hello my friends
let me see if i could turn that on
nice
it's currently 5:18 am
i woke up at 5 because my alarm was super loud
so today i'm going to start my day at 5:00 a.m
i'm gonna get ready
and then i have to upload a video
i have to make a thumbnail
i have to write captions
prepare it, upload hopefully at 9am
that's usually when i upload videos
and then i'm going to carry on with my day
try to have a good morning
i haven't woken up at 5am in so long
probably like a few months
usually i wake up at like 10 a.m
stay in bed for two more hours
and then i'm out of bed at 12
i finish getting ready at 1 and then i start my day around 1 or 2
so hopefully i can get more stuff done in the day
and then finish my day earlier
we'll see if i can do that
i'm so tired
i was lying in bed for an extra 15 minutes
telling myself "do i really want to wake up this early?"
and then i told myself yes
i'm going to push myself to get out of bed at 5 :00 a.m-ish
so without further ado let's get ready
okay it's 5:20 now
still not bad, at least it's not 5:30.
time to shower
okay it's cold
i'm out of the shower i'm gonna wash my face
a nice massage to the face in the morning. all done
i'm still in my pajamas
i'm going to write captions, make my thumbnail
publish the video and then i'm going to have breakfast
let's go
and because it's the morning, the sunlight is hitting my little crystal
and i've got rainbows, so pretty
i haven't seen this in so long
it's hitting this little crystal
okay i gave myself two hours to get this video ready
let's see if i can do it
today's also garbage day so it's a little noisy outside
it's not even plugged in
i love writing captions with this
because the sound is so nice
oh i have a hair on my eye
oh wow it's literally on my eye
oh wow i got that
let's go
yes
first i'm gonna make my thumbnail
got this little stand for my ipad
good for any tablet, and then i make my thumbnail
no! cancel cancel
no
you're kidding me
i accidentally pressed install
wow that is the last thing that i needed right now
you're kidding me, it's not moving at all
they didn't even bother to give me that kind of warning button
that's like "are you sure you want to go through with the install?" but no
as soon as i accidentally tapped "install now" it just went for it
this is never going to end
well i guess i have to write captions now
you know what this is good because i eventually needed to update my ipad anyway
so this is honestly better for me
you know, i'm going to stop procrastinating updating my ipad
we're getting things done
so while that's updating i'm going to write captions
that's also fine. let's go
if i press the wrong button it just keeps playing
and then i have to rewind
i'm fine. i'm fine
captions are all done, i'm going to publish them
yay
i'm actually glad i updated my ipad
it's all good now
it's all updated so i don't have to worry about it
see i did that on purpose obviously
i'm kidding
i have an hour until i have to upload this video
so i gave myself a good amount of time
making a thumbnail takes around 30 minutes to an hour
this one shouldn't be too complicated
so hopefully i will finish earlier
i really like waking up this early
i'm getting so much done it's only 9am
right now i would be asleep still
i have this playlist called study music on youtube
it used to be private just because i would listen to it when i was doing stuff for college
and then after i graduated i made it public
it has 300,000 views so i guess you guys are enjoying it which is nice
i try to update it when i can but
yeah i'm going to listen to some nice studio ghibli beats
and then make my thumbnail
i wonder what coffee i want today
i don't know if i want an ice americano or a coffee
i'll probably make a coffee... yes i'll make a coffee
i just answered my own question
four, three, two, one... ten o'clock
cool it's done
that's it
wow what a lovely day
time to read youtube comments
these comments are so cute you guys are so cute
did a package come?
i guess a package came
oh that's so funny
oh shoot i forgot to share it on my story, okay wait
i forgot how to promote my stuff
okay hold on okay there we go
cool
aya
my ears are kind of sensitive so any loud sound just rings in my head
also i feel like i had a full day so far but it's only 10:20. wow
did i send my-
email? i don't think i did. let's see
oh i didn't
okay
okay that is sent
someone was like i'm watching 4 anime (me)
and then they're watching 18.
wow i want to do that
i changed my outfit
i'm still dressed pretty comfy but i look a little bit more put together
i am going to throw on my makeup
okay let's go
i have this playlist that i've been enjoying on spotify it's called comfort
it's just some of my all-time favorite songs, some new songs
just gives me good feelings, good vibes, i'm gonna play it
makeup is all on
it is only 11:30
for me that's not late because i did do a lot in the morning
but now i'm going to make breakfast and other things
this one matches my necklace
this is my necklace that i made with ana luisa, i'll have a link down below for it
it's like a nice sky blue color
sky blue
i put a little star here because i can't find the other little stud
and i just have these little hoops
cute
good afternoon my friends
i am sending some emails
i'm just trying to see how many emails i need to send
what is that?
there's a fly outs- there's a couple flies outside my window
they're just hanging out
hi
it's kind of weird to see flies fighting each other
i have an irrational fear of flying insects so ugh
i just got cold
i get goosebumps when i see flying insects
even butterflies scare me
so now i'm going to send some emails that i've been meaning to send
but in the meantime i can talk about our sponsor for this video which is skillshare
so i've talked about skillshare on my channel before but it is an online learning community
with thousands of classes where you can explore and learn new skills
develop interests you already have
and just have fun with your creativity
there are many categories of classes to choose from
such as film, photography, illustration, creative writing,
productivity, marketing, and so much more
i'm taking a class called character illustration: drawing faces, figures, and clothing by gabriel picolo
and i've been enjoying this class because i've always enjoyed drawing people
so i wanted to get back into drawing figures
practicing more and learning more to improve my skills
so if you're looking for something to do when you're bored
you want to learn something new
or you want to join creative supportive and inspiring communities with similar interests as you
skillshare is a great way to go
the first 1,000 people to use the link in my description will get a free trial of skillshare's premium membership
and after that it's only around $10 a month
thank you to skillshare for partnering with me on this video
and now let's get back into the vlog!
oh you're back?
i'm still sending my email so you got here faster than me
but skillshare is something that i like to do on my free time
if i'm not editing, if i'm not working on something else, i like to learn new things
it also just motivates me to get my life together
be a little productive, so i definitely recommend
um
when i'm writing emails i always make sure to not have any typos
but i tend to check way too many times
what month was that
so i'm done with stuff on my laptop for now
i want to give a plant update
i have this new little baby plant
this was a yogurt cup that i just reused
got a little plant in it
my little baby pothos
still surviving
i need to change the water
and then here is my other little pothos
so i did propagate these a few months ago
this one has been growing leaves
these leaves did not exist
this was the original leaf by itself
and now there are currently three fully grown leaves
there is a new leaf growing
so we're going to have four leaves
you can see right there
that is a new leaf that is coming
i'm so excited
but those are my plants so far
and then i've got some dried flowers over here
i've also got this nice snake plant that's surviving
and now i'm just going to change the water
thank you for listening to my plant update
i enjoy updating you about my plants
let's go
look at those leaves
the miracle of nature
cute
my plants are happy now
hydrate yourself, hydrate your plants
yeah okay
what a long day
it is now 8:20
it has been quite a busy day on camera off camera
but for the most part it was a good busy day
i am tired
but my review of this day
waking up at 5 00 a.m
it was definitely worth it waking up earlier in the morning
i feel like if i just try to sleep at a decent time
then waking up at 5am is honestly not difficult
because i slept at 9pm yesterday i woke up at 5am
i got eight hours of sleep
started my day super early
got a lot more stuff done
that now i can kind of just go back to bed, not stay up till midnight, past midnight
and also the mornings are just really relaxing, you know
the whole world's asleep
you get to experience the sunrise
you get to see the world kind of warm up and wake up
and most of all i just get more hours in the day
so i have no regrets about waking up at 5
whether i'm going to realistically keep waking up this early i don't know if i'm going to
but i will try to make a better conscious effort to wake up earlier
because i see the value in getting up earlier
this is my knee by the way
i always sit with my legs kind of up
especially if i'm eating i have my legs kind of like here
or like i'm sitting crisscrossed on the chair
anywho, maybe one day i will-
or one week
one week i will try to wake up at 5 am every single day maybe for a video
but i don't know if i'm going to because my days are pretty repetitive
that you would just see kind of the same day over and over
but maybe i'll challenge myself next time in the future
to see if i can keep up with this sleeping schedule
and if you don't get that video for a while that probably means i did not stick to it (which is perfectly ok!)
but i think like a good six seven a.m is not impossible
but anyway i hope you enjoyed waking up at 5 a.m with me
i definitely would like to try this again
probably not tomorrow i wanted to sleep in but
i do enjoy waking up earlier though so i'll try a little harder
but rest is also good!
but also if i'm sleeping at 3 or 4 am (which i have been doing)
then that's a problem that i need to fix
and thank you again to skillshare for sponsoring this video
as mentioned before the first 1000 people to click the link in my description
will get a free trial of skillshare's premium membership
so take advantage of that
it is time for me to slumber
i hope you have a good day or night
and i will see you in my next video
what did i just roll over?
it's okay we're all good
that is it for me, thank you for hanging out with me
and i will see you next time! goodbye my friends :)
