a productive day in my life: grocery shopping, almond milk lattes, decorating my room, veg stir fry
oh wow
hello there
good morning my friends
good morning my friends it is 8 am
usually i wake up around 6 to 8 am
we're gonna have a productive day today
once i eventually get up
i think i'm gonna change right now
i am going to do my makeup later
because that takes forever
and i need to walk my dogs
so here we go
i don't know if that actually worked
this is the fit for today
i am wearing a white short sleeve blouse
and then some stretchy pants
i have a thing on my eye
i'm gonna go walk my dogs now
and then i will do my makeup when i come back
finally got my makeup on
it is 11:30 am
so we're kind of good on time
i'm gonna have my vitamins now
i absolutely hate swallowing pills
it's like any time i put a pill in my mouth
i just forget how to swallow
i don't even know why
these pills aren't even that big
taking iron supplements
man that was a hard pill to swallow
next i'm taking my multivitamins
i don't really know if these are effective
kinda wanna maybe try something else
other than gummies
but i also hate swallowing pills
last one, vitamin b12
this one i put under my tongue and just let it dissolve
i like these ones
but now we are done with the vitamins
i took a little break and watched some youtube videos
i have to go and get some groceries soon
but i don't know when i'm gonna leave
i think i'll leave exactly at 12
it's 11:47 am right now
i'm gonna plan out my day a little bit just so i don't feel lost
maybe i can also plan what i'm gonna buy
i also wanna make a stir fry maybe today
i want some vegetables in my system
and make a veggie stir fry
i also wanna listen to a cute playlist so i have the right mood
i planned out what i'm gonna do today
i'm gonna grocery shop and then i'm gonna hopefully clean my room
i haven't really finished unpacking since i got back from la a few weeks ago
then i wanna treat myself by making an almond milk latte
and then i'm gonna plan a video
fold my laundry
hang up some polaroids that i took
first i need to go grocery shopping
i have my reusable bag
we are ready to go
i'm not gonna film and drive
i'll see you at trader joe's
i got lost 3 times trying to get here
how's that even possible
let's get shopping
i am back from shopping
guys i love trader joes so much
i got so much healthy food
for so little
the people were nice, it was a good time, a good experience
i'm gonna go home now, i got a huge haul
i'll show you later
and i desperately need an iced latte
so i'm gonna make that as soon as i get home
everything i bought is mostly for dinner, so
i'm not going to cook right now
but see you at home
for my haul i got pretzel sticks
bananas
vegetable gyoza
soyaki sauce
broccoli
bell pepper
carrots
mushrooms and zucchini
what a beautiful haul
alright so breaking down my almond milk latte recipe
i use a nespresso machine
and i use a single espresso shot
the name of the cup is voltesso
you do not need a nespresso machine to make a latte
this is just the machine that i got for myself
because it's simple to use and it's convenient
not sponsored by the way, i just have this machine
i just use a full cup of ice because the espresso is hot
and now we have a single shot of espresso
and to make it a latte i am putting in my milk of choice
which is almond milk
you can use whatever milk you like
or you can just put in water and that becomes an iced americano
or heck you can just have the espresso by itself
and after you swirl it all together you have a beautiful iced almond milk latte
yay
i give it a 10 out of 10
and we are back after 2 hours
i desperately need some natural light in this room
i'm gonna take down my painting
omg light
oh the light
i usually have my painting up here for privacy
just because i removed my curtain
i am in the search for new curtains
but i haven't had the time to actually go and find curtains
i just want simple white curtains
i could also get blinds but they are a little pricey
but blinds also take up less space
so i'll have to think hard about that
but in the meantime i don't have curtains so i'm exposed to the world
the window over there has blinds and if you have noticed, they are pink
the owner switched curtains around so i have pink curtains now
i'm definitely thinking of removing it too
or i might just put curtains below the blinds
and just put the blinds up
i've been talking about curtains for too long now
i have a nice coaster here so i'm not damaging my table
i definitely recommend coasters
so if you did see me make lattes on my instagram story
now you know the truth
it's a nespresso machine
i don't have the energy for espresso machines
if you can deal with coffee beans and all that i recommend an espresso machine
it's less clutter and trash and all that
but nespresso does have a recycling system
it gives you this bag that you can send with all the used capsules
you can send it off, mail it off
my friend has an espresso machine
she uses it every single day
she deals with that whole tamping whatever thing
so it's really up to you
i think right now i'm just going to
plan my videos and
take care of other things
i also did want to look up some stuff
i wanna look up a gym membership
i wanna look up how to get a passport
all those things i've been kind of procrastinating
let's get stuff done
guys i can feel my eyes-
they're wide open now
i used to say that caffeine doesn't work on me
but i think it does now
gonna drink some water
remember to stay hydrated my friends
usually caffeine makes my hands shake
i think we're okay though
this time i wanna-
this time i wanna cut it into an s shape
let's see if i can
my only talent
isn't it beautiful
it is currently 4 pm
and now i'm just going to decorate my wall a little bit
with some polaroids
i took some polaroids-
i was gonna say this weekend, what day is it today?
it's friday?
so in the middle of the week
i took some polaroids
and i wanna hang them up
i will show you guys what the polaroids are first
here is a picture of me in front of a tree
my face kind of got washed out but that's okay
i'm still kind of there
i took a picture of the ocean
here's a picture of me and my friend sophia and there's also chimmy
i really like this one it's a picture of me next to the ocean
sitting on a bench
and then here's another picture of the sky
and they're really cute
and i'm gonna hang them up
so instead of hanging it on yarn
i'm going to tape it onto the wall with some cute washi tape
that you can kind of see
it's this pink polka dot color
i am going to hang up my first one
so i have my washi tape and i'm just gonna
cut a little tiny strip
and since it's washi tape it won't damage my wall or the polaroid
i'm going to stick it on here if you can see
give enough room for it to stick on the wall
and then i'm gonna put it up
i think it doesn't matter where it goes as long as it's on the wall
and just one more piece of tape
aw it's gonna be so cute
i love having pictures of nature on my wall
it reminds me to go outside
and not stay in my room all day
yay
then i'm going to put up this picture of me
these are just older polaroids
then this is a piece of post it paper
i'm gonna put one more picture here
and then just everywhere else
recently i've been taking more polaroids
just because i wanna capture moments more
of course living in the moment's good too
but it's nice to take some pictures as well
people think that oh everyone's just taking pictures of things on their phones now
or whatever but
you know, people back then too
they recorded stuff with their video cameras, their camcorders
whatever technology they had back in the day
humans just wanna capture things sometimes
so just having a nice balance of being in the moment and capturing moments
i think is key
here's the wall so far
got more polaroids up
i wanna take more pictures so i can fill it all the way up
here are more polaroids that i took
i took them about a week ago
and they are of my dogs
having my dogs to look at as i'm working is a form of self-care
and i'm here for it
oh that's too low okay
ok you guys i decided i'm going to clean my room once and for all
i was this close
to just skipping cleaning
because of my laziness
but i'm going to take this video filming opportunity
to be productive and get it done
and just rip the bandaid off
i'm going to do this while i still have caffeine in my brain
let's go
you guys i need more furniture in my room
i don't have room for anything
like where do i put these
i don't want it just sitting on my bookshelf
but i might have to
i don't want it in my background either
i need like a bookshelf or something
whatever that's not bad okay
ok i eventually finished cleaning
it may not look like a huge difference but i can walk everywhere now
i used to stumble over everything
but it's all clean now
let me show you my room
this is EMPTY
this is my dirty laundry pile
and this is a pile of clothes i have to fold soon
all clean
bed is made
it's always made
and then desk is nice and clean as well
i have to wash that
all clean
i went ahead and did other stuff
so now it's 6:40 pm
i think i'm going to make dinner
like right about now
i think for dinner i'm going to just do a quick montage of it
because this day has honestly been very long
i have a series on my channel dedicated to cooking
so i think a montage is fine enough for this video
enter the montage
hello there i'm back with a voiceover
and we're going to make a nice stir fry
here are all my vegetables and tofu
i'm just going to point out a few things
make sure all your vegetables are nicely washed
and then also another thing
i am draining water out of my tofu off screen
i did that whole paper towel stacking method
where you put paper towels on a plate
then i place the tofu on top of the paper towels
then i place more paper towels on top of the tofu
and then i stacked a plate and cup on top of the tofu
to weigh it down and bring out the water
as for all the vegetables it's very simple
i just cut them into bite sized pieces
with a good knife
be very careful if you're doing this
please don't injure yourself
and now you have lots of beautifully cut vegetables
and then now i'm just cutting the tofu into a good size
and then now we can begin cooking the stir fry
again this is very easy
you're basically just pan frying everything
heating everything up
first i spread out some olive oil
then i placed the tofu in a nice single layer
i let the tofu sit for a few minutes
and then i lift one piece to see if it browned a bit
if it does brown then i flip it over
keep your eye on the tofu, do not burn them
and then take them off the pan and let them rest
as for all the vegetables
i kind of cook them all the same way
i just pan fry them with some olive oil
and then i put a little bit of garlic salt (and pepper)
not too much garlic salt and pepper
because we are going to put a soyaki sauce in the end
which has a lot of sodium
you guys have to be careful
i cook all the vegetables separately so nothing turns soggy or overcooked
by the way if you see me walking back and forth
that's me playing with the dogs
and watching run bts on the tv
and then finally we're going to cook everything one last time
but altogether
all the veggies all the tofu
i'm adding some soyaki sauce
also make sure you're not allergic to anything by the way
and then just for a final kick i'm going to add red pepper flakes
and we're all done
i just felt like a cooking channel for a second
but this is one of my favorite things to make
i post about it on my instagram story a lot
and you guys always ask for a recipe
so i thought a voiceover was appropriate
but here we go after a lot of work
i'm finally going to try it
what do i think
oh yes that's a good good reaction
i love it
ten out of ten
that is it for this little mukbang i'm gonna go offscreen and eat my food
so as you can see i did my nighttime routine
i have my retainers on
and it is actually midnight
after dinner i got distracted
and watched a bunch of videos on youtube
they're all bts videos
was it productive? i think so
to me i feel like just doing something with your day is being productive
the smallest thing is something
and you shouldn't think the day is wasted
if you didn't do something super life changing
or SUPER productive
i think going out for a walk
or going to get groceries
cooking yourself something nice
anything like that is being productive
as long as you're taking care of yourself
and others of course, you know
just being a kind decent person
i think that is being productive
but i honestly think i did a lot
i took care of a lot of things
my room is beautifully clean
i am nice and clean
i just showered and all that
i did say i was gonna fold my laundry but
that can wait for another day
i'm not staying up til 12:30 or 1 am to do it
i don't think that's being productive
i think that is wasting the time that i could be sleeping
and taking care of my health
but anyway that is it for this productive day in my life
it is so hard to talk so i'm gonna end it here
i have a whole frickin retainer in my mouth
i forgot to wear my retainer last night so
my teeth are going through it
thank you for joining me on this day
and i will see you in my next video
bring it in and goodnight my friends :)
