The full name for it is disney pixar dreamworks first i'm gonna watch this lecture
The movie we have to watch this week is beauty and the beast
Good morning everyone and welcome to a college day in my life
We have a big day today lots of stuff to do so I gotta get out of bed
Make sure to subscribe if you're not already and let's go
So
Okay, I made my breakfast and i'm actually so happy and proud of myself because i've never made a yogurt bowl before like i've eaten
Them at places and I probably like put yogurt in bowl and put a few strawberries on top and like called it a day
But i've never actually like tried to make a real yogurt bowl that like you see on pinterest, you know
So i'm so happy and i'm so excited to eat it, too
I put greek vanilla yogurt strawberries raspberries this oat mixture that my mom has and some melted peanut butter
This is definitely going on my instagram story
So you should follow my instagram to like keep up with all my stories and posts and with my yogurt bowl
I'm also having my classic smoothie that my dad makes every single morning and in case you're wondering I am back at home
I'm, not in my college apartment right now. I decided to come home for my best friend's 21st birthday
So today is thursday
We have a dinner tonight for her birthday and then her birthday is tomorrow on friday
But I think she's doing something with her family and then on saturday
There's also a party so i'm super excited to like see my friends again
And to go to this restaurant tonight because apparently it's like really really fancy and they have really good food
so I will actually bring you guys along to that because apparently it's gonna be really nice and since i'm doing
This little college day in my life
Like disney themed I will talk more about that later once I have my breakfast but i'm gonna like focus this vlog
On my disney class and my best friend whose birthday it is is like the disney queen
But that is it for now i'm going
To take my instagram story and then i'm going to eat my breakfast because sometimes the phone has to eat first
And then while i'm having my breakfast I will respond to comments because that's my favorite thing to do every single morning
Usually I do it in bed, but I just wanted to get out of bed because we have a lot to do today
So yeah, i'm gonna reply to my youtube comments because I respond to every single comment
So go leave me a comment down below right now, and I will reply to you
And yeah, i'm just gonna take my photo and eat and i'll catch you guys later
All right, I am all ready for the day and i'll explain to you what i'm doing today
So if you did not know already I go to queen's university
I'm in my third year and i'm majoring in film and media, which is a pretty cool major
We have some pretty cool classes, especially this year. I'm really excited to show you guys all my classes because like they're pretty cool
So today i'm going to be doing a vlog all about my disney class the full name for it is disney pixar dreamworks
And it's a class about like those companies and their movies and how they make their movies and all that. So it's pretty interesting
I'm only on week two. I think it feels like it's been forever
But yeah
We're only on week two
But i'm going to show you guys what I have to do this week for the class and then show you guys what it's like
studying disney in college the code for the class is 2 20
So these are all the assignments I have to do for it this week
So I have two readings to do I have two screenings
One is like the lecture and one is the movie and then I have an online discussion to do so i'm opening
My computer to get all that stuff out first i'm gonna watch this lecture. It's only 10 minutes
Not too bad. As I said before my friend jordan has always been like the disney queen in our friend group
Like she's always been obsessed with disney movies and like disney world and all that
And I am too like on a much lower scale. But like I still love disney
Especially like disney princess movies like I still watch them to this day and I got disney plus last year
So especially during like quarantine flash summer. I was watching a lot of disney movies
So being able to take this class is like so cool. Like I do not take it for granted
Like this is really really cool that i'm able to take this class and like it counts towards my major so I will watch this
Lecture it's only 10 minutes
usually I watch all my lectures in like two times the speed but this professor talks like kind of loudly so I might be
able to watch it in like
1.25 times the speed. We'll see
I just finished watching the lecture for this week
It was honestly fine. I was able to watch it in 1.5 times the speed
So what I have left for the assignments for this week are two readings a discussion post and a movie to watch
so the order for what i'm going to be doing it in is first I have to do one reading that like
There's no like real reason to do the reading like we don't have to write anything about it
So I might just like skim that one and then the second reading we have to include in our discussion post
So then i'll do that reading and then i'll write my discussion post. It's only 150 to 250 words
It's not that bad and then I will watch the movie last because the movie is for our first paper due next week
So that's what i'm going to start now. Okay, I found the readings
The first one is called from mouse to mermaid the politics of film gender and culture
Interesting. So let's see how many pages this is
Oh, the book is called from mouse to mermaid
And the chapter i'm reading is called the curse of masculinity disney's beauty and the beast. Okay, it's 11 pages
That's not that bad. Most of my readings like from last week were like 18 pages each
I just finished the first reading and that was actually so
Good like i'm so happy because usually my teachers the readings they assign are like always so confusing
So complicated for no reason I swear
they're written in like old english and I can never understand it and they
They know like the teachers know they're assigning stuff that no one can read and so I don't really see the point in that
but this one was actually written in like such easy english like I understood everything and it was
So interesting like it was about beating the beast. I actually like skipped the first five pages because they were kind of like
Introducing the topic whatever and talking about like other films, but I know for this class like I only have to know the stuff
about beauty and beast
so I skipped the first five pages and I was reading it was super super interesting it was talking about how like in
the time frame when beauty and the beast was released like there was a lot of like
Conflict. I think I skipped the intro so I don't really remember this part
But I think there was like conflict about like family dynamics and stuff men being bad people something like that
So beauty and the beast was created to kind of like turn the public
Towards the men and like think that the men were actually being good people because in the beast story like he's bad
But then he just needs someone to love him and then he turns into the good prince
So all these like bad male politicians like you just have to love them and then they're going to be like good people
So I was kind of talking about that. I was also talking about how like the happiness of society relies on the
happiness of the white men because the beast is cursed and even though
You might argue that he deserves it because he's like a bad person. He's super selfish
His servants are also cursed and they don't deserve it
So in order to make society happy in order to like free the servants from the curse
You have to make the beast happy you have to make the white man happy
so that was a really like
interesting perspective that i've never heard of before and like I love this movie but like reading that I was like
Mind blown it was so interesting. So that is over and now i'm gonna read the second article here
It's called analyzing the world according to disney
Oh my god, it's 19 pages. But I really have to read this one because I need it for my discussion post
I'm also gonna like put up the discussion question
Okay
So it says in the assigned reading the author refers to stephen watts's formulation of sentimental modernism
Reread the relevant sections of the chapter
So I guess i'm only going to read the parts of the chapter that talk about stephen watts's formulation
Thinking ahead
Great news
It is 12 30 and i'm done my readings for the week
I guess now I will start working on my discussion post
But before I do that i'm actually gonna go help my mom with lunch because she's making these little things that we usually have for
Appetizers, but we're gonna have them for lunch today
They're like these little puff pastry things and we put brie in them and raspberry jam and they are so good
So i'm gonna go help her make that right now
Lunch is served. This is what they end up looking like like they look kind of funky but they are so good
This is kind of a weird lunch
Like usually we eat these as appetizers, but i'm not like too hungry and I know that for dinner tonight for jordan's birthday
I'll probably eat a lot. You can actually see inside there like what it looks like
It is honestly probably my favorite appetizer that my mom makes did I just spend half an hour on tick tock?
Yes, I did but it's over now. My phone is over there and i'm gonna start writing this discussion post super excited
So i'm gonna get out a word document here to write the post
and on my safari I have the discussion question open and
We have to reference a movie that we've already seen in class and the only movie we watched because this is week two
And last week for week one we had to watch fantasia
So I have this out i'm gonna try and find a scene that I can reference and then I also have the textbook
Part that I need to reference here. So yeah, that is the plan for now. My phone is away
It's on my bed right there. So I will not go on it and I will grind through this
Every time I try and do something for school whether it's like a really long essay or a short discussion post like this
It always takes me so much longer than I expect it to because i'm so obsessed with like making sure that it's perfect
Like even though this probably counts for like a one percent of my grade. All right. I'm just gonna post it
I'm not gonna read it again. There we go
unfortunately
though I can't cross this off in my planner because the whole assignment is to post your own thing and then respond to
Two of your peers which like all my classes are doing and like responding to peers is the most annoying thing ever
but I have to respond to two peers 50 words each and
So far because today is thursday, and it's not due till sunday
only three other people have posted in my group and I could reply to them but like I kind of like to
Read a bunch of people's posts and then choose which ones like I can actually respond to instead of like forcing it out of myself
So I think i'm just gonna wait for that plus it's like literally 50 words each like it's gonna be so easy I can
Do it sunday at 11 55
So i'm just gonna pause on that and watch my movie
But first I just remembered that I have this box. I want to open on camera because it's very exciting
So one of the classes i'm taking this semester is called post production which is basically editing like editing video
but then also editing audio and learning about color correction and all that which i'm so excited about and
She said that over the year headphones is preferable to like actual earphones and I just have the regular apple earphones
So I got myself a pair of beats
And i'm so excited like these are the first beats i've ever had. I remember once when I got my computer actually
I was like two weeks late to that like student promotion where you could get a free pair of beats
So this is just very exciting
They're the beats studio three wireless ones and they're white with like a little gold accent
So, let's see get all the plastic off
I think I have to like take this paper off
Another box i'm very excited, but there's like literally a million boxes to get to it. Let's see
They're so cum, oh my god, I can't even like hear myself. They're so comfortable
i'll have to like set them up later because right now i'm gonna watch my movie but
Now my room is the perfect vibe for watching a movie and the movie we have to watch this week is beauty and the beast
What I was planning on watching the live action over the summer, but I never got to it
So i'm excited to watch this one and I have a paper on it next week
So actually I should probably look to see what that is about so that when i'm watching it i'm like thinking about the paper
To what extent does beauty and the beast reflect and reproduce the ideological values of a white middle-class
patriarchal society that reminded me that I want to have a notebook with me while i'm watching it so I can
Write down any ideas that come to my head about that and look at how cute my notebook is like hello
It's like full of stars and planets and just gonna get started with my homework, which is watching beauty and the beast
I just finished the movie. It was so good
Obviously such a classic so I did the second screening which was the movie so I can check off that
So for the next little bit i'm just gonna be getting ready taking my time
So I will talk to you guys when i'm at the dinner
So
I'm ready to go i'm leaving really soon. But I forgot to print out a picture of her gift because it hasn't arrived yet
It's this harry potter candle. I'll put it on the screen
It's by the brand charmed aroma
And their thing is that once you burn through the candle
There's a little ring at the bottom and jordan sent me a text like saying
oh, look, this is like so cool and like immediately I was like
Okay
Perfect birthday gift like i'll order it and then the next day I checked my tick tock because I don't have to tic toc
notifications on
And she had sent it to me like she found it through a tick tock and said like can this be my birthday?
Yeah, okay, perfect. I'm gonna write on the top and the bottom
I was just hoping
a change of weather a change
Okay, so we're in the bathroom of this restaurant it's called marcus apparently it's super popular for being like a photo spot
This is what it looks like. It is super pretty so we took some photos in here if I get any from anyone's phones
I'll insert them right now
But everyone else left so we should probably go
Just for three two one
Three one
Happy birthday two
