[Intense gameplay on basketball court]
I never got the opportunity and time to shoot the “day in the life” video in one day which was requested over a thousand times
So, for the last 3 months, I shot small clips and compiled them here to make an average “day in the life” video
Hope you’ll like it
Generally “day in the life” videos start at 7-8 am in the morning
But, as I have a lot of works at night and I don’t have any class before 10 am in the morning
I usually stay awake from 12am to 2:30 to 3:00 am to complete my homeworks and assignments
That’s why my “day in the life” starts at 12 am!
I’ll have to make a mini artificially program for my neuroscience project tomorrow
to make the program, I’m keeping some background researches ready now
When I’m finished with reading, I take decide to go to sleep
Before going to bed, I brush my teeth and go to sleep after checking the calendar so that I don’t miss any commitment next morning
Usually I try to sleep for 7.5-8 hours
But sometimes, I turn out sleeping more than that
Sometimes I end up wasting 20-30 minutes on social after waking up
After waking up, I brush my teeth and start the day
My day starts with the most important task of the day, listing the important to-dos
Generally, I save these on my phone
But I’m writing them down for the video
Then I check my google calendar fast so that I don’t miss any event and get mentally prepared to approach those events
After that, I take a quick exercise fast or stretching if I don’t have enough time
Stretching helps me to increase productivity and I don’t feel lethargic for the rest of the day
I have a regular applied math lecture at 10:30 am
We learn mathematical modeling in this class
After the class, I try to read and reply hundreds of comments in my facebook page and youtube channel
My biggest regret is that a lot of people requests for videos I had covered earlier rather than just looking for them in my channel
I feel disheartened because they could look for those videos which doesn’t require a lot of work
I'm uncomfortable with recording clips like private phone calls, praying, going to the washroom for "day in the life" video
So consider these while watching
As we're recording, let's have a small tour in Eliot House
You can watch the detailed tour, I have my house and dorm tour in the video description
Harvard's upper classmen houses are generally located near the river and Eliot House isn't an exception
That's why Eliot House has a beautiful view of the river
Harvard housing system wasn't based on lottery earlier
Students had to choose which house they wanted to go and most of the elite students used to choose Eliot House
That's why Eliiot house is often referred "more Harvard than Harvard"
Pakistan's former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto is an example
Elliot House has a shortcut gate to go to the river and bridge faster
Weld Boat House is located beside the bridge
University athletes use it to keep their boats and equipments
Harvard business school and Harvard stadium is just over the bridge
The red buildings on the other side of the road are Harvard Kennedy School where our super cop Mashroof Hossain had studied
This tower view of Eliot House is my favorite
When I had started recording clips for this "day in the life" video
Ramadan hadn't started yet and we used to have lunch like any average day
Every upperclasssmen houses in Harvard has their own dining halls
In normal non-pandemic time, these dining halls are filled up with students and student life
But in this pandemic time, students have to wait in line to collect food
And before collecting food, we have to scan our covid test results
The menu at dining hall changes everyday
It includes different halal foods and lots of drinks, coffee, fruits and other foods
To keep us healthy during this pandemic time, students have to get their covid test done 3 times every week
and check the results everyday while picking the food from the dining hall
Their are hand sanitizer booths like this at different places to keep ourselves clean
As the weather is generally beatiful here, we have our lunch at courtyard with friends
I will work on Onethread after lunch today
Which is a Bangladeshi tech startup and it provides affordable project management tool
You can check the link of Onethread in the comment section if you're interested!
I have my next class in half an hour and I don't want to start anything new now
Usually I relax or read some pages of a book or play FIFA on my Nintendo Switch
I have a class on "Brain Development and Plasticity" at 3 o' clock
We are taught how childhood experiences affects our adulthood
This amazing neuroscience is under Professor Takao K. Hensch
As I'm not generally productive at around half past 4, I try to get out with friends or having a coffee
As I take extra sugar with my coffee, its a disadvantage for my long term health
The house in front of me is Kirkland house where Mark Zackerburg used to stay
This house at my right is Winthrop house
Good thing about Harvard Square is that there are plenty of coffee shops and restaurants in the area
From Starbucks, Dunkin' Doughnuts to Indian food, Thai food you'll find everything here
I'll need about 10-15 minutes to finish this hangout
Then I'll head over to play sports. I generally play whatever sports I get to engage with
My friends are free to play basketball today, so we'll play basketball
[Ordering Iced Vanilla Latte]
[Forgot to order small one; haha]
Before heading to the next activity, let's have a quick look at the courtyard of Kirkland house, where I'll have my coffee
Usually I love to play football, but as my friends are playing basketball, I decided to play with them
The next 1 minute of the video will be highlights from the basketball game
Watch it if you like or you can skip the next one minute
SCORE!
ASSIST!
SCORED AGAIN!
AND AGAIN! THIS WAS A GOOD ONE, RIGHT?
The game's over. I'll have to head back to my room and have shower
I have a dinner plan with my friends afterwards
[Quick shower time]
[Soft song playing in the background]
[Yikes]
[Robert teaches how to eat soup dumplings]
Generally I have dinner at the dining hall but I thought of going to a chineese restaurant today
After having dinner, I'm coding for a math modeling project in python
I'm modeling the nuclear arms race between the US and Russia here
Thereafter, I'll have to code for a neuroscience artificial intelligence project with a friend in python
We're showing the computational model of how a person plans while navigating to a destination
[Planning to watch "DAЯK" with friends]
I try to make spontaneous plans if I don't have any work
I'm going to watch a TV show named "DARK" with friends today!
DAЯK is an awesome and thrilling science fiction TV show on time traveling streaming on Netflix, which I highly recommend
Just returned to my room after watching DARK and it's 11:30 at night
I'm ending the "day in the life" video here, but my day hasn't ended yet
Youtube content creation requires enough hardwork, so I'll have to plan for youtube
And following that, I'll start doing a math homework which will be completed within approximately 2:00-2:30 am
Hope you liked the video, if you want more content like this, let me know in the comment section
I wish to make a small campus tour of Harvard, if you want me to make it, do let me know!
Thank you for watching this, hope to see you in the next video!
