very easy
to work with this has been a very hard
day trying to film this because I'm
going through a lot and I can't really
talk about everything because I feel
like there are some things that are just
kind of like personal you just keep to
yourself I don't really know what to say
to the camera anymore
it is pouring rain so I had to bring my
clothes in today and it sucks because
when you wash clothes in Japan and it
rains then they don't dry so this is
like a typical day off where I don't do
anything so I'm sorry there's not so
much going on I just tried really really
hard to like push through today because
I try to get through each day being a
strong person I know I used that word a
lot but I try like really hard
so been explaining these things I'm
sorry guys decided instead of eating the
chicken that I have in the fridge I'm
gonna make some breakfast for dinner
because it always makes me happy my
parents and I love going out for
breakfast but we also like making
breakfast at home me my dad specifically
and my dad and I always I mean like when
I went home last time we would wake up
early especially on a Sunday because
he's home on a Sunday super early Sunday
morning put some bacon in the oven
tastes really good in the oven and we
would just enjoy breakfast together
so me and my dad really love breakfast
breakfast foods okay so this is my
breakfast dinner breakfast I made an egg
in a fancy frame but it's really really
bad they call it egg in a basket are
gonna frame whatever um just egg and
toast with a little bit of butter and
then I have a salad so random it's
pretty much the end of my night I'm
gonna just like edit this blog and watch
some YouTube videos and just go to bed
early because you just want to stay
